Kentucky Dam State Park Airport is in Calvert City, Kentucky. The field elevation is 350.8 ft MSL. It has one runway. Runway 10/28 is 3,997 ft long with asphalt pavement. The airport is not towered. CTAF and UNICOM are both 123.0. No ILS approaches are published here.

Pattern altitude is not published. Use 1,000 ft AGL as the standard light-piston pattern reference unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. The published remarks call out deer and geese on and near the airport. That matters here. Keep a sharp scan on departure and in the pattern. Runway end identifier lights are active on both ends. PAPI is installed on 10 and 28. Medium intensity runway lights are on runway 10/28 and are controlled by CTAF.

There are no on-field FBOs listed, so plan ahead for services before you go. For clearance delivery, Memphis ARTCC is the published contact. If you are arriving IFR or need current airport details, check the current FAA Chart Supplement or call the airport operator directly before flight. The field sits in a low-elevation part of western Kentucky, so terrain is not the main issue. Wildlife and runway lighting setup are the bigger items to brief.
