    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.

    Campers RV Park

    Great location

    Many improvements have been made since last year. The pull thru sites have been widened and are more accommodating for larger RVs. They are working on adding a few more pull thru sites as well. The sites are gravel and mostly level. All sites are FHU. They do offer short term monthly rates which are back in sites that have a little more room. There are 4 rustic cabins available, and the bathhouses are reserved currently for those guests only due to COVID. The laundry room is only open Fri-Sun. There are no fire rings on the sites, but you can rent a fire pit with a screen. There are also community fire pits for everyone to enjoy. There is a playground, hammock hut, and game area for the kids to stay entertained. The owners, managers, and staff are all great and you can see the hard work they are putting in to continue to upgrade this campground.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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!


Guide to Mount Juliet

Cabin rentals near Mount Juliet, Tennessee provide convenient overnight options within 30 miles of Nashville. The area sits between Percy Priest Lake and Center Hill Lake in middle Tennessee's Highland Rim region at approximately 500 feet elevation. Winter temperatures average 30-50°F while summer months reach 85-95°F with high humidity, affecting cabin camping comfort during peak season.

What to do

Waterside activities: Percy Priest Lake spans 14,000 acres with multiple boat ramps accessible from Nashville Shores Lakeside Resort. One visitor mentioned, "The lake is very pretty but it's just to look at unless you want to drop a fortune to rent a jet ski or boat." Fishing licenses required for adults.

Seasonal water park: Summer splashing available at Nashville Shores from Memorial Day through Labor Day. "The waterpark is just steps away, I would suggest not eating food within the park it is over priced and not very tasty, go to the marina restaurant or eat at your campsite," notes one camper.

Winter holiday events: Festive camping opportunities during Halloween at Cedars of Lebanon State Park Campground. A regular visitor shared, "Their halloween weekend is a great time of fun for the kids!" Decorations, trick-or-treating, and costume contests typically run weekends in October.

What campers like

Lakefront views: Morning sunrises visible from many waterside cabin sites at Four Corners RV Resort. "We spent a week on a Lakefront site with breathtaking sunrises and sunsets. Additionally, we were right next to one of the courtesy docks where our family members picked us up on their boat, enjoying the lake coves and scenery," notes a satisfied guest.

Clean facilities: Well-maintained bathhouses consistently mentioned across multiple locations. At Nashville Shores, a visitor commented, "The shower house was one of the best I've seen mostly because it is air conditioned. The showers are all very private and clean with plenty of room."

Wildlife viewing: Bird watching opportunities especially for waterfowl. Four Corners visitors report, "I love seeing the geese, their babies, the mallards, the sun rise, and the sun set on the water." Morning hours typically best for wildlife activity, particularly in spring and early summer.

What you should know

Site configurations: Unique platform cabins at Edgar Evins State Park Campground differ from standard cabin layouts. A camper described, "First time camping in our camper, on platforms. Loved it! Very informative pontoon boat tour with a Park Ranger. Great lunch at the marina too!"

Seasonal insect activity: Bug preparation essential in summer months. At Four Corners, campers advise, "Highly recommend bringing bug spray for your RV because at night they are all over the door and walls."

Reservation timing: Advance planning critical for weekend stays year-round and all summer dates. "Reserve early because it seems the campground is always full," reports a Cedars of Lebanon visitor. Many parks open reservations 6-12 months in advance with holiday weekends filling immediately.

Tips for camping with families

Playground access: Kid-friendly areas available at multiple locations including Nashville North KOA. The campground features "a new playground, pool, dog play area (Kamp K9), checkers, ladderball, and shuffleboard." Activities suitable for ages 4-12.

Cabin selection: Space considerations important when choosing accommodations. At Nashville East-Lebanon KOA, a visitor cautioned about certain cabins: "Nowhere near level and quite the audience. We camped here for one night as a stopover. We didn't even sit out under the awning because so many cabins and campers were all facing where we were."

Shuttle services: Downtown transportation options eliminate parking hassles when visiting Nashville attractions. "They have a shuttle service to downtown for 10.00 great price," notes a visitor to Nashville RV and Cabins Resort. Most shuttles require advance booking.

Tips from RVers

Site leveling: Bring equipment for uneven terrain at certain campgrounds. Nashville East-Lebanon KOA visitors warn, "Bring leveling blocks. Friendly folks, but the entire campground is kinda hilly. You can get level in the pull through, but just if you park so-so."

Water pressure variations: Adapt expectations based on campground infrastructure. Four Corners RV Resort receives praise for "great water pressure" while other locations like Nashville East-Lebanon KOA report "low water pressure."

Wi-Fi reliability: Connectivity options vary significantly between parks. At Nashville I-24 Campground, a visitor reported, "Wi-Fi dropped every 5 minutes first day, didn't have internet working second day." Consider bringing your own hotspot for consistent access.
