Cedars of Lebanon State Park September 2017

I finally accumulated enough vacation time to take a week off.  Rick and I decided to stop near Nashville, TN for a couple of days to see family on our way to Fall Creek Falls State Park.  

When I made reservations 5 months ago, I first tried to get them for Seven Points COE campground near Nashville, but they would not let me reserve for a Saturday without reserving Friday, as well.  We didn't want to rush and try to get there Friday after work so I looked for another campground.  I found Cedars of Lebanon State Park.

We camped at site 43 in Campground 1.  All of the sites in Campground 1 are pull-throughs.  Some have 20/30 amp and some have 20/50 amp.  All sites have water.  

Most of the sites are very close together with little living area space.  

The sites along the outer edges have much more privacy with their living areas towards the woods.  Sites 1 & 2 in Campground 1 are occupied by camphosts.  The other outer sites are #3, 41, 42, 43, 44 and 45.  Our site (#43) had a large living area with plenty of area on both sides for our slideouts.  

There are two other campground areas in Cedars of Lebanon State Park.  Area 2 are back-in sites with 20/30 amp and water.  Most of these sites offer more privacy as they are further apart.  Area 3 has 20 amp service only with water and is suitable for some pop-ups or tent camping.  These sites are great with lots of room and privacy if you don't need 30 or 50 amp service.  

Each campground area has a bathhouse.  I used the one in our area and found it to be okay, not the cleanest but not the grossest either.  There is a laundry in Area 1 right behind the Camper Check-In.  None of the sites have sewer hookups and there is only 1 dump station for the entire campground which can make for a traffic jam at check-out time. 

This park has a lot to offer.  Lots of trails, disc golf, a seasonal swimming pool, seasonal horse stables, playground and lots of bike riding opportunities.  As this was just a stopping point on our way to another destination and to see family that lived in Nashville, we did not explore that much.  We would like to come back and spend more time here.

Since this campground is so close to Nashville, our over-the air antenna picked up lots of network TV stations.  My Sprint phone had good cell and data service.
