Clayton Geneva Camp Ground began as a retreat for our family since the 70's.

Judy was born in a little cabin just down the road. Judy & Don along with many family members have made cherished memories here over the years. We want to share its beauty with you and your family.
Please consider, Clayton Geneva is a primitive campground, gravel drives and left as natural as possible. This is not a sculpted campsite or a concrete campground. The primitive area is as such, gravel, grass, sand terrain accessible by a one lane gravel drive that leads over the hill and around the cliff to the riverbank. This drive is absolutely passable however is left bumpy to keep traffic at a safe speed as pedestrians also walk the drive. It is passable by any vehicle as long as the vehicle is not overloaded beyond its ability and/or has an extremely low profile.
Any area that is not an actual campsite is left to nature, not manicured, trimmed or sculpted. As you’ll find all the sites are clear please don’t expect micromanaging of wild growth of our native plants in areas around the sites as we reserve those areas for the wildlife to enjoy.
Please consider all the above mentioned details, primitive campsites are not for everyone and that’s ok.

We really enjoyed our time at Camp David! The Cumberland Plateau is a beautiful place and this property is a great home base for exploring—or just staying put and relaxing. It had all the amenities we needed to be comfortable while still "roughing it." It wasn't quite as private as we'd expected based on photos, but we enjoyed getting to know the hospitable hosts and really enjoyed our stay. Definitely recommend!

We had a very relaxing and peaceful five-night stay at Patrick’s Point River Camp in our 21’ camper. This is a huge property on the Cumberland River in southeast Kentucky. They offer everything from remote primitive tent camping to FHU RV sites. Our Premium RV site on the river could benefit from more gravel but was located under shade mere steps away from the shower house. Access to the campground could be challenging for an inexperienced driver pulling a car behind an 45’ Class A, but the road in was fine for us pulling a small trailer. Bathroom and shower facilities were clean and had good hot water and water pressure. The real reason we’ll be back was the hosts Patrick and Angelica. We have never been made to feel so welcomed in the five years we’ve been camping. They have mastered the perfect blend of providing excellent service and giving their guests space. Eager to offer recommendations for adventures or eating establishments, we were treated like family. We highly recommend Patrick’s Point River Camp!

Love this quiet, secluded campsite! Perfect if you want to unplug. Patrick met me at check in, was really friendly, and helped me bring some things down to the site.

Amazing spot! Amazing view! Amazing people! I spent the night in the River Shed as a solo trip to see how my dog did camping. It was a great set up, felt like home. Costa Rican breakfast is not to be skipped!

Great campground and awesome host. This campground is an awesome find. We loved the river side primitive camp sites. Just what we needed to Unplug and get away.
If you are running the Kentucky Adventure Tour. This awesome place is right off the route!
We will definitely be back!
Thanks Again.

Amber's property was a breath of fresh air! Taking a break with my cat Sparkie at her campsite was just what we needed along our travels. My own personal camp site was delightful and fully equipped with picnic tables, a relaxing swing chair, and a perfect little hideout between the trees. It was such a nice surprise that she offers a fully equipped bathroom and hot shower. Also she recommended I take a walk by the river even though my campsite was not by the river which made for a lovely evening stroll. Amber is warm and welcoming and her property is peaceful and beautiful. Thank you for your Hospitality Amber!
