Fees
Kentucky State Parks (kentuckystateparks.reserveamerica.com, contractCode KY) gates its per-night campsite rates behind an interactive date-search booking flow - no static per-night rate is published on either the reservation vendor's own pages or parks.ky.gov. Statewide campground regulations confirmed live via parks.ky.gov's own /info/things-to-know/campground-regulations page: 14-night maximum stay (absent a park-manager waiver for emergency or business necessity); quiet hours begin at 11:00 pm (no visitors after 11:00 pm); no more than 2 vehicles (including RVs) per campsite; golf cart permits available at select parks for $25/week or $100/year (Apr 1-Oct 31). Online cancellations made before each park's own deadline (usually 48-72 hours prior) are refunded minus a small cancellation fee, generally processed within 7-10 business days. Pets are allowed at Kentucky State Parks campgrounds under a real, statewide, campground-specific policy confirmed live via parks.ky.gov's own /info/things-to-know/campground-regulations page: "A pet shall: Be kept on a leash or otherwise restrained at all times; Have current inoculations for rabies as prescribed by the campers' state of residence; and Not be tied to trees or shrubs." (This is the campground regulation, not a lodge-room pet policy, which can differ at Kentucky's Resort Parks.)
