Getting to Cedar Point Campground requires navigating single-lane roads, so drivers with larger rigs should take their time on the approach. Managed by the Tennessee Valley Authority on the shores of Normandy Lake near Barton Springs Campground to the south, this drive-in and boat-in campground runs from April through October, with sites priced between $45 and $55 per night. Reservations are accepted, and the campground accommodates RVs up to 50 feet with electric and water hookups, plus a dump station on site.
Ten sites sit directly on the water, six of them wired for 50-amp service. Sites are well-spaced and grassy, with enough tree cover to provide shade. Tent campers should note that electric poles can be set back from the site, so bringing a long extension cord is a practical move. Some tent pads run slightly sloped, so it's worth walking a few spots before settling in. The campground has a sandy swimming beach, and canoe and kayak rentals are available on site. Anglers and paddlers get direct water access from lakeside sites.
Bathrooms draw mixed comments. Some visitors found them clean and well-maintained, while a longer-stay reviewer noted they were only cleaned once over three weeks. Michael T. describes the lake as "extremely quiet and calm," which holds up across multiple reviews. The campground skews toward seasonal campers, which means the atmosphere tends to be low-key rather than social. No laundry or playground is available on site, and the camp store is small. Cedar Point works best for anglers, paddlers, and RV travelers who want waterfront access with full hookups.
