Available Nov 13–15 · 2 nights2 sites open for every nightA forested campground near fishing, and hiking. RV fit varies by site.
Recreation at Harpeth River Bridge and the broader Cheatham Lake area is oriented toward boating, canoeing and fishing, with the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency managing nearby wildlife management areas and Metro Nashville-Davidson County operating riverfront park facilities. The temperate local climate extends the season for water-based activities, and the campground's new ramp makes getting boats on the river straightforward; the surrounding Cheatham Lock and Dam area also supports hiking, wildlife viewing, picnicking, auto touring and other water-sport opportunities at nearby Doziers Dock and Pardue Recreation Area.















Length limits vary by campsite.

Months with fewer than 30 reservations of that kind are left blank. Sites where nearly every booking was made the day of arrival (pay on arrival) are left out. Closed seasons, windows not yet released for booking, and currently unavailable nights are separate from this history.
Based on Recreation.gov reservations, FY2015–2025 (7,767 reservations in the years scored). Counts reservations made, not nights actually camped: cancellations aren't in the data, and nights a site was closed count as not booked. FY2020–21 (COVID) are left out of the scores.
