and approximately 30-miles northwest of Carr Creek Lake. The Dam site is on the Middle Fork Kentucky River, a tributary of the Ohio River, 43.3 miles above the point where it flows into the North Fork of the Kentucky River. The project is accessible via Kentucky State and Federal highway systems. Interstate-75 passes within 60-miles of the project and the Daniel Boone (Hal Rogers) Parkway passes within 10-miles of the southern portion of the project.

This area is a remote Class-A Campground / Day-use facility which typically receives moderate to heavy visitation from fishermen and families seeking a complete outdoor experience. Camping opportunities consists of 49 developed campsites, 28 of which have electrical and water hook-ups. Four campsites are tent only primitive walk-in sites. Two campsites are group campsites. One campsite is universally accessible. The campground also offers 10 undeveloped and four developed overflow campsites during peak times. Fifteen boat-in campsites are also included within the Buckhorn Campground area. This is a separate facility which is located on the shoreline of Buckhorn Lake and is accessible only by boat to the general public; however a gated Corps emergency service entrance road is located within 1.75 mi. of the Buckhorn Campground Gatehouse. An entrance control station is also located at the entrance of the Buckhorn Campground. Points of interest to the visitor include a large day use recreational area complete with modern playground equipment, six individual picnic areas, a small nature trail, and excellent shoreline fishing opportunities on the Middle Fork of the Kentucky River near the Buckhorn Dam stilling basin area. The Day-Use Recreational Area includes horseshoe pits, a basketball court, volleyball, flush toilet facilities and four picnic shelters, three of which are reservable and are universally accessible. The campground area includes a modern showerhouse/flush toilet facility, vending area, wood shed, laundry building, and horseshoe pits. The Buckhorn Dam overlook, boat ramp, courtesy dock, and Stillhouse Branch Nature Trail area are also located in this vicinity.

Trace Branch Campground / Day Use Recreation Area Location: Trace Branch Recreation Area is located just north of the city of Hyden, Kentucky in Leslie County. It receives low to moderate visitation from fishermen and families who are interested in a secluded, quiet location. Points of interest to the visitor include a large day use recreational area complete with playground and picnic areas, boat ramp, courtesy dock, horseshoe pits, basketball court, flush toilet facilities, and a reservable picnic shelter with water and electricity.

The area also has 27 campsites. Each campsite is complete with water and electric hook-ups, picnic table, grill, and lantern holder. A shower house and three trash receptacle stations are conveniently situated throughout the campground.
