Unhitched Nashville North

73 RV Sites

Unhitched Nashville North in Goodlettsville, Tennessee, offers 73 full-hookup RV sites with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 45 feet, in the northern Nashville metro corridor. Buddy sites at both 30 and 50-amp join back-in, pull-in, and water-and-electric pull-through categories, with an outdoor pool, playground, and dog park. Seventy-three sites span back-in 30-amp, back-in 50-amp, pull-in 50-amp, pull-thru 30-amp buddy, pull-thru 30-amp water-and-electric, and pull-thru 50-amp buddy categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted with site WiFi, sized to 45 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. The buddy sites are built for two rigs traveling together, which is unusual to find at both amperages. Confirm your tier, as the water-and-electric category does not carry sewer at the site. A general store, laundry, propane fills, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side. An outdoor pool anchors the warm months, with shuffleboard, a playground, pavilion, and dog park filling the grounds. The amenity set is practical rather than resort-scale, which keeps rates reasonable for guests whose real agenda is Nashville. Pets are welcome. Directions to 1200 Louisville Highway: take I-65 north out of Nashville, exit 98 onto Highway 31 toward Millersville, then two miles with the park on the left. Music City's honky-tonks, the Grand Ole Opry, and the Country Music Hall of Fame are all a short drive south. Demand tracks the Nashville event calendar year-round. Reserve ahead for CMA Fest and major concert weekends.

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.

Rural Hill Farm

17 RV Sites, 3 Cabins, 1 House

Rural Hill Farm in Mt. Juliet, Tennessee, spreads across 180 acres of rolling Wilson County farmland east of Nashville, offering a genuine farm camping experience that combines full hookup RV sites, cabin rentals, and tent camping with the working agricultural character of a Middle Tennessee property where guests can fish a stocked pond, hike property trails, and experience the pastoral calm of a working farm just 25 minutes from one of America's most vibrant music cities. The farm's scale and rural character create an authentic contrast to the urban energy of Nashville's entertainment corridor, serving guests who want both proximity to the city and meaningful retreat from it. The 180-acre property provides room for well-spaced camping sites that avoid the crowded feel common at urban-fringe campgrounds competing for limited acreage, and the stocked pond delivers fishing access—bass, catfish, and bluegill—without requiring guests to drive to public water. Hiking trails through the farm's mixed woodland and pasture provide daily walking and exploration within the property boundary, and the swimming hole gives families a natural aquatic option during Middle Tennessee's warm summer months. Cabin rentals serve guests who prefer enclosed accommodations, and the full hookup RV sites handle the full range of self-contained rigs with water, electric, and sewer service. Wilson County's landscape is the heart of Middle Tennessee's bluegrass and cedar glade country, where the Central Basin's limestone bedrock breaks through thin soils in the cedar glade natural community—one of Tennessee's rarest ecosystems—and the surrounding rolling farmland of oak-hickory forest and pasture creates a green, fertile landscape that has supported agricultural communities since the earliest Euro-American settlement of the Nashville Basin in the late eighteenth century. Mt. Juliet's rapid suburban growth in recent decades has brought commercial development to the Wilson County corridor, but Rural Hill Farm's acreage provides a meaningful agricultural buffer against the suburban encroachment surrounding it. Percy Priest Lake, formed by J. Percy Priest Dam on the Stones River approximately 10 miles west of the farm, provides boating, swimming, and fishing on 14,200 acres of Corps of Engineers-managed reservoir with multiple public access ramps and day-use areas along its wooded shoreline. Long Hunter State Park on Percy Priest Lake's eastern shore protects 2,600 acres of cedar glades, hardwood forest, and lake shoreline with hiking trails that showcase the region's distinctive geological flora, including the rare Tennessee coneflower found in cedar glade habitat. Nashville, approximately 25 minutes west via I-40, provides the full range of attractions concentrated in one of the country's fastest-growing cultural and entertainment destinations—from the Grand Ole Opry and Country Music Hall of Fame to acclaimed restaurants and the honky-tonk corridor of Lower Broadway. Rural Hill Farm operates year-round in Middle Tennessee's four-season climate, with spring and fall representing the most comfortable outdoor seasons and summer drawing families attracted by the pond fishing, swimming hole, and the farm's ability to provide children with a genuine agricultural experience uncommon in the suburban Nashville landscape. The farm's 25-minute proximity to Nashville makes it viable for guests attending concerts, sporting events, or exploring the city during the day while returning to a rural, quiet camping environment in the evenings—a combination that differentiates it meaningfully from campgrounds located within the urban core.

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.

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.

Spacious Skies Belle Ridge

49 RV Sites, 12 Cabins, 6 Tent Sites

Spacious Skies Belle Ridge spreads across 500-plus acres of the Cumberland Plateau near Monterey, Tennessee, delivering an outdoor experience rooted in the landscape itself—waterfalls, caves, spring-fed swimming holes, and miles of hiking and UTV trails built into the plateau's forested terrain rather than layered on top of it. The spacious skies belle ridge campground sits off I-40 at an elevation that keeps summer temperatures noticeably cooler than the Tennessee valleys below, making it a natural refuge for hot-weather camping. The campground offers 68 sites including full hookup RV sites for any rig size, monthly and seasonal options for extended stays, glamping accommodations, and tent sites for traditional campers. The amenity infrastructure includes a general store, laundry facilities, community fire pit, pavilion, dog park, and playground. WiFi is available at campsites throughout the property. The natural amenities, however, are what set Belle Ridge apart: miles of trails through plateau forest lead to waterfalls and hidden caves accessible from within the campground, a natural spring-fed swimming hole with a sandy beach provides the summer's primary gathering point, a secluded hike-in fishing hole gives anglers a backcountry feel without a long approach, and gold panning rounds out the discovery-based activities. Planned activities supplement the natural programming through the season. The Cumberland Plateau is one of the most biologically diverse regions in the eastern United States—a sandstone table elevated above the surrounding valleys, crossed by rivers that have carved dramatic gorges and waterfall corridors through millions of years of drainage. Monterey sits near the eastern edge of the plateau where the terrain drops sharply into the Crab Orchard Mountains, giving Belle Ridge access to the geological complexity that makes this part of Tennessee consistently reward slow exploration. The plateau's cave systems, created by water dissolving limestone beneath the sandstone cap, add an underground dimension to the landscape that is rare among eastern campgrounds of this scale. Fall Creek Falls State Park, about an hour southwest, is home to Fall Creek Falls—at 256 feet, among the highest free-falling waterfalls in eastern North America—and the surrounding state park encompasses additional cascades, gorges, and swimming areas in one of Tennessee's most spectacular natural settings. Burgess Falls State Natural Area, closer to the campground, protects a series of four cascading falls on the Falling Water River in terrain that provides some of the most rewarding short hikes in Middle Tennessee. Rock Island State Park nearby preserves the Great Falls of the Caney Fork River alongside swimming, camping, and geological formations that reflect the plateau's complex hydrology. Nashville is roughly 90 minutes west via I-40, providing a full urban day trip option. Spacious Skies Belle Ridge operates through the Tennessee camping season with spring and fall delivering the most comfortable plateau weather for trail exploration and cave visits. Summer's spring-fed swimming hole becomes the property's social center during hot weather, and the elevated plateau setting shaves several degrees off the temperatures visitors experience in Nashville or Knoxville at the same time. The combination of natural discovery activities—caves, waterfalls, gold panning, spring swimming—with a full-service campground infrastructure makes Belle Ridge one of the more distinctive camping destinations on the Cumberland Plateau.

Made in the Shade RV Park - Only

34 RV Sites, 10 Cabins

In Only, Tennessee—a quiet community in Hickman County in the rolling hills of Middle Tennessee just off Interstate 40 at Exit 152, where the Tennessee countryside between Nashville and Memphis offers the wooded, unhurried character that the I-40 corridor's pace obscures—Made in the Shade RV Park delivers exactly what its name promises: 38 full hookup RV sites under the cooling canopy of mature shade trees, with a swimming pool, cabins, clubhouse, dog park, laundry, walking trails, pond, and stream access in a property that sits within easy reach of Loretta Lynn's Ranch in Hurricane Mills, Natchez Trace State Park, and the Tennessee music and cultural heritage of the Western Middle Tennessee landscape. For travelers who want a genuine Tennessee country stop that extends beyond the highway rest area experience, Made in the Shade provides the shade, the pool, and the community. Full hookup sites with 30 and 50-amp electric, water, and sewer accommodate rigs of all sizes in the tree-shaded property alongside cabin accommodations for guests who prefer enclosed lodging, with WiFi, playground, laundry, and clean bathrooms and showers completing the essential amenity infrastructure. The swimming pool provides relief from the Tennessee summer heat that any traveler on the mid-state I-40 corridor will recognize as the primary mid-day challenge from June through September, and the walking trails connect to the pond and creek access that make the natural surroundings more than decorative. The dog park gives pets their exercise space in a town where the surrounding countryside provides the quiet country atmosphere that dogs—like their owners—find restorative after highway travel. Wine and beer tasting at nearby regional producers adds an adult entertainment option for evenings between the pool and the campfire. Only sits in Hickman County in the Western Highland Rim, in the gentle, forested hill country that characterizes Middle Tennessee west of the Nashville basin—a landscape of mixed hardwood forest, small farms, and the tributary creeks of the Duck River and Buffalo River that drain this part of the Cumberland Plateau's western slope. The Duck River, one of the most biologically diverse rivers in North America and home to more species of freshwater mussels than any river system in the country, flows through nearby Hickman and Perry Counties in the region's most significant natural corridor. Loretta Lynn's Ranch in Hurricane Mills, approximately 20 miles west on US Highway 70, preserves the home, grist mill, plantation home, and the personal museum of one of country music's most beloved and most decorated artists—a property that combines living history, country music heritage, and the genuine Tennessee countryside character that defines Loretta Lynn's origin story. Natchez Trace State Park, nearby to the south, protects the hill country landscape of the Natchez Trace corridor with hiking trails, fishing, and camping in the natural forest environment that the Trace has preserved since the days of the keelboat men and the Chickasaw Nation. Made in the Shade operates year-round in Hickman County's Tennessee climate, with the pool season from late May through Labor Day at the heart of the summer travel calendar and the fall foliage on the surrounding hardwood ridges providing the October color that makes Middle Tennessee's hill country genuinely beautiful. The I-40 corridor's accessibility means the park serves both dedicated Tennessee destination travelers and the through-travelers making the Nashville-to-Memphis run who want more than a truck stop overnight. Reserve your shaded site or cabin at Made in the Shade and let Hickman County's genuine Tennessee country character and the easy access to Loretta Lynn's heritage prove that the best I-40 stops aren't always the ones with the billboards.
