Best Campgrounds near White House, TN

689 Reviews

Camping options near White House, Tennessee range from full-service RV resorts to rustic tent sites, with several established campgrounds within a 30-minute drive. The Nashville North KOA in Goodlettsville provides tent camping, RV sites with 50-amp hookups, and cabin rentals approximately 10 miles south of White House. Grand Ole RV Resort & Market offers similar accommodations with nightly live music, while Camp Nashville Highland Rim provides more secluded tent camping experiences for those seeking a natural setting with fewer amenities.

Reservations are strongly recommended at most developed campgrounds in the area, particularly during Nashville's busy tourism season and summer weekends. Several campgrounds remain open year-round, including Nashville North KOA and Grand Ole RV Resort, while others like Cedar Creek and Cages Bend operate seasonally from April to October. Highway access is generally good throughout the region, with most established campgrounds offering paved or gravel entrance roads suitable for standard vehicles. Train tracks run directly adjacent to some campgrounds, which can create noise concerns. One camper noted, "There are trains that operate 24/7 directly adjacent to the grounds. Trains rolling by at 3 am is not how I like to spend my night."

Proximity to Nashville remains a key attraction for many of the mixed-use campgrounds in the area, with multiple reviews mentioning the convenience of making day trips into the city. Several campgrounds offer shuttle services to downtown Nashville attractions during peak season. The campground environment varies significantly, from densely packed RV sites to more spacious settings. A visitor at Nashville North KOA observed, "The sites are very very close together. Very very noisy due to the highway that runs right on the other side of the tree line." For those seeking quieter surroundings, Camp Nashville Highland Rim provides a more secluded option with primitive tent camping, described by one reviewer as "rare camping near Nashville" due to city regulations that limit camping options close to the metropolitan area.

    Elm Hill RV Resort

    Beautiful Campground

    We stopped here for a quick overnight stop on our way back home

    It is definetly a park that they are stacked in close and open sky’s with not a lot of shade

    Everything was very clean and in great working order

    Kids loved swimming in the pool

    The water around is clear and beautiful

    We had a very lovely sunset as we walked around park

    Poole Knobs

    Bottom of my COE campgrounds

    First of all, I love COE campgrounds. They are usually clean, scenic, and have lots of space between campsites. Poole Knobs has all of that, but the bathrooms were ridiculously hard to get to. If you get a site along the lake, expect a long walk and then an arduous climb to the bathroom and showers or hop in your vehicle and drive there. Whoever laid out the design of this campground had obviously ever camped.

    COE Cordell Hull Lake Salt Lick Creek Campground

    Salt Lick Creek

    Overall, we enjoyed our experience. It's a nice campground. The site was small and we prefer more space and seclusion since we travel with dogs. We stayed in site 94, which was on the water and nicely shaded. There was no cell service. Our camper has a wifi booster so we were able to boost the signal to our phones from the nearby bathhouse that had wifi. The campground is very remote, but it doesn't feel remote because of how busy and open it feels.

    Very clean campground.

    This is a very nice, clean campground. Bathrooms are clean as well. Very nice view of Barren River lake too. I did not use it but there is a nice sand beach for swimming. Camphost is very nice.

    Walk to the Opry!

    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. Tidy sites, tons of them, something for everyone and then some. Paved roads the kids loved scootering on. Would definitely stay again

    COE Cordell Hull Lake Salt Lick Creek Campground

    Very disappointing

    What a disappointment and I’ve heard so many wonderful things about this campground. I checked in at the appropriate time. There was no one at the gate, no packet no information. I found my campsite and pulled in quite unlevel due to deep divots in the gravel… used baby wipes embedded in the gravel, foul trash in the fire ring, and the campsite had been vacant according to the website for at least a week Obviously no preparation had taken place. Never saw a Ranger never saw host. I left one day early only to find that they have listed me as a cancellation thereby excluding me from being able to leave a recommendation on their website I’ll not be returning.

Guide to White House

Camping options near White House, Tennessee span a 30-mile radius with sites situated between 400-650 feet in elevation. The Cumberland River watershed creates numerous lake camping opportunities with water temperatures reaching 80°F during summer months. Most campgrounds in the region maintain operating seasons from April through October, though several sites offer year-round availability.

What to do

Fishing access points: Cages Bend offers prime fishing locations along Old Hickory Lake with designated platforms. "We stayed in site 41. We were in town for an event and picked this site for the convenience to the exit. Turned out to be a great spot. It was quiet and clean. I think every site has some view of the lake, even if not directly," noted one visitor at Cages Bend.

Hiking trails: Cedar Creek provides multiple trail options connecting directly to campsites. "Most sites have a lovely view of the lake if not directly along the shore. Swimming beach, playground, and marina both within walking distance," reports a camper at Cedar Creek.

Swimming beaches: Seven Points campground maintains a designated swimming area with sandy beach during summer months. "We have stayed at Seven Points around Memorial Day for 3 years now. This year was fabulous! Love the improvements they have made and the clear out they did on some of the spots. We had great neighbors and enjoyed the beach!"

What campers like

Entertainment options: Regular live music performances happen at multiple campgrounds. "The Grand Ole RV Resort offers live free entertainment nightly and some of the most pleasant staff we have encountered," according to a review of Grand Ole RV Resort & Market.

Campsite privacy: Several campgrounds feature well-spaced sites with natural screening. "These campsites are great - nice and spread out and tucked in the woods. Plus, the campsites closest to the lakes are right on the water or across the road from the water, so great for fishing and gorgeous sunsets too!" states a camper at Seven Points.

Proximity to supplies: Many sites offer quick access to stores for forgotten items. "Bathrooms were super clean. Was able to get groceries and all I needed just 10 mins away," notes a visitor at Cedars of Lebanon State Park.

What you should know

Train noise considerations: Railroad tracks pass near several campgrounds. "This is a nice, easy access CG with level pull through and back-in gravel sites in Nashville. It is located within a loop of the Cumberland River, between two RV dealer/repair facilities and surrounded by two RV CGs- it's a busy area," reports a visitor at Two Rivers Campground.

Limited shade at some sites: Central camping areas often have less tree coverage. "We stayed in the center of the park, which didn't have much shade, but the outer edge sites seemed more wooded. The roads and campsites are made of small pebbles, which made it easy to drive and back in."

Seasonal wildlife concerns: Ticks become prevalent during warmer months. "Site 22 has a slightly declined slope and is right next to another site that is a pull through. It is also right next to the main road for the park. Vehicles drive relatively slow due to all the speed bumps. There are tons of deer at this park. Our dogs picked up ticks every day, and we had a few as well."
