What Guests Are Saying
Poole Knobs is a beautiful and clean campground with friendly hosts and great lake views, making it a favorite for many campers. While some sites are uneven and require leveling, the peaceful atmosphere and proximity to Nashville add to its appeal. The campground offers a variety of amenities, though improvements to bathhouse access and site leveling are suggested by some visitors.

We’ve camped at Poole Knobs for years. Finally got site #32. It has a paved pad, and really hard to get on the weekends. Love the shade and paved areas, but when it rains, the water runs down onto the site, bringing mud all over the pad. So if you are using a rug or have things sitting on the pad, it will all be covered in mud! Other than that issue, it’s a great water site!

This is our fourth year to come with a group to Poole knobs for a long weekend. The campground is always neat and well kept. The hosts are always very kind. There is a Walmart close by to pick up any supplies. You may have forgotten. Plenty of parks and restaurants within a 20 minute drive.

Very nice campsites, kind of hard to get to the bath house from some of the loops. The bath houses were well maintained and clean. The overall experience was great.
