Coming into the campground is a bit trickyThe campgroundFull hookups 30/50 ampsPropane on site Check in 1pmCheckout 11amQuiet parkDark Close to highway (6 min)Gravel and level for pull thruMost of the sites are pretty level. Far enough from highway to drown the soundLots of towns, amenities close byPark wifi - (I think it’s $2.99) per day No bugs to worry about getting into your RVWifi signal we had Sprint 5 bars, no issuesAt&T cellphone, no issues, full barsCheck 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 itPick up after your petPick up your cigarette buttsDon’t throw your trash in the fire pit ringTurn 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.

  • Good experience same as last fall

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.

Once we were in the campground we didn’t even know Pilot was over there. This is a very well managed campground, friendly, neat and pretty, pool, small lake with fountain. The sites are narrow, but there is a strip of well mowed grass and a picnic table. We gave site quality four stars because it is pretty narrow.The best part is the ease of getting in and out - just pull in, park, pull out. No sharp turns to navigate, perfectly level, good hookups. We will come back.

  • Good overnight stop while traveling.

    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.

  • Easy Pull-Thru, Good 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.
