Low Meadow Farms (formerly Brown Bike Farms) is a serene four-acre meadow bordered by Burnett Creek. The campground is an easy distance to Downtown Knoxville and an even easier access to all that South Knox's Urban Wilderness has to offer. It uniquely offers a hint of backcountry camping without the 25-mile hike in. It is a great way to test the waters for primitive camping or an easy stop close to the city for a seasoned traveler. It is best suited for car camping, RVs, tent, and hammock camping. There are fire pits and picnic tables at each site with enough room for tents and RVs. Most sites have trees suitable for hammock camping all along the creek. There is potable water, firewood for sale, solar showers, and a bike wash stand all next to the covered communal area. Each standard site can accommodate 2 people to keep space between groups and lessen the impact on the land. Sites 10 and 13 can each accommodate 6 guests. If you have more in your group, we recommend reserving an adjoining campsite. Sites 1, 2 and 3 are off the main path to the left of the property, and still by the creek. Sites 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9 are all along the creek and gravel drive Site 10 is very private with creek access on three sides. Site 11 is private with creek access all along the front. Site 12 is up high on a hill, and Site 13 is open in the middle of the meadow.

Please consider, Clayton Geneva is a primitive campground, gravel drives and left as natural as possible. This is not a sculpted campsite or a concrete campground.

5 nights at Ellis Cove

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had a wonderful stay and highly recommend this property! It was the perfect location for a reunion with close friends. They flew in from another state and stayed in one of the tiny homes while we parked our RV in a campsite right beside them. The property is peaceful, beautiful, and well maintained. Our children loved catching lightning bugs, playing cornhole, fishing, and swimming in the river. We recommend bringing floats, tubes, or inflatable kayaks. The river flows gently—just enough to make floating enjoyable without being too fast. The fishing was great, and we did see several snakes in the river, but they kept their distance and we simply gave them plenty of space. The location is convenient to Gatlinburg and Great Smoky Mountains National Park. We also highly recommend visiting the nearby Blowing Cave Mill and taking the tour—it was one of the highlights of our trip. We enjoyed meeting the owner and learning about the history of the property, which was once part of his family's farm. It's wonderful that the family shares this beautiful land while preserving its natural character. We had no issues getting our RV in or out. The mountain roads are narrow and winding in places, but that's to be expected and wasn't a problem if you take your time. Bring bug spray—we encountered some fire ants, which is simply part of enjoying the outdoors. Overall, this was a fantastic experience, and we hope to return again someday!

Yes! Ellis Cove was an excellent Hip Camp! It is close enough to the Great Smoky Mountain National Park that we enjoyed the park trails and waterfalls but far enough from the tourism of Gatlinburg to miss the chaos! It was easily accessed and had plenty of space. For pull through spaces, I felt it was a slightly-tight turn but could be accessed by pulling through their circle drive and coming at it from the other direction. We camped in Site 7. I liked it and would book it again. There was one other camper while we were there in Site 5. All the sites seemed flat, Site 6 seemed more even but the grassy area is not. We like to put up a screen room on the site so I was happy with 7. I am suggesting you look closely at 9, it’s like a thoroughfare and while we were there the people in the cabin parked right there. If that’s what’s left, great but otherwise, choose another spot!!

Weekend Trip to Ellis Cove

We had a wonderful family camping trip here and truly enjoyed every moment. The campground was peaceful, well-maintained and perfect for a relaxing getaway. One of the highlights of our stay was river tubing in the creek behind our campsite. Our kids absolutely loved it! The host was incredibly kind and flexible, graciously accommodating our request to shift our reservation by a day due to some travel logistics. That level of understanding and hospitality made the experience even better. Everything on the property was clean, organized and working exactly as expected. We would absolutely recommend this campground to anyone looking for a quiet, family-friendly escape in nature.

4 nights at Patrick's Point River Camp

This place is my new favorite campground! Both Patrick and Angelica are very hospitable and even let us set up camp closer to the river than the site we'd originally booked! The campground is well maintained, but still gives the 'untouched natural beauty' vibe we were looking for. The night skies are just GORGEOUS and I truly cannot say enough nice things about our hosts. We opted for a costa rican breakfast the morning of our departure and I've got a new favorite snack(cinnamon sugar fried plantains!) This campground is close to national parks and plenty of outdoor activities- we're going to have to come back and explore more, because 4 days was not nearly long enough!

Very convenient to Great Smoky National Forest without having to be in a crowded campground lined up cheek by jowl. Very quiet and peaceful, located near a creek; we could hear the soothing sound of rushing water all day. The road leading into the Hipcamp was a bit twisty/turny but we made it there without any problems. It’s about a 30 minute scenic-drive to the entrance of the NP but that includes driving through Gatlinburg. Everything in the camp is new and we were very comfortable. There was only one other camper in the camp while we were there.

Ellis Cove was absolutely beautiful!! Such a serene setting nestled within the hills about 25 minutes to the east of Gatlinburg. The grounds are situated right next to a rushing river. A couple of the sites sit up on a hill and back up to the river … both are worth the extra 10 dollars/night. We’ll definitely be coming back the next time we’re in the area.

The location was perfect for exploring the area of Gatlinburg and Dollywood while giving the peaceful nature feel at the end of a busy day. The creek was lovely and the property was well maintained. We will definitely be back again when we come to visit the area.
