We had an amazing time. The park is great, wish there was sewer hookups at each site.

Too many trees over the camp site. Also wish they would add sewer to the sites. No swimming beach.

Great location, no issues with the site. My biggest suggestion is having a restroom on the outer loop.

Good facilities and not far from other activities in and around Nashville. Great place for boating and fishing.

I love Poole Knobs. The sites are nice and wooded. The bath houses are always nice and clean. The water sites are the best but we were not on the water site. The non water sites are a little cheaper so if you have a friend with a water site its nice to book a cheaper site and use their access to the water.

This is probably the worst corps of engineers campground in middle TN. They have not made any improvements since it was built. There is no courtesy dock, the boat ramp area is full of gravel and lumber. The planters are so rotten they are about to spill out at any moment. The sites are mostly buddy sites and totally un level. The bathrooms are terrible. The road coming into and inside the park has seen better days many years ago. I feel like they keep it open to make some money, but they certainly are not putting any effort into this campground. I’ll drive and hour and a half out of my way to stay at defeated creek or salt lick from now on. I even canceled the other two reservations I have at this park this year.
