Lone Branch Access

Lone Branch Access provides a public boat ramp for launching onto Old Hickory Lake's 22,500-acre reservoir, located just 30 minutes east of Nashville near Mt. Juliet.

The day-use recreation area features shaded grounds with picnic facilities and two group shelters (each accommodating up to 50 people with electric hookups), though parking is limited and cannot be reserved in advance.

Note that this is a first-come, first-served facility open year-round for day use, with group shelters available for reservation through Recreation. gov.
