Site 24 is our favorite Site at Lock A. One of the first sites to be reserved. Feel lucky any time we can get it. Staff and Rangers were great.

We had a reservation (Site 24) but ran into our first (and hopefully last) WHERE DID THAT COME FROM???? tornado/ hail as we arrived from the south. Called the campground to check on weather. CONNIE is THE most amazing camp host. She not only waited to be certain we arrived safely (.pretty steep incline but our 36 gas powered Tiffin WITH a TOAD, made it just fine) and escorted us to our riverside site, is our chocolate labs new BFF, and was SUCH a friendly face to arrive and see at checkin. I cannot imagine how frazzled we looked after that storm. It was frightening and I dont scare easily.Sadly, we only spent one night enroute to Michigan but we would ABSOLUTELY return. The river on our loop was high and saw zero alligators!

Great small campground . We have camped here for a number of years and still are awestruck by the barge traffic and the skill of the boat crews. Kayaking is very good with little boat traffic and lots of coves and backwater to explore. Rails to trails offer shady biking and hiking. The paved riverbank sites are our favorites , lots of shade no quaterdown gravel which is a huge pain when wet. Happy to note some of our other favorite campgrounds are now using a larger gravel mix. We camp here twice each season.

We always feel very welcomed here and come here often. The campground is clean, most sites are concrete and spacious. Nice hiking trials and miles of level ground for cycling along the river. We love it here!

We LOVE Lock A and always look for opportunities to visit. Our favorite site is 24, on the end of the row that gives our dogs a nice place to play and explore. The sites are paved, and sit right on the Cumberland River. Watching the barge traffic go by, day and night, is nice. So much to do in the area; just as nice to sit and relax. One of our most favorite campgrounds!
