    SUMMARY PRESENTED BYT-Mobile

    Piney Campground accommodates pets at its sites where tent campers, RV enthusiasts, and cabin guests share the natural surroundings near Kentucky Lake. Loretta Lynn's Ranch welcomes campers with dogs at their full-hookup RV sites, primitive tent areas, and pet-friendly cabin rentals. Most campgrounds in the area maintain standard leash requirements, with pets needing to be under physical control at all times outside vehicles or camping units. Southern Comfort RV Park and Campground provides pet owners with convenient amenities including water and electric hookups while maintaining a walking trail where dogs can exercise. The tent sites at most locations feature picnic tables and fire rings where campers and their pets can enjoy evenings together. Campground quiet hours typically begin at 10 PM when barking must be minimized to respect neighboring campers.

    Montgomery Bell State Park Campground maintains dog-friendly hiking trails accessible directly from the camping areas where leashed pets can explore the wooded landscape. During summer months, extra water supplies for pets become essential as temperatures frequently exceed 90°F with high humidity. The Buffalo I-40 Exit 143 KOA includes a designated dog park where pets can run off-leash within a fenced area. Dogs visiting Birdsong Resort and Marina should be kept away from wildlife viewing areas and boat launches where waterfowl congregate. Most campgrounds require proof of current rabies vaccination during check-in procedures. Pet waste stations are positioned throughout the camping areas with bags and disposal bins to maintain sanitary conditions. Pet-friendly campsites closest to walking trails tend to fill quickly during peak season from May through September when pet owners seek convenient exercise options.

      Parkers Crossroads RV Park and Campground

      RV Park and RV Repair!

      Parker’s Crossroads is located very conveniently off of I-40 and the park is gorgeous! They have some long term campers, storage, and an RV Repair Center on site. The shop inside has more parts then we have ever seen at an RV Park. While here we needed a switch for a water heater, they had it!

      The campground had some narrow roads and some less than level sites but they were all doable. They have a nice pool area, spaces for dogs to be walked (on leash), pet waste disposal, cabins, and full hook ups.

      The park was very quiet and clean, well kept. They have large mature trees, and great landscaping.

      The cellular service for TMobile and AT&T we’re both decent and streaming video was possible each night.

      Buffalo I-40-Exit 143 KOA

      Hurricane Mills, TN…Not for us

      Pro: It’s a well maintained resort. Had a decent dog park. Sites were nicely spaced. Check in was a breeze and we were shown to our site by a very nice lady. Lots of trees and flowers and quiet. Easy in and out. Cons: We had a corner site and we were really too long for the site, we’re 42’ long. The electric and water were all in one spot which was at the very end of the camper. We’ve been on this journey for 10 months so not our first rodeo. As the lady left a man rolls up in his cart and informs us that we need to pull up farther because it would be a tight squeeze for anyone to navigate around us. Which he wasn’t wrong but perhaps a more appropriate site could have been given us since we had a reservation for weeks. We told him if we pulled up farther we couldn’t reach the hose connection. He arrogantly told us that we should have a 50’ hose as most people do just for these circumstances. He also said we could buy one in their store. I asked if they possibly had another site that might fit the rig better. He said he thought they were full for the night but I could ask! That pretty much set the tone for the stay and for this review. Not sure if he was the owner or a grounds keeper. The sites were on hills- which it is Tennessee…but we had a difficult time getting our camper level as it went down hill due to the fact we had to pull up so far it set the camper downhill. It has auto leveling and could never get it level where we sat, kept giving us an error code. This system won’t allow you to level manually. We have 4 slides and it was difficult to get them out not being level. The bedroom slide came out enough for us to open the bed out. The fact that the camper was at such a slant it was not good for the slides obviously because it was so un-level that the jacks wouldn’t go down. It was pretty bouncy and you picked up speed walking from one end to the other. We were glad it was just one night.

      Piney River Resort

      A Hidden Treasure

      The staff was friendly and helpful. The campground is nestled around the Piney River amongst in the middle of the forest. The campgrounds have future expansion projects lined up to add additional sites, a pool, and a pet area.  Do not rely on GPS and follow the directions in your reservation email for the safest route. Stock up on groceries, the nearest market is roughly 30 minutes away. Check out the winery's.

      Lock A

      Quiet Peaceful Campground by Cheatam Lake & Dam

      We loved our site 32 which was fully shaded all day long which was great in August given the heat and humidity. We hiked the Bicentennial Trail (13.3 miles long from start to finish) which was also shaded and with geocaches. We went with our 2 dogs and 2 kids. The boys loved the playground and the dogs appreciated the cool breeze and shade of our site. We were close to the boat ramp which made access to the water easy. There is a nearby lock and dam with another playground in walking distance. We had a fire ring, a wooden picnic table, a concrete picnic table and chairs as well as a grill. Folks were quiet and friendly. I would highly recommend it and would visit again.

    Guide to Eva

    Kentucky Lake's influence creates a varied landscape around Eva, Tennessee, where elevation ranges between 380-500 feet above sea level. Summer temperatures regularly climb above 90°F with high humidity levels, while spring and fall offer milder camping conditions with temperatures between 55-75°F. Camping options near Eva provide access to both woodland settings and shoreline environments.

    What to do

    Fishing opportunities: Piney Campground offers water access where anglers can fish from shorelines or piers. "Fishing was OK from the shore. There is a fishing pier people were talking about but we didnt try it," reports Chris R., who found the cove water "warm and calm being off the main lake."

    History exploration: Civil War sites and heritage attractions near Loretta Lynn's Ranch provide educational day trips. "The best part of our stay was the tour of the plantation and Loretta Lynn's Museum," writes Debra F., highlighting the historical value beyond just camping.

    Wildlife viewing: Natural habitats support diverse animal populations. "Saw a lot of wildlife for such a big campground with lots of people traffic," notes Shy-Anne W. about her experience at Piney Campground, indicating wildlife remains visible despite campground activity.

    What campers like

    Water recreation: Birdsong Resort and Marina provides direct lake access with boating facilities. Cheryl Ann G. mentions it has a "boat launch, shore fishing" among its amenities, making it convenient for water enthusiasts.

    Spacious campsites: Many campers appreciate room to spread out. "I loved that the spaces were big, and each campsite was separated by large bushes and trees," writes Isabella H. about Piney Campground, noting sites accommodate "2 tents, the table, fire ring and car."

    On-site amenities: Established campgrounds offer recreational facilities beyond natural attractions. At Piney Campground, Felecia E. notes there is "a pavilion and basketball court plus several playgrounds throughout," providing activities when not exploring the surrounding area.

    What you should know

    Site conditions: Some campgrounds require maintenance attention. At Parkers Crossroads RV Park, Matthew M. found "bathhouses were not fancy but cleaner than most," suggesting travelers set realistic expectations about facilities.

    Seasonal considerations: Weather patterns affect camping comfort significantly. "During winter is punishing and forces you inside most of the time," observes Rich S. at Piney Campground, where "lake/river effect wind coming in" creates challenging conditions outside summer months.

    Pet policies: Pet friendly camping near Eva, Tennessee includes specific guidelines. "Most have standard leash requirements," with designated areas for exercise. At Southern Comfort RV Park, Rhonda S. appreciated the "nice walking trail" that provides space for pets to exercise with owners.

    Tips for camping with families

    Playground options: Multiple play areas allow children different recreation spaces. Piney Campground offers "several playgrounds throughout," according to Felecia E., giving families flexibility in where children can play within the campground.

    Swimming areas: Protected coves provide safer water recreation than open lake areas. Chris R. notes at Piney Campground: "Water was warm and calm being off the main lake. Piney cove is pretty shallow and we could walk out into the water a good 30-40ft before getting too deep."

    Educational opportunities: Buffalo I-40 Exit 143 KOA provides access to nearby learning experiences. A T. mentions "Farmer's Markets" among local attractions, giving families opportunities to experience rural Tennessee culture beyond the campsite.

    Tips from RVers

    Hookup placement: Position can affect setup convenience. Rich S. cautions about Piney Campground: "The sites are level, but are not picked up routinely," suggesting RVers bring cleaning supplies for site preparation.

    Noise considerations: Highway proximity affects some campgrounds. "Not recommended if you're looking for a peaceful spot to enjoy a vacation," warns Sara R. about Buffalo I-40 Exit 143 KOA, noting it's "extremely easy to get to and right off I-40" but has "extremely loud traffic noise."

    Leveling challenges: Terrain variations require preparation. At Parker's Crossroads, MickandKarla W. found "the site is not level and had to put leveling blocks under our door side wheels as they were off the ground after auto level," suggesting RVers bring adequate leveling equipment.
