CAMPING AREAS & LAKE ACCESS AREAS
Shoreline Comforts. Got a boat? Need to camp? Spend the night at one of our Lake Access Areas!
Land Between The Lakes has five fee lake access areas and 16 camping areas offering year-round lakeside camping. Anyone is welcome to use these areas, but because of the services available, they are ideal for those enjoying an overnight fishing trip or extended boat trip.
Lake Access Areas offer some basic amenities like campsites, picnic tables, grills, chemical toilets, drinking water, trash pickup and boat ramps. You can find a Lake Access Area on the shores of either Kentucky or Barkley Lake at selected points on the LBL peninsula. They are: Birmingham Ferry/Smith Bay, Cravens Bay, Fenton, Gatlin Point and Rushing Creek Campground.
Rushing Creek Campground on Kentucky Lake, offers additional amenities; 40 basic campsites capable of handling an RV or tent,
plus restrooms and showers, picnic pavilions, a multi-purpose play court,
and playground equipment. A boat ramp is available at Jones Creek.
Camping Areas are more basic: they have boat ramps and may have campsites, picnic tables and grills. There is no trash pick-up or other services in these areas.
A fee is required to use Camping Areas in LBL.
