Had a great stay here! However I should note the ground was too rocky to get my tent stakes all the way into the ground, but I managed to get them in just enough to get the tent to stay up for the night lol. Also fair warning, this site is on a quite a steep slope. Other than that, beautiful campground and definitely coming back!

Place is beautiful and super close to Nashville. Great kayaking and swimming experience. Bear island is great private place and super peaceful. This place has gate and wonderful staff. Showers and washer machine. If you’re visiting Nashville it’s only 40 minutes away.
