Small park but the sites are really spread out. There is a major road by the campground (elevated highway for the bridge) but it's not very noisy. Sites are very level. AT&T and T-Mobile had excellent reception, and even with the numerous older trees, we were able to find a good location for Starlink.
There is a sign by the boat ramp warning about eating catfish from the river.
Didn't check out the bath facilities as we were there only one night. We'd go back, though. We had water and power at our site, picnic table and fire ring. There's also a dump on site.

This is a very nice small campground, everything is kept in great shape. The restrooms are very clean. We had a nice riverfront spot that was spacious and clean every spot got their own garbage can.

Wow! I expected this spot on the Harpeth River to be beautiful, but this campground far surpassed even my most ambitious expectations.
Easy, seamless check-in; very well-maintained grounds and sites; very cool horseshoe pit; excellent cell coverage, but the real kicker - the riverfront pads!
Literally, right on the water-all of them! The concrete pads are concrete, level, and extra wide to allow maximum space on the riverfront. At each pad, there is a picnic table, a BBQ grill, a fire pit, a trash can, and a lantern post.
Not all the pads are shady, but our site (#8) was fully covered by a canopy of Sycamore and Oak trees. It was cool in the morning and evening, and in the afternoon there was always a lovely breeze off the river.
Everyone we met was nice, and the park is a laid-back and quiet gem tucked away from the main road
I would not only stay here again the next time I am passing through Cheatham County, I will absolutely book site #8 in this awesome park!

We always enjoy our time at Harpeth River Bridge Campground. Nice and quiet, the people are friendly, and the host is very nice. Unfortunately, due to unforseen events, we had to end our trip early. We definitely look forward to next years camping season.

Sites are awesome! Camp Host was great!

Trees branches and bushes need to be trimmed. They are not tall enough for motorhomes or 5th wheels.
