RV travel guide
Davidson County
County seat Nashville, 502 sq mi across Tennessee. Everything an RV traveler should read before rolling in — where you can boondock, the roads worth the detour, and the local rule that actually matters.
The county in brief
A traveler's read on Davidson County
Nashville is the only US state capital with a UNESCO Creative City of Music designation — the country-music industry concentration around Music Row, the Country Music Hall of Fame, and the Grand Ole Opry routes more recording-studio output per capita than any other US city. Davidson County is consolidated city-county government (since 1963) and wraps the entire Nashville metro inside a single jurisdictional unit.
The Natchez Trace Parkway's northern terminus is at the county's southwest edge. Long Hunter State Park on J. Percy Priest Reservoir accepts rigs up to 40 ft with no hookups; the nearest full-hookup RV-friendly base routes to private campgrounds at Nashville Music City RV Park.
