Great place to camp as home base to visit Nashville. Fisherman’s/boater’s paradise. Possibly the most private campsites I have ever experienced. Shower facilities and laundry could be updated and expanded.

We were the first campers on opening day. Really enjoyed our lake site and caught many fish the first week. Just relaxed around the campsite the second week.
One problem that was very unsightly is the way the COE used bush hog machine to trim large tree limbs by turning it sideways cutting the limbs. Left many beautiful trees with unsightly long jagged limbs. The COE also poured a raised concrete pad at the dumping station which was previously even with the disposal hole. The 3-4 inch raised concrete pad caused problems for people emptying their black tank causing raw sewage spillage one day which meant a stinky mess to be cleaned up and the station unusable for a few days.
I recommend the COE return and make the concrete pad slant to meet the ground and make the concrete pad the width of a standard black tank. It would be much more efficient and easier to access.

I absolutely loved the campground. The restroom facilities were clean and conveniently located. The only thing keeping me from a 5 rating was the noise level, which was off the charts the second night. Other than the noise level, it is a fantastic camp site and I will definitely be back.
