This hidden paradise has a waterfall that used to have a mill on it in the early 1900's. There are cliffs on each side of the creek making it the perfect spot for serene relaxation. Following upstream is an assortment of spots to pitch a tent. The most notable sites are surrounded by hemlock tree's and is peaceful when birds chirp over the small rapids echoing from the large overhang
*I am in the process of making multiple sites but until I do so it is first come first serve. There are multiple sites at main campsite and along creek, I've had a private event of thirty people staying at once. There are also smaller spots next to waterfall, uphill near cliff and I've had people go below falls for some complete wilderness (blocked by gorge and waterfall). With this being said, I do offer private bookings and accommodate special events!
*I travel for work, so I won't always be here, but I will send directions and details after confirmation and make sure all is savvy during. Please be respectful to one and another and let me know asap if any issues arise but truthfully everyone has been amazing and I thoroughly enjoy meeting and getting to know everyone!
Thanks for your contribution in turning my dream into a reality!

Camping Enthusiasts—Your Adventure Awaits on Spring Creek!
Welcome to your perfect nature escape—over a mile of stunning Spring Creek frontage with soaring limestone cliffs, shaded woodlands, and peaceful creekside campsites. Whether you’re an avid angler, wildlife watcher, or simply someone who enjoys the sounds of rushing water and rustling leaves, this hidden gem offers a truly immersive back-to-nature experience.
The Campsites
From elevated cliffside views to tucked-away creekside spots, each site offers a unique perspective of the landscape. Ideal for experienced backpackers, all campsites are walk-in (no more than one mile), with select areas accessible by 4WD. We strongly encourage Leave No Trace principles—pack in, pack out, and help preserve the natural beauty for future guests.
Creekside Activities
Spend your days cooling off in natural swimming holes, floating along the creek, or casting a line for smallmouth and redeye bass. The area is rich with wildlife—you may spot otters, mink, deer, and a variety of birds ranging from songbirds to bald eagles. In spring and early summer, wildflowers blanket the forest floor, bringing vibrant color to your hikes.
Nearby Attractions
A short walk downstream leads you to Waterloo Falls, a scenic destination featuring two waterfalls, outdoor recreation areas, and an event space. Guests can access this area by adding a day-use fee to their reservation (details provided after booking). Please note that Waterloo Falls may close periodically for private events, so we recommend checking availability in advance.
Just one mile away, Bend of the River Gun Range offers a convenient option for shooting enthusiasts. For everyday needs, Cookeville is only a 20-minute drive, with grocery stores, restaurants, and supply shops—close enough for convenience, yet far enough to fully unplug.
Important Notes
This is a primitive camping experience with no electricity, plumbing, or RV hookups. Guests must bring their own water, cooking equipment, and waste disposal supplies. The terrain is rugged and best suited for experienced campers comfortable navigating natural landscapes.
Come for the solitude. Stay for the soul-filling connection to nature.

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!

Find peace at this private campsite close to Watts Bar Lake. Nestled in the tall trees, your large, private site features a fire pit, picnic table, and a “Tennessee Bathroom.” Site is nearly 100% shaded all day long. The area is surprisingly quiet. Deer, turkey, turtles, frogs, and cardinals have all been seen on the property. Before you exit your tent in the morning, stay quiet and look out first - who knows what you might see. Parking is right next to the site.
Watts Bar Lake is within a few hundred yards and a public boat ramp is just about 3 minutes down the road. Watts Bar is over 72 miles long, 722 miles of shoreline, and is known for good fishing, kayaking, birdwatching, and other recreation.
This is a good base for day trips to Knoxville, Chattanooga, Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg, and Smoky Mountain National Park.
Note: Bring your own tent/supplies, or options include tent and/or propane tank rental. Pack out your own food, animal, and human waste. As this is private property, it is still the woods of Tennessee, so expect all that goes along with that. This property is in development, so added lodging and amenities will come on line in the future. We welcome your feedback.
Enjoy the Tennessee peace and tranquility for one night or more!

Guests love staying here: "I came up to Sparta, Tennessee to heal my lungs from the Red Tide. I definitely healed up well at Dan’s cabin in Sparta!! I loved writing music on my cabin porch looking at beautiful green hills with mini ponies roaming around!! The trails on the property were awesome! And at night i loved picking on the guitar with Dan and his family! They were so kind and real genuine people! I highly recommend this hip camp, he has multiple cabins, all unique and special! Plus its close to so many amazing state parks, waterfalls, and swimming holes!!!"

Really nice well kept spots, well spaced, most of them very private. I choose site three and after viewing the others I think I choose the best one. All of them are nice tho and I did not view the hike in spots as they are private to those who reserve them. The hiking trails were short , which worked well with my limited time there, but most led to a nice private stream. Had it been a bit warmer I can only imagine how nice it would have been to shower under the little waterfall (soap free of course). There is a nearby highway, it is distant enough that it is not bothersome at all, but if you're looking for that dead silent but for the sounds of nature night, you won't quite have that. Nice custom cooking grates for the fire rings.

This was by far one of the best camping experiences we have had as a family.
There is SO MUCH SO CLOSE to the campsite
You pull into parking and there's a wrapping trail that follows the creek starting at the top looking down off a 50-100 foot cliff (rough estimate) going around to the bottom where on the opposite side your looking up a 50 -100 foot cliff
Creek is right next to the campsite so you get to listen and hear the water all day and night it was amazing. The Water was lower when we went which was better for us as we had a toddler that could play with her life vest. There was two swimming holes i didn't get to check out in that bend that I can't wait to next time
Next jus a lil further down at their venue there is two water falls and a amazing wrapping cliff.
We played in the larger waterfall for one day and it was a blast
We got some pics and there's others on this site but truthfully the saying pictures don't do it justice really has never been more relevant. Alice was a amazing host and super helpful Thanks you so much for sharing your land with us and allowing us to experience this we can't wait to come back

We booked for the whole family to come because we know there is plenty of room, but it just ended up being my husband and me. This site always makes my heart feel at peace and you cannot beat the views! The hammocks weren’t there, but our chairs and the chairs provided worked out just fine! High recommend going here for a small group or a whole family! Close to hiking and breathtaking waterfalls, but is also a great place to just hang out by the fire and read.
