Anderson Road Campground

Better than typical COE park, most sites are paved but others packed gravel that were relatively flat. Our first time here, we stopped in for a long weekend and stayed on three separate sites, All were easy enough to get into and level without any blocking. Walking around, there were a few that would have proved challenging. So be careful if you have a long rig. The lake is beautiful and the water very clear; surprisingly few bugs, even on the lakeside sites. Our only drawback was the Nashville traffic, even so we will plan a week back here next year -- they close for the winter September 30.

Beautiful campground with very spacious sites. We stayed in site #2 with lake access. There are quite a few sites with lake access so look at the campground map. I know that sites 1-7 have what looks like the best lake access. Nice and quiet within the campground. We have a starlink and site #2 gave us good service. We hung our hammocks on the trees and spent most of the day floating on the water and afternoons swinging in the hammocks! Then dinner and back on the floats until sunset. A beautiful place to relax 🥰

We enjoy going to this campsite because we can have our own lakeside however it is not well maintained. today for example there is nobody at the booth so anybody could come in and go and the location is not exactly safe and have requested the gate be put down after 7pm with a code so campers could access their space .. The gravel has been abused over the years and is difficult to get campers to back in properly. The bathrooms are old and need to be updated. There is only 11 spaces with electrical so the rest which is about 20 or 30 are normally vacant because these days everybody has electric and water in their units so it's not comfortable to know at night not many people are there. This campsite has so much potential and it'saddens me to see it just get so downtrodden. There is also an excellent Chinese restaurant just up the street but the Mexican restaurant is pretty poor quality. If you're ever on Smith springs road after 7:00 p.m. be sure to lock your doors and be aware of your surroundings.

This is Corps of Engineers campground. Bathrooms are old, from the Cold War era and require a hike or a drive. Most of the tent sites have no electric and no water. Views from the beach are beautiful though. Sites are well maintained.

My family fell in love with this camp. It is beautiful, lake is amazing, well organized, clean bathrooms and planty of space. Saturday night around 11 PM all he'll broke loose. Someone started blasting Hispanic techno, then rock, then folk. Music was coming from across the lake. It was so loud our tent was vibrating. We could not stand it. People started coming out trying to figure out what is going on. The music would get quite then again it would blast. It was going on until 7 am. It was literal nightmare. We wanted to pack up 3 am but because there is no light we were not able to. Noone in the camp was able to sleep. I imagine this is how POWs are treted. I cannot believe this I S Ok or normal. This was it. Our favorite spot. The spot where would come all the time for years to come. After this nightmare, never ever again. This had to be stopped.
