Forgot to snap a photo before we tore down our tent. The driveways are all really deep to fit big trailers, so you get to be pretty far off the road.

Stories from the community

Weekend Trip to The Ole Place

Such a relaxing getaway. It’s well kept and quiet. This will forever be the place my dog learned to balance on the paddle board! No one else was there when I was but the sites are well spaced for privacy. Would definitely come here again.

2 nights at Belle and Beau Acres

Belle & Beau campground is the perfect base camp for waterfall viewing in the area! You’re only 30 minutes from Cummins Falls, Burgess Falls, and Rock Island. Site 4 was beautiful, we especially enjoyed the variety of flora and fungi and the appearance of synchronous fireflies was absolutely magical. Pack efficiently to get gear in and out of the campsite, the hill down to the site is no joke- but once you are settled in you are in heaven! Enjoy!

Weekend Trip to Belle and Beau Acres

Great place for my 9 year old son and I to camp! Fun times exploring the creek, waterfall and all the trails! It was exactly what we were looking for!

Weekend Trip to Belle and Beau Acres

Christine’s directions and communication throughout were fantastic! I didn’t get the chance to come due to rain, but I’m looking forward to rescheduling soon!

Weekend Trip to Belle and Beau Acres

This place was great! Easy to find, great communication from the start and the land was beautiful. We didn’t get to explore much with bad weather in the area but there was plenty to do right on the property and the sites were spacious. Definitely recommend!

3 nights at Belle and Beau Acres

Lovely camping and beautiful property. Christine is wonderful! All around great experience and we will be back!

1 night at The Falls at Sewanee Creek

What a magical place! The fairy trees and the falls is simple majestic. The sunset out in the primitive spot was fantastic. I really want to come back, stay a few more nights, and explore all this area has to offer! My dog fully enjoyed the freedom and I can’t recommend it more! Some of the info you get on the Hipcamp website varies a little bit from the email message (check in time… pet fees) but Grant was so helpful and accommodating and a great communicator! I can’t wait to come back and try the metal work class!

Unique in all the world. I’m not aware of anything like it, although I’m sure there will be copies. This is the original.

1 night at The Falls at Sewanee Creek

The tree tent site was really cool. Would have been a lot of fun with a group of people for sure. The ride over was bumpy and rocky by my dodge challenger made it so most cars should be able to get there. Grant was very nice and hospitable. The waterfall was really cool, didn’t expect it to be so big when it wasn’t that far away. I’d suggest bringing as many blankets and pillows as you can to make the tent as comfortable as possible.

Weekend Trip to The Ole Place

Fantastic site! We stayed here for 3 nights at the end of May and will most definitely be back. We have a very large tent and this site was absolutely perfect. Had plenty of room for our set up and for our two large dogs to roam on a tie out cables. The sites are very well maintained and the included firewood is a HUGE bonus. The site is located right on the pond and a short walk to the shower facility. All the sites were occupied during our stay, but spread out enough that we still felt secluded and had privacy. If you are looking for a lovely quiet stay in nature, this is it! Highly recommend!

Weekend Trip to Belle and Beau Acres

Fantastic camping site - loved hearing the stream during our whole stay. Plenty of privacy & space to spread out (2 adults, 2 kids and 1 dog). It was great meeting Christine too when we checked in - they run an awesome Hipcamp. We would love to come back!

Weekend Trip to Awakening Adventures

This was the perfect back wood experience :) Site was clean and well maintained. We hammock and tent camped this spot. Our kids enjoyed the swings... actually they enjoyed everything! Having access to the outdoor kitchen made breakfast a breeze. Anthony and his wife were so hospitable! Both the blooming flowers and morning fellowship were beautiful. Our kiddos are eager to make a return trip

Weekend Trip to Belle and Beau Acres

Belle and Beau Acres was perfect! It was the best quick getaway for myself and my dog. Christine was so gracious and responsive. It’s truly a special place. I’d recommend it to anyone and will be back again very soon!

The owners are very friendly and eager to help you if needed. The showers are GORGEOUS and their dogs were very friendly with ours.

3 nights at Harmony hollow

It was wonderful being able to Hammock camp there. The horses were very nice to see in the evenings! The fireflies were also very cool!

1 night at Belle and Beau Acres

Good balance of security and wooded areas. The dirt lanes through the forest and fields lends an air of adventure.

3 nights at Belle and Beau Acres

Amazing place to stay, scenery was just so peaceful. I will 100% stay here again.

2 nights at Belle and Beau Acres

This was a great camping spot. Nice area, nice dirt roads, nice trails, and an easy walk to the river to hang out. Perfect first camping trip for our daughter and family.

4 nights at Harmony hollow

I loved camping at Harmony Hollow. It's such a nice place. The hosts are amazing and will help you with anything you need. I'll definitely be coming back in the near future.

2 nights at Harmony hollow

My favorite part was sitting by the campfire listening to the babbling creek and watching the fireflies. This is a beautiful place to camp. It was nice to have the washing station and the shower. There are several nice touches - a basket of travel size toiletries, cute signs, twinkle lights.

2 nights at Harmony hollow

Harmony Hollow is a nice pleasant camp very close to Sevierville and Pigeon Forge. The shower was also nice after a few days without one while overlanding.

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!

The Falls at Sewanee Creek

11 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents45 acres · Tracy City, TN

45 private acres on our homestead for you to roam. Seven eclectic sites to choose from ranging from primitive camping to a lovely log cabin. All except the log cabin lovingly built by the owner, loaded with creative touches. Featuring: * Two gorgeous waterfalls. Each of our stay-sites are located within about 100-150 yards of Fifty-foot tall Miller’s Falls. * A large cave at the end of a short, but rugged hike. * A fairy Village filled with Hollow Oak Tree Fairy homes. The trees glow after dark. Magical. * Three acres for group camping centered on a well-equipped, covered outdoor kitchen. * Peaceful Meditation Retreats at the Outdoor Kitchen under brain-wave enhancing satellite dishes. * Certified Hypnotherapy Disclaimer: The flow of the waterfall is subject to fluctuations in temperature, seasonal droughts, & rain fall. The most favorable seasons for waterfall flow are fall, winter & early spring. We came to this magical place to found a self-reliant, homesteading eco-community when I retired from corporate life in 2006. It's called the Village on Sewanee Creek, named for the creek 800 feet below the bluff where we are located. I traveled the world as a senior executive for Baskin-Robbins, Dunkin' Donuts, Papa Johns, Blockbuster, 7-Eleven and other retail franchises, making the world safe for Pizza, Ice Cream, Pancakes Video Rentals and American convenience. And I was ready for something more fufilling. I scouted for a place of exquisite natural beauty and I found it here. I bought way too much land just before the real estate bust and learned how to turn a nice fortune into a very small one. I faced challenges and had lots of fun. Now I want to share our experience. It's the Village 2.0 for guests. Or not. Life in the city is OK as long as you can get away frequently. I'm convinced if you love nature and the outdoors, this is the best place to celebrate it.

Each spot has been strategically selected to provide as much privacy as possible, and comfortably accommodates groups with two vehicles. We provide a rock fire pit and heavy-duty, cast-iron grill grate. You provide everything else, including drinking water and personal toilet waste bags if you plan to use our system. The hike-in sites come with extra seating. Every guest must be included on your reservation, and adult guests may be required to provide identification. Thank you!

A toilet seat and bucket system is provided but guests will need to use their own waste disposal bags, available at most camping supply stores. The backside of the comfort station has a rain barrel (not potable) collection system for extinguishing fires.

We ask all guests to help us minimize impacts by driving with care.

Blue Heron Landing

9 sites · RVs, Tents358 acres · Lobelville, TN

Blue Heron Campground: A Hidden Gem of History and Nature Nestled along the Tennessee River, Blue Heron Campground offers a unique blend of rich history and natural beauty. Once home to the Cherokee Indians, this 358-acre property is surrounded by water on all sides, boasting a mile-and-a-half shoreline. Just to the north, a designated 20-mile Wildlife Refuge begins, following the river and offering plenty of opportunities for nature enthusiasts. The land itself is a treasure trove, with rich farmland that has grazed cattle and now offers primitive camping with no services, located just 10 miles west of Lobelville, Tennessee. People's Landing, now a swim beach and sand boat ramp, was once a bustling port of commerce. Before the advent of good roads, steamboats, ferry boats, and trains were the primary means of transportation. Just north of People's Landing, Daniel's Landing housed a post office and small store, serving the local community. The Tennessee River is one of only three rivers in the United States that flow north, making it a unique feature of the region. Today, visitors can enjoy camping, fishing, or simply watching the boats and barges pass by. For those looking to explore, a 20-mile day trip to Loretta Lynn's ranch or a 70-mile journey to Nashville awaits. The campground offers 358 acres of open meadows and forests to hike and explore, with plenty of opportunities to enjoy the local wildlife and a beautiful sunset over the river to end the day. Blue Heron Campground is truly a hidden gem, offering a perfect escape into history and nature.

Awakening Adventures

16 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents42 acres · Grandview, TN

Welcome to our serene and rejuvenating private getaway nestled within 42 acres of forested beauty. The Sanctuary offers an unparalleled experience where nature meets comfort, allowing you and your group to unwind and reconnect with the tranquil surroundings. We have added multiple tree swings throughout the forest. We are uniquely situated on the edge of the Tennessee Cumberland Plateau and the Tennessee river valley. We are currently offering 4 treehouse dwellings to share our peaceful land full of God's promises. The dwellings are spaced far enough apart for privacy yet not to far of a walk to the common area where the kitchen and shower are. You'll be surprised at how cool the tents stay under the forest canopy in the heat of summer. Then in the colder months we have various heating options to keep you cozy in 3 of the dwellings I hope you come to share this with us, it's an amazingly peaceful area. Nearly 3 miles of hiking trails to enjoy during your visit. Take a spur trail off the main trail loop and there is a prayer shelter with a fire pit inspired by Luke 6:12 in the back corner of the property. Located at the edge of the prarie on the main trail is a sunrise/sunset/bird-watching platform that is 20 feet in the air with a 2 stage bridge to access it. We updated the outdoor kitchen with a 3 burner propane stove, propane grill and hot running water with a 3 bay sink. Other cooking options include a tripod over the fire and a charcoal grill. A short 10-minute drive to fire tower rd. brings you to a 2 mile loop trail with 2 waterfalls, Upper and Lower Piney Falls. Ozone falls is just a 20 minute drive. Then toward Spring City is Stinging Fork Falls at 25 minutes. Black mountain is my new favorite place especially the south overlook! The Hiking possibilities are nearly endless and close. I'll highlight one thru hike here since both trailheads are only 20 minutes away and is easy to coordinate with only 2 vehicles. It's a 10.2 mile hike that can be done in either direction and has a little something for everyone including a cave, boulder field, cascade and waterfall. Then you have massive Watts Bar Lake which is only 20 minutes away with a plethora of activities including the excursions we offer! We look forward to hosting you!

Quarter Spring Farm

1 site · Lodging63 acres · Liberty, TN

Quarter Spring Farm is located in Liberty, TN on the western edge of the Cumberland Plateau. It comprises 63 acres of wooded ridges and hollows with exceptional hiking and distinct landscape features. Smith Fork Creek, which feeds Center Hill Lake, is visible from the campsite. Quarter Spring Farm’s history is murky and still being discovered. The house is over 100 years old. There are stone property walls that may predate the civil war. We believe this site was a Mississippian period settlement because of the large amount of artifacts we have found. Please note: there is no electricity at the dome. There will be a battery with a light and the option to charge your phone. There is no parking at the dome. The walk is uphill and takes about 5 minutes or so. This is still a tent, the dome is not insulated and is not 100% sealed. Bugs do get inside from time to time. I will also provide you with water for cleaning and at least a gallon to drink. Just let me know if you need more. If you can get here before it gets dark, that is the best. If you can’t, that’s ok, we’ll just be hiking in the dark. Luckily I know my way around pretty good.
