Nashville RV and Cabins Resort

Two Rivers Campground

Private

Great views and setting are undercut by tightly packed in spaces which, combined with there being a majority of BIG fifth wheels and class As made one feel packed in a canyon of campers rather than being able to soak in the lake and environs. Mixed with a lack of ammenities and no real culture or vibe made for a disappointing stay in spite of the alluring setting. 

On a constructive note, they also allow far too many vehicles in - many spots had tow vehicles plus a daily driver in the tight spots and road - added to the sense of congestion. 

On a more positive note, in warmer months, boating on the lake would be very convenient, the campground was clean and well maintained, and it’s all an easy and quick 20 minute drive into downtown Nashville!

**Note that the campground was open in  March despite the alert on here saying it’s closed until April. **

Stayed 3 nights in sites 12 and 13 on our way across the country.  Super clean and very well maintained.  Just a short Lyft ride into the city.  

Road trip stop

Good views but nothing else is all that great.
