Stories from the community

2 nights at Maple Shade Farm full hookup site

They thought of everything! Even a welcome package. Just a half hour from Nashville, it was quiet and beautiful. They had full hookups and wifi. The site was spacious and level and it even had a private furnushed screened room which we thoroughly enjoyed. I highly recommend this spot!

2 nights at Maple Shade Farm full hookup site

Ditto and her husband are incredible people! We had such a lovely time and their hospitality is through the roof!

7 nights at Maple Shade Farm full hookup site

Absolutely amazing stay. Perfect location. Extremely private. The screened porch, fire pit, fenced area for the dogs, full hook ups. All amazing. I would go back in a heartbeat.

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!

Weekend Trip to Quarter Spring Farm

Truly a wonderful and relaxing weekend! Heather thank you for hosting!

Weekend Trip to Peekaboo Meadows & The Big Red Barn

Awesome spot, very easy to set up camp. Family is also very accommodating!

2 nights at Sacred Dog Ranch

Beautiful property and friendly hosts. My kids got to name kittens and enjoyed seeing all the livestock. We spent hours roaming around the gardens or in the woods, down to the creek. The cabin is very cool. My wife and I particularly enjoyed sitting on the porch for an afternoon rain storm. Quick drive to Lenny’s Country Kitchen for great food.

1 night at Lost acres

Easy to find, host was friendly and helpful, tons of space. Just reach out to make sure the hay has been cut and you'll have all the room in the world to camp.

1 night at Camp Nashville Highland Rim

I'm so glad I navigated to the site in daylight, because going up the steep drive in the night would have felt impossible. I followed the host's detailed directions and took my car SLOW and STEADY and made it up with no issues. The steep drop off on one side begs for caution going up or down, but once you're at the top, the level ground is comforting. The main campsite is spacious and in a beautiful clearing with plenty of room for a large tent and seating area. I explored the lower campsites, but did not set up there. There was some refuse in the woods, and it just did not feel as welcoming as the main site at the top of the clearing. As I was the only camper there that night, I was able to set up in my preferred site. Since sites are first come, first serve, I recommend arriving early if you're worried about sites being taken.

Weekend Trip to Wooded Nashville Nook

We loved our stay, would definitely recommend it. Nice and quite but still close enough to Nashville that you can explore and enjoy all that the city has to offer!

Weekend Trip to Peekaboo Meadows & The Big Red Barn

Fantastic host, and went above and beyond to make the camp area comfortable. It was a beautiful area and easy to find. Power is available and the barn is historic and is beautiful as well. Highly recommend!

2 nights at Benjamin's RV Sanctuary

We arrived to this Hipcamp with our 24’ camper for a 2 night stay. The site pad was a back in easy access location. The pad is next to the host home, but beautifully landscaped and manicured large backyard. A few extras made our time there even more special: a goat and chicken yard that we could access and enjoy the animals, large yard for our dogs to run off lead if we chose to And an gourmet meal prepared by our host who is a chef!! The meal was amazing and such a treat which was worth the extra charge. I highly recommend this Hipcamp!!

1 night at 4J Farms- The Red Barn

Very cute set up! Pond close by. The games in the barn was nice to ha e out of the hot sunlight. There was a coffee maker, coffee, microwave and waters there. The back side of the barn had a cute old barn looking bar area. Nice quiet secluded area away from homes and highways. No noise at all during our stay.

1 night at Flora and Fauna Camp

This space is beautiful and private. Valerie provided great directions that made it easy for us to find the spot. It feels so remote despite being so close to Nashville. Great hiking in the area with access to a stream.

Weekend Trip to Sacred Dog Ranch

Lisa’s Sacred Dog Ranch is a veritable Garden of Eden. Lisa and her family welcomed us with open arms to their beautiful home and gardens. They have stewarded the land with care and intention, cultivating a series of wonderful spaces complete with art, animals, and authenticity.

1 night at Wooded Nashville Nook

Great space. We were allowed to check in early. Close to the airport which was good for those of us traveling thru the Nashville area.

17 nights at Maple Shade Farm full hookup site

Ditto and Stan were very hospitable. They met me at the site on arrival with a gift and offered their assistance throughout my stay if needed. Enjoyed my two and a half week stay there.

Weekend Trip to Peekaboo Meadows & The Big Red Barn

What a fun spot and great camping area. Power was all set up and got my Airstream all cozied up behind the barn. Was a bit wet for walking around the property, so just had a fire and chilled.

1 night at Enchanted Cedar Glade

Extremely convenient, with a true sense of adventure on the property! John was a super friendly and welcoming host, and took me on a tour of possible tent sites to check for mud after a week of rain. I had a lovely, perfect night of tent camping under the Tennessee trees!

Weekend Trip to Peekaboo Meadows & The Big Red Barn

We had a fantastic weekend! We have stayed at the Red Barn before this time we chose the meadow. Absolutely beautiful! Thank you Matt for always being the perfect host.

Peekaboo Meadows & The Big Red Barn

2 sites · RVs, Tents40 acres · Mount Pleasant, TN

Learn more about this land: Situated just outside of Columbia, TN (one of the state's most up-and-coming cities) and right on the same road as our 11th President, James K. Polk, once lived - Peekaboo Meadows & The Big Red Barn are waiting to welcome you! Pull in, drive down the grass road and over the small creek, put it in park at the barn and go stretch your legs on the 4o+ acres surrounding. During the day, feel welcome to walk the serene meadows or take a cleared trail up the ridge to the treehouse! Don't be surprised to be greeted by all kinds of wildlife including deer, turkey, foxes, or our goofy, fun-loving Golden Doodle named "Shme." If walking isn't your thing, you are welcome to drive around (4wd recommended) to go scout out where you'd like to set up camp for the night. If you prefer more peace and privacy, there are two beautiful meadows to choose from which both reach deeper into the property. If you'd prefer the comfort of additional shelter, you are welcome to park and/or set yourself up at the barn instead (which is a little closer to the main road). There is power to the barn - providing light, 30AMP power for RV hookup, as well as an electrical receptacle that you can run your extension chords from. For the extra adventurous - you may want to take a hike up "Thornbush Trail," which follows the ridge right up the middle of the property and has beautiful views of both meadows to either side. Or, for a more direct route, take a walk right up our dirt access road to the upper ridge, where you can peek through the treeline for beautiful elevated views eastward toward Columbia. Our treehouse (in progress) is located right at the top of the access road. Though the treehouse has not yet been completed, feel free to climb the 20' ladder up the inside of the hollowed out trunk and pop your head out the top! It sure makes a great photo! Come back to the barn area in the evening to lounge in the hammock, hang out around the picnic table, or cook dinner and roast some marshmallows over the wood burning fire pit with cooking grill attachment (fireside tools & 1 bundle of firewood provided). One filtered and cooled 5 gallon portable Igloo water cooler will also be provided and placed on the picnic table outside the barn. One rolling 96 gallon covered trash bin will be placed inside the barn (please bag your trash). "Luggable Loo" portable compost toilet is also available for use inside the barn. Tho cell & wifi are spotty here on the farm, we will provide one walkie talkie during your stay for direct communication with the main residence, should there be any issues or needs that arise. On the flip side, privacy is respected and use of the electronics is completely at your discretion! For recreation (each within 15-20 minutes of the farm): 1. Williamsport Public Fishing Lakes for fishing or kayaking 2. Stillhouse Hollow Falls Trail 3. Maury County Park with paved walking trail Yummy food: 1. Puckett's Grocery and Restaurant (Also check out Hattie Jane's Creamery right next door for dessert!) 2. Shaffer Farms BBQ 3. Buck and Board Eatery 4. South Ahan (Thai) 5. China Chef (Chinese) If you're still itchin' for things to do or food to eat, we're certainly glad to provide further recommendations! Our family's goal and aim is that all would feel welcome as they come and all would feel loved as they go. We sure hope your stay is as memorable as it is enjoyable. Happy Camping!

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.

Chatty Heifer Farm

The family we bought the farm from owned and farmed it since 1900. They built a cabin then and built a house around the cabin in 1920. We bought it in 2018 and have been renovating it to build a retreat center for first responders and others who serve unselfishly. To that end, we've cut hiking trails and campsites as well as filling the farm with livestock to help people slow down and de-stress. We're located in the beautiful green hills about an hour east of Nashville, Tennessee. Learn more about this land:Drift off to sleep with the sounds of a year-round creek just outside your campsite. Wake up to a beautiful meadow surrounded by green hills in rural Tennessee. Campsites are located on a 120 year old farm under restoration, which is family owned and operated. Get some time away.

Fern Brook Nashville

3 sites · RVs, Tents37 acres · Goodlettsville, TN

This 37-acre timber farm was once part of a huge plantation owned by one of the first settlers in Tennessee. It is now registered and part of a Timber Forestry program with many old-growth trees (Tulip Poplars are Tennessee's state tree and there are some big ones here). There are steep hills and creeks weaving throughout this property. I love coming out here and escaping the city as you feel like you are deep in the woods yet still close to Nashville, Hendersonville, Old Hickory Lake and I-65. This property is surrounded by hundreds of acres of timberland which accounts for all the wildlife in the area. Learn more about this land: Pitch your tent, hang your hammock, or camp in your vehicle and listen to the year-round spring-fed streams. Feel like you are in the middle of nowhere, but know that you are still an Uber/Lyft ride away from downtown Nashville. You are also close to everything in Hendersonville, White House, Goodlettsville, and Old Hickory Lake. 1.5 miles from one of my favorite coffee shops, Authentic Coffee Co., and a handful of local restaurants (White House Pizza is a great one too and not far away). This campsite is on a 37-acre tract in the Timber Forestry program so it is all mature trees, hills, and creeks. More info on the property: There are nice year-round creeks so you'll always have water. Plenty of firewood laying around from fallen branches and limbs. Please don't cut into any live trees though. Each site is clearly marked and has a designated area. Please try to stay around your campsite out of respect for other campers. Each site has plenty of space. Don't be surprised to see animals, beautiful birds, and all kinds of wildlife. You'll also hear the woods come alive at night, especially the frogs during the spring and summer. The Owls are my favorite though. Details on the sites: There are 2 campsites close enough should you want to book multiple sites with a group, but far enough away where you will not be disturbed. Campsite #1 is the first campsite which is tucked in between two large hills right alongside a creek. Campsite #2 is a little further back in the property alongside the creek. This is slightly more open and right on the creek as well. Both sites have plenty of good spots for a tent or hammock. You can drive and park at both sites as long as you have decent ground clearance (Examples of vehicles that have stayed: Toyota Highlander, Honda CRV, Subaru Outback, Jeeps). Many cars including a Toyota Prius have also made it back though. I am constantly improving these campsites so expect tables, shovels, and all kinds of things to make your camping more enjoyable. There will also be new campsites coming soon, including an off-grid tiny cabin, and primitive sites that would require a hike to access. Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions. Thanks, Matthew
