Elm Hill RV Resort

Nashville is many things — the country music capital, a culinary destination, a bachelorette party hub, a city of unexpected depth and creativity. What it isn't, by reputation, is a city with a 14,000-acre lake lined with sandy beaches and marinas twelve miles from Lower Broadway. That's the hidden advantage of Elm Hill RV Resort, a lakefront property on J. Percy Priest Lake that makes it entirely possible to spend your mornings on the water and your evenings on the Honky Tonk Highway. Every site at Elm Hill RV Resort is a full hookup site built on a level concrete pad, with 50-amp electric service, water, sewer, basic cable TV, and complimentary Wi-Fi. Each site includes its own fire pit and picnic table, bringing that essential campfire element to what otherwise feels like an upscale resort. Pull-through availability makes arrival simple for large rigs. The on-site marina, golf cart rentals, propane fill service, and gated entry complete a setup that handles both practical needs and leisurely wants in equal measure. Percy Priest Lake provides the natural centerpiece of the Elm Hill experience. The resort's private sandy beach is the gathering place on warm afternoons — swimming in the lake, lounging in the sun, and watching boats cruise in and out of the marina. On-site boat, kayak, and paddleboard rentals mean you don't need to bring your own watercraft to enjoy the full 14,000-acre playground. The boat docks accommodate guests who do bring their own. A covered playground with nearby seating for parents overlooks the water, and shuffleboard and cornhole courts provide easygoing entertainment for all ages. A brand-new bathhouse and laundry facilities round out the amenities. Nashville's magnetic pull means you'll spend at least a few evenings off-property. Lower Broadway's honky-tonks, the Grand Ole Opry, the Country Music Hall of Fame, and the Ryman Auditorium are all within a 12-mile drive. The city's food scene — from legendary hot chicken to farm-to-table fine dining — is reason enough to plan a trip. For nature lovers, Percy Priest Lake offers dozens of additional access points for hiking, additional launch sites, and quiet coves to explore by kayak. The lake's shoreline parks — including Long Hunter State Park — provide miles of well-maintained trails through cedar glade habitat that is ecologically unique to the Middle Tennessee Nashville Basin. Elm Hill RV Resort is open year-round, and the shoulder seasons of spring and fall are particularly rewarding — the lake is peaceful, the summer crowds have thinned, and Nashville's live music calendar never really slows down. Whether you're here for a weekend of lake life and live music or a longer stay to explore everything Music City has to offer, Elm Hill makes an exceptional home base. Book your site today and stake your claim to that private sandy beach before someone else does.

Clarksville RV Resort

39 RV Sites, 2 Cabins

Clarksville RV Resort in Clarksville, Tennessee, is a comfortable camping destination in Montgomery County — a welcoming campground in the Cumberland River city that connects the Land Between the Lakes' outdoor recreation to the northwest, the Nashville musical and cultural corridor to the southeast, and Fort Campbell's military community to the immediate west in a northwest Tennessee position that gives guests the most diverse and most contrasting day-trip range of any campground in the Tennessee-Kentucky border region. Clarksville's Montgomery County position on the Cumberland River, 45 miles northwest of Nashville, gives the resort the practical access to Music City's entertainment and cultural institutions while maintaining the quieter residential city character of Tennessee's fifth-largest city. Full-hookup RV sites with modern amenities and the comfortable camping infrastructure give Clarksville RV Resort the complete practical base for both the Nashville day-trip market and the Land Between the Lakes and Kentucky Lake recreation access that the northwest Tennessee position enables within a 40-mile radius of the resort. The campground's Clarksville position gives guests the specific between-the-destinations character of a campground positioned equidistant from multiple major visitor draws that individually justify the drive but together create the multi-day itinerary that the Clarksville base specifically enables. Pets are welcome. Land Between the Lakes National Recreation Area, 35 miles northwest of Clarksville in Stewart and Trigg Counties, Tennessee, and Lyon and Trigg Counties, Kentucky, is the 170,000-acre peninsula between Lake Barkley and Kentucky Lake that the federal government created from the Tennova and Duncan Creek communities flooded by TVA's Kentucky Dam completion in 1944 — a recreation area whose Elk and Bison Prairie's restored native ungulate herd, the Golden Pond Planetarium, and the Homeplace living history farm from the 1850s give the peninsula the ecological and cultural depth of a nationally significant recreation area that the Kentucky-Tennessee border's largest lake complex surrounds on both sides. Nashville, 45 miles southeast of Clarksville on Interstate 24, is the center of the American country music industry and one of the most rapidly growing and most visited cities in the South — a city whose Lower Broadway honky-tonk corridor, the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum's three-building complex, the Ryman Auditorium's 1943-built home of the Grand Ole Opry, and the Nashville Sounds baseball at First Horizon Park give the Music City day trip the entertainment programming depth that the national country music pilgrimage market has sustained for 80 years of Grand Ole Opry broadcasting. Clarksville RV Resort serves guests year-round in Montgomery County's temperate Tennessee climate, with the spring outdoor recreation season from March through May, the summer land and lake recreation from June through August, and the fall foliage and Nashville concert season from September through November sustaining the campground's full-year guest rotation. Fort Campbell, straddling the Tennessee-Kentucky border immediately west of Clarksville, is the home of the U.S. Army's 101st Airborne Division — the famous Screaming Eagles whose WWII legacy at Normandy, Market Garden, and Bastogne, and the division's contemporary operations give Fort Campbell the largest airborne division in the active Army alongside the Don F. Pratt Museum's military heritage collection. Reserve sites ahead for major Nashville events, CMA Fest, and the summer Land Between the Lakes peak season.

Red Coach Resort

20 RV Sites

Red Coach Resort in Toney, Alabama, occupies 81 acres of natural woodland in northern Alabama's fastest-growing technological corridor, placing guests nine minutes from I-65 and within reach of Huntsville's NASA and aerospace industry complex in a setting of towering hardwood trees, wildlife habitat, and the meandering creek channels that give the property its natural character. Positioned in Madison County's suburban fringe where genuine natural landscape persists between the rapid commercial and residential development that has transformed the Huntsville area in recent decades, the resort provides a green retreat from one of the South's most economically dynamic urban environments. The resort's 81-acre footprint accommodates full hookup RV sites with well-spaced positioning that takes advantage of the property's natural tree cover, alongside a recreation center, swimming pool, koi pond, walking trails, playground, and a beach area that collectively create a resort atmosphere despite the property's proximity to major interstate infrastructure. The on-site facilities reflect a genuine investment in guest experience rather than a minimum-amenity approach, and the combination of tree-shaded sites and organized recreational amenities serves both short-term travelers using I-65 for north-south movement and longer-stay guests based in the Huntsville area for work assignments or extended family visits. The Alabama-Tennessee border corridor surrounding Toney represents one of the more unusual landscapes in the American South—a zone where traditional agricultural character and small-town Alabama culture coexist with the high-technology economy of Redstone Arsenal, Cummings Research Park, and the aerospace and defense contractors that have made Huntsville the self-described Rocket City. The surrounding terrain is gently rolling Appalachian foothill country where limestone bedrock creates the karst topography typical of northern Alabama, with seasonal wildflower displays and abundant wildlife typical of the oak-hickory forests that cover the property and surrounding undeveloped land. Huntsville, approximately 20 minutes south of Toney via I-65, anchors one of the South's most impressive attraction rosters for a city of its size. The U.S. Space and Rocket Center—NASA's official visitor complex at Marshall Space Flight Center—houses the most comprehensive space exploration exhibit in the world, including the full-scale Space Shuttle Pathfinder orbiter, Saturn V rocket components, and interactive exhibits covering every era of American space exploration. The Von Braun Center provides entertainment programming, and Huntsville's revitalized downtown Lowe Mill Arts and Entertainment complex houses one of the largest private arts facilities in the South in a converted cotton mill. The Tennessee state line and Nashville's 90-minute drive north open additional cultural options. Red Coach Resort operates year-round in northern Alabama's moderate climate, with the spring and fall seasons representing the most comfortable outdoor conditions and summer's heat moderated somewhat by the property's mature tree canopy and pool access. The resort's proximity to both I-65 and Huntsville's comprehensive visitor infrastructure makes it viable for every type of guest from the one-night through-traveler to the seasonal visitor spending weeks in the area for family, work, or sightseeing purposes. Reservations during Space Camp sessions and major aerospace industry events at Redstone Arsenal can fill local accommodation inventory quickly, making advance contact advisable for those windows.

Quiet Woods Green River Stables

10 RV Sites

Offering full-hookup RV camping with an equestrian dimension uncommon in standard campground offerings, Quiet Woods Green River Stables in Campbellsville, Kentucky, serves a dual audience of guests drawn to the natural scenery and outdoor recreation of the Green River Lake area and those arriving with horses seeking proper stable facilities alongside comfortable hookup camping in a peaceful south-central Kentucky woodland setting. The campground's proximity to Mammoth Cave National Park—one of Kentucky's most visited natural destinations—and the Green River Lake State Park recreation corridor gives it a strong regional position for guests whose itinerary extends beyond the immediate property. Full hookup RV sites with electrical, water, and sewer service accommodate standard recreational vehicles, and an on-site Airbnb provides an alternative accommodation format for guests who want a fixed-roof lodging experience within the same property. Equestrian facilities with stall and pasture accommodations serve guests arriving with horses for trail riding in the surrounding Green River countryside—a feature that addresses a genuine gap in standard RV park amenities in the south-central Kentucky region. Modern restroom and shower facilities, on-site trails, and a management approach oriented toward personalized guest service round out the campground's offering for guests seeking a quiet and comfortable Kentucky woodland stay. Green River Lake, formed by the US Army Corps of Engineers dam on the Green River southeast of Campbellsville, encompasses over 8,200 acres of surface water in a protected watershed that supports fishing for largemouth bass, crappie, white bass, catfish, and bluegill across a productive reservoir in Taylor and Adair Counties. Green River Lake State Park provides marina services, boat launch access, campground infrastructure, hiking trails, and beach swimming facilities on the reservoir's eastern shoreline, making it a full-service state park recreation destination accessible within a practical drive from Quiet Woods. The Green River itself—downstream of the lake—flows toward Mammoth Cave National Park on a section of the river famous for cave country scenery and float fishing opportunities. Mammoth Cave National Park, accessible from Campbellsville via US Highway 68 or the Cumberland Parkway, is Kentucky's most visited natural destination and the site of the world's longest known cave system—more than 400 miles of mapped passages in a limestone karst landscape whose surface features of sinkholes, springs, and bluffs reflect the dramatic subsurface dissolution of the Mississippian limestone bedrock beneath south-central Kentucky. Cave tours ranging from accessible historic routes to demanding wild cave crawls give visitors a range of underground experience options, and the park's surface trail system through the floodplain forests of the Green River valley provides additional natural area recreation for guests whose interests extend beyond the cave itself. Quiet Woods Green River Stables is open through the warm-weather camping season, with the Kentucky climate supporting comfortable outdoor access from spring through fall. Fishing on Green River Lake is most productive in spring and early summer when bass and crappie are active near the shallows, and Mammoth Cave operates tours year-round with consistent underground temperatures around 54 degrees regardless of surface weather. The campground's equestrian amenities make it particularly appealing for guest groups combining trail riding with lake recreation and cave exploration across a multi-night south-central Kentucky stay. Advance reservations are recommended for summer holiday weekends when regional outdoor recreation demand peaks.

Rockwood Marina & RV Resort

77 RV Sites

Rockwood Marina and RV Resort in Tennessee offers 77 full-hookup RV sites on 1.5 miles of Watts Bar Lake shoreline, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted up to 105 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout. Beachfront, lakefront, premium lakefront, poolside, and poolside waterview categories name exactly what you are booking, alongside a marina, boat ramp, and fishing pier. Seventy-seven sites span beachfront back-in, lakefront back-in, lakefront pull-in, premium lakefront back-in, poolside back-in, poolside waterview back-in, pull-thru, and waterfront categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp, sized to 105 feet, with fire pits. Naming every category by its position is genuinely useful, and 105 feet accommodates the longest coaches on the road. A general store, laundry, and restrooms handle the practical side. The marina is the anchor, with boat docks, a boat ramp, and a fishing pier giving direct access to Watts Bar for boating and fishing. An outdoor pool, sandy beach, pavilion, and on-site dining fill the rest. Pets are welcome. The resort opened in summer 2023 as one of the most ambitious marina-integrated campground developments in the Tennessee Valley, and it shows in the facilities — everything is new. Watts Bar is a 39,000-acre TVA reservoir in Roane County between Knoxville and Chattanooga. Summer lake season drives the heaviest demand. Reserve well ahead for Memorial Day through Labor Day weekends, with spring and fall fishing strong and considerably easier availability.

Timberline Glamping at Lake Guntersville

7 Glamping Sites

Timberline Glamping at Lake Guntersville brings upscale outdoor accommodations to the shores of one of Alabama's most beloved recreational lakes, combining comfort-forward glamping units with the natural splendor of Lake Guntersville State Park's 6,000-acre reserve of forested bluffs and Tennessee River impoundment. Positioned inside the state park, this property offers a genuinely immersive lakeside experience that removes the boundary between accommodation and landscape—guests don't travel to nature here; they sleep inside it. The glamping units provide prepared sleeping accommodations suited to guests who want the sensory experience of lakeside camping without the setup requirements of traditional tent or RV travel. State park amenities accessible to guests include a splash pad for younger visitors, a sandy swimming beach with supervised water access, a boat ramp connecting directly to Lake Guntersville, and a dedicated dog park for pet-traveling families. The combination of structured outdoor programming and open natural space makes the property effective for multi-generational trips that need to serve both small children and adults who want to explore independently. Lake Guntersville is a 69,100-acre Tennessee Valley Authority reservoir with a shoreline that winds through Marshall County's wooded ridges and agricultural bottomlands for more than 900 miles. The lake's clear, productive waters support populations of largemouth and spotted bass that have made Guntersville one of the premier bass fishing destinations in the United States, with multiple professional tournament wins validating what local anglers have known for generations. Bald eagles winter here in remarkable numbers from November through February, with concentrations along the dam and river channel that draw wildlife photographers and birding enthusiasts from across the Southeast. The surrounding state park protects ridge-top hardwood forests with hiking and mountain biking trails that offer sweeping views over the lake from multiple overlooks, and the park's golf course and marina provide additional on-site recreation options. The city of Guntersville and its surrounding Marshall County communities offer marinas, lakeside restaurants, and water sport outfitter services for guests who want to supplement the park experience with guided fishing trips or pontoon rentals. NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville—approximately one hour west via US-431—adds one of the country's most impressive space exploration attractions, with the U.S. Space and Rocket Center's indoor exhibits and full-size rocket displays providing a memorable family day trip. Timberline Glamping is open from spring through fall, with the warmest months bringing peak demand for beach and water amenities and the November-February eagle season drawing a quieter but enthusiastic wildlife-watching crowd. Summer reservations fill well in advance, particularly for weekend stays during fishing tournament season and warm weather months when the splash pad and swimming beach are in full operation. The property's combination of prepared glamping accommodations, state park infrastructure, and Lake Guntersville's exceptional outdoor recreation makes it one of the more distinctive camping options in northern Alabama. Spring migration birding, when neotropical warblers pass through Marshall County's forests in May, adds a compelling seasonal draw for wildlife enthusiasts who want to combine lake recreation with high-quality birding in one of the Southeast's most productive migratory corridors.

Serendipity Resort & Campground

Golf cart rentals, on-site dining, and a bar serve guests in the Hatchie River corridor of West Tennessee.

Check-in is 3:00pm and check-out 11:00am. Note that four-wheelers and side-by-sides are not permitted, though golf carts are available to rent — contact the resort for rates. The water is the draw.
