Enjoy it all on over 150 acres of private land. Setup camp at a freshly mowed site then explore all that this beautiful historic property offers. Venture into the forest and seek out a view atop a mountain, then take in the abundant wildlife along the riverfront! Or, take a 2 mile hike along the abandoned railroad track to a tunnel carved right into the rock. This is an old homestead site located in Heidelberg, KY on the Kentucky River, just 20 minutes from the Red River Gorge Geological Area. From the riverbank, the property slopes upward across several fields and up a mountain of densely populated trees. There is a boat ramp just across the blue bridge that offers easy river access for boats, kayaks, and canoes. This spot has it all! Camp, kayak, fish, hike, relax and enjoy some of the best scenery Kentucky has to offer!

This was such a remote and private space to camp. Perfect for a family of boys!

Beautiful, peaceful property. The host was beyond accommodating and made sure we had a site with river access for the kayak. Highly recommend!

This was my first time camping alone, and Jonathan really helped me out. He came and met me as wondering around the property, helped me pick a spot and was very nice. The property itself is beautiful, even though I only got to see a small corner of it. I’ll do more exploring the next time I stay. Definitely recommend.

Overall, this spot was awesome. I find comfort in hearing dogs barking, so the neighbor's dogs didn't bother me but just a heads up for anyone who wants total quiet! Everything was easy to find & Johnathan was great! Only thing, our last night, we saw someone with a headlamp walk through the field and up the hill around 11pm. They turned their headlamp off when they saw us, but we never saw them leave. Definitely a little spooky and we slept in the car to be safe. Other than that incident, the site was private and beautiful.

This is a cute spot for camping, Jonathan was very helpful and kind, he provided us firewood and even a lighter to start the fire because ours broke.
