Miscellaneous

• Additional Info: ** The pool "lake" level at the Lake Cumberland is extremely low! We expect the lake level to remain extremely low the entire year of 2007. Due to lowerlake levels, Fishing Creek's launching ramp and swimming beach are unusable and lakeshore sites are not accessible by water nor do they have direct access to water; however, the campground will remain open. For more information about the lower lake levels, please visit the following website http://www.lrn.usace.army.mil/pao/issues/WOLcommo ** Reservations must be made at least 2 days in advance. 2 night minimum on weekends. 3 night minimum on holidays. Weekend and holiday fee premiums charged at this campground. Attendants are on duty and more information about this area may be obtained by calling (606) 679-5174.
