We stopped in for a 2 night say on our way from Michigan to Gulf Shores, AL, so we could spend a day in Nashville. Very helpful staff. Showers and bathrooms were so clean. We would definitely stay here again.

Easy access, LOOK for the small campground sign after turning off main road, no biggie if you miss it like us - we went round the fuel station easily 41' 5th wheel +truck. Excellent service on reception, gave us clear map, marked our spot and walked (ran) us to it, helped parking even on a cold bleak day. It's spacious with graveled spots with campfire ring & picnic table. Ours was flat, I noticed some were not quite level but still good. Hardly hear freeway, but conveniently close. Play area, basketball area, horseshoes, BarBQ gazebo, fishing lake/pond and a music pavilion. Kid and dog friendly. We didn't use laundry, restrooms & showers or internet ($3 daily if you need it)
Paid $46.80 Inc senior discount. Propane available aswell.

This was a nice, quiet campground with very friendly management. It is very close to the freeway, yet surrounded by fields. Our site was a level pull through, and we had no problems coming in or out of the campground with a 25 foot class C towing a CRV. There are not a lot of trees, and the sites are relatively close together, but I would definitely stay here for a few days if we were doing touring in Nashville and Bowling Green.

The campground
Full hookups 30/50 amps
Propane on site
Check in 1pm
Checkout 11am
Quiet park
Dark
Close to highway (6 min)
Gravel and level for pull thru
Most of the sites are pretty level.
Far enough from highway to drown the sound
Lots of towns, amenities close by
Park wifi - (I think it’s $2.99) per day
No bugs to worry about getting into your RV
Wifi signal we had
Sprint 5 bars, no issues
At&T cellphone, no issues, full bars
Check in was a breeze, everything was in an envelope outside the office. You can call anytime and someone will answer. They work around the campsite instead of siting in the office.
Looking for just an overnight?
If you need a place to hang your hat and not have to unhook your tow this is the place to park. We are 45ft with toad and had ample room to just pull through. It is really nice to have some up front, easy excess spots to stay a night or two. These spots are really tight in terms of space between RV’s. So, not good for long term. Unless you like literally sitting and watching your neighbors have a barbecue. But super nice to have a pull thru for a night or two.
The other sites, just depends on where you are, are spacious, some over look the little pond, or the back grass. If you can snag an end site, especially if you have a side balcony, you will be living the royal life.
The campground is extremely clean, well maintained. The shower area is extremely clean Its been well scrubbed. There is a small store on site.
The mailroom is next to the laundry room a table and cabinet to hold packages, inside the club area before the shower rooms. You will not be notified your packages are there and there is no sorting either.
The shower rooms are Unisex. You have a door that locks, and a little area to change, hooks and a chair, within in your shower area
There is also a laundry room and they were kept up in good shape.
There is a a clean fenced in pool, and it was busy most of the time. There is a dog run, not sure where, I don’t have dogs. This campground caters to families and the two weeks we were here they had some special functions going on for the families in the pavilion. They really do cater to families.
This campground is about
25 minutes from bowling Green
50 minutes to Nashville
Jim and Tanya are friendly, accommodating and were extremely helpful with all of my 50 million questions and super helpful with my missing packages. They helped me get a package to my next campground -which was super awesome of them!
Don’t pass this campground by, definitely worth checking out for a safe place to rest overnight or staying awhile to explore.
Leave your campsite cleaner than you found it
Pick up after your pet
Pick up your cigarette butts
Don’t throw your trash in the fire pit ring
Turn your outdoor RV lights off at night and experience the stars (your neighbors will thank you)
Peace!
Coming into the campground
From Hwy 65, head west, (same if you are coming west on Scottsville Rd (100), pass the light, there will be two Pilot Gas Stations.
The one on the South Side (your left side) will have a sign for a SUBWAY restaurant. If you look up you will also see a white sign with purple (lavender, lilac) sign that says RV PARK ENTRANCE (see pic).
Turn left into the Pilot entrance and then veer immediately to the right, towards the SPEEDCO TRUCK AND LUBE shop— THEN TURN LEFT…it is a little road just before entering the SPEEDCO parking lot.
Your GPS should guide you in. Some GPS systems will call it KOA Lane - ours didn’t call it anything.
Look down, there is another little sign - and I mean a little, small yellow sign with blue lettering that says
BLUEGRASS MUSIC RV PARK 0.2 miles. (believe me, you will miss it).
If you have done it right, SPEEDCO is on the RIGHT of you, and PILOT is on the Left of You.
If you are coming East on Scottsville Rd (100) Turn right into RED ROOF IN and then an IMMEDIATE LEFT (watch the pothole) into SPEEDCO.
Then look RIGHT at the end of Speedco just before you go into the PILOT parking lot you will see a little road and a sign at knee level; Turn right down that small road. If you have done it right, SPEEDCO is on the RIGHT of you, and PILOT is on the Left of You.
Have fun, it’s a great quiet campground.

We stay here on the way North/South. We do not find the highway & truckstop noise to be objectionable. There is more workmen related traffic within the park about 0600 hrs. The park is well maintained and staff friendly but the best way to get them is via telephone (they have always answered). I am in a longer term site this time and it is tight with more problematic exit turns for out 52' length with dolly. The voltage seems stable and registers 127VAC inside the RV and is reasonable stable day/night. Water is good as are the sewer connection and laid out well. We will return as the price is right with discounts.

Level, gravel pull-thru sites. Full hookup with 50 amp. Clean and well organized. Sites are close together separated by very narrow band of grass. Picnic table and fire ring.
Staff was friendly and helpful.
Easy in and out.
Just off the interstate so a convenient stop for the night.

I wouldn't want to stay for an extended amount of time because the sites were a bit cramped, but this place was fine for a couple nights. We checked in and made it to our nice long Pull-Thru Site easily (we have a 38ft motorhome + toad). Everything worked well. We unhooked the second night to go see a band in Nashville, which was only 45 minutes away. Good stuff. :D
The entrance to the place is a little confusing. Check it out on Google maps satellite before you go. It's plenty easy enough to do in any size rig, but it is weird and confusing, so take it slow.
Our price was with Passport America.

There is a pavilion where they have bluegrass on the weekends.The entrance is not obvious: From I-65 exit 6, go west on Scottsville Rd, turn left into the Pilot Travel Center, then take the road to the right of the truck scale. I used the campground as a base for visiting Nashville and the South Union Shaker Village.
