A hidden gem in Murray Kentucky! Our family was welcomed by Shauna & Ralph, who accompanied us to the spot late at night after a long day of driving. They were friendly, accommodating, and showed us where to set up our tents and access all the extras. Two ponds, an amazing saltwater pool, outdoor kitchen and bathroom made for quite a comfortable place to call home for two days. As we set up camp, we loved all the sights and sounds of nature….listening to the frogs and checking out the stars were our faves! Even at night, the heat and humidity in July were real, so the kids enjoyed a night swim in the lighted pool that was just the right temperature. In the light of the morning, the Flying D was even more glorious…..the horses, exploring the ponds by canoe, fishing, more swimming, and relaxing in the outdoor patio, it was a perfect day. Shauna & Ralph came to check on us and we ended up visiting for a while, learning about their local favorite places to eat. Martha’s Restaurant is a must…..down home cooking, extremely reasonable prices, and very hospitable. Murray’s Donuts were perfect for a quick breakfast on a travel day.
The accommodations were great here….shower with hot water, bathroom with sink and toilet. Paper towels, toilet paper and hand soap were provided, but bring your own towels :) The kitchen space…..a great full size refrigerator/freezer, coffee maker, microwave, and small propane countertop grill.
Book it, you will be so glad you did! It’s an amazing find!
