Kentucky Horse Park Campground

The Kentucky Horse Park and Campground is located in beautiful Lexington Kentucky. Lexington is famous for its rolling hills and beautiful horse farms. This campground is situated in the middle of it all! Offering 260 sites with water and electric. They have a large playground, basketball courts and an Olympic sized pool. This place is huge!

We stay here in June for just one night passing through on our way to Canada. We stayed here on site #10 in our pop-up camper. The site was paved with grass separating the sites. There was no privacy between the sites. Our site backed up to a wooded area so at least we didn’t have anyone behind us. We had a picnic table and fire ring on our site.

We pre-registered prior to arrival so check-in was a breeze. The store here was well stocked and the staff was pleasant. Prices appeared to be reasonable and we indulged in some ice cream purchased from the store.

The roads throughout the campground were paved making biking riding an easy way to get around. In fact, I would recommend bringing your bikes if you plan on staying a few days. The bathroom, pool, horse park, playground, etc. can all be accessed via a bike.

Kentucky Horse Park 1 of 2 Bathrooms

There were only two bathhouses located at this campground but they were very large. However, from our site it was a bit of a walk to get to the closest bathroom. You enter/exit the pool through the bathrooms. This caused the bathrooms to be extremely wet. The floors were soaked the entire time we were here. Other then wet floors, the bathrooms were clean.

The pool was huge and kept clean. There were plenty of chairs surrounding the pool so it was easy to sit back, relax and watch my children enjoy themselves.

The Horse Park (which is right up the road) is an equine themed park. There is a museum, gift shop, restaurant, barns, dressage complex and so much more! You will pay an additional fee to get into this section. We did not visit but was told it was well worth it if you have a love for horses!

Highlights of this trip: Paved sites, large pool, proximity to the Horse Park, quite campground
