The only thing that would make my stay perfect would be sewer hookup

This campground was very calm and peaceful. The water wraps around the entire campground making each site accessible to fishing or just enjoying the water. The most amazing thing happened, we witnessed a paddlefish jumping out of the water. The sites are large. They are not crammed up to each other, plenty of space between sites. The campground is clean. There is a very nice diner and an ice machine right across the highway. 30 minutes from Nashville.

A well maintained, clean, and attractive park. Big rig friendly on a few sites (meaning maneuverable and room for long rigs; 76 ft.). Friendly Rangers and Hosts who maintained a periodic drive by presence. Sites had good space between. Sites were paved, had water, 20, 30, and 50 A service. There was good drainage and was near level. The bathhouse was an easy walk being on the campground (CG) loop. Used it daily, and it was cleaned daily as well as site garbage pickup. The showers had benches and hooks. Level, paved CG road good for children’s bicycling. Harpeth River is on edge of CG, with two boat ramps and close by trailer parking. Small children’s playground with swings and medium sized grassy field for kites, playing catch, etc.. Would visit again. Stayed in 44 ft. fifth wheel. Please add sewer hookup.

Campground was ok, but my reserved spot was occupied, and . Bathroom was fine, no showers, has a playground, and respectful neighbors. The spots are right on the water. Minimal shade, picnic table, but not having our assigned spot available was a bummer -- and no one on site to help at the time.

Second time at COE. Nice. Camp ground host eager to assist me in backing up. Bathhouse structure seems to be a good shelter for severe weather, also clean. Drained rain well, keeping camper easily accessable

Great people to deal with. The only issue was the grass was a little too high and the weeds along the bank made it hard to fish from our site.
