Just past the locked barrier gate you and only you will go through. This is a gas grill and picnic table you can use. Garbage should be deposited in garbage cans shown. Main campsite is 400 feet or so down the hill and to left on private road shown.Photo 1 of 6 of Your Private Mountainside Retreat

Nomadic camping
Best for self-contained campers. There are no toilets, showers, or potable water at this Hipcamp.
All to yourself
100% of recent Hipcampers say this Hipcamp felt private.
TN PRIVATE, SINGLE RV SPOT ON 8 ACRES: OFF-THE-GRID single private self-contained RV; (additional tent is OK), primitive camping, not a "camping" subdivision with neighbors within 10 feet, your private mountainside and Hummingbird Valley to enjoy. In Pigeon Forge but ABOVE the city hustle and bustle, adjoins Dollywood so you will at times hear the train whistle and roller coaster excitement (Dollywood hours are not too early or too late); less than 5 minutes to Old Mill, Dollywood, le Conte Center, grocery stores, shopping and many attractions, short drive to Gatlinburg, white water rafting, zip lines, hiking, horseback riding, Smoky Mtn Natl Park Off-the-Grid, - NO water, sewer or electric access to propane grill and picnic table 3 minute walk up the road at barrier gate. Only 1 site on private gravel road on mountainside acreage with no thru traffic; you will unlock/lock gate for entry/exit to your private mountain-side wooded retreat with view of valley through the trees and mountains in the distance. This RV site is on the mountain side not in the valley or mountain top. Access road is blacktop to the barrier gate and then 2 minute drive on a 1 lane gravel road to the campsite (see pictures). There is a 50 foot circular area to turn around so if you are too big to turn around in 50 foot area--you are too big for this site. There is wildlife in the area so be sure food and trash are inside your RV or vehicle. Do not leave food or trash out as that will attract wildlife. Trash should be deposited in the garbage cans in the metal cage by the barrier gate. SO OBVIOUSLY - AS ALWAYS/EVERYWHERE -- DO NOT FEED WILDLIFE; AS THAT CAN ENDANGER YOU AND FUTURE CAMPERS. These are wild animals even if they are within the city limits of Pigeon Forge.There is black top road to the barrier gate which you will unlock to enter your private mountainside. A 2-3 minute drive down a gravel road leads to a circular area on the left with the #1 post and photo cell light that marks your campsite. You will have access to use the gas grill and picnic table at the barrier gate.. The mountainside acreage borders Dollywood. You are minutes from the activity of Pigeon Forge but you will be above it all and have PRIVACY! You will see into the valley below (fire flies in season) and more mountains in the distance. Even though camping site is in the city limits there is the possibility of wildlife in the area so manage your stay accordingly.

    This was a super sweet little spot. Very private and perfect for what we needed, the house was very responsive and helpful

    Camped in a 17 ft pop-up camper with kids, Oct 2026.

    Great spot tucked away in the middle of it all. The site is perfect for anyone wanting seclusion with the option to be in town within minutes. You can faintly hear the roars of Dollywood coasters. It rained every day we were there and the terrain didn't hold water. Big plus. We will return.

    Camped in a 32 ft travel trailer, Aug 2026.

    Recommends

    It was a good spot to park for a week and enjoy the numerous activities in the area. We really liked how it was in a very convenient location just far enough off the main strip that you dont have to deal with to much traffic. If you really wanted to you could easily ride a E scooter or bike to dollywood. Brain's directions were very easy to follow. He was very responsive and friendly. At the end of long hot days walking in the sun it was enjoyable to take a dip in the pool.
