My Old Kentucky Home State Park

This is a smaller campground in the middle of Bardstown. There were no entrance or vehicle fees for camping in this State Park, however it is not really near the historic buildings of My Old Kentucky Home. The sites are a bit small and close together, and we picked one rated as a "Severe" grade and we couldn't get as level as we prefer. There are free showers, although water smells a little sulphur-y. The fees seem to vary depending on the month or if it is a weekend, but we got a cheaper than posted rate booking online with a AAA discount.
There was a small, older playground, however areas were roped off due to yellow jacket nests. The park was mostly booked on a mid-September weekend, with mostly out-of-staters. Bardstown is a great place to tour Bourbon distilleries and has a very cute historic downtown with nice shopping. We enjoyed our visit here.

Although many of the sites are not level and the utilities are shared, I really enjoyed my stay at this campground in September 2019. In sight 24 we were able to get level without even using blocks or levelers. however, the utility pole between our site and the other was extremely far and we barely were able to connect. That is the case for many of the sites here, but the ones closer to the bath house seem to be better from that respect. Speaking of the bath house, it was very clean and had good water pressure for showering.

There is a dog park within walking distanceas well as the Heaven Hill distillery. The State Park golf course is connected to the campground, so you can easily hit the links from here too.

This campground is conveniently located near Bardstown. The campground itself is surrounded by a golf course, but it is completely wooded so you really can't see the golf course much. Unfortunately all the sites long enough for our 34 ft MH were extremely unlevel. Like us, all the big rigs in the park had one set of their jacks fully extended trying to get as level as possible.

Verizon and AT&T service were very good. Verizon - 23+Mbps DL/ 10+ Mbps UL
AT&T - 15+ Mbps DL/2+ Mbps UL

We stopped here randomly for one night in mid March to break up a long drive. The ranger had left already but there was a very friendly man in the golf shop who said he wasn’t technically the person who dealt with reservations but could charge us the off season rate of $16/night. I think he could sense that we were desperate for a place to sleep and we really appreciated his help. The park was small but fine. As another poster mentioned, some hookups are placed in odd spots, like really far from the nearest campsite. Not all sites are level, maybe half were good. When we arrived there was barely anyone else around so we had our pick. The bathrooms were clean, shower was warm. I felt very grateful to get all the amentities for such a good price, but it was off season so I know the price is usually higher. It’s a good location if you’re doing the Bourbon Trail, very close to several Distilleries.

We stayed at this campground from Nov 3rd - 6th 2018 because of it's convenient location to most of the bourbon distilleries. Yes most of the sites are not level and you'll be challenged in your leveling abilities. Yes some of the electric and water connections are in odd locations. So make sure you have extra electric cord and water hose. But if you've camped more than once then you should have those items anyway. We did not use the restrooms or showers so I can't comment on them. All though we did notice staff cleaning them on a daily basis. Site 22 was semi level and only 10' from electric and water connections. We will definitely stay here again.

The campground was nice, being an island of tree-shaded, comfortably spaced sites, hidden in the middle of the golf course. There are a half dozen full hookups with the rest of the 39 sites being water and electric with a dump station available. The pull through sites aren't really pull through; however, we had no problem getting our 33' TT into the site. Some sites can be challenging with the placement of the trees. The restrooms and showers we well kept.

It is a very small campground right off the golf course. Site 16 backs up to the golf course, it is a short pad. We have a 16’ rig so we can get pretty much anywhere but it is tight. The master class As did it though as did some big trailers. The electric and water are spaced evenly between sites so you need extra long hoses and cords. Our site did have sewer but only 5 do. There is a bath house it was fine, older but clean. The grounds are very clean. There is some run off in areas but our site was fine. We had a couple of good rains while here. We liked it for its location to the distilleries and historical sites.
Bardstown is a quaint little town.

Wow, almost none of the pads here are level. I don't think I've seen a camground as far off level as I have seen here. We're staying here for 6 nights and the campground is your typical state park. It's very small and some spots are difficult to get into. Our 30' airstream couldn't fit into the original spot we booked but luckily, spot 32 was available for the entire 6 nights we are here so we were able to switch.

I can't speak about the distilleries yet as we just got here but plan on taking full advantage of the bourbon tastings nearby. One distillery, Heaven Hill, is within walking distance and Willett distillery is less than 2 miles away.

Good signal without a booster for Verizon, T-Mobile, and AT&T.

I would only camp here again if we got a level spot....not too many of those around here. On reserve america, avoid the sites where driveway grade says SEVERE. I wasn't sure what that meant until we got here. Luckily we had enough leveling blocks.
