Paragon Dispersed Campground

Paragon Dispersed Camping Area offers 10 primitive campsites with fire rings and lantern posts directly on Cave Run Lake's calm waters, ideal for kayaking and non-motorized boating with easy vehicle access to the water's edge.

This free, first-come-first-served campground features pit toilets and seasonal trash collection, though visitors must bring their own water and be prepared for potential flooding when lake levels exceed 733 feet.

The narrow section of lake provides peaceful paddling conditions, and fishing is popular from the sites, making it suitable for both water sports enthusiasts and anglers seeking a rustic lakeside experience.
