We are a quiet, year round campground nestled in the heart of Amish country in southern middle Tennessee. Our small campground borders Tennessee's oldest Amish farm, now the Amish Heritage Farm Museum which provides enchanting views of the farm, horses and spectacular sunsets. If it's peace and quiet you're after, you have found it! From the steady clip clop of Amish horse and buggies passing by, to the faint sound of roosters crowing in the morning, our campground offers something truly special. Leave the hustle and bustle behind, and enjoy the slow paced life of Amish country. For more info visit: https://www.facebook.com/RestCamp
For a State Park, Montgomery Bell is pretty great. We had a decent sized level site with large trees and a view to the creek. We walked a couple of the trails through the woods which were perfect after a long drive. The bathroom/showers were clean and the water was hot. A strong storm came up suddenly and the staff came by to check on every camper to make sure we were all inside and safe. After the storm passed, they came by again checking on every camper. The power went out for two hours, and the staff came by once more to keep us informed. The park is beautiful, but it's the super competent staff earned the excellent rating I gave this park.
Campground is well marked and super friendly people. Fire pits at every spot.
Stayed with our van in the primitive sites here and had a great time! Very affordable and not many other campers (but if the group camp sites are booked I’d go elsewhere, they’re very close). The bathroom is super far away, but there was a portable potty for a few days until they inexplicably took it away. If you have a camping bathroom setup and are comfy going to get water if needed, it’s a great value and gives you want more privacy.
Also the showers here are the best I’ve ever experienced at a campground. They have signs saying you can shower for $5 even if you don’t camp here.
Great anytime of year. Fishing, golf, restaurant and many other activities. Campground recently updated.
Something for everyone! Tent spots, RV spots, cabins, back country spots! Lots of recreation opportunities here too! The lakes are great!
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!
My brother and eldest son camp and watch the AMA national motocross championship hosted by LL.
The 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.
So 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)
Once we found it it was ok but only for overnight or monthly people living there
This place is secluded and quiet. The grounds were well kept. I highly recommend it
First of all, clearly there are many great reviews listed for this business on Google, but it seems to be the majority are simply reviews on the kayak rental and floating experience or camping in tents and RVs. My review is specifically in regards to renting a cabin with them and the customer service(or lack there of) they portrayed when faced with my complaint. DO NOT STAY IN THEIR CABINS! Upon our arrival on Friday night, I pulled back the covers to replace with the blanket we brought and immediately noticed what appeared to be a dead bug. I began looking closer and pulling back the sheets. I found several different casings of a bug that per google could be bedbugs but could be another bug. I tried to not be paranoid. I decided to take photos along the way just in case. Keep in mind, there were 5 fitted sheets, and 2 mattress covers on this ONE bed. Why? It seemed like they were trying to cover up an issue in my opinion. I put a fitted sheet we brought over theirs and we used our blanket that night. We spent the next day on the river, and I will be clear and honest, the experience on the river is great and we have zero complaints. Upon returning to the cabin(this was cabin#1 by the way) I decided to lay down in the bed under our blanket. At this point, I already had a couple bumps on my upper arm that were itching terribly. I have a tattoo right there so I couldn’t really see the irritation, but it did itch really badly. I tried to tell myself it was mosquitoes from being on the river. Then, I saw another couple of bugs and the end result was we just could not sleep there another night with what we had seen and feared. We cleaned everything up and drove home late that night. I purposely left our luggage and the sheet and blanket in the vehicle that night. The next day(Sunday) I brought it all into the house and washed it and dried it on high heat. By Tuesday evening, I had several more bumps trickling down my arm in a line and by Saturday morning I woke up with bumps all the way down my hand, and a few sporadic ones on my leg, neck, and face. I went to the doctors that next Monday and they confirmed IT WAS BEDBUG BITES. They put me on a weeks worth of steroids after giving me a steroid shot in the office and gave me a medicated cream for the intense itching I was experiencing. I immediately called a pest control company and had 2 out within 3 days. Both companies confirmed the pictures I have are 100% BEDBUGS AND MY BITES ARE ABSOLUTELY BEDBUG BITES. I know these situations can get out of control quickly and the last thing I wanted was for my kids to go through this discomfort so I decided to reach out to Carol at Buffalo River Resort by email and very respectfully explain what happened and what’s come of it. I included pictures and followed up with the estimates I had gotten as well as the report from my doctor. We have 4 children in our home and just lost my mother-in-law unexpectedly and have faced unexpected financial challenges, so we are in no position to financially cover this issue, however, this is not something to be ignored. I received a response the next day(Tuesday) saying they are sorry and they will get this to the owner. I have followed up 3x since then and have not heard a word from them. We did, however, get the cost of our cabin refunded back to our credit card yesterday. I sent one last email this morning giving them until 2 PM to reach out to me and resolve this issue in the right way, which is to rid our home and family of this issue, not return what we paid for the cabin. There is a substantial price difference-$500 vs$2,000- which we can’t afford. We also cannot afford for this to trickle through our whole home and affect all 4 of our kids. One is already affected. The level of discomfort, irritation and lack of sleep I have had since this has been extreme. But the disappointment I feel from a“family owned” company handling theirselves this way is even more triggering to me. DO NOT TRUST THESE PEOPLE& DO NOT SLEEP IN THESE CABINS!! There are plenty of other places to float the Buffalo.
The 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.
Pool 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.
Lightning Bugs, Farmer's Markets, good food...oh my!
Site is level and by the creek. My GSD loved cooling off in the creek. I liked that our site had the fire pit in the gravel area of our site, some are outside. I wanted to touch on the to close reviews that had me worried. The sites are close but I didn’t feel that was an issue really. We didn’t feel cramped or like our neighbors were in our business. We will definitely come back.
Very clean with lots of activities for families. Highly recommend.
Beautiful campsite surround trees. Very quiet and secluded. There is water and electric hookups at each site and a dump station on the grounds as you leave. This was a very clean and safe campground. I loved being away from everything and in nature. Lots of trails to explore.
The park’s website says to use Google Maps, which we did with no issues getting to the state park area. We had never been here before, and the signage coming into the park concerning the campground(CG) was a little confusing, but we made it to the check-in office. Check-in was quick and the narrow passage into the CG where we were directed to go looked more like a wide walking path, but we were assured:“people drive big rigs in every day.” We made it on the narrow road through the trees, through the tent area, and around a somewhat sharp curve to get to back-in site 93 with 50/30/20 AMP and water. The back-in was a little interesting as we had to pull forward on the road to the left that goes to the bathhouse to get straight on our site and then back in. We tried the traditional back-in, but because of the immediate curve to the right after site 93, there was no way to pull forward on the main road and back-in. Plus there were too many trees, etc., to swing, and there was a tent site in the way. As with other State Parks we’ve stayed in, the pad length was a little shorter than advertised, but we got our 39’ 5th wheel and F450 on the site. A creek runs through the backside of the CG which made for a nice view off the back of our site. We were at the transition point to the mix of electric/water and FHU sites that also back up to the creek. We got 3 bars on Verizon and 2 bars on T-mobile. Satellite would not be a viable option with all the trees in this CG. There were three bathhouses with one having laundry. We decided to stay here as this state park has a golf course. Montgomery Bell is a large state park, and we did not make it to the golf course due to the weather plus we were only staying one night. With this CG being on the edge of big rig-friendly and windy roads to get here, it would be questionable whether we’d stay here again.

$5 fee assessed to make my own on-line reservation
NO senior discount
Campsites are Extremely packed together. Some sites have the neighbor's trailer slide out against their picnic table. Just doesn't make sense that the campground is slammed together when there are acres and acres of land here
Very narrow roadway through campground.
Very tight maneuvering to back into site.
No privacy from any other campsite
Not dark sky friendly due to huge street lights at all 3 toilet/shower facilities
Site 116 not level side to side
Most campsite trees bare by Halloween
Such a lovely place. You can rent canoes to fish or just spend the day on the water.
Great quiet place to camp. Secluded with great hiking trails. Loved the pool area with concessions.
Great 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.
Area 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.
I just feel like in this area you could find a better spot. Nice field near campsite. Hikers close by and idk about the bathroom situation but I couldn’t find them. Literally fine and clean though
We stayed in a full hookup site, with a creek behind us. Bathhouse was clean. Enjoyed the on site golf course and hiking trails.
Nice campground located on the Duck River in a TN state park. Enjoyed walking along the river. It is not secluded and is right off a local highway but has many conveniences. Across the street is the main park area with nice amenities -- kids playground, pool, disc golf, camp store, golf course and newly renovated park restaurant & visitor's center. Everyone that I came into contact with was friendly and helpful. It is a great place to relax but you still have many things to do.
