Started as a retirement experiment, Rockcastle Riverside is a story told of music and family. We have almost 200 acres of beautiful country surrounded by the Daniel Boone National Forest in Rockcastle County. With a mile of river to swim, kayak, and fish and enchanted forest trails to hike, climb, or play, we have all of the best Kentucky has to offer! We have more established sites with fire rings, or you can find a place off the beaten path for more privacy, if you choose. The riverside is perfect for hammock camping, too. We love music and often host bands on the weekends. We rent kayaks and canoes on site, as well. While there are almost 200 acres to escape into, on any fine night, the stage sits wit a drum kit and the will to make music within the Daniel Boone National Forest. Come play, come get away....we have it ALL! We have a little of something for everyone!

Rockcastle Riverside Primitive Camp

Quiet and peaceful sitting next to the river in our tent. We enjoyed a warm fire while relaxing. Price was fair and owner was friendly. We recently stayed at another camp not far away and there were SxS and 4 wheelers riding around all night making in hard to sleep. At Rockcastle we had no issues and were able to relax!

Rockcastle Riverside Primitive Camp

I love this place! We come every year for Moonshiner's Ball, and couldn't ask for a better experience. You can go primitive with either tent or RV, or use the RV hookups. The staff is friendly and helpful, there is a well-stocked general store for things you might have forgotten, and the facilities are clean. It's a great venue for getting back to nature, just of I-75.

RV Site 19

This was the perfect spot for all campers-we had some with a camper, some tent camping and truck camping! The river was beautiful and everything was well maintained. The trails nearby were good for all level of hikers and absolutely gorgeous! We met several lovely kind people as well in our adventure. Definitely planning on coming back.

RV Site 19

Site 19 was at the end of the land next to a small river. The bathroom was clean and they had a small camp store. Easy to find.
