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.

Welcome to Hidden Valley Haven, a peaceful 11-acre retreat tucked just outside Nashville where the stars shine bright and the sounds of nature echo through the woods. Designed for self-contained RV travelers, our property offers a rustic, no-frills escape into Tennessee’s countryside — complete with electric, water, and a septic dump spot. Bring your own RV and choose between two private camping spots: 🌲 Forest Retreat Site – Tucked deeper into the property for maximum seclusion and wooded charm.

The property maps in our photo gallery clearly show: • Guest zones (RV sites, trails, drive, and hiking area) • Family-only zones (home, pool, volleyball) • Neighboring no-access land (highlighted in yellow) Staying within the marked zones keeps everyone safe and ensures good relations with nearby landowners. 🔔 Before Booking: • Bring your own RV. • Access road and bridge are solid gravel but can be muddy after heavy rain. • No smoking, parties, or loud music. • Pets must stay leashed and within guest zones. • RV waste must be dumped only at the approved station.

37mi from Mount Juliet · 1 site · Tent · Lancaster, TN
We discovered this small homestead 18 years ago. It was built by a man preparing to go off grid, but he never did. In the intervening time, we became enthralled with growing vegetables, raising ducks, grazing sheep and hiking the hills behind us. Then Nicole discovered permaculture and began the process of changing the land using these practices. With our three dogs, cats, goats, sheep, rabbits, ducks and chicken (there is only one chicken), things can be pretty merry around her. There are aquaponics and hydroponics to check out for fun. Plus, Nicole is one of the region's only craft coffee roasters, so you are in for a treat if you come visit and like coffee because she tends to make coffee most mornings. Learn more about this land: Hang your hammock or pitch your tent in the back acres of a small homestead integrating permaculture practices. Hang out in our land for your whole visit checking out the holler we live in, dunk in the creek by the road, or drive over the hill to Center Hill Marine, or across the dam to Edgar Evins State park, or canoe the Caney Fork River! Sorry - No dogs please. Kayaking and fishing is also so close you can almost hear it - but you can't. Which is good.  Our property has a composting outhouse and the outdoor shower attached to the house has hot and cold water. We also have a nice, outdoor kitchen area to share that has a big sink and blackstone griddle. There is Wifi in the kitchen area and a plug for recharging devices. The camp site is a two-minute walk from the driveway and outhouse so be prepared to carry items in and take your morning constitutional walk.  We sometimes have homestead-produced items for sale. This is a functioning homestead, so we may be hosting an open house event, processing animals, or some other fun homestead happening activity during your stay.
