The campsite offers a mix of experiences. Many visitors found the location convenient, being close to downtown Nashville, but noted the area is somewhat neglected and overgrown. While some campers enjoyed the rustic charm and space, others were put off by the unkempt grounds, noise from nearby events, and the presence of trash. Those seeking a quiet, well-maintained site might find it lacking, but it suits those who prioritize proximity to urban amenities and a laid-back atmosphere.

This "campsite" is situated about a football field away from a big barn that seems to get a lot of people coming in and out. The two roads to the barn run right beside the campsite and had people driving in and out all night. Also, there was some type of stadium or something nearby that had a lot of noise until very late. The grass on the campsite was knee-high with sharp brambles. The owner did offer to cut it because he could see we was very dissatisfied. It was late though and we needed to set up so we declined. The site is not very flat and has piles of wood chips all over the site. We could not have an outdoor fire due to concerns of starting a fire with the wood chips that were piled all around. No fire ring at all. Property was full of trash and we saw a few abandoned tents just laying around. We wouldn't have stayed except it was getting late and we needed to set up. The owners seem to be nice, but the listing is just too inaccurate for me to give it a positive review.

My friends and I camped here for 2 nights and have mixed feelings. As of 10/26 the pictures on the listing aren’t accurate. Everything is pretty overgrown and there are no pretty domes with string lights. We could hear a large party and pretty loud music both nights but we didn’t mind it. The camping area is a lot smaller than the pictures. I didn’t think to take pictures of just the site but I’ll attach what I do have. Luckily there were 3 porta potties that were very well kept! Getting to the camping area was a little hard the first time but it’s fine once you know where you’re going. The host was nice during or short conversation on how to get to the camping area. Overall it’s not a bad place to camp but it’s definitely a little pricey and not like the pictures.

Really beautiful forest! It was really rainy when we arrived so we parked where we felt comfortable (not down the big hill) and Chris was totally accommodating. Great option!
Overall great experience. Plenty of options as to where you camp on Charlie’s property. We chose to camp between the gates where cows were present, which was great. Need 4X4 to access the lower area if rain is in the forecast.
We've stayed here several times, and love it - is a sprawling, ramshackle farm that is a great place to spend the night camping with our trailer with our dogs. There's one or two campsites with electric and water hookups (that you may or may not be able to find)
The land is somewhat unimproved with lots of mud and ruts and junk and holes (be careful). There are cars and campers strewn about.
The pigs are very friendly 😁
We saw a family of bobcats crossing Eatons Creek road out front.
It's SO close to downtown and the development is encroaching closer and closer - we hope it will stay wild and undeveloped forever.

Such a beautiful, spacious spot with incredible open views and trails — and only 10 minutes from downtown! It’s not a paved pad, so setup took a bit more effort, and we couldn’t dump our tanks, but the provided porta-potty and dumpster were super helpful. Overall, a fantastic stay.

Charlie was a great host and was very accommodating!
Charlie and the farm continue to reflect great charm and wild comfort close to Nashville. We cannot believe our good fortune finding and returning to this property. It is both beautuful rustic and hospitable at the same time. It was a hot stretch in August and the tent caught an appreciated breeze in a little glade down the hill. We also used the small cabin briefly and it's nice to have dinner and socialize there or by the fire pit. We will be back again and again to this wonderful spot.
Keep expectations low to avoid disappointment, it is what it is. It’s more akin to a child’s fort than a cabin. We opted to pitch our tent beside the “tiny cabin”, the vibe of the property was general disarray, lots of unfinished or abandoned projects. I was confused as to why there was a cleaning fee, the tiny cabin appeared to have never been cleaned. It had a post apocalyptic esthetic, the sad part is the land clearly has a lot of potential. It was pricey for what it was my total after taxes and fees was over $70, just not worth it.

The place is litttered with junk but there is a Sani can, water & electricity Didn’t meet the host
The road in is a bit rough but doable for a rav 4 + teardrop trailer
This is a great little spot to stay! It feels like you're way out in the country, but it's so close to downtown Nashville. Rustic, charming and semi-private with room to roam and a fire pit. Cody (resident dog) greeted us, just as he did a year ago. There's friendly goats, pigs and other animals on site. I've stayed twice now, nearly a year apart and will certainly stay again if it's available next time I'm in the area and need a spot. Communication with host was great and he was very accommodating. Highly recommend!
The directions said to park by the geodesic dome - there are 2. I headed into the site by the one with the lit electric supply (very nice and new) and my camper wheel fell into a giant gopher hole. It bent one of my stabilizer jacks which drove into the ground and was totally stuck. I called the number I found on Google and a very nice man came and pulled it out with his tractor. I would not stay here unless they gravel/pave the area or you enjoy offroading. I paid a lot for this site and it was stressful and will cost me more in repairs.

Site B has a new electrical service with 20, 30 or 50a outlets and a nice new dusk to dawn lamp to make arriving after dark a breeze.
2nd time staying and will plan to book again.

Plenty of space on Charlie’s property. Would love to come back next time I’m stopping in Nashville!
Overall the secluded part was pretty accurate, and it was a beautiful piece of land, but I feel like something has gone wrong. So much is in disarray, hardly any signage, abandoned vehicles, completely overgrown and neglected gardens. I hope everything is okay.

Charlie was so cool. He checked on me daily and offered me coffee in the morning! The property is so quiet and beautiful with the hills and mountains. Close proximity to Smashville.
We had the entire grounds to ourselves! We biked around the stage and such and had a beautiful sunset view at site B. Charlie is super ‘lax and we were able to come and go as we pleased. He came and turned the electric on when he saw us set up camp and reminded us of the running water spout and then gave us our space. The portapotty was SO clean and I’m the type to rather go in the woods than a stinky bathroom but I had no problem here. We slept to the sounds of the birds and insects and loved every second of it. Never judge a book by its cover OR negative reviews..if OG calm camping is what you want then Charlie definitely gives that experience! :)
Charlie was helpful guiding us to camping spots. We ran into a few people that also found him supportive. One couple had been camping and listening to music at the farm for years.

Location was convenient to downtown Nashville. Property was nice and quiet from road noise, the roosters were first to wake us up in the morning which was awesome. However the farm had lots of empty campers, vehicles, scrap metal/prior structures. We were only able to find Site B which did have electric and a water pump with potable water. There is also ongoing construction at the top of the hill and next to site B an area that looks like it was recently excavated. Overall it suited our two night stay near Nashville but we did not spend much time at camp because of the shape the property was in. For the price I would of hoped the current status of the farm was disclosed as it does not currently look like any of the pictures advertised.
Didn't have the ammenities that were listed, campsites weren't mowed nor did they have an area for safe private camp fires and only one portapotty at the top of the hill.

The pictures and ad were very Misleading. Site compares more to a landfill than a farmland. No communication with host, grass overgrown everywhere, not vehicle friendly, and overran with ticks

We enjoyed our stay here, but there were a few hiccups. For the cost we definitely expected water and electric hookup. I am new to this site and camping for that matter so I think I misread the listing. When we arrived we were confused about where to park and nobody was easily able to help us. Once all was settled we enjoyed our overnight stay. It is a very pretty and secluded site that we easily got an Uber into Nashville for a fun evening.
It would have been a really great place however, when I pulled in it looked like a big dirt pile and the road I thought was where the campsites may be looked like a steeper dirt road that I couldn’t pull my little trailer in. There was no map or signs and I only saw one place I could camp but it wasn’t really a camp site just a dirt patch. I messaged the owner to see if I got the site wrong and didn’t hear. Once I already set up he showed up and pointed where I could have camped but it was too late at that point. And we had already set up. If there was better directions and a map to where the actual nice site was it would have been a completely different experience and for the price and having a not very nice spot, it wasn’t worth it and disappointing to say the least. The road to where the actual sites were weren’t marked and looked like a neighbors private drive.
Loved that this was easy to pull in, park and sleep for the night. Just what we needed to add a break into our travels. Went and checked out Nashville the next day!

Great location close to Nashville. Despite the proximity to the city, the location was nice and quiet. It was easy to find the place, though we struggled a little when navigating the property itself. However, we did arrive after sunset, so perhaps the darkness was partially to blame for our trouble finding signage.

Charlie has been a great host! We had a mechanical issue with our RV and sent one of the guys he has working at a construction project on the site to see if he could help us get it fixed. The setting is beautiful and is less than a 20 minute drive to downtown Nashville. It may have been our dogs who got the most out of this location. The off-leash opportunity has allowed them to sniff and explore everywhere! The camping area is a bit rugged but it has been a great experience for us.

Super relaxed camping, came in for 2 nights in a 25ft RV. More than enough room at the sites, we were the only ones here at the site time. 20-30 dollar Ubers to downtown depending on the time of day. Would recommend to anyone trying to avoid the crowded downtown area
