Turkey Fork

Turkey Fork is a popular recreation destination offering premier fishing, camping, picnicking and watersports activities, such as swimming and water skiing. It has two developed campgrounds, a boat ramp and floating dock, two swimming areas, three bathhouses and a 240-acre lake stocked with bass, crappie and bluegill. Turkey Fork’s 20 RV campsites have picnic tables, grills, water and electrical hookups. A dump station is located within the campground loop. Day use visitors will find secluded picnicking sites located near the beach. A .75-mile hiking trail connects the day use area to the camping area.
