With the fire pit there is fire grill for cooking things from burgers to breakfast. I also supply cast iron pan and cooking utensils. I'll have your first fires wood ready but after that you'll have to gather your own from dead fall in the woods OR if you'd rather, I sell split hardwood on site .Wash sink area uses gravity water brought in from the well (filtered) and stored in 50 gallon drum for doing your own dishes and ask that you use dish washing soap. Trash bins with lids on site for all disposal as marked. Please, don't leave food out in the open, especially over night.

A 900 to 1200 pound animal has a mind of it's own and If spooked a horse could kick. One of our horses is completely blind and wouldn't harm anything on purpose but, just a reminder. Please, don't feed the animals/horses anything without checking with me first. Some horses are so old they don't have teeth (Scarlet is 43) and that is a choking hazard as well as possibly getting your fingers bitten by those who do have teeth.

Neighbors aren't real close but, I do wish to respect them.

I do not discriminate and will do any and all I can to make you feel welcome.

Bring your mountain bike, hiking shoes, hammock and swimsuit for sure. You may want to check the weather so you know what to bring with. You can look us up under the zip code 37391. Spring, Summer and Fall are beautiful here and our little towns always have something going on during holidays and many other days.

I'll do my best to get these dates on the calendar.

#1 WineDrops Creekside Camping
Absolutely lovely
This campsite was lovely. The host went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed. No details were forgotten. We stayed on a cold night, but our crew stayed toasty warm in the hot tent. The bed was comfortable. The outside kitchen area was very convenient. The hammock was relaxing. The land was lovely only minor issue we had was the camp hosts dogs barking in the evening keeping our children awake. Otherwise, 10 out of 10 would recommend!
