Nestled along the Green River in the heart of Big Woods, Dennison Ferry Campground offers a retreat where the pace slows and the stars come out early.
"A hidden gem on the Green River"
Since 1947, Dennison Ferry Campground has welcomed travelers seeking something the modern world rarely offers — real stillness. Set on the banks of the Green River, our campground sits within the rolling Big Woods of south-central Kentucky, where canopy cover turns midday into amber twilight.
Whether you arrive with a tent, an RV, or a cabin full of memories to make, you'll find that the river sets the rhythm here. Mornings begin with mist rising off the water. Evenings belong to cicadas and crackling firelight. There is no rush.
From shaded riverfront tent spots to full-hookup RV pads, every site at Dennison Ferry is placed with one priority: your view should be of the trees, the water, or the sky.
Shaded by mature oaks and hickories, these sites offer natural privacy and a cool canopy all summer long. Fire ring and picnic table included.
