"Nashville north koa was a nice campground with a proximity to Nashville but away from the bustle. We stayed for a week and enjoyed ourselves."
"The proximity to the Opry and surrounding sites is fantastic. Top that off with front desk, event and maintenance staff that were all super nice and you’ve got a great combo."
"The Grand Ole RV Resort is a nice park to stay in near all the fun and sightseeing of Nashville, Tennessee. The campground is very tidy and well-kept."
"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."
"It has conveinient access to I65 and Highway 31W. They have 30/50amp full service hookups and Cabins.
One of the coolest deals is the local winery deals while staying there."

ScoutVery clean campground, water is not for swimming though! And people who are keeping it going are super nice. Wanted to extend but they only have 14 sites and it was booked :/
ScoutStaff was wonderful at helping with all needs...booking tours too. Can shuttle a bus to downtown Nashville. Nice pool. Live music every night at the campground. Clean restrooms, laundry and the entire park.
ScoutThis campground is nice. Pool and indoor park is great for the kids. But this place is really really quiet. Not bad but we were scared to make a sound.
ScoutGreat place to stay when passing through.
ScoutStayed on a Thursday night at a pitch a tent spot. Beautiful farm but unfortunately the tent spots are right next to a very noisy 4 lane highway.
GuideThis was a very nice resort camping spot. I loved the not tub with the jets. I tent camped on the mulch and electric/ water site. I just wanted to see what the mulch was like. The big chest , checkers and jumping pillow was pretty cool. And if you want wood you can charge your card on file and they'll bring your wood to your site.... since they don't just have it in the office. It's also very close to town so you can get a Uber or even have food delivered if you actually don't want to cook. Feels very much like glamping.
GuideI've lived close to Cages Bend for over 50 years, but have never camped here until this past weekend. Man I didn't know what i was missing. This little hidden gem is the perfect spot on Old Hickory Lake for camping and taking in an amazing sunrise. You can easily launch your kayak from the shore or catch that big bass you've been trying for. They have a boat launch if you want to bring that or your Jet ski with you. Lots of trees help keep the summer heat from beating down on you and did I mention wildlife? We saw tons of Deer, Ducks, Geese, squirrels, Turtles and snakes, but thankfully the snakes stayed in the water! The camp host, Tanya and Donnie(i hope i got their names right) were amazing from Day 1. Very helpful and kind, blows my mind to see any negative reviews about them, they were truly Amazing! The campground is kept very clean and they take pride in keeping it that way. We stayed in spot 28 the first night, then moved over to 30 for 4 nights. Both of them are great sites. We have verizon phone/internet service and it worked perfectly there. I could go on and on, but i'll finish by saying, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND a visit to Cages Bend Campground. We camped at over 50 campgrounds and this is in my top 3!
ScoutManager is rude and place is trashy
GuideCamp hosts were extremely friendly, bathrooms were very clean, site was perfect right on a sandy beach.
Campsites near Greenbrier, Tennessee offer convenient access to Old Hickory Lake and Cumberland River while remaining within 30 minutes of Nashville. The region features a mix of Corps of Engineers campgrounds, private RV resorts, and state parks scattered throughout the Highland Rim geographical area. Summer camping often requires advance planning due to high demand, particularly at lakefront sites that provide water recreation opportunities.
Fishing at Cedar Creek: Located on Old Hickory Lake, this campground provides excellent bank fishing opportunities. "Most sites have a lovely view of the lake if not directly along the shore. Swimming beach, playground, and marina both within walking distance," notes one visitor at Cedar Creek.
Live music at campgrounds: Several RV parks offer on-site entertainment without driving to Nashville. "Live music and the shuttle service to go downtown. That's all we need," reports a camper at Grand Ole RV Resort & Market. Many campgrounds feature regular performances during summer months.
Hiking at Bledsoe Creek: The park offers several miles of lakeside trails suitable for all skill levels. "We did a nice 4 mile hike around the whole park," shares a visitor, though they noted "when we're hiking we love to get out away from everyone and everything. It felt like we were in earshot of the campground the entire hike."
Spacious lakefront campsites: Seven Points campground features well-separated sites with water views. "The lake view and night skies are amazing. The water is warm, which isn't something I'm used to being from further north, but the campsites are so nicely groomed and the place is pristine," writes a camper at Seven Points.
Shuttle service to Nashville: Many campgrounds offer affordable transportation to downtown. "Has shuttle service to downtown for 10.00 great price. Very friendly staff," mentions a visitor at Nashville RV and Cabins Resort. This allows campers to avoid parking challenges in the city.
Wildlife viewing: Deer sightings are common at several area campgrounds. At Bledsoe Creek, one camper reported: "Deer would just walk up near you and just say hello. It's so peaceful and it allows me to think that there's not all bad here on Earth."
Train noise affects some campgrounds: Several campgrounds near Goodlettsville experience railroad disruptions. At Grand Ole RV Resort, a visitor warns: "Only downfall are the trains that operate 24/7 directly adjacent to the grounds. Trains rolling by at 3 am is not how I spend my night."
Highway noise is common: Many Nashville-area campgrounds experience traffic sounds. "Very very noisy due to the highway that runs right on the other side of the tree line," reports a camper at Nashville North.
Tick prevention needed: Some campgrounds have notable tick populations. "Our dogs picked up ticks every day, and we had a few as well. Watch out for lyme and other tick born illnesses. We unfortunately found a bullseye rash from one of the bites," warns a visitor at Bledsoe Creek.
Check for swimming areas: Not all lakefront campgrounds permit swimming. A visitor at Bledsoe Creek noted: "The only bad things were that there was no swimming in the lake and there was no pool. We will try a new place next time."
Consider playground facilities: Some campgrounds have limited play equipment. At Grand Ole RV Resort, a camper mentioned: "They show a playset on their map and it was two regular swings and a baby swing. This was disappointing since we had little ones."
Look for evening activities: Campgrounds with scheduled activities keep kids entertained. "The pool was great our kids loved it! Unfortunately missed the live music that plays frequently on their back porch," shares a family at Two Rivers Campground.
Site dimensions vary significantly: Many campgrounds have tight spacing between sites. At Nashville KOA Resort, one camper observed: "Sites are very compact. You lack any privacy. They do have a lot of trees to make it feel less like a parking lot."
Maneuvering challenges exist: Some campgrounds have limited turning space. "Tight fit for my 43' motorhome, especially maneuvering dump station," notes a visitor at Cedar Creek, highlighting the importance of knowing your vehicle length.
Consider full-hookup availability: Sewer connections aren't universal at area campgrounds. "Perfect for people who like to be surrounded with nature. Very clean and well maintained spots. Water and electric but no sewer. There is a dump station in the campground," shares an RVer at Seven Points.
