Made in the Shade RV Park

30 RV Sites

Made in the Shade RV Park in Granville, Tennessee, offers 30 full-hookup back-in RV sites along the Cumberland River, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service, ADA-accessible sites, and rigs accepted to 50 feet. Open year-round, with a clubhouse, snack bar, dog park, and on-site dining on well-maintained grounds. Thirty full-hookup back-in sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 20, 30, and 50-amp, sized to 50 feet, with site WiFi. Accessible sites are available for guests who need them. A general store, laundry, restrooms, showers, and a snack bar handle the practical side, with on-site dining for meals. The park is open all year and welcomes pets. A clubhouse anchors the social side, with a playground, dog park, and walking trails across the grounds. Fishing runs from the river, with biking and picnicking from the property and planned activities through the season. Boating, a golf course, and a state park are nearby. Granville sits on the Cumberland River in Jackson County, a small historic town that has built a genuine visitor identity around its preserved main street and river setting — an unusually pleasant base for a stretch of Middle Tennessee that most travelers pass through rather than stop in. The park suits both weekend getaways and longer stays, and the year-round operation makes it viable well outside the summer window. Summer river recreation and October foliage drive the heaviest demand — reserve ahead for both, and expect Granville's event weekends to tighten availability.

Pets are welcome. One practical note for RV arrivals: GPS often routes you onto Mills Road after Exit 221 (Old Hickory Boulevard). Avoid that turn and follow the resort's posted RV directions instead. Summer is decisively the season. Reserve well ahead.

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.

Black House Mountain Campground

Black House Mountain Campground in Jamestown, Tennessee, offers full-hookup RV sites and cabins on a big-rig-friendly property in Fentress County, with a general store, showers, and WiFi on the Cumberland Plateau. Off-road riders can reach the Pickett Forest trailhead 4.5 miles up Black House Mountain Road, directly across from the campground. Full-hookup RV sites and cabin accommodations serve both RV travelers and guests without a rig, on a layout sized for big rigs. A general store stocks basics, firewood is available, and restrooms, showers, and WiFi cover the practical side. The setting is forest and mountain, with walking trails running the property and picnicking areas across the grounds. The off-road access is the distinguishing practical feature — the Pickett Forest trailhead sits 4.5 miles up the road opposite the campground, so 4x4 and ATV guests can ride from camp rather than trailering out. Boating and creek access are nearby. Pets are welcome. The surrounding landscape is the most spectacular canyon country on the Cumberland Plateau. Pogue Creek Canyon State Natural Area, Pickett State Park, and the Big South Fork National River and Recreation Area are all close, holding deep sandstone gorges, carved slot canyons, and natural arches and bridges in a concentration unmatched elsewhere in the Tennessee plateau. To reach the campground from Jamestown, take Highway 127 to Pickett Park Highway (154N) and travel northeast for 9.8 miles; the campground is on the right. The campground serves the Cumberland Plateau season, with fall color in October the most spectacular window and summer carrying the heaviest river and trail traffic. Reserve ahead for both.

Dino Valley RV Park

59 RV Sites

Dino Valley RV Park in Cave City, Kentucky, offers 59 full-hookup deluxe pull-through RV sites with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 50 feet, open all year behind a gated entrance. Every site is the same deluxe pull-through spec, engineered with slide-out clearance on both sides of the pad. Fifty-nine sites are deluxe pull-through throughout, carrying water, sewer, and electric on 20, 30, and 50-amp with site WiFi, sized to 50 feet. A single-category, all-pull-through layout means no backing at any site and no guessing about what you booked — and the deliberate slide-out clearance on both sides is an engineering decision most parks never make. If you have ever had to choose which side of your rig gets to open, this is the fix. A laundry, restrooms, showers, firewood, personal mailboxes, and a gated entrance handle the practical side. A dog park sits on the grounds. The amenity set is deliberately spare, which keeps rates reasonable and suits a park built as a comfortable, modern base rather than a destination in itself. Pets are welcome. Cave City sits in the Mammoth Cave corridor — the longest known cave system on Earth, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and one of the most geologically significant regions in the United States. The park entrance is minutes away, with the Green River, Dinosaur World, and Barren River Lake close, and a golf course and boating nearby. Summer is decisively the season at Mammoth Cave, when the park fills and cave tours book out. Reserve well ahead for June through August, with far easier availability in the shoulders.

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.

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.

Twin Creeks RV Resort

30 RV Sites

On the shores of Tims Ford Lake in Winchester, Tennessee—one hour south of Nashville in Franklin County where Tims Ford's 10,700-acre impoundment on the Elk River created the reservoir that the Middle Tennessee highland rim landscape cradles in the specific blue-water-against-cedar-covered-ridgeline composition that Middle Tennessee lake country produces when the limestone geology meets a TVA reservoir—Twin Creeks RV Resort provides 30 full hookup lakefront and waterview RV sites, 12 lakefront cottages, the floating Drafts & Watercrafts restaurant at Twin Creeks Marina, boat rentals, and the adult-oriented resort character that makes Tims Ford Lake's most amenity-complete campground a destination rather than a transit stop. The floating restaurant, the marina's boat fleet, and the lakefront site positions define what makes Twin Creeks distinctive in the Middle Tennessee campground market. Thirty full hookup pull-in RV sites—all large, newly paved, and level with picnic tables and 30/50-amp electric, water, and sewer at each position—offer the waterfront and waterview lake positions that Tims Ford's still, clear lake surface makes the primary site amenity rather than a descriptive upgrade. Free WiFi covers the property for streaming and remote work. A clean bathhouse with modern restrooms and facilities serves the hygiene infrastructure. A Trading Post stocked with propane, ice, ice cream, beverages, snacks, and RV essentials handles the daily supply need without requiring a Winchester drive. Twelve lakefront cottages with private bathrooms and lake views accommodate the guests traveling without RVs who want the most directly waterfront accommodation experience the property offers. Drafts & Watercrafts—the floating restaurant and bar at Twin Creeks Marina adjacent to the resort—provides lakeside dining, signature cocktails, and the sunset-watching infrastructure that a Tims Ford evening specifically rewards. The marina provides boat rentals and fuel for guests exploring Tims Ford's 247 miles of shoreline by water rather than by foot. The lake's fishing population includes bass, crappie, walleye, and catfish in the warm shallower sections and trout in the cold-water discharges below the Tims Ford Dam where the deep reservoir's bottom water creates the tailwater thermal gradient. Tims Ford State Park, adjacent to the reservoir, provides the hiking trails, picnic grounds, and managed wildlife habitat that give the lake's public lands the natural recreation access the resort's wooded shoreline position supplements. Jack Daniel's Distillery in Lynchburg—the most-visited whiskey distillery in the United States—is a 45-minute drive east, providing the Tennessee whiskey tourism that makes Franklin County a culturally specific destination for travelers interested in American craft spirits history. The historic downtown Winchester Square provides the local dining, shopping, and county seat civic architecture that the surrounding Franklin County landscape's agricultural character makes the commercial center for. Twin Creeks RV Resort is open seasonally on the Tims Ford Lake schedule. Summer lake recreation from May through September represents the peak demand period for both waterfront RV sites and cottages. Reservations fill early for summer weekends and holiday periods when Nashville-area residents specifically seek the 60-minute escape that Tims Ford provides from the city's summer heat. Book your waterfront site, arrange the boat rental, and let the Drafts & Watercrafts sunset hour earn the specific Middle Tennessee lake experience that one hour south of Nashville makes unexpectedly complete.

Clearwater Cove RV Resort

47 RV Sites

On the shores of Tims Ford Lake in Winchester, Tennessee—in Franklin County where the Tennessee Valley Authority's Tims Ford Dam impounds the Elk River in one of the clearest reservoirs in the state, creating the 10,700-acre lake whose crystalline water, limestone bluffs, and forested shoreline make it consistently among the most visually striking TVA lakes in the Southeast—Clearwater Cove RV Resort offers spacious full hookup sites with 30 and 50-amp service, complimentary WiFi, a swimming pool, hot showers, laundry, a dog park, a modern boat ramp with direct Tims Ford Lake access, golf cart rentals, picnic areas, fire rings, and an outdoor fireplace in a premier Winchester campground whose lakefront position and top-rated amenity quality deliver the Tims Ford experience that the surrounding Franklin County communities have built the region's outdoor recreation identity around. The water is as clear as the name promises. All sites provide full hookup service with 30 and 50-amp electric, water, and sewer alongside the complimentary WiFi, fire rings, and picnic areas that make each site genuinely functional as an outdoor living space rather than simply a parking pad with utilities. A swimming pool supplements the lake swimming for guests who prefer managed water recreation, and the modern boat ramp's direct Tims Ford Lake access enables the fishing, skiing, and the lake exploration that guests with their own watercraft come specifically to use. Golf cart rentals facilitate property navigation for guests whose sites are further from the lake amenities, and the dog park provides enclosed exercise space for the traveling pets whose owners find the lakefront environment particularly rewarding for the wildlife watching and the morning walks along the shore. Dippin' Dots ice cream and the outdoor fireplace add the social and comfort details that a resort-quality campground provides. Winchester sits in Franklin County on the Elk River watershed where the Cumberland Plateau's escarpment and the Highland Rim's rolling terrain create the geographic setting that Tims Ford Lake occupies. The lake's clarity—maintained by the limestone geology of the Elk River watershed and the relatively undeveloped shoreline that TVA's management policies have preserved—creates the aquatic environment whose visibility distinguishes Tims Ford from the more turbid impoundments that Tennessee's agricultural watersheds produce. The lake's striped bass, largemouth bass, and crappie fishery draws anglers to the clear-water environment where fish are visible at depths that other Tennessee lakes obscure. Tims Ford State Park, adjacent to the Clearwater Cove area, extends the public recreation infrastructure with hiking trails, picnic facilities, and additional lake access in the TVA-managed environment that surrounds the reservoir's most scenic sections. Sewanee: The University of the South, 15 miles east on the Cumberland Plateau, occupies the 13,000-acre Domain in gothic sandstone architecture on the forested escarpment—one of the most distinctive university campuses in the South. Jack Daniel's Distillery in Lynchburg, 30 miles north, and the Franklin County courthouse square in Winchester provide the cultural infrastructure accessible on a day trip from the resort. Clearwater Cove RV Resort operates year-round in Franklin County's moderate Tennessee climate, with the prime boating and fishing season from April through October and the cooler fall and spring months providing the most comfortable conditions for the resort's lake access amenities. The Tims Ford Lake striper fishing peaks in the fall from October through December when the striped bass school in the lake's deeper channels in patterns that the local guide boat community tracks and that shore anglers can intercept from the resort's boat ramp. Reserve your lakeside site at Clearwater Cove and let Tims Ford Lake's extraordinary clarity, the full hookup infrastructure, and Franklin County's Highland Rim position make Winchester the Tennessee lake destination the resort's top-rated reputation consistently earns.

Off the Hook RV Campground

5 RV Sites

In Nancy, Kentucky—in Pulaski County in south-central Kentucky's Lake Cumberland corridor where the 101-mile reservoir on the Cumberland River creates the largest Army Corps of Engineers lake east of the Mississippi by surface area, the most extensive freshwater boating and fishing destination in the region, and the resort community that the 1,200-plus miles of Lake Cumberland's shoreline has built into the houseboat capital of the world—Off the Hook RV Campground, a Streamside Parks property, provides 31 spacious full hookup sites with 20, 30, and 50-amp service on level gravel pads to 50 feet, fire rings and picnic tables at every site, WiFi, 24-hour showers and laundry, a playground, a shaded gazebo, a catch-and-release pond, a ropes-style obstacle course, and complimentary seasonal live music and activities, all less than one mile from Lake Cumberland's shoreline and the 1,200 miles of coves, bays, and forested shoreline that the reservoir's houseboat and pontoon boat culture organizes around. One mile from Lake Cumberland. Obstacle course. Free seasonal music. The 31 full hookup sites—gravel pads to 50 feet with 20, 30, and 50-amp electric, water, and sewer—accommodate the full range from the travel trailer to the large fifth wheel or Class A in the Pulaski County campground configuration that the Lake Cumberland outdoor community's RV travel style favors. Each site provides a fire ring and picnic table, and WiFi covers the campground property. The 24-hour shower and laundry access accommodates the lake-day schedule that doesn't always align with the standard check-in and check-out window, and the playground, shaded gazebo, and catch-and-release pond provide the on-property activity for the non-lake morning. The ropes-style obstacle course adds the physical challenge activity that the elementary-school age camper finds engaging between swimming and fishing excursions, and the complimentary seasonal live music evenings create the campground's social calendar without the event-ticket cost. Nancy sits in Pulaski County on KY-80 east of Somerset, in the Lake Cumberland State Resort Park corridor between the lake's Waitsboro and Burnside areas. The lake's 101-mile length and the 1,200-plus miles of shoreline that the Army Corps of Engineers' Wolf Creek Dam on the Cumberland River created in 1951 produce the inland sea character that Lake Cumberland's houseboat fleet—one of the largest concentrations of houseboats in the United States—occupies from spring through fall. The Somerset-Pulaski County waterfront marinas, the Lake Cumberland State Resort Park's lodge and cottages, and the commercial outfitters operating from the Jamestown and Russell County ends of the lake create the recreation infrastructure that the Off the Hook's less-than-one-mile proximity accesses directly. Daniel Boone National Forest, whose eastern boundary passes through Pulaski County, provides 708,000 acres of eastern Kentucky mountain terrain—the Red River Gorge Geological Area and Natural Bridge State Resort Park, both accessible within 90 minutes north on US-27, represent the national forest's most dramatic sandstone arch and canyon landscapes. Mill Springs Battlefield National Monument, 20 miles east, preserves the January 1862 battle site where Union forces decisively defeated the Confederate Army of Central Kentucky—the battlefield museum, the overshot mill, and the monument to General Felix Zollicoffer create the Civil War experience in the Lake Cumberland corridor. Off the Hook RV Campground operates year-round in Pulaski County's temperate Kentucky climate, with the Lake Cumberland boating season from April through October the primary camping window and the spring fishing tournament season—the lake's largemouth and smallmouth bass, walleye, and crappie fishing attracting the tournament circuit from March through June—the most active angling period. Reserve your site at Off the Hook and let the obstacle course, the seasonal live music, and Lake Cumberland's 1,200 miles of houseboat-covered shoreline deliver the south-central Kentucky lake experience that Pulaski County's most complete RV campground provides.

Escape With Us RV Resort

26 RV Sites

Escape With Us RV Resort in Somerset, Kentucky, brings full-hookup RV infrastructure and resort-quality attention to detail to the Lake Cumberland corridor in Pulaski County — a campground that distinguishes itself from the region's functional waterfront parks through thoughtful amenity choices like the Meadowland Mercantile, an on-site market stocked with camping essentials, local goods, and a fresh herb garden that guests can harvest directly. The resort's position minutes from Lake Cumberland and central Somerset makes it both an outdoor recreation base and a comfortable longer-stay address for travelers who want to stay awhile in one of southern Kentucky's most rewarding lake environments. Each RV site is designed for hassle-free arrival and setup, with full hookup service appropriate for any configuration of motorhome or travel trailer. A dedicated dog park serves pet-owning guests who are traveling with dogs and want the structure of an enclosed exercise space, and on-site laundry handles the practical needs of extended-stay guests through the cleaning cycles that multi-week trips require. Boat and RV storage availability addresses the logistics that guests trailering watercraft to Lake Cumberland specifically need, making the resort a practical base not just for overnight stays but for the longer-term arrangements that regular Lake Cumberland visitors make when they return season after season. Pets are welcome. Lake Cumberland, impounded by Wolf Creek Dam on the Cumberland River in 1952, spans over 57,000 acres with more than 1,200 miles of shoreline through Russell, Pulaski, Wayne, and Clinton Counties — a reservoir of such size that guests who spend multiple days exploring its numerous arms, coves, and hidden inlets consistently find sections they haven't visited before. The combination of deep, clear water, productive bass and walleye fisheries, and the region's strong houseboat rental industry makes Lake Cumberland one of Kentucky's premier water recreation destinations and the primary engine of Pulaski County's tourism economy. Mill Springs Battlefield National Monument, commemorating the January 1862 Union victory that was the first significant Federal success in the western theater of the Civil War, interprets the battle through well-produced exhibits, original artifacts, and a self-guided driving tour of the preserved battlefield terrain along the Cumberland River bluffs. The site's interpretive quality exceeds what most visitors expect from a relatively recent National Monument designation, and the Cumberland River setting lends physical drama to the historical narrative. Downtown Somerset, with its Courthouse Square, independent dining, and the cultural programming of the Pulaski County Arts Center, provides the evening destination option for guests whose Lake Cumberland days end with an appetite for town rather than camp. Escape With Us RV Resort operates year-round in Kentucky's relatively mild southern climate, with summer bringing peak lake recreation demand and the houseboat rental season in full swing on Lake Cumberland. Fall is an excellent alternative window — the lake's coves reflect the surrounding hardwood foliage beautifully in October, fishing pressure drops significantly from summer peaks, and the resort's amenities are fully operational without the summer crowds. Reserve ahead for summer holiday weekends and Memorial Day through Labor Day, when Lake Cumberland's accommodation inventory across Pulaski County competes with visitor demand from Kentucky, Tennessee, and the surrounding region.
