Natural Features

The campground is in close proximity to the lake and is less than a mile from the shoreline. Laurel River Lake boasts 5,600 acres of deep, clear water and 192 miles of cliff-lined shores. Bountiful hills and valleys create a beautiful backdrop for the lake area. The forest was named after Daniel Boone, a famous frontiersman and explorer who settled in Kentucky in the late 18th century.

Hikers, horseback riders and mountain bikers can trek more than 600 miles of road and trail in Daniel Boone National Forest.
