My partner and I spent two peaceful nights at this private and magical site. The creek was only a few feet from our tent site which made for excellent sleeping. The platform for our tent kept us warm and dry. We awoke to a beautiful view and id'ed many birds. The field allowed us to practice with our boomerangs too! The hosts were warm and down to earth and I would recommend this site to all!

I've stayed at Jake's Farm before and the camp sites are beautiful and private. Always feel safe and Jake's has everything you need.

This is a nice bare bones stay for cheap. The site is roomy, but not quite as private as advertised. We could see and hear campers on either side of us — which didn’t bother us, but I feel is worth noting. Pretty farm. Has a number of long-term renters living out of RVs — everyone we interacted with was very nice. Bathroom and shower are pretty run down and dirty/rusty. But I was happy to have a shower available. I would recommend staying here if you are not afraid to rough it a little.

All of the people were nice, but the vibe was off. We liked the idea of this place but upon arrival, we realized that while there are only a few sites available on Hipcamp, there are a lot of folks who live here full time. It wasn’t a bad experience, it just wasn’t what was described. It sort of felt like a trailer park.

I arrived and was given a full introduction to the campgrounds when I arrived. which is always helpful in a bigger place! Bathroom/shower were clean and campsite had a space for a fire and charcoal ready at the picnic table. You are able to drive-up to your site as well. I would stay again :-)

This was a great place to camp. It is surrounded by farms. Campsite 4 was great because it was quiet and next to a river. If you take your dog make sure they are friendly. There are a few dogs that roam the property. They are nice but if you have an aggressive dog it may be an issue. There were a few other oddities, like someone pulled down into a field near our campsite and slept in their car. They were gone by morning but a little odd. Also, there seem to be others maybe living in various campers on the property. However it felt safe. Chris is super nice! Great guy from what I can tell.

We enjoyed our stay! It was nice to have our own little spot, and the sound of the creek was very relaxing at night. My wife especially loved the sweet dogs on site.

We had a great stay at Jake’s farm! The site was exactly as pictured, and everything matched our expectations. Jake/Chris was a welcoming host and very quick to respond to any questions. One of the highlights was seeing so many fireflies at night—it made the experience feel truly magical. Would definitely recommend!

It was a good place to stay in good weather. The people were nice, we had wifi inside of our tent, the site was mostly quiet and private, and there were lots of very friendly dogs. They have a full kitchen and laundry facilities, all free for guests. The view was AMAZING, and we saw SO MANY fireflies every night. We could hear frogs all night long, and my kids and I thought it was really funny when they jumped away from us into the stream.
Unfortunately, it rained every afternoon/evening, and our site flooded with about 6 inches of water directly under our tent. I believe this is normal weather during the summer months. After one hour-long downpour, walking on the tent floor was like walking on a waterbed, and our bedding was soaked. Our tent was in a huge, deep puddle covering most of the area behind the picnic table and fire ring that didn't dry out until the next day. We had to move the tent way back and put our bedding in the (free) dryer. The whole road in and out was also VERY muddy for all except the very last day of our trip (the only day it didn't rain). Walking to the bathroom and driving through it was quite difficult. We've camped in rain several times before but never experienced the amount of flooding and mud that we experienced here.
I would come back if the weather was clear, but would choose a different spot if there was any rain in the forecast.

This was our first ever stay at a Hipcamp, and it was pretty cool. We stayed on site 4 with electric as we had our little 13’ canned ham. Plenty room for it. Favorite features of the camp were being right next to the Beaverdam creek with the beautiful rippling water sounds, and the unique shower house!

Beautiful space, lovely views and enjoyed the peaceful camping. Not necessarily the most tidy communal spaces, but if you want an authentic farm experience, this place is awesome. Recommended :)

very peaceful and beautiful hideaway. we'd definitely stay again. had fun walking around by the fields and stream, and napping in the hammock. the generous checkin and checkout times allow plenty of time for relaxing even if you only book one night. also really close to ashville, even though the farm is in a rural and secluded area, you can easily have the best of both worlds :)

Excellent location. Chris is so incredibly helpful. Site number 4 was exactly as described, and the view couldn't be more exquisite. The 4 farm dogs visited us a few different times which my family couldn't have enjoyed more. With Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg 2 hours away they're still a reasonable distance to make day trips.
The amenities are close enough to your site that you can easily walk to them all. The outdoor bathroom with shower was a super fun touch. Chris has firewood for you to use which is easier to load into a vehicle and drive back to site. The view of the mountain combined with fireflies and the sound of the creek at night? Literal perfection. We'll be recommending this site to anyone inquiring, as well as hoping to return. It rained a bit while we were there and the site didn't flood by any means. Its slightly sloped which is a campers dream for runoff.

The area was beautiful, and the host was very kind to show us where our campsite was located. A short walk from the site was a beautiful creek. We would definitely come back.
