For Charlestown State Park: First - we were in site #31 which is 50amp "electric only" - there is a plaque inside the power pedestal that states not to draw any more than 40 amps- MAKE NO SENSE! Second - site is very unlevel from front to back, tongue of trailer was completely on the ground to get trailer level front to back. Third - asphalt paved site was just one foot wider than trailer on each side - so you had to walk through mud to access RV steps. Fourth - no one to contact after office hours (campground lost power). Fifth - GET A RECEIPT IF PAYING CASH - we prepaid the $7 gate fee for our two daughters to come visit later in the day - somehow that cash just disappeared. Sixth - we paid for three night stay, however there was power outage on third day and no one who worked for DNR had any info so we left to stay at a Harvest Host. Seventh - out of the several DNR people I spoke with there was only one who acted like they wanted to be there, all the others acted like they were upset that they were working and really did not want to be there, pitiful. Overall not a good experience, many other campgrounds we could have stayed at, we will not be back.

For Charlestown State Park: Only stayed one night, but we may go back to do some of the trails. The place is very large but very well maintained. Staff were very nice. You have to pay for park entry in addition to the camp fees. Kind of a hidden add-on.

For Charlestown State Park: This place is huge. Spots are very spacious. Bath houses were spotless. We stayed on the full hook up loop. It is secluded, and quite. Great place to unwind.

For Charlestown State Park: Loved our overnight at Charlestown State Park. This place is huge. Keep that in mind. The sites are asphalt and level. The lots are big and feature a picnic table and fire ring. There are paved walkways to the nice playground and to the bath house. The back of each lot is a thick brush which adds to the sense of privacy. The water was not turned on for the season yet but there was a water filling station. Our 30 amp service was strong. Remember that this is a big state park and you have distance between you and some of the camp features. We thought we would take a look at the Ohio River which borders the park. It was probably a 4 mile drive to get there. This is a great place to land and relax and ride bikes but may not be an easy walk to various attractions within the park. We weren't able to see the fossil dig but hope to return to do so. The town of nearby Charleston has many services and restaurants. We will gladly stay here again. $25.

For Charlestown State Park: Stayed in electric only site with 40' class A for 2 weeks. Low hanging tree's where impossible to get around. Some sites only have an 8' clearance. Most sites are out of level front to back. Out door carpeting used buy campers have left mud on the door side of many sites although the campground is starting to put down stone because of this. Bathroom showers are timed push button for the water. Staff and campers where nice. I would stay again but I know now what sites to stay in.

For Charlestown State Park: Located just north of Louisville Kentucky, this was a great two days stop between segments of my trip. The campsites were nice with full hook ups. They were moderately spaced apart and I didn’t feel crowded. Level pads, the hookups, a fire pit and picnic table were accessible and conveniently located. I was on #122 in the Mulberry loop. I did notice some of the sewer hook ups on a few sites seem to be located uphill from the parking pads. Several of the larger rigs really had to block up there hoses. You’ll need to pay the park admission fee before you get to the campground. I think it was only nine dollars for out-of-state residents. Once in the main entrance, make a right and go past the park office sign directly to the campground. Turn into the campground is located on your left. For those of you working remotely, it was all right. AT&T coverage was sufficient to power my hotspot. There is no Wi-Fi available there. I had to cut my trip short in return home due to hurricane either in the reins. I didn’t have the chance to explore the park or the walking trails. From what I saw it was a very nice, well-kept in large State Park
