Buchanan Resort

Buchanan Resort sits along Kentucky Lake in west Tennessee, operating from mid-March through mid-November with full hookups for RVs up to 40 feet. The campground functions as part of a larger resort complex that includes a restaurant, pool, playground, and store, with docks providing direct lake access close to the camping sites.

Each site comes equipped with water and electric hookups, a picnic table, and a stationary charcoal grill on what one camper described as a gravel parking lot layout. While one reviewer praised the well-maintained facilities and easy dock access, another noted electrical grounding issues at their site. The resort also offers cottage rentals for those without RVs, and campers can find additional campgrounds around Buchanan in the surrounding Kentucky Lake area.

First come first serve

It is basically a gravel parking lot. We had to take use the electricity from the site behind us because ours wasn’t grounded.
