Old Hickory Lake is a popular recreation destination and ranks third in Corps-wide visitation. Lakefront property is in great demand. Situated only 15 miles from Nashville, (the Home of Country Music), many country music stars have made Old Hickory Lake their backyard. Visitors come to have fun and we deliver great camping and the opportunity for boating, fishing, swimming, hiking, cycling and more. The fishing at Old Hickory Lake is world class. The 25 pound world record walleye was caught here in 1960. Largemouth bass are the premier game fish on Old Hickory.

We were there for only one night this time. We were in site 4, which is level back in site. We arrived well after dark and had problems seeing the site numbers in the dark. It would help if numbers were reflective to better show up at night.

Love Cages Bend small campground right on the lake. Best sites in my opinion are 3 and 4,they are the most spacious. Not directly on the water but still have fantastic view. This campground is really close to all shopping.
