I give this location a 3 stars because there was not a lot of shade on my site. Also it’s right below the Dam and when we went it had rained a lot and I felt that I was going to get flooded there was also a very egg smell in the air coming from River. We moved to the state park this next day. It’s perfect location for fishing or launching your boat or kayak. No so great for camping experience. But the bathrooms were very nice and clean. Also the little table with a roof was nice to have specially for cooking. I’m sure it was for fish gutting. I love that is pet friendly.

Campground is well spaced out. Trees have not been trimmed in a long time. If you have, a tall camper the road in from the interstate and the campground have some low hanging limbs. Be careful and try to avoid. I got damage in the campground getting into site.

Nice well kept campground on Caney Fork River. Level sites and river access. Popular river for canoe and kayaking at base of Center Hill Lake Dam. Water levels vary with generator schedule and not a good place for swimming but excellent launch point for a river trip.

My son and I were suppose to stay 3 nights however after 1 night we left. The host was an older very rude man. He seemed as if it was his property instead of being a host. I’ve never experienced anyone more rude at a campsite as many places that I have stayed. I reported him the same night that I tried to cancel for a refund. I had to pay $20. To cancel and was treated so rudely that I could not wait until daybreak to get gone. Let’s just say Edgar Evian is so much more of a welcoming friendly campground. Very glad it wasn’t far down the road. I will never be back to this very small campground with a very rude host !!!
