Very nice small park. Even with the slightly rolling grounds, someone knew how to run a bulldozer. Nice large "level" sites. All have electric except a few by the beach. All the electric one also have a water hook up. The place flooded out about 5 years ago, so the whole place was-built. The showerhouse is top notch. It's location is about 15 minutes north of Mammoth Caves National Park. The only negative are the roads to the park are rather narrow, especially coming in from the north. The lake was like bath water even being mid-June...5 star rating...

Nolin Lake State Park offers generous, well-laid-out campsites—large gravel pads, level spots and room for big rigs—many with trails or quick paths to the lake, beach and boat ramp. Campground sits in mixed/pine woods with pleasant hiking, views and good stargazing. Bathhouses are reported clean with reliable hot showers and laundry; staff are friendly and a small park store sells basics. Management enforces a strict no-setup-on-grass rule, and traffic is usually light, though occasional event noise or noisy groups is possible. Some visitors noted spigot water tasted off, so bring drinking water just in case.
