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

3 nights at Cascades at Waterloo

Tent camping was AWESOME along the creek!! Beautiful dispersed campsites, gorgeous swimming hole and views!! Alice is a great host, very friendly and helpful. We will definitely be going back!!

Weekend Trip to Waterloo Falls

Loved camping on Alice’s property. It was such a beautiful site, our boys enjoyed exploring the river and swimming next to the waterfalls. We stayed over 4th of July weekend, so it was busy with the day visitors, but they do a great job giving the campsite privacy. The campsite is private, it’s easy to find, and Alice was a great host.

Weekend Trip to Belle and Beau Acres

The entire property was clean and very well kept. The campsite was great and close to the water. The host was fantastic.

3 nights at Belle and Beau Acres

Belle and Beau was an exquisite place with wonderfully private campsites. We loved site number 1! The creeks and waterfall were breathtaking and Christine was amazing and the best host. We killed our battery and Christine and her partner can't to our rescue. We don't have enough space for all the words to express our great weekend camping...

3 nights at Belle and Beau Acres

Such lovely property! Well shaded, very responsive host, maintained and clearly marked campsites, and within driving distance to several state parks. We felt very safe and had plenty of privacy. We will be back!

3 nights at Belle and Beau Acres

What a great campsite! The whole acreage is very clean and well-organized. Christine's communication is amazing and the shady sites are perfect for summer camping. We'll be back again for sure!

1 night at Wooded Nashville Nook

Elisabeth was super communicative and helpful ahead of time, and the spot was ideal! East to get into Nashville, but just out of the way enough to be quiet and slower moving. Flat, accessible, great little outside fire spot, and easy in and out. Thank you for a great stay!

2 nights at Waterloo Falls

We absolutely loved our stay at Waterloo! The falls are gorgeous, the campsite was clean and tidy (and right next to the water!), and use of the flush restroom and shower was great. Great vibe, and Alice was so kind! Only hiccup was they were doing yardwork (mowing) from about 8:30am-10am on our first morning there, sometimes really close to our camp site. Totally understand that they need to maintain the landscaping, but it was a bummer to be sipping coffee by the quiet stream and then be interrupted by the loud mower. That was the only thing that kept the experience from being perfect!

2 nights at Belle and Beau Acres

We really enjoyed our stay at belle and beau we stayed two nights unfortunately it rained on our second day there but did not deter us from enjoying our stay right on a brook as we stayed at camp site 2 a little bit of hike up hill on your way out but I am 56 and a little chunky just took a rest as needed. Only animals we saw were frogs and one snake not sure if it was a cotton moth or just water snake either way we was in the water and it avoided us so it’s all good. To make a long story short Christine has a wonderful place and I will definitely be back

Weekend Trip to Waterloo Falls

Alice is a fantastic host! The zen and breathtaking views made us add an additional night to continue enjoying it! We traveled with our two dogs and they couldn’t get enough of the waters and waterfall. We spent more time at the upper falls as it was easier swimming conditions for the pups. Alice was extremely helpful our entire stay and even gave us some insight for some additional views and hikes! The tent is stocked with everything you need. In fact, we brought too many things that were already provided. We can’t wait to come back! Has been one of my most enjoyable Hicamp stays so far!

Weekend Trip to Cascades at Waterloo

We very much enjoyed Creekside 1 campsite. Short hike from the parking area and right next to the creek. Easy access for swimming or fishing. Plenty of room for tents.

Weekend Trip to On the back of the farm

The quietness was amazing could not hear anything slept so peacefully

Weekend Trip to Belle and Beau Acres

We enjoyed the Christine’s land, it was very quite , peaceful environment along with short distance trails.

Weekend Trip to Belle and Beau Acres

So this was my 1st camping trip. I’m glad we chose to do it here on Christine’s land. It was a beautiful property with plenty of privacy. There are trails and parks close by to visit. I can’t recommend this place enough. 5 stars!

Weekend Trip to Belle and Beau Acres

Everything was excellent. The place is very well maintained.

Weekend Trip to Belle and Beau Acres

We’ve been to Belle & Beau Acres several times and it never disappoints. Christine is always so great about communication. And the land is beautiful and very well maintained. It’s the perfect place to get away from it all with some friends and family!

Weekend Trip to Belle and Beau Acres

We had a wonderful experience at Belle and Beau Acres while celebrating a birthday away from the city. The property was peaceful and charming, exactly what we were looking for. Christine was incredibly kind and responsive, always ready to help with any questions we had throughout our stay. One of the highlights was the waterfall hike. It was gorgeous and our service dog, Moose, absolutely loved it! We even found a small rock with Crinoid fossils, which was such a cool surprise. All in all, it was a relaxing and memorable trip. We’re already looking forward to coming back!

Weekend Trip to Belle and Beau Acres

I really enjoyed camping at Christine’s! She was there to greet us upon arrival. The campsite felt private and spaced out from the other campers.

Due to circumstances beyond our control, we are broken hearted to announce that we will be closing our doors at midnight on July 13th 2025. We want to thank everyone that has came out to the farm over the past five years and supported us. It was a genuine pleasure to have the opportunity to meet each and every one of you, and to share our beautiful family farm with you, your families and friends. We will be refunding anyone with reservations after the 13th of July 2025 and hope that you all can find another hidden gem like ours, and continue to enjoy and make memories in the great outdoors. Thank you so much for all of your amazing support, reviews, and recommendations over the years. Our hipcampers are what made The Slab such an amazing place, and we are truly sorry that things didn't work out to where we could stay open. Kent and I are still looking into other options as to how we could move forward in the future with the part of the farm that we still own. So stay tuned for announcements for 2026.

BBA guests frequently camp with a tent, vehicle, smaller camper, hammock tent, roof top tent, pop-up camper and similar styles. Most photos in this listing are taken onsite.

Each spot has been strategically selected to provide as much privacy as possible, and comfortably accommodates groups with two vehicles.

If you want a campsite with the shortest walk from the entrance parking area, you will want to select campsite 5, 9 or 6.

Run-A-Muck on the Red River

17 sites · RVs, Tents6 acres · Adams, TN

As a child I grew up on the river, canoeing down Red River and even playing on this very piece of property. Thirteen years ago my best friend and I started a canoe and kayak company to allow people to experience the same things that we experienced as children. We have met thousands of people and had opportunities to become friends with many of them. We look forward to seeing them every year. Three years ago we were able to purchase this piece of property for the kayak company and watch it grow into more than we ever thought it would be. It's almost surreal owning a piece of property that you played on as a kid. We are very thankful to have it and share it with others, and hope that they'll have some of the same experiences that we have had on it. Learn more about this land: Pitch a tent or hammock (where available) next to the Red River, across the river from Port Royal State Park and adjacent to the historic Trail of Tears. You can camp along the river or out in the open. Seven minutes from the interstate (exit 8 or 11 on I-24). You can fish or swim in the river, try local restaurants in Clarksville, or just hang out and enjoy being outside. If you want to make a reservation to go kayaking, visit the website Runamuckoutfitters.com Also on site is a food truck called "The Dairy Dog", where you can enjoy craft hotdogs, tater tots, pub chips, milkshakes, and beer. They are open Friday-Sunday from 11-8.
