Farm stays in Pickwick Lake

·

Thanks to the Tennessee Valley Authority and its dam-building prowess in the 1930s, vast reservoirs are scattered across the Volunteer State. Like most of them, Pickwick Lake is a hotspot for outdoor recreation, with bass fishing, boating, swimming, tubing, and water skiing among its top activities. Stretching 53 miles from southwest Tennessee across Mississippi and Alabama on the Tennessee River, Pickwick Lake’s shoreline is dotted with campsites, as is the surrounding countryside. Fun fact: A literature-loving postmaster named the area after a Charles Dickens’ novel, the Pickwick Papers, in the mid-1800s.

Thanks to the Tennessee Valley Authority and its dam-building prowess in the 1930s, vast reservoirs are scattered across the Volunteer State. Like most of them, Pickwick Lake is a hotspot for outdoor recreation, with bass fishing, boating, swimming, tubing, and water skiing among its top activities. Stretching 53 miles from southwest Tennessee across Mississippi and Alabama on the Tennessee River, Pickwick Lake’s shoreline is dotted with campsites, as is the surrounding countryside. Fun fact: A literature-loving postmaster named the area after a Charles Dickens’ novel, the Pickwick Papers, in the mid-1800s.

Welcome to Fisherman's Hideaway RV Park (FHRP), located directly on the beautiful Tennessee River near Clifton, Tennessee. This small, brand new RV park is located inside Paradise Landing, an RV community of residents and guests who enjoy the peaceful and remote environment. At Fisherman’s Hideaway, we’re open year-round so you can enjoy riverfront RV living during all four seasons. Our community area is designed to provide you with a relaxing area adjacent to the water. One buddy pad is available for those traveling together in two RVs, or for those single RVers who would like more space. Two large single pads are also available. All RV pads are compacted, level, and are topped with small gravel that eliminates the dragging of mud and dirt into your RV. Are you looking forward to lighting up the outdoor fire pit? FHRP has individual bundles of high-quality, seasoned firewood available on-site for purchase. FHRP is a remote location, so you will need to bring all supplies with you. The nearest towns, Clifton and Linden, are small and they do have basic necessities. Clifton is about a 20-minute drive and Linden is about 40-minutes. You can find much more about the area under the Local Services tab on the FHRP website. This is the ideal destination for an active family vacation or a laid back retreat...and it’s 100% pet-friendly. Come unwind on the famous Tennessee River. Enjoy a relaxing day fishing on the river and a quiet evening of stargazing -- all from your camp site. Endless fun and adventures await you and your family at FHRP!

Farm stays in Pickwick Lake guide

Where to go

Pickwick Dam Area

South of Pickwick Dam, Pickwick Landing State Park is watersports central, with a marina and an array of boat rentals, including kayaks, canoes, fishing boats, and pontoon party barges. Landlubbers may prefer to play the 18-hole golf course, try their hand at disc golf, or stroll the two easy hiking trails. Campers will find lakefront tent sites and RV sites. North of the river, the Bruton Branch State Recreation Area has primitive tent sites, most of them by the water.

Southwest Tennessee

For more tent and RV campsites, check out the small towns and farms near the lake and the Tennessee River in southwest Tennessee. Glamping options—think cabins, Airstream rentals, and horse farms—are plentiful too, and many have boat ramps. Top small towns for camping include Counce, Savannah, and Henderson, and the TVA manages the 92-site Pickwick Dam Campground in Savannah.

Mississippi & Alabama

Skinny Pickwick Lake stretches from Tennessee into the northern reaches of Mississippi and Alabama, where waterfront campgrounds are just as recreation-focused as their neighbors in Tennessee. Cabins and campsites are close to both the lake and the Tennessee River at J.P. Coleman State Park, which is perched on a lakeside bluff in Mississippi.

Memphis & Jackson Surrounds

Home to the National Civil Rights Museum, blues-playing Beale Street, Elvis Presley’s Graceland, and a booming food hall scene, Memphis is a full-immersion destination. Not far from the city and close to the Mississippi, campgrounds, RV parks, and glamping destinations are plentiful on farms and forestlands. Memphis is 120 miles west of Pickwick Lake, while Jackson, another urban launchpad, is 60 miles north of Pickwick Dam.
