Dad's Bluegrass Campground

7 ReviewsAdd Review
SUMMARY PRESENTED BYT-Mobile

Pull-through sites and full hookups make Dad's Bluegrass Campground a practical stop for RV travelers passing through Franklin, Kentucky, particularly those running the I-65 corridor between Nashville and Louisville. All sites are pull-through, which simplifies arrival and departure for larger rigs. The campground accommodates RVs up to 50 feet with electric, water, and sewer hookups, and reservations are available for those who want to lock in a spot.

The facility includes modern, clean restrooms and showers, a pool, playground, basketball court, and a pavilion. Inside, campers will find a lounge area with a TV, DVDs, and a book exchange, along with a laundry room. The owner has a hands-on presence and multiple reviewers note his attentiveness, including help with RV maneuvering. One reviewer mentions that a water hookup sat low to the ground and leaked, requiring a full 25-foot hose to reach, so arriving with extra hose length is worth considering. Mike F. sums it up as having "very modern and clean" shower and restroom facilities, and notes that all lots are pull-through.

The campground sits adjacent to a Pilot/Flying J truck stop, which creates some ambient activity but also provides convenient fuel access on the way out. The approach requires attention: stay to the right to avoid accidentally turning into the truck stop entrance. For camping near Franklin, this is one of the more full-service options in the immediate area. Pets are allowed, and the nightly rate runs $30 to $45 depending on site type.

Many guests appreciated the helpful owner and well-maintained facilities including clean restrooms and pull-through sites. The campground offers good amenities like a pool and playground while staying surprisingly quiet despite its highway location.

Extremely nice folks.

Truly the nicest folks I have met at campground so far. All lots are pull through. They have a huge pavilion for events, nice pool, showers, and very clean restrooms.

Very nice place right off the highway

While visiting family in Scottsville we were in need of a close by RV park for our 40’ rig. This was the perfect spot for us. With plenty of pull through sites we were able to pick from (since we came early due to forgetting the time change!) The park is very well maintained, the owner was very accommodating and helpful, especially since we had to add an extra night last minute! There is a beautiful pool, playground and basketball court for kids! The place is also pet friendly. There was a cute area inside with a TV, dvds, and books to read or take one and leave one. Also a laundry area inside. Definitely recommend staying here if you’re in the area! It’s also fairly close to Nashville and bowling green!

Right off the interstate

It’s an easy right off the interstate place. Plenty of TT friendly gas stations around it. Good for an overnight when passing though. My site was slightly uphill where I had to park to reach the water hookup. The water hookup is very close to the ground and leaked for me. Made it very hard to connect the hose and pressure regulator. Used all of my 25 foot hose to reach my connection. Good for a short overnight, but wouldn’t stay more than that.

Convenient

Very nice Campground . Easy pull through seats, and shower and toilet facilities are very modern and clean. We didn’t find the highway noise to be too big of a deal.

Great Campground, Quiet, and Friendly

Spent Thanksgiving here as a way to just have a quiet relaxing time.

A lot of people pull in for the night since it's right off the highway and behind a Pilot/Flying J, but it was still quiet.

Got to chat at length with the owner and you can tell he cares about the property.

Will stay again when I'm in the area.

Pleasant-N-Easy

This was a pleasant and easy  full service rv park to enjoy a day of peace off the road + great overnighter.  People were very nice and attentive with lots of RV manipulation help.  No Bluegrass when we were there in the spring.  Still this is a nice park to stay in on the way north.

Watch the approach since you could head into the truck stop - stay to the right and you will be ok.  I used the truck stop to fill up on the way out and it was OK. Dad's was a good stop for the night but our expectations were more than delivered since no bluegrass - even music would have been ok - so disappointed.

It is really easy in-out if you pay attention.  Enjoy.
