The campsite is praised for its friendly and accommodating hosts who go out of their way to ensure a pleasant stay. Guests appreciate the peacefulness of the location, with easy access to a nearby lake for activities like fishing and boating. The hot outdoor shower and the spacious campsite suitable for RVs and tents are highlighted as major conveniences. However, some reviewers mention the lack of a proper bathroom facility and the presence of a bright light at night.
Summary AI-generated from real reviews
The hosts were very friendly and very accommodating. Going above and beyond to make our stay very wonderful. The location was beautiful and quiet. With a boat ramp not far from the camp site we were able to hit the water as well. Would love to visit again sometime.

We tent camped in the cedars. Just a walk down to the lake. Owners are friendly. Watched deer across the property. Directions were simple. Enjoyed the week.

Lower Cedars Tent or car camping
Excellent hosts, exceptionally accommodating and friendly. It's a great spot off the grid to reset for a few days.

First off we are new to camping and this was a last minute booking. The hosts were very accommodating I was working late and couldn’t arrive till 9 o’clock when I arrived he showed me where the campsite was and even gave us some firewood the next day there was a thunderstorm and he even offered his upstairs if it got bad. Definitely recommend he has a nice outdoor shower with hot water and even gave us some of his eggs

Lower Cedars Tent or car camping
Darryl is very kind. I came here sick and they were really patient and sweet. The shower is awesome. Don’t make the mistake I did and book the incorrect site without power. He still let me get power :) thanks Darryl!

We love camping on Darryel's land! He's a great host and the land is the perfect place if you're hunting or just looking to get in the woods. This was our first time with an rv setup and loved our experience. Would definitely recommend! It's my husbands third time staying here :)

Upper Cedars tent or car camping
Great place to rendezvous with family spread out across the SE states. We parked our 28 ft camper comfortably along the tree line with hookups, and had enough room for 3-4 tents and as many cars. Hosts were super friendly too. The lake access park down the road was amazing. It felt like we had the lake to ourselves for several hours, and on Labor Day Weekend! It is a well kept secret and I hope to camp there again.

Nice place to camp. There's a full kitchen and outdoor shower if you need it. Toilet is a bucket, but that was no big deal. We were also given a little bit of firewood, which was awesome! You drive through the yard to get behind the house to the campsite. The area was very well kept and clean. We were the only ones at the site, so it was also a very private place to stay. Really enjoyed it!

Cedar trees and soft ground
Darryel, the host, was very attentive and he has a nice property. However, there is no bathroom available, only a bucked with a lid. The sites are very close from the house and there is a very bright light on during the whole night, which is not enjoyable. The walk to the river is very short and there is not much to do there. I liked the hot shower in the back yard. Dogs must be on leash almost the whole time due to the host’s livestock around his yard.

The hosts were very welcoming and friendly. Despite some crazy wind we got to enjoy a nice little camp fire before bed and make some smores. It was the first time we have ever taken our four kids and 2 dogs camping and they all thoroughly enjoyed it. The nature and site were absolutely beautiful!

We loved tent camping on the property. We love the location and access to the lake. It’s a beautiful shaded area for camping on a large private piece of property

A beautiful piece of property with a really delightful and hospitable pair of hosts. We loved the hot water outdoor shower and the beautiful outdoor kitchen where we made breakfast and sipped coffee before heading into Nashville for the day. A very comfortable stay!

Such a beautiful property with some of the nicest people ever. The hosts Darryel & Nancy are so hospitable! There’s plenty of land to hunt & woods to roam. Super close to the lake, beautiful views and fishing. Highly recommend!!
