I spent 8 nights here. Almost everyday some huge rig would pull up in front of what little view I had and block me out completely. I was lucky if I had a few daylight hours of a view of the sky and trees.Most people left early in the morning. Even for the thanksgiving week that was a lot of activity. And I would think that since I booked 8 nights up front they would put be some place quiet and secluded. I got just the opposite. Fuel stations and restaurants nearby. My experience with KOAs is turning into just a stream of places you should only sleep at and get F out.

It’s a large campground with a lot of full time campers on site. Nice lake at 102 sq acres in size. Did have an issue that most sites are only 50 or 30amp hookups only, so I had to borrow a 30 to 120 adapter. The hiking trails were closed which sucked since I was looking forward to a hike with the dog. They are building a new pool. Good luck getting a lakeside site since I was told only 8 are available and are full most of the time.

I love Loretta Lynn's! Lots of options for all types of camping. They have equestrian spots, RV spots, tent spots, and cabins for rent. Plus so much to do on the property! Can get busy on holiday weekends when the weather is nice or if they are doing any events there! Otherwise you can easily find a spot here!
ScoutMy brother and eldest son camp and watch the AMA national motocross championship hosted by LL.
GuideThe campground is quite large with lots of things to explore. A lot of the roads, especially around the campsites were in need of repair. I had full hookup with 30 amp service, though not all of the sites have sewer. All of the lakeside sites are taken up by resident campers (of which there are a lot). I had absolutely no cell service through Verizon and my T-Mobile 5g internet had no reception either (even with a booster). Luckily, I was able to rely on my Starlink. A lot of the buildings looked like they had seen better days, but were maintained as well as they could be. Staff were nice and pleasant. Meriwether Lewis death/gravesite was nearby and interesting to check out. Not a whole lot else to do in the area. There is a low bridge (11ft) that you need to pass under to get onto the Natchez Trace Parkway. If you can’t fit, you have to take Napier road north several miles. There is a wal-mart in town about 20 or so minutes away.
GuideSo many bad reviews for this site. Complainers!! Yes big hills and horrible roads in the park, but your in the sticks, sooo.... Plenty level spots. Some Sites are full and some are partial hook-ups. Plenty spots w easy access and plenty not so easy. Wifi is available to purchase $25 for the week, no issues thus far. Beautiful location. Natchez Trace Pkwy has plenty to learn and explore!!! Cute, lively little towns nearby that have kept up that old town look with awesome shops! In Hohenwald there is an elephant sanctuary. It has a location in town to teach about that sanctuary (No elephants are kept there)
ScoutThe tent sites back onto I40 and are very loud. The ground is clay so, there are standing puddles in the rain around the camp. The tent pad does have drainage.
GuidePool was out of order. Roads needed a lot of love. Wifi was not good. General store was nice and employees were all nice. Close to Merriweather Lewis's final resting place.
GuideLightning Bugs, Farmer's Markets, good food...oh my!

Great stay on Tn river
TravelerGreat camping spot. Quiet and very spacious. We had the entire primitive side to ourselves. Plenty of amenities, close to all the waterfalls and nature trails. The beach was an awesome bonus. The price for primitive was a tad extreme.
ScoutArea is beautiful but sites were close together and the ground outside of my trailer was very unusable, all hill and large rocks. No way to spend time outside of the camper. After I leveled it the bottom of the front steps had a 2 foot drop and the rear were on the ground. The slope made the sewage hook up a nightmare. Verizon had spotty signal at best. My buddy and i tried to reserve a spots based off of a campsite map prior to going but when I showed we were put in different spots. Apparently the drive way for the cabin was also a spot and thew off the maps numbering... they only refunded us 1 "pick your spot price" since we were close enough. The area has great potential but just needs TLC and effort. Never checked out the showers and such but the store was nice and staff was friendly. I will say TMMR was a blast and I'll be back but for the money spent on a campsite, a 40ft toyhauler shouldn't have to be rigged into a site at a rally.

Primative Camping, kayaking & catching tagged small mouth bass was more than an experience! Perks was exploring a cave!!
GuideSolid private campground. They run a huge boating operation so it’s hella busy on the weekends. We stayed on the rowdy side in a tent with electric. Quiet time was 12am on the rowdy side they do have family oriented camping on the or other side of the river quiet time 10pm. Was a good time meeting some of the local folk. There is a killer BBQ truck there this summer Billy does one hell of a job. The rest rooms were hit or miss depending on what time of day but that shower water was hot. All in all a fun place to spend some time. Would definitely do the boating thing if I wasn’t passing thru.
RangerPro: 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.

This campground is no longer open. They have moved their operations to Florida.
TravelerVery friendly people clean shower houses, restrooms. Electric and water hookups. Dump station available.
ScoutUnfortunately while trying to research this campground I have found that it is no longer in operation. Just wanted to save others that may be trying to get in contact with them.
ScoutIf you need where to stay on your way to a destination, it will do the job. Verizon & AT&T good. T mobile non existent. This park is in total disrepair. There is nothing to do around here and there is nothing to do in the park. They do have a rifle range I am going to try out later. There is nothing in the clubhouse except a pool table. The office is always closed I’m not even sure if they have a store. This is not where to come to do anything at all other than an overnighter perhaps and even at that I don’t think I’ll ever do that again. 
RangerThe park has really nice roads and stops for viewing. Our full hookup camp site was next to water and lots of trees. Nice swimming area with a big pavilion.
GuideLots stacked in to close of each other. Felt like a trailer park. And this is a 1000 trails site? Not gaining confidence in a membership option here..
ScoutThis park is rundown very little to know sewer or RV dumps most of the people there are permanent residents seems to be more that of a mobile home park for RVs all the sites that have blackwater dumps are taken up by the permanent residence that live there has no access to the lake for campers have no trails in order to hike or explore the outdoors phase 2 campsite that does have a few maybe six or seven sanitation or sewer dumps is about 3 MI from the store or any of the amenities that they say they have in the park the tennis court looks like it has not been used in 10 years the pool was empty and the rest of the park looks run down the roads within the park look washed out and have not been in repair in a long time
TravelerNice level site. View of the TN River. 50, 30 and 20 amp service. Water but no sewer. Nice clean bathhouse. Three bar Verizon service.
ScoutWe love to come here for when we kayak the Buffalo. Plenty of open river front campsites and shuttles to or from the camp (depending on which route you take) The bathrooms start out pretty clean, but can quickly get nasty with the traffic of kayak renters and other campers. Showers also are pretty cold on a weekend night. Some of the sites could use a weed eater, but overall, this is a great place to camp. There is a family side if you prefer a more quiet, kid-friendly atmosphere.
TravelerVery beautiful place ! Cabins are spacious clean and furnished ! Dishes to use and pots and pans ! Even shower towels ! ! Right by the water and last minute reservations ! There’s Lots of stuff to find yourself doing to relaxing by the water to playing bingo at the hall ! To renting a kayak or pontoon ! Has dog park and swimming pool and beach area !
