Nashville Shores Lakeside Resort

49 RV Sites, 23 Cabins

Nashville Shores Lakeside Resort offers 49 RV sites and 23 cabins on Percy Priest Lake in Nashville, with 20, 30, and 50-amp full hookups, cable TV, and rigs accepted to 45 feet, behind a gated entrance. Lakefront premium and lake view categories join a water park, zip line, lazy river, and marina. Forty-nine sites span standard, lake view, lakefront premium, and pull-through categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric on 20, 30, and 50-amp with cable TV and site WiFi, sized to 45 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. The lakefront premium category is worth requesting early. Twenty-three cabins round out the lodging. A general store, boutique shop, laundry, restrooms, showers, firewood, and boat storage handle the practical side. Recreation is extensive. A full water park, lazy river, and zip line anchor the summer, with a marina, beach, boat rentals, and kayak rentals putting guests on the lake for boating, fishing, paddle boarding, and water sports. A library, walking trails, sports courts, volleyball, horseshoes, corn hole, a playground, pavilion, dog park, on-site dining, and a snack bar fill the rest, with live music and planned activities through the season and strong stargazing over the water. 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.

Dedicated fifth wheel categories are genuinely uncommon and worth knowing about if that is what you tow. Six boat bungalows and tiny houses plus cabins round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side. Check-in is 2pm and checkout noon, with early and late options for a fee. The marina anchors the property, with boat rentals opening the lake for boating, paddle boarding, canoeing, kayaking, water sports, and fishing. An outdoor pool, fitness center, clubhouse, sports courts, pickleball, basketball, golf cart rentals, hiking, biking, a playground, pavilion, dog park, on-site dining, and a bar fill the rest, with live music through the season.

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.

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.

Myers Landing RV Resort

12 RV Sites, 8 Motel Rooms

Myers Landing RV Resort in Springville, TN, offers 12 full-hookup RV sites and 8 motel rooms, with 50-amp service and back-in sites for rigs up to 45 feet. Every site is a back-in carrying water, sewer, and electric with site-delivered WiFi. Note the electrical: the resort runs 50-amp service, so a rig wired for lighter service will need an adapter. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, and eight motel rooms for guests without a rig cover the rest. Pets are welcome. An outdoor pool, a game room, a pavilion, a playground, volleyball, and corn hole fill the grounds — a lot of amenity for 12 sites. Springville sits on the western shore of Kentucky Lake in Henry County, where the Tennessee River's impoundment creates one of the largest and most productive inland recreation lakes in the eastern United States, with boating right there. Rates for sites and rooms are on the booking page. Twelve sites on Kentucky Lake means summer fills fast — reserve ahead.

An outdoor pool anchors the summer, with a creek and pond supporting fishing, and walking trails, hiking, a playground, pavilion, and picnicking filling the grounds. Pets are welcome.

Harmony Ridge RV Park

7 RV Sites

Harmony Ridge RV Park in Linden, Tennessee, offers 7 full-hookup RV sites on laser-leveled ridgetop sites with sweeping southern views, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 80 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout. Individually named sites — several designated Big Rig — join walking trails, a community fire pit, and dark-sky stargazing. Seven sites are named individually rather than pooled into tiers, spanning full-hookup Big Rig and full-hookup standard designations, all carrying water, sewer, and electric with site WiFi, sized to 80 feet, with fire pits. Naming each site and flagging which handle big rigs is unusually transparent for a park this size — you know exactly which pad you are booking. Eighty feet accommodates the longest coaches with a tow. A dump station, firewood, and community fire pit handle the practical side. The park is LGBTIQA+ friendly. Walking trails run the property, with hiking, exceptional stargazing, and productive birding. Boating and wine tasting are nearby. The laser-leveled pads are worth noting — on a ridgetop, level is not a given, and it saves a lot of blocking. Pets are welcome. One navigation note: the park recently rebranded from Linden Camp and new signage is still being installed, so do not be thrown if you see the old name on arrival. Perry County sits in the Tennessee Valley's mid-state hill country, where the Buffalo River runs undammed for 120 miles — a Nature Conservancy-designated corridor and one of the best canoe and kayak floats in the state. Nashville is about 90 minutes east. Spring and fall are most comfortable. Reserve ahead.

Waters Edge RV Park & Marina - Murray

23 RV Sites

Waters Edge RV Park & Marina in Murray, KY, offers 23 full-hookup back-in RV sites with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 50 feet.

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.

Holiday Hills Resort in Eddyville, KY, offers 7 RV sites and 13 apartment, cabin, house, and treehouse rentals, with 30 and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 60 feet. Sites come in two categories, standard back-in and lakeview back-in, each carrying water and electric with a fire pit and picnic table. There's no sewer at the site, so plan on the on-site dump station. The lakeview sites are the ones to request. A general store, firewood, propane fills, and golf cart rentals cover the essentials. For after-hours check-in, go to the A-frame building, turn right of it, and call the resort for instructions. Pets are welcome. The lodging roster is the most varied in western Kentucky — treehouses alongside RV sites is not a common combination. A boat ramp, boat docks, an outdoor pool, a disc golf course, sport courts, basketball, volleyball, corn hole, a pavilion, and a playground fill the grounds, with boating, fishing, swimming, hiking, and biking on Lake Barkley. Eddyville sits in Lyon County on Lake Barkley, next to Land Between the Lakes. Rates for sites and every rental type are on the booking page. Lakeview sites and the treehouses book earliest.

29 RV Sites

Indian Point RV Park in Eddyville, Kentucky, offers 29 RV sites with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 40 feet.

Twenty-nine sites span back-in 30/50-amp water-and-electric only, full hookup pull-through, water-and-electric back-in 30-amp, and water-and-electric back-in 50-amp categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted, sized to 40 feet. Read the category carefully — only the pull-through tier carries sewer at the site, and the back-in categories are water and electric. Note the 40-foot cap before booking a larger rig. Cabins round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, propane fills and exchange, dump station, restrooms, boat storage, and a recreation center handle the practical side. A boat ramp and boat docks open the water for boating and fishing, with an outdoor pool, clubhouse, game room, sports courts, pavilion, playground, dog park, and a river on the property filling the rest.

Summer lake season drives the heaviest demand, with the spring and fall fishing runs strong. Reserve well ahead for warm-weather weekends.

Biking, picnicking, and swimming fill out the days, with a state park and wine tasting nearby.
