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."

Cabins with dock

2 sites · Lodging1 acre · Somerset, KY

Our property sits on a finger of Cumberland Lake. The Lake is maintain and owned by the Army Corp of Engineers. Our property has one of the few docks that are grandfathered in to the rules of the lake. We bought this property as a summer home for our family and we are fortunate enough to have two small cabins on the property we are willing to share. We took a break during COVID and used our cabins for family but now that things are back to normal, we are ready to meet new people. Both cabins have indoor plumbing, a small kitchen area with a microwave, coffee pot, mini frig and sink. They have been remodeled and have covered balconies that overlook the hillside and water below. It's a beautiful, peaceful getaway that feels like you are miles from the city but really you are a mile from grocery stores, gas, and entertainment. If you are not familiar with Cumberland Lake, please review the pictures here to appreciate the distance and steepness of the hill that must be walked to get to the water. Part of the path is large gravel steps and part is just a trail through the woods, it winds and slopes and can be very slick in the rain. Everyone says it's not bad going down but coming back up is a challenge. This property is not for you if you have mobility issues.

The Farmers Forest

3 sites · Lodging12 acres · Plainview, TN

Welcome to 'The Farmers Forest' by Keeper and Guardian Farmstead. We've built a very unique and private site that is exclusive to our Farm. We have a beautiful abundance of wildlife and because we center around maintaining a healthy balance for our Farm and Forest; we keep our camp booked for less than 15 nights a month. This ensures our wildlife the freedom to still pass and not feel crowded out and for our Farm to rest in between social interactions. This makes for the best and most full experience you can have when you stay at the one and only 'Equilibirum Escape'. Besides the adventure that awaits you on our grounds, this is also a fantastic location to enjoy several amenities such as: 1) Smokey Mountains 1hr 2) Downtown Knoxville 35mins 3) Big Ridge State Park 25mins 4) Hickory Star Marina 15mins 5) Grocery stores within 10mins 6) Seven Springs Winery 7mins Regardless if you choose to stay put or venture off site, you have many options within a very reasonable distance to maximize your stay! The access to camp is off a main route, therefore we are an easy drive from the hustle and bustle. But once you are on the grounds, your site will take you deep into the tranquility of the earth. At night there's no telling what visitors (don't worry we mean the 4 legged kind) may pass through or the melody of creatures you may hear. Our Farm is located on site and private tours and experiences are available if you'd like to bolster your stay. But if you want to just unplug, hike, explore or star gaze then come elevate to the next level camping!
