Campers are reminded that a Tennessee fishing license is needed to fish along the Harpeth River, yet with such an abundance of fish, it is always worth it. Alongside the great fishing to be had here, boating is also a popular pastime at Harpeth River State Park. The river and state park has several put-in and takeout points in close proximity, making it the perfect place for both canoeing and kayaking. Boaters can easily complete a 7-mile trip along the looping meander of the Harpeth in Tennessee’s Western Highland Rim. Those motorhome camping without their own boats should not worry too much, just head to the local ‘Foggy Bottom Canoe and Kayak Rentals’ just south of the park.
