Wonderful spot

Site # 6 34ft Airstream Queen bed

Tim was an excellent host, kept us well stocked with firewood and the airstream had everything in it we needed. Beautiful spot for campfires and starlight. This is the perfect spot to stay for visiting the smokes, pigeon forge, Gatlinburg, etc. We were within an hour drive of everything we wanted to do. We even extended our stay by another day. We will be back.

Site # 2 40ft RV Queen bed

This place was perfect. 4 of us fit perfect and had plenty of room around our RV for games and our belongings. Tim was great and responsive. He stopped by a few times to make sure we knew what was available for us on the property and to make sure we were all set. He was very accommodating to our check in and check out process. He even allowed us to take our time leaving because no one was staying after us. We ended up leaving on time but it was very kind he gave us this option. RV was in great condition and was perfect for us. Water spigots in multiple spots and plenty of firewood pre cut for us to use all weekend. Would definitely stay again and will be recommending to anyone we know.

Site # 5 31ft Airstream twin beds

Cool spot that was close to so many things! The camper had everything we needed and was a cozy spot to rest for the weekend. It did smell a bit dingy/musty, but I think that's what you get when staying in an old camper :) It didn't negatively effect our stay and we would definitely stay here again. We enjoyed having the ability to sit by the fire and not stress about gathering/chopping wood. We were able to light the fire, sit back, and enjoy. There is a coffee/book shop within walking distance of the camper that sells amazing coffee and has a huge variety of books/gift items! If you go, ask the owner about the nightmares and nausea t-shirts lol

Site # 6 34ft Airstream Queen bed

Tim is a incredible host who was super flexible, we stayed with 5 pups and he had everything set up for us when we arrived much later than expected, and he did not hesitate to offer us a late checkout, and when we fell in love the home feeling we even decided to stay a extra night! Although it was to hot there was more than enough Firewood supplied. Can't wait to see all his plans come to fruition can't wait to visit again. (Great only 15 minutes to the heart of gatlinburg and 30 from pigeon forge)

This was a great stay in a vintage Airstream! It’s nice and quiet and surrounded by gorgeous trees, and Tim checked on us to be sure we had everything we needed. The camper was very comfortable and includes linens, towels, and basic kitchen supplies and coffee. We loved staying here and would definitely stay again!
