Beautiful campground, but it needs a little love. Sites have gorgeous views, but are not level.

Poole Knobs is a really nice campground, with some great water sites. Some of the water sites don’t have good boat parking due to large rocks in the lake, but you can usually make it work. The 12 noon check out time is disappointing. There are much larger campgrounds that are 2pm, but somehow the clean up crew has convinced someone that they need more time, but they don’t! Then spend about 2 minutes on each site, because there isn’t anything to clean! Most campers are good about cleaning up their own trash! The 2nd thing is- many of the sites are not level, and really difficult for the larger campers and RV’s. The state does not allocate enough money to get things done, and it usually takes years to complete a project! And finally, Poole Knobs closes for the year after Sept 30, which is ridiculous. Everyone knows that October is the best month of all for camping! It’s just wrong that families cannot camp there for Fall Break!

The location is great and keeps our whole group centralized. The staff is very nice and regular patrol of staff and local law enforcement make us feel pretty safe.

Even though we were totally disappointed with downtown Nashville we loved the park. On the down side we left 2 days early. At other gov parks they gave us a refund for the unused days
