Stayed in Site 3 and loved it. It was quite private and totally quiet except a few planes overhead.

The campsite was large and on the lake with lake access. Worst problem is the bathhouse near the campsites was damaged by a storm. You had to drive to the other bathhouse. Otherwise it is nice, little noise from airplanes.

Had site 46 and it’s on the water which is nice. The site is definitely not level and in all the years we’ve camped this has been the worst one. Liked the campground overall and would go back but pick a different site. The camp hosts couldn’t have been nicer people!

Very Quiet campground. Our site by the water was well shaded with the trees.

Not a very good overnight spot. better long-term week. Everything shows its age and lack of maintenance. This park ,60 years old. Stuff wears out. The trees are beautiful. I did see a lightning bug I'm 75 years old LBN I did not use the shower. campsite was level mostly

Of course the sites on the water looked fantastic, but we booked late and took what we could which was site #6. It was still very nice and very woodsy. We have T-Mobile Home Internet and right on the water the 5g signal was strong. But even back in the park, we had decent speeds. It’s very hilly and most of the siges are not flat, so prepare for that. Water and power were great ax were the staff. We didn’t encounter bugs, gnats, or mosquitoes… only fireflies! Walmart is close by with the cheapest gas. We enjoyed our stay.

You are close to Nashville and Smyrna. If you want lake access get site on lake. Inside sites have to go thru those sites. Bathroom is on top of hill. Only two ways up for outer sites. Both Dirt and steep.
