About
Blue Licks Battlefield State Resort Park Campground is located in Robertson County, Kentucky, on the historic grounds where the last battle of the American Revolutionary War was fought in August 1782. The park preserves this significant battlefield while offering modern camping amenities in a scenic setting along the Licking River. The campground features 55 total sites: 49 standard electric sites equipped with water and 30-amp electric hookups, and 6 primitive tent-only sites. Sites are back-in only with maximum equipment lengths ranging from 32 to 54 feet. A central service building provides flush restrooms and showers, and an RV dump station is available. Extension cords up to 50 feet may be needed for electrical hookups, and campers should bring additional water hoses as connections may require up to 50 feet of hose. Beyond camping, the park offers a museum documenting the battle's history, hiking trails, a playground, volleyball courts, miniature golf, picnic facilities, and a boat ramp on the Licking River. The park also features a lodge and cottages for those seeking indoor accommodations.
