McDermit RV Park features 15 spacious sites with full hookups and accommodates big rigs with level parking areas. Paradise on the Mountain RV Park in Crossville maintains 100 RV sites with both 30 and 50-amp electrical hookups on primarily gravel pads.

Many RV parks in the region require advance reservations, particularly during fall and summer months when Dale Hollow Lake attracts visitors. Access roads to some campgrounds may present challenges with steep grades and tight turns, especially for larger motorhomes. Most facilities provide sanitary dump stations, though water quality varies between locations. According to one visitor at Edgar Evins State Park, "The RV camp sites are suspended in the air using steel columns and wood planks. It works well for our camper but the inclines on the roads are very steep. Think twice before you bring the big rig." Cell service tends to be unreliable at lakeside locations, with several reviews noting complete lack of connectivity at Lillydale Campground. Pet policies generally allow dogs with standard restrictions, and on-site amenities typically include bath houses, trash collection, and picnic tables.

RangerThe hosts, Kent and Lisa, were extremely friendly and accommodating. This is a private lot beside their pole barn on level concrete. It fit my 30ft TT perfectly. You'll enjoy time with the horses, chickens, and cows. Great sunsets and sunrises, but better people. Felt like a bed and breakfast but you sleep in your own bed. And just about 30 minutes to Mammoth Cave.
TravelerThe lakes are way low, so our lakeside campsite was not really. With no flow, the lake stunk and had a slimey feel. Too many motors to paddle, too loud, no privacy. I’ll not visit this one again.
GuideThis is our number one favorite place to camp. We are from Knoxville, TN and if we are wanting to camp for the weekend but avoid the drive, this is where we come! Area 1 site 25 is our favorite and we are super excited to stay at 108 and 109 in the future. The campground is beautiful. Area 1 is shaded with plenty of trees around making it feel like you're in a little forest, and of course fall is wonderful. Some sites have sewer. I have T-mobile cell phone and I have 3 bars at 5g and my husband has xfinity and has 2 bars at 4G.
Love this campground!
TravelerNice campground, spaces are a little tight but not bad. Restrooms are clean.
GuideThis looks like a nice campground, but I just needed to sleep. I asked for the least expensive site and was told $70. The WiFi didn't even work. Under new ownership and was told it would be getting better. They claim to be the friendliest dog RV Park in America, but they don't even have a dog park so I don't know why they think they're the best.
GuideLevel paved spot, partial shade (site 140), quiet, sites not too close together, cooler evenings than LA (lower AL). Nice staff. Not crowded.
GuideVery beautiful and peaceful. The lake water is on point. All clean and well maintained
GuideCame in later than expected but secondary station still open to register for a site.
TravelerCampsites are close together. We were only there 1 night. It was peaceful and quiet. All sites are gravel with fire ring and picnic table. They have some sites FHU, some water & electric, and primitive sites. A nice pool is on site. Looked like a nice playground and dog areas.
