Clayton Geneva Memorial Camp Ground

25 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents18 acres · Williamsburg, KY
Thank you for considering Clayton Geneva memorial campground for your camping trip. Please read the entire description including our rules and regulations. Also be sure to view the site map. The gravel driveway to the sites is passable with any vehicle. We offer camping ranging from primitive tent sites, to an actual cabin. We have some construction going on currently on at the main cabin on the property. Construction takes place 9am-5pm daily. A deck & siding is being added. 10/1-11/15 Hikers, Horses and riders welcome, located a couple miles from Daniel Boone National Forrest, seemingly endless trails through some of the most beautiful country. Bring your canoe and kayaks. Located 16 miles from Cumberland Falls State Park. Located 11 miles from Sheltowee Trade Adventure Park. Located 11 miles from Kentucky Splash Water Park. Clayton Geneva Camp Ground began as a retreat for our family since the 70's. My grandparents, Donald Clayton Russell & Jewel Geneva (Davis) Russell, purchased this little piece of heaven to get away from the hustle and bustle of Cincinnati life. Judy was born in a little cabin just down the road. Judy & Don along with many family members have made cherished memories here over the years. We want to share its beauty with you and your family. Guests love staying here "We stayed in Birdsong cabin for the Halloween campout weekend. The cabin was ready for us upon arrival and very clean. We enjoyed the privacy of our covered porch and fire ring. The bird feeders hanging all around the cabin are wonderful to watch all the birds during the day. The community fire ring is close enough to enjoy with other campers, but not to close that we could hear anyone in our cabin. Amber and Michael checked on our needs many times during our stay. They hosted a chili cook-off that we greatly enjoyed and passed out candy to all the kids. Overall a great time and experience. We will stay here again."

Twin Valley Horse Ranch

5 sites · Lodging100 acres · Walland, TN
My late husband and myself bought the property in 1983 and it was all just overgrown land!We worked, cleared, built horse shelters/barns, cabins, cut trails, built the outdoor chapel for our wedding and of course fenced it all in for the horses! Started sharing with guests in 1993, so we have met so many amazing folks from all over the world!  Pass thru our gate into another world and leave all your worries and tensions behind. We are all about getting back to what is real -- nature, animals/horses and each other. Complete privacy!There are many mountain trails leaving right from our property! Lots to explore. You can even hike to the outdoor chapel with the pretty view of the Chilhowee Mountain range.  It is a short hike to the barn area for those who want to spend time rubbing the pot belly pigs' tummy, walk the mini horses, groom the love bug~Junebug (donkey), pet horses, cuddle with bunnies and feed chickens!  Every morning and night we set a time for all those who want to become involved with the care/feeding of petting animals and horses!

Top of the World Lake Access

1 site · Tent1 acre · Tallassee, TN
CAMPSITE DETAILS: You are invited to enjoy a portion of a newly acquired mountain retreat nestled in the Great Smoky Mountains with Private Lake Access! It is a humble beginning with less than half an acre of newly excavated steep mountain terrain but it is easily accessible from Foothills Parkway near Townsend and Maryville, Tennessee. The main attraction is relaxing and having fun at the community manmade lakes such as the 50 acre Lake in the Sky. The private Top of the World Community Recreation Area has a beach with Adirondack chairs, boat ramp, horseshoe poles, and a basketball court. On school days during the week, you may be the only one(s) there! The campsite itself is a mere gravel parking area at the foot of our steep property next to a road. We have a mulched tent site next to the gravel parking area. Refer to many more site details listed next to the Tent Site entry such as newly added rainwater flushable toilet house. Book now to get this opportunity at the lowest price as we get started! Unavailable during winter months. If you would prefer to camp directly on one of the private lakes then look up our friend’s “Rowin’ with the Flo” Hipcamp site. If you need pavement with RV hookups then check out the newly renovated Great Smoky Mountains National Park Look Rock Campground just up the hill, but they do not provide private lake access of course.

Come enjoy the peace and serenity that God has bestowed on us. Step out of the rat race and enjoy slow pace of the country, the scenery and animals. Or go fishing or ride your motorcycle on the many nearby motorcycle rides like Tail of the Dragon, The Mini Dragon, Copperhead Road and many others. The locals are friendly and the scenery is breathtaking. Come and relax and take in the fresh country air.Learn more about this land:Pitch your tent near the creek. Enjoy the sounds of rippling water, beautiful night sky and a communal campfire if you’d like. There are few amenities as we are just starting off. But we are flexible, accommodating and will allow use of our porta-potty and water well, if you need. Just ask for drinking water as we collect it in jugs at the spring for ourselves and will be happy to share. We have over 50 acres to explore and even an old log cabin if you care to brave the woods to find it.

Teepee Camp

1 site · Lodging20 acres · Newport, TN
Dear Spirit brothers and sisters, greetings with blessings. This 20 acres on beautiful rolling foothills of the Great Smoky mountains is any very private but very easily accessed spot. The whole land is aromatherapy with about 80% of it being cedar trees. There are three little 20 ft ponds. Land borders a small little unmarked old looking half paved half Stone road called , W. Turner Ridge road. The just finished 15 ft diameter TP is made of 8 cedar tree poles. This TV has granted and marble 1 in thick Stone floor. There is a 4 ft dirt circle in the middle for making a fire and the smoke exits out the covered peak. The only picture I can find is when the TP was being built and the marble and granite floor was not installed yet. The TV is in a nice private spot overlooking the neighbors pretty rolling Hill pasture. And on the other side of the TP about 100 ft to the east I have a 30 foot by 30 ft copper tubing pyramid built for meditation and sending out blessings and calming the nervous system. There are 2 picnic tables next to the TP with stone tops. You are welcome to hike all the way around the land. There are several trails cut through the woods. Plus the order of the 20 acres is mostly fenced and Mark with markers on the east side that's not fenced. About 50 ft from the TP is a small 10 ft tent TP that has a hanging bag camping shower and portable toilet. There are two cots in the TP with 4 inch thick foam mattresses. The two cots can be put side by side to sleep next to one another. Sleeps 2 ? The TP is $69 a night. Lake Douglas is only 2 mi away ,on Holt Town road going west. I have a kayak and a blow up raft for two . rent for $20 for half a day, each. There is also a nice sunlight 25 ft Camper here with a bed in the front and a bed in the back the kitchen and bathroom in the middle. Sleeps up to 4. This is a pretty private spot also about 900 ft from the teepee. Camper is $39 a night for 2. Has propane stove top and for heet. & Flushing toilet. Uses my rain water jugs of water to flush. But for #2 there is an outside toilet in woods 50 ft away. Has clothes line also. Teepee and Tiny also have clothes lines. Buckets for hand washing things. Rain water in Barrels provided. Has ice chest. The third rental here is a 10x20 ft story and a half tiny home with two lofts inside. It is about another 250 ft further across the land from the camper. Tiny home has three beds. One bed in each loft on each end, plus a single bed below. One loft has king size bed. Built only 6 years ago. Has kitchen with propane stove top, ice chest small eating table for two or three. With lofting 10-ft ceiling over table area. Bathroom toilet with shower stall in the rear for Spong baths. Also has a covered porch about 4 ft by 6 ft. This is in a nice private spot also with cedar trees on the back side and on the porch side overlooks a couple rolling hills which do you like to travel at the bottom of. Tiny home will sleep up to 6. =$69 W Turner Ridge road dead ends after about 3/4 of a mile after leaving Point Pleasant road. Then becomes a dirt road for about a mile across a small mountain Rd. Therefore this is a good hiking or mountain biking road with a fairly steep 100 ft area of the road. Once it turns to dirt road it is Forest with no homes. I am looking to buy a 12-ft or so Jon boat, but don't yet have it. Coming from interstate 81 that goes north and south on the east side of Morristown, go to the southeast at exit 12 on highway 160 which is a two-lane road. Go only about 6 mi then make a right on Holt Town road which is a two-lane road also. If you miss Old Town road you will come to a Dollar general about a half a mile down. Then you can fire supplies there and turn back around and go back North on 160 then you would make a left onto Holt Town road. Go only 2 miles west and southwest on Holt Town road then make a right on to Point Pleasant road then only 50 make a right onto west Turner Ridge road I am the second Stone driveway on the left which is only about 800 ft. 545 is painted with white paint on the left Cedar Post on the left side of the driveway coming in. But this post is about 50 ft up the driveway so it's hard to read the number that far away. During summer 10 miles away in Newport there is an outdoor park with an outdoor swimming pool and tennis courts and swing sets and monkey bars for children and picnic tables for picnicking. This is the new part City Park there is also a boat ramp five miles away my finger of Lake Douglas. It's a straight drive on Holt Town road to the boat ramp, which is right before you come to the big 400 ft long bridge going over the finger of Lake Douglas. Morristown has a big shopping mall with hey steakhouse on one end and in the middle five below store in Dick's sporting goods and on the outskirts of the parking lot of the mall is a Olive garden and a McDonald's restaurant. There is a really good restaurant about 3 miles ,called , CJ Papadops, which was started by a lady from Greece and her husband who is a local .Very nice people with super good food ! About $20 a plate Good ! Newport is a very small town but it does have a Walmart on the south side of interstate 40. In Newport is also a really super interesting Collectibles store. They must have a million dollars of antique collectible toys and all kinds of kitchen utensils and jewelry etc. It is on the north side of Newport on highway 321 that goes up to Greenville, TN. From there Greenville is only about 20 or 25 miles. I also have a badminton set and tennis rackets and balls. Also I am a natural health healer specializing in alphabiotics alignment. I was very ill for years after having a very bad back injury in the military , which rendered me unable to even walk. A spirit brother with a massive amount of Faith spoke life to my body and 3 days later I work and could walk slowly. Then I met a man that did alphabiotics alignment. As soon as he aligned me I was instantaneously twice as strong and could jump in halfway run! Therefore I determined right then I must become an alphabiotic aligner. I ask for a donation of $30 or more for this. It will help any and all ailments that you have. It opens up pinched up nerves at the base of the brains and allows the energy from the brain back to parts of the body that have been pinched off. Tent campn only $22. RVs = $30 and up depending on size due to driveway damage. 30 ft probably max to turn around. Blessings from your new friend Robert.

Lakeside camping in Norris Lake with fishing guide

Overview

A 34,000-acre reservoir on the Powell and Clinch rivers, Norris Lake is 30 miles northwest of Knoxville. Campgrounds and marinas surround the lake, so access to watersports and fantastic bass fishing is a breeze for campers, while surrounding state parks spotlight East Tennessee’s mountain-and-river terrain and its Appalachian culture. The Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) and the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) developed several of these state parks during the Great Depression, and CCC-built facilities are still in use today. Glamping options include farm sites, canvas tents, and tiny homes—and birdwatching and hiking are popular no matter where you stay nearby.

Where to go

Anderson County

Campgrounds are scattered along the shoreline beside Norris Dam, which sits at the southwestern edge of the lake in Anderson County. Small towns with camping, glamping, and RV sites include Rocky Top, Norris, and Andersonville.

Norris Dam State Park

The 19 cabins built by the Civilian Conservation Corps at Norris Dam State Park merge Depression-era history with modern amenities. The sprawling lakefront park also has two campgrounds, both with tent and RV campsites. A marina and a Southern Appalachia museum are bonus highlights.

Big Ridge State Park

Lakeside campsites accommodate tents and RVs at Big Ridge State Park, another Depression-era park constructed by the TVA and the CCC. Watersports are popular here, but hikers have plenty of options too, with 15 miles of trails exploring the forests, hollows, and ridges. Campgrounds are also scattered across the towns of Maynardville and New Tazewell.

Knoxville

Tennessee’s capital and the home of the University of Tennessee, Knoxville is a convenient launchpad for campers looking to mix urban adventuring with paddling and fishing at Norris Lake. In Knoxville, ride the elevator to the observation area atop the soaring Sunsphere, then check out the quarry and the nature center inside the Urban Wilderness, a network of parks and multi-use trails scattered across the city. Campgrounds surround the downtown area.
