Meet Your Hosts

Open All Year

Settle in at a shady pull thru or an air-conditioned Kamping Kabin.

Just off the interstate, this nicely landscaped spot is a relaxing and convenient stopover-or a great base camp for exploring local attractions and taking day trips to see the many sights of Nashville. Settle in at a shady pull thru or an air-conditioned Kamping Kabin. Order a hot pizza, and your hosts will deliver it right to your site. Stock up on RV supplies and homemade crafts at the campground store. Area attractions include Loretta Lynn's Ranch and Coal Miner's Daughter Museum, local Mennonite communities and canoe rentals that allow you to experience the mellow woods and wildlife along the Buffalo River.

Close

A love of the outdoors and the decision to make career changes brought Tom and Pat Gardell, owners of the Buffalo KOA, to Tennessee.

Tom, who had spent approximately 25 years in the corporate world of Human Resources/Labor Relations, decided he was tired of sitting behind a desk. Pat, who had owned and operated a beauty salon, shared her husband's love of the outdoors and camping, so they decided to become campground owners.

Since purchasing their campground, they have made numerous improvements to the campground, and enjoy the daily comments they receive from their campers about how nice the campground is. Tom and Pat look forward to treating their customers in a way that will leave a long-lasting positive impression of the campground and staff.

When they're not busy operating the campground, Tom and Pat can be found enjoying their time being grandparents.
