Beautiful place! Only issue we had was the bathrooms arent clean. The showers need scrubbed!
@JerryC3010960 · Camped on Jul 10, 2025 at Campsite #10
We love the smaller campground feel of Cages Bend; however, the bath house sure could use a makeover. This campground is almost always full to capacity and could sure use this update.

Our favorite campground.

Relatively small campground that offers a great view of the lake and access for swimming, paddling, or small craft launch.

Great time great location

We were on site 5, this is a very short site camper be aware not a lot of room. Very nice campground could use some updates to the bathrooms though. The exhaust system could work better to draw the moisture and humidity out of the bathrooms. The ada/family bathroom has no fan. Nice quiet campground with beautiful views of the lake. Lots of deer too

Had a great time, until the power went out about 9:30 on Saturday night, thankfully it only lasted 3 hrs.
@LawrenceG1FF7A · Camped on Jun 20, 2025 at Campsite #28
Six day stay POWER was out two days for three and five hours with no communication from Park management host Rangers also several dead tree limbs in the trees above campers. The Cumberland River is not very clean and the riverbank near campsite was extremely littered with logs and trash, dead fish, plastic bottles, plastic pipes, and other debris bath houses were OK but needed an upgrade Lots of traffic on boat ramp right next to the camp sites that was sketchy and skeptical at the least one evening there was four police cars with lights on for an hour and a half, very unsettling when you have small children around.

Unfortunately, we were unable to go- but the attendant, Holly, was kind enough to call and check on us when we did not arrive. A nice touch!
@GrahamM42E0520 · Camped on Jun 16, 2025 at Campsite #6
This is an awesome small campground on Old Hickory Lake. The views are stunning and the campsites dispersed enough to enjoy the area. We cannot say enough about the camp hosts. Without going into extensive detail, we can only say that they and the responsible ranger went above and beyond to help us. This location was always on our list of great places to stay. Our recent experience only reinforces this opinion.
@JenniferS83796 · Camped on Jun 15, 2025 at Campsite #15
Always enjoy our camping experience here. Bathrooms could use some updating

Beautiful setting. Clean and well kept. Bathroom/showers due for an update but OK. Overall, very good park with nice amount of space between sites.
@FranklinADB4A5 · Camped on Jun 6, 2025 at Campsite #30
Very nice campsite, clean and quite
@JasonG2268691 · Camped on Jun 1, 2025 at Campsite #34
Very nice place to camp. Nice scenic views. Can be a little noisy when staying next to the boat ramps, but overall a nice place to get away. Will stay again.
@markk7381774 · Camped on Jun 1, 2025 at Campsite #31
An excellent experience with the entrance personnel. Clean Bathroom, and park is well clean and grass mowed. Great place to camp.

Campground was clean and enjoyed our stay.

Great location for a lovely campground. Really nice layout with spacious sites for our RV. The free firewood was a nice perk!
@JerryC3010960 · Camped on May 23, 2025 at Campsite #32
We always love Cages Bend. A small friendly campground where there is always someone we know.
@TroyC9461459 · Camped on May 8, 2025 at Campsite #40
The campground was nice. It was well taken care of however, I had two consecutive stays booked three nights in one spot two nights in another. when I arrived, They told me that I would have to wait three hours from the time that I checked out of my spot until I could check into the next one at 3pm no exceptions, because a cleaning crew needed to clean the site before I could take it. I told them that I didnt need it cleaned. They told me I still would have to pack all my stuff up and wait three hours from 12pm - 3pm on the boat ramp with my RV to check into the other spot. So I canceled the last two nights and went to another park because if I was going to wait three hours, I may as well drive three hours to another park. Other than that, it was a nice park.
@BarryW8268737 · Camped on May 6, 2025 at Campsite #1
Great stay at Cages Bend. Park host and park rangers do an amazing job. Sites are in most part very clean and of good size. Easy access to the lake and centrally located to area things to do.
@WandaM1825550 · Camped on Apr 30, 2025 at Campsite #10
I have been camping at this campground since I was a little girl. I have always loved this campground. Over the years I have stayed on almost every site and there really isn't a bad spot in the park. The bathrooms are always clean, however they are very outdated and it would be nice to have bathrooms like at Cedar Creek that are all separate so the doors can be locked while you shower especially since anyone can access these restrooms from outside the campground. I have never felt unsafe but with times changing it would be nice to have added protection. There has always been friendly hosts and grounds keepers. My family and I plan to continue camping here for years to come. We have 4 more trips planned this year here at Cages Bend.

I just used PerfectCamp.com to book six consecutive August nights at the most popular campsite in one of the most popular campgrounds in Humboldt Redwoods State Park in California. That is not anything I could have accomplished anywhere else with the ease I did here! Thank you, PerfectCamp! I LOVE this site! You will find me on several other camping sites but the design, format, functionality, and personality of this the best. It’s fresh and clean.

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.
