With access to the Cumberland River, Summer Shoals Retreat serves campers seeking water activities and riverside camping in southeastern Kentucky. This private campground sits on rolling pasture along the riverbank, accommodating RVs up to 10 feet and offering multiple access options including boat-in, drive-in, hike-in, and walk-in sites.
The forested terrain provides drinking water, restrooms, showers, and allows campfires and pets. Firewood is available on-site. For those wanting more amenities, Patrick's Point River Camp offers additional facilities just north of the area.
