As part of our Mammoth Cave / Dollywood / Great Smokey Mountains National Forest RV vacation, we…read morestayed at The Cove RV Campground on day (night) number 1. Some may ask why we stayed in Gadsden, AL, which is more or less midway between Birmingham, AL and Chattanooga, TN. Well, I had to work the day we left so we got a late start, but I digress. The Cove is "somewhat" conveniently located off I-59 near its intersection with I-759. We knew we would be arriving well after closing time, but the on-site manager (whose name I cannot recall) assured us that this would not be an issue and all we had to do was call him when we were 30 minutes out, as the entrance gate would be locked. At 8:30 PM we gave him a call and true to his word, he was waiting for us when we arrived shortly after 9 PM. Kudos for the excellent customer service and easy check-in procedure. This park features lakefront and pull-through sites. There are 30/50 amp hookups and sites available for tents. The gravel roads were all recently graded, as were the gravel pads. However, I prefer concrete pads for the RV. There is a small private spring-fed lake bordering the park that's available for use. The facilities were all very clean and very nice. There was a very nice in-ground pool and separate toddler pool for the little ones. The pools were secured with a chain link fence to prevent wayward little ones from wandering in. One of the biggest surprises was how impeccably clean the shower house was. The floors were mopped daily and the showers were spotless. The laundry room was also new and very clean too. This park is a solid choice. I think an investment in some landscaping and possibly some concrete pads would transform this 4-star park into a 5 star park. I've only stayed in a handful of RV parks over the past few years, but this place is a solid choice and I am definitely a fan.

This was our first time staying there and it wasn't exactly clear how or where to check-in. Need a bit better sign for the way into the campground.

We did enjoy tubing, but we bought our own from Walmart for much cheaper and since we were staying here, it was free and we just signed a waver. Beware of snakes though, there's a lot of them! We got floats with netted bottoms to keep them from trying to take a ride with us. Fishing was far more enjoyable. We caught catfish, alligator gar, sheepshead, little bass, and more. Use small tackle and don't expect a fish fry!

The building near the playground is going to fall any day. There's no maintenance kept up on anything. The slide literally fell, the picnic tables was almost down the hill. The grass is grown up in areas around the playground and everywhere else. This place has potential but there's not love here unfortunately. I hope they take reviews seriously but considering looking at the other reviews it's the same as it always has been and they changed nothing sadly.

We had a really good experience renting a Lowe SS 210 pontoon boat here until it came time to…read morereturn it and deal with the gas. When we pulled up at the dock at our scheduled return time, a young worker was already filling boats with gas cans (not a pump). He started filling ours, but ran out of gas midway. That immediately raised concerns, since there's no way to know how much was in the can before he started. My husband went into the store and was told the worker would have to go buy more gas, and it would be 30+ minutes before he came back. This was frustrating because they knew our boat was due back at 6 PM, yet chose to use up gas on other boats first instead of being prepared for us. We were told we'd be sent a receipt for the fuel, but we never got one--just a $100 charge. At $5 a gallon and a 24-gallon tank, the numbers don't add up, especially since the gauge showed between half and a quarter tank left when we returned it. Based on the math, I don't believe we actually used the amount of gas they charged us for, likely an extra $20-$30. The day on the water itself was great, but the lack of transparency with the gas, no receipt, and questionable accuracy in what we were charged left a sour note at the end. It's never a good feeling to feel like you have been ripped off. If you rent here, just be aware of how they handle fueling and charges.
