Best RV Parks & Resorts near Russellville, KY

RV parks near Russellville include Russellville RV Park with 28 sites and 50/30 amp electric hookups, and Hopewell RV Park providing 20 sites with full hookups and big rig access. Western Kentucky RV Park in Central City offers 48 sites with both 50 and 30 amp service, sewer connections and level gravel pads. "This is a typical KOA park but in an awesome area. The only downside is the traffic noise from the highway. The sites were level and clear of obstacles," noted one camper about Bowling Green KOA located about 30 miles east. Most parks in the area feature pull-through sites with adequate spacing for slideouts, though back-in sites are common at state parks where maneuvering can be more challenging.

Seasonal considerations affect availability throughout the region, with many private RV parks operating year-round while state parks may reduce services during winter months. The dump station at Barren River Tailwater is positioned directly behind the bathhouse, causing odor issues during busy checkout periods according to visitor reports. Cell service varies significantly across the area - parks closer to interstates typically offer reliable connectivity, while those in more rural settings may provide limited reception. Pet policies are generally accommodating, with designated dog parks available at several locations including Bowling Green KOA, which features agility equipment. Propane fill service is limited, requiring advance planning for longer stays, especially during colder months when heating demands increase.

    They have 30/50amp full service hookups and Cabins."

    "Not super impressed with the grounds and the noise level, but everything else is great. The highway is really noisy, and the spot we got was full of really harsh gravel and rocks."

    Grand Ole RV Resort & Market

    Peaceful, Well-Run RV Park with Great Location

    We really enjoyed our stay at The Grand O RV Resort! The staff was super friendly and helpful from the moment we arrived. A man even led us to our site in a golf cart and helped my fiancé back in and park our trailer, which was a huge help.

    The campground had a small store with supplies, a restaurant with a menu available (though we cooked our own food), and live music each night while we were there during the summer — a nice touch! There’s a train that passes by on the nearby track a couple of times a day, but it was never super early or late and didn’t bother us at all.

    We stayed in the center of the park, which didn’t have much shade, but the outer edge sites seemed more wooded. The roads and campsites are made of small pebbles, which made it easy to drive and back in. It was overall very quiet, and the location is great — just off the interstate, about 10 miles north of Nashville, and roughly 45 minutes from Bowling Green. We visited the National Corvette Museum and Lost River Cave while we were there.

    Our site had full hookups (water, sewer, and electric). The bathhouse was clean, air-conditioned, and accessed with a key code — two toilet stalls and three showers for women, all very well maintained. We didn’t use the laundry facility (if there was one), but the Wi-Fi was decent, and T-Mobile cell service worked well, even for using our hotspot. It’s a pet-friendly park (though we didn’t bring pets), and while there’s no pool or playground, there were some nice wooden swings to enjoy.

    They also have firewood for sale and a propane filling station on site. Overall, we had a great stay and would definitely recommend The Grand O to anyone looking for a quiet, clean, and well-located RV park near Nashville!

    Nashville KOA Resort

    Nashville KOA is a great place to stay when visiting the Music City.

    The campground has a variety of sites from deluxe paved pull through with patios to back-in full hookups to tent sites. We stayed in the back-in sites side of the campground. The sites were close together(but not on-top of each other) and many were long enough to handle most average sized rigs. These sites were gravel with grass between, which was well maintained. 50& 30 amp service available. Very flat with minimal leveling needed. The wifi was spotty when the campground was full on the weekends. 

    The bathhouses have individual shower access with separate toilet facilities. These were clean and well maintained. The entire campground was very well maintained and landscaped beautifully, which created a welcoming feeling. 

    There are numerous amenities: pool, hot tub, playground, pickle ball, corn hole, etc. Live music is offered at the pool area a couple nights a week in addition to movies. The camp store is small, with limited selection, but it is attached to a nice size indoor rec room and restaurant/snack bar. A Camping World Store is also right next door to the campground, which is very convenient. 

    A shuttle service is offered daily from 10:00AM-1:30AM between the KOA and downtown Nashville at the Country Music Hall of Fame. The cost is$10 round trip per person. The staff were very friendly and willing to help with any issues and questions. We enjoyed our stay and found the price($68) reasonable for the great location and amenities offered.

    Bowling Green KOA

    Standard KOA/Awesome stay!

    This is a typical KOA park but in an awesome area. The only downside is the traffic noise from the highway. It was not audible inside the RV so it wasn’t enough to disturb sleep.

    The park has nice long pull through spaces, and quite a few long term residents of the park. They have a very nice dog park with obstacles for them in a central location to be accessed by everyone.

    The sites were level and clear of obstacles. They left plenty of space for vehicles and rigs. We had a pull through patio and the space had a giant beautiful tree that was very helpful in the heat.

    Equipment is well maintained at this location! Cell service for AT&T and TMobile we’re both excellent.

    Two Rivers Campground

    Nice RV park for visiting Nashville

    Helpful staff, gravel level sites with concrete pads that have picnic tables on them. Full hook ups. There is a private bus the staff will call that will come pick you up and take you to downtown and return for $10.00. I took the bus because parking is more expensive than the bus fee. I didn’t use the laundry or showers but they looked nice and clean. Great place to stay while visiting Nashville. They had live bands every night out by the pool area while we were here. Nice place for a private park. I would stay again. Camping world is right next door if you need anything. Back in and pull through sites.

    Two Rivers Campground

    Great CG in Nashville

    We spent two nights here (May 24-26, 2022). This is a nice, easy access CG with level pull through and back-in gravel sites in Nashville. It is located within a loop of the Cumberland River, between two RV dealer/repair facilities and surrounded by two RV CGs- it’s a busy area. There are a number of activities available: live music, swimming pool, recreation hall, playground and dog park. We did not make use of the laundry, bathrooms or showers. It is a great base camp to visit the Nashville (Grand Ole Opry) area. The WiFi was great as was cell phone reception. The cable TV worked well. We would stay here again.

    Nashville North

    City Outskirts campground

    Nice little spot, freeway right behind the park and can hear cars all day/night. Internet was down when we got here and cell signal is hit and miss on all 3 Carriers (Verizon, AT&T and T-mobile). Delivery of anything is challenging for the drivers for some reason. Overall the facility it self is up-kept and clean. Good place for short term but look for better long term options.

    Bowling Green KOA

    Everything we needed

    Great pull through spots. Every ammenity needed. Pet friendly with dog park for off-leash use. If ever that way again, will definitely us. 30 minites from Mammoth Cave.

    Cedar Creek (TN)

    Beautiful and well maintained

    RV pads are in great shape. All of them are level and come with a fire pit, nice picnic table, and an extra wooden table for tabletop grills or whatever else you want to use them for. Bathrooms are good enough. It looks like most or all sites have a view of the water. The shoreline is clean and the grass is mowed everywhere.

    The listing here says there are sewer hookups. I don’t see them at any of the sites, so I’m assuming there is a dump station. We only stayed one night passing through, so we didn’t mess with any of that. I also saw something that only listed 50 amp hookup. My spot also has a 30 amp hookup in case you need that and don’t have the dog bone.

Camping opportunities near Russellville, Kentucky range from lakeside sites to RV parks with various hookup options. Situated in south-central Kentucky at approximately 600 feet elevation, the area experiences humid subtropical climate with distinct seasons.

What to do

Fishing at Nolin Lake: At Moutardier Campground, visitors find excellent fishing opportunities. "Moutardier Campground is a fisherman's paradise. It is located on Nolin River Lake.

Hiking nearby trails: Moutardier offers the Shady Creek Trail for campers seeking land-based activities. "There is also a two mile hike that is in the campground called Shady Creek Trail.
