The Ky Horsepark was one of the nicest campgrounds in Kentucky with amenities like none of the others. But over the last 2 years they have concentrated on keeping campers out of the Horsepark itself. They have also placed fencing in places that don't necessarily need to be there limiting on foot activity in the campground. Side x Sides tear up parts of the primitive area ( last time visited), although they plainly state they are not allowed. They should mark off an area just for side by side activity if going to allow in campground and park.
The campsites are muddy and need some work done. 3 to 4 inches of rain stands in some sites due to lack of maintenance. They just throw straw down and go on. They need to put gravel in the areas adjacent to the pads so you don't tread mud into your rig. Even outdoor rugs are messy if used in those sites. They need to sow some grass in some areas. They could add a small dog park or place doggy bag stations, one in each loop midway for campers with pets.
It is slowly not the nice place to camp that it once became in the early years around 2014 and later. Manager, although same for few years does not take an interest in making it clean, neat and nice as in earlier years. Also, their have been times when the host in semi private won't let others hook to the multiple water and electric hookups they are stationed at, limiting availability to at least 2 more camping parties.
They worry more about stopping good under age golf cart drivers than watching property destruction by other vehicles. They also do make a difference in the young horse patrons under age golf cart drivers. They drive freely, but camping patrons under age drivers do not.

This place is on one the best organized Kentucky State Park Campgrounds. The sites are clean and the entire campground is in excellent shape after last year's flood. The bathhouse are superb! The full service sites are also great, though they could use a few more of those. There arenwekend activities planned every weekend for campers April through November. The hiking trails are well located, the putt putt golf course is great! The Fort just up the road is a must see. The pool in the park just up the road is closed for season due to need repairs from the flood, I assume.
If you are looking for a fun filled, yet quiet and relaxing campground, this it is.
A must visit type of place!
