I've always loved staying here. Beautiful place. Stayed in cabins this time. You need to provide your own linen and towels but also paper towels, dish rag and towel. Couldn't get my Hotspot to connect to tv since there is no cable, wifi, or satellite so we had no tv. Tried for 3 days and nothing. The cabins are nice but services are lacking. Will choose airbnb closer to town next time. I hate it because I used to stay here alot and loved it.

We stayed at Camp Carlson for a month middle of May to middle of June. Beautiful property, well kept, clean and we enjoyed long walks around the entire property. Plenty of wild life to see and watch around the entire property. There is a large lake if you like to fish, you need to get a license and we saw some nice catches being carried home.

Fort Knox's Camp Carlson For a military RV park I would consider it average. Cost is $30/night for back-in & $35/night for pull-throughs. Reservations are recommended, and you can only reserve during office hours, which is Mon-Friday 9a-5p and Sat & Sun 9-Noon. When you reserve, be sure to let them know if you need the sewer dump access toward the back or middle/front of your camper or RV as the accesses on this site are either located toward the back of the site or smack on the middle of the site. We had to go back to the office & ask for a site change because of this. Pros: * It's in a beautiful area on Fort Knox base property designated specifically as a "recreation area" - so not only do they allow RVs, but they allow tent campers & have cabins to rent, as well. They also have

No internet, so make sure you have starlink, or something comparable... This campground was very clean... And unlike other military campgrounds, they do mow the lawn, and you're not required to A lot of the washers did not work Their sewage system, it's way off on measurement... We literally had to pull up to the road in order for it us to hook up our sewage pipe... And we extended that out extremely, and that was with too extensions... Personnel, that work there are very, very nice... Some of the most respectful people i've encountered... Camp is off base, and it's recreational area of fort.Knox It seems secured... No problems... I never did see MP patrol the area, but who knows they may do it after I went to bed We will come back next year when we visit friends in the area

I stayed at the full hookup RV site and very much enjoyed my stay. Everything was easy to access, clean and worked properly. I plan to stay again. I've included pictures of the hookup side bc people rarely show that.
