      Four Corners RV Resort

      Nashville’s best-kept secret

      I’m hesitant to write this review because this is our new close-to-home GO-TO camping spot and we don’t want it to get booked up. 😆 It is new, quiet, and extremely well-priced. Our lakeside spot was $60 per night. Our other lake resort stays in this area have been at least double that! There is a gated entrance, which I like. The staff here is unbelievably welcoming and friendly. The crew is constantly working on cleaning, landscaping and maintenance. This morning they were raking the beach sand because it rained yesterday. There are plenty of pet waste stations and attractive (seriously)trash bins spaced throughout the park. The sites are concrete, level and roomy with full hookups (great water pressure!), new picnic tables and fire rings. There is not one bad location on the lakeside sites. Our personal faves are 69 thru 81...odds/lakefront. There is a swimming beach (see pic) as well as several relaxing spots, a playground, a bark park and a dog washing station (see pic!). There is a bath house, laundry (with 4 brand-new LG front loading washers), a gym (with a universal, an elliptical and a treadmill) and a small store. See pics! Bathhouse is spotless. It is attached to the marina (but the marina is situated on the far end)and they rent kayaks, paddle boards, and golf carts. There are three docks with kayak and jet ski slips. The view of Percy Priest is incredible and serene. I seriously can not recommend this place highly enough. ***They are going to be adding tiny houses, cabins and aqua houses (think Bali, but closer😉).

      Family oriented and extended stay options

      Used to be a KOA park turned independent. The campground is introducing "Glamping sites" along with their cabin rentals and RV sites. The manager and staff have been great with accommodations. The campground is family-oriented, quiet at night, and offers activities on the weekends and holidays. Though stated in Goodlettsville, it is in Millersville proper. For restaurants and grocery runs, take I-65 South to exit 97. Of course, you have the Nashville scene, but check out Mansker’s Station for some rich history of true pioneer spirit. Opryland and Downtown Nashville are about 20 minutes away, respectively.

      Nashville I-24 Campground

      Lovely stay

      We are RTT campers and chose this place on a whim as the rest of the local tent camping spots closed on October 1st. We were lucky to find they had space available. However, it should be noted that this is more of an RV campground, the traditional tent sites are right by the gate and not very private. The RV slot we were given backed up to a green space that has grazing deer from time to time. The site did not have a fire ring or a picnic table and was a little far from the bathrooms, but it did have power and water available. That being said the bathrooms were extremely tidy, well heated, and the water pressure in the showers was amazing! The other RV’ers were super friendly and the staff was very helpful in our stay and responsive to our request for availability.

      GlamperGirl

      This is my favorite place to camp. If you have furbabies you will love it. All campsites except the primitive are huge decks. Electric, water, grill, fire ring, picnic table and canopy of trees. Bathrooms are always clean. Showers have hot water fast. Fire wood is all around in the woods. Kayaking is great! Put in below Center Hill dam. 6 mile run of clear cold water! Stocked with trout. I don't fish but if you do, you will need a trout stamp. If you don't own kayaks there is a store called Big Rock Market. You can contact them and they will set you up with kayaks and they drop off and pick you up. So, back to the campground. Dog friendly, clean, 30 and 50 amp.,coin laundry at the camp store. Dump station and trash. Playground for children, view of the lake from most sites. Marina where you can rent boats. I just can't say enough about this awesome place. Friendly staff. I actually just stopped the ranger driving by to ask him a few questions. I am at site 9 this time. Usually 25. Some have inclines or declines. 9 has a slight decline 25 is flat. When you go to the map and click on a site it will tell you. Like site 23 is right next to a bathroom, but it has a steep incline. So pay attention to that when booking. There are hiking trails and wildlife. The woodpeckers start about 6:00 am. LOL! I have not seen a snake in the camping area. Just deer and birds.

      Cedars of Lebanon State Park Campground

      Beautiful park, close campsites

      Beautiful park with tons to do. Campsites in area 1 were a little close together. Each site has a picnic table, fire ring, and charcoal grill. Bathrooms and showers available close by. Reserve early because it seems the campground is always full. Like most parks/forests, you cannot bring your own fire wood.

      Friendly, comfortable and quiet

      We stayed here for the long Presidents Day weekend in a wooded drive through spot with few neighbors. We saw 10 deer one morning and hiked a trail with our 3 boys and 2 dogs. Electric and water hook-ups. Firewood available for cash only. Fire ring with grill and picnic table at our spot.

      Dad's Bluegrass Campground

      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!

      Cedars of Lebanon State Park Campground

      Little park, lots to do

      Cedars Of Lebanon State Park ,split tree fences and ancient farm equipment, black and white photos in the visitors center, old style cabins and rock boundary fences. History is very present in Cedars.

      A 2 mile running trail that meanders through old farm land and indigenous trees. CCC original looking covered benches which overlook a dry stream bed that ends in an exploitable old cave. A wood bridge further down the small valley crosses the stream bed and can be followed to the nature centers very cool garden.Check in before exploring the cave and wear old clothes that you don’t mind getting muddy, low ceiling and headlamp/flashlight needed.

      The picnic area which is adjacent the lodge has small and large pavilions for use and fire pits. The lodge looks like it’s the original that you can see in the black and white photos.

      The campground has three areas. One has side by side sites, no privacy and not much space but easy in, easy out. The other two loops have more area between sites which are tucked back into the trees. Area 3 is for pop ups , tents and vans with 20 amp electric, Area 2 is for the larger campers, 30 amp and area 1, the side by side is 30 to 50 amp. There is disc golf, a swimming pool and riding stables plus two playgrounds and a nice gazebo that you can rent for special events. Definitely a campground to spend a chill weekend and unwind.

      Nashville KOA Resort

      The ultimate RV resort

      This is the upper echelon of RV camping; a true resort with amenities to match. Family and pet friendly with plenty of walking space, playground and multiple fenced in areas for the dogs to play off leash. 20/30/50 amp power, water and sewer hookups at most sites.

      As with most RV parks the spaces at the sites are tight, so be ready to get close to your neighbors. The campground requests that all trailers and RV use blocks under their stabilizers and not lay down any outdoor rugs to protect the grass. 

      One note for those making use of the sewer connection: The stand pipe sits somewhat higher off the ground than what you may see at other parks, so be prepared to get creative with your waste water hose to make sure you're running downhill before dumping tanks.

    Guide to Gallatin

    Cabin camping options near Gallatin, Tennessee range from rustic to luxurious throughout the area's rolling hills and lake country. Located approximately 30 miles northeast of Nashville, Gallatin sits near the Cumberland River and Percy Priest Lake regions, with elevations around 500 feet above sea level. Winter temperatures typically range from 30-50°F, making cabin camping a viable year-round option.

    What to do

    Hiking opportunities: Cedars of Lebanon State Park, located about 40 minutes from Gallatin, offers unique cedar glade ecosystem trails. "We saw 10 deer one morning and hiked a trail with our 3 boys and 2 dogs," mentions one visitor to Cedars of Lebanon State Park Campground.

    Water recreation: Explore Percy Priest Lake at Four Corners RV Resort where waterfront cabin options provide direct lake access. "There is a swimming beach as well as several relaxing spots, a playground, a bark park and a dog washing station," notes a reviewer at Four Corners RV Resort.

    Seasonal activities: Halloween festivities are popular at several campgrounds. "Their halloween weekend is a great time of fun for the kids!" shares a camper about Cedars of Lebanon State Park.

    What campers like

    Platform camping: Edgar Evins State Park offers unique platform-style campsites and cabins. "We love the platform sites that are so spacious and private. Easy access to dump station and bath houses. Almost all sites have view of water," reports a guest at Edgar Evins State Park Campground.

    Proximity to Nashville attractions: Nashville KOA Resort provides cabin accommodations with transportation options. "There is a shuttle offered for a $15 fee that will take you downtown Nashville. It is also super close to the Grand Ole Opry," explains a visitor to Nashville KOA Resort.

    Renovated facilities: The Nashville East-Lebanon KOA has recently upgraded their bathroom facilities. "Booked one of their hammock/tent sites for car camping and it was delightful. The covered deck with picnic table was ideal as it was raining lightly. Bathrooms were best we've seen at a KOA. Recently renovated and definitely a cut above," according to a camper at Nashville East-Lebanon KOA.

    What you should know

    Seasonal considerations: Many water attractions have limited operating hours. "The water park is not open during the week although it had officially opened the week before," reports a camper about Nashville Shores.

    Noise factors: Highway proximity affects some properties. "Noisy due to the highway that is very close. Great sounds of the trucks to keep you awake," notes a camper at Nashville North KOA.

    Site spacing: Campground layouts vary considerably. "Sites are very close together. Not much room between my RV and neighbor," mentions another Nashville North visitor.

    Insect preparation: Waterfront properties may have significant mosquito populations. "I went out on the dock one night to fish and they were so thick it was impossible to not get bit by them," warns a Four Corners RV Resort guest.

    Tips for camping with families

    Kid-friendly amenities: Look for playgrounds and pools when booking cabin stays. "Sites were large with awesome pool and play areas for kiddos," shares a visitor to Nashville RV and Cabins Resort.

    Cabin selection strategy: Larger families should book early for multi-room options. "The cabins at Nashville Shores Lakeside Resort provide lakefront accommodations with more spacious layouts suitable for families."

    Budget planning: Factor in additional costs for water park access. "For the price of admission for two you'll get a season pass that gets both of you full access to the water park and tree top adventure park," notes a Nashville Shores visitor.

    Tips from RVers

    Site leveling: Check if cabin sites require additional equipment. "The site was nowhere near level side to side," reports a Nashville East-Lebanon KOA visitor.

    Internet connectivity: WiFi quality varies widely between properties. "AT&T had 2 bars and 1 MB/s without a booster, 3 bars and 4 MB/s with it. Overall WiFi was problematic," explains a camper at Edgar Evins State Park.

    Access considerations: Some properties have challenging entrances. "Watch the approach since you could head into the truck stop - stay to the right and you will be ok," advises a visitor to Dad's Bluegrass Campground near the Kentucky-Tennessee border.
