Weekend Trip to Campingallstars

Chris’s land was very secluded but easily accessible. We really enjoyed our two night stay. Very close to Dismal Canyons and a few miles from town in case you need anything. I would suggest taking water for drinking/cleaning up. I would definitely recommend and I am planning another trip soon.

Our stay at Silverwater Campground in Counce Tennessee was an awesome stay. A stone's throw away from Shiloh National Military Park. Covered RV sites with full hookups at a terrific price. Host very accommodating. Have family in the area. We will definitely be back. Highly recommend.

The lot was very level, private and completely covered. The host was very helpful. Only stayed one night and wish it had been longer to see the surrounding area.

Enjoyed my 2 night stay in the woods. Abundance of wildlife, woodland hiking options, private. Limited level spots for tent, ample opportunities for hamock with beautiful views. Trav is very friendly and excited about sharing the experience of woodland nature on his property.

Chris is an excellent host, great communication, friendly, and dedicated to making your stay enjoyable. We primitive camped on the side of a vally that was beautiful. It had a nice clean stream for water, a level area for our tent, a fire pit, and the mountain laurel was in bloom. We saw deer and there are even glow worms on the property, close to tent site two where we stayed. The trails and sites were marked well. A big thank you to Chris and his family for an enjoyable camp. God bless.
