Weekend Trip to Fall Creek Falls Indian Campground

Site 1 was great because it was away from the road and semi secluded away from other sites. I loved the wooden structure for shade and protection from rain. Having a portable potty on site and water from the hose at the Trading post was very convenient too! Being so close to the park was awesome! The man at the Trading Post was very nice and friendly and loaded firewood into the back of my car for me! The only downside to the campground is how close the sites are to each other.

3 nights at Cascades at Waterloo

Tent camping was AWESOME along the creek!! Beautiful dispersed campsites, gorgeous swimming hole and views!! Alice is a great host, very friendly and helpful. We will definitely be going back!!

Weekend Trip to Waterloo Falls

Loved camping on Alice’s property. It was such a beautiful site, our boys enjoyed exploring the river and swimming next to the waterfalls. We stayed over 4th of July weekend, so it was busy with the day visitors, but they do a great job giving the campsite privacy. The campsite is private, it’s easy to find, and Alice was a great host.

Weekend Trip to Greeter Falls Campground

We stayed in yurt #21 during our weekend visit and we loved it. The area was nice and clean including the bathrooms. The only negative would be that the yurts are too close together and if you get some loud neighbors like we did on our last night then it can get annoying 😑 but overall we enjoyed our stay😊

3 nights at Covenant View Camp and Retreat

It was absolutely breathtaking! Robert, the host, was absolutely over-the-top inviting and welcoming to me! So was his wife Tina! Shortly after arriving, they came by to check on me and make sure everything was ok. Shortly, after that, he brought me back plenty of firewood for the weekend! The view will absolutely take your breath away! There is a huge meadow/field in front of you and just beyond that,outstanding views of Lookout Mountain and Covenant College tower, at the very top. Right behind me, where I pitched my tent…there was a wandering creek, maybe 25 feet or so away. During the hottest part of the day, I literally took my camp chair and placed it in the middle of the creek because, the creek was covered with the canopy from the trees. I fell asleep, while reading a book, in my camp chair, in the middle of the creek! No need to worry, though the creek at its deepest point, was only a foot deep. Most of it was only about 3 to 4 inches deep. I also had the awesome experience of a firework show on July 4th and I didn’t even have to leave camp. There is a path that is cut by Robert, that runs from where you put your tent at near the four fire pits. It runs from the tent area across the field, to where the porta potty is. Well, halfway between the fire pit and the porta potty, there’s a huge opening and there was a firework show. I don’t know if it was in town somewhere or, was it a resident doing it, but it was ALL amazing! I saw numerous deer, hawks, and rabbits! GO !!

Weekend Trip to Belle and Beau Acres

The entire property was clean and very well kept. The campsite was great and close to the water. The host was fantastic.

Weekend Trip to Covenant View Camp and Retreat

We enjoyed our brief overnight here. We tried the tire swing and enjoyed relaxing around the fire pit watching the lightning bugs. Our hosts were very communicative and welcomed us on our arrival. The directions to the site were easy to understand. Tent was clean and set up! We shared our toilet/shower area with another family, and it was no problem - all went smoothly and there were no interruptions to our evening or morning. We walked along the path leading around the property. We were just traveling through, but we would recommend this site to others - there’s a lot to do in the area and this site is beautiful!

Weekend Trip to Greeter Falls Campground

A wonderful, clean, and cozy place surrounded by nature. The host was 10/10, very kind in every way. We will definitely return to this place.

3 nights at Belle and Beau Acres

Belle and Beau was an exquisite place with wonderfully private campsites. We loved site number 1! The creeks and waterfall were breathtaking and Christine was amazing and the best host. We killed our battery and Christine and her partner can't to our rescue. We don't have enough space for all the words to express our great weekend camping...

3 nights at Belle and Beau Acres

Such lovely property! Well shaded, very responsive host, maintained and clearly marked campsites, and within driving distance to several state parks. We felt very safe and had plenty of privacy. We will be back!

3 nights at Belle and Beau Acres

What a great campsite! The whole acreage is very clean and well-organized. Christine's communication is amazing and the shady sites are perfect for summer camping. We'll be back again for sure!

2 nights at Fall Creek Falls Indian Campground

I have a great time camping there, is good to have full access to the park with out all the rules to follow, I will recommend to anyone who is looking for the full camping experience, is very clean

2 nights at Waterloo Falls

We absolutely loved our stay at Waterloo! The falls are gorgeous, the campsite was clean and tidy (and right next to the water!), and use of the flush restroom and shower was great. Great vibe, and Alice was so kind! Only hiccup was they were doing yardwork (mowing) from about 8:30am-10am on our first morning there, sometimes really close to our camp site. Totally understand that they need to maintain the landscaping, but it was a bummer to be sipping coffee by the quiet stream and then be interrupted by the loud mower. That was the only thing that kept the experience from being perfect!

1 night at The Falls at Sewanee Creek

We had an amazing stay! We cannot say enough good things about the warm welcome and hospitality we received. Our site was absolutely peaceful and beautiful. Hearing the waterfall at night, mixed with seeing all the fireflies, was magical. We will definitely be back!

3 nights at The Falls at Sewanee Creek

I loved every aspect of the Millers area! We stayed in the eco container but I truly can’t wait to go back and try some of the other unique and one of a kind spaces he built in other areas of their property! We also did the welding class and walked away with a truly special piece of art. 10/10 recommend!!!

2 nights at Belle and Beau Acres

We really enjoyed our stay at belle and beau we stayed two nights unfortunately it rained on our second day there but did not deter us from enjoying our stay right on a brook as we stayed at camp site 2 a little bit of hike up hill on your way out but I am 56 and a little chunky just took a rest as needed. Only animals we saw were frogs and one snake not sure if it was a cotton moth or just water snake either way we was in the water and it avoided us so it’s all good. To make a long story short Christine has a wonderful place and I will definitely be back

Weekend Trip to Waterloo Falls

Alice is a fantastic host! The zen and breathtaking views made us add an additional night to continue enjoying it! We traveled with our two dogs and they couldn’t get enough of the waters and waterfall. We spent more time at the upper falls as it was easier swimming conditions for the pups. Alice was extremely helpful our entire stay and even gave us some insight for some additional views and hikes! The tent is stocked with everything you need. In fact, we brought too many things that were already provided. We can’t wait to come back! Has been one of my most enjoyable Hicamp stays so far!

Magical indoor/outdoor sleeping space optimized for sounds of the waterfall.

1 night at The Falls at Sewanee Creek

The treehouse is very private, the sound of the waterfall was nice to enjoy when sitting on the back porch, you can’t see the waterfall from the treehouse, but you can hike down to it. The AC and shower in the treehouse are great

Weekend Trip to Cascades at Waterloo

We very much enjoyed Creekside 1 campsite. Short hike from the parking area and right next to the creek. Easy access for swimming or fishing. Plenty of room for tents.

3 nights at Fall Creek Falls Indian Campground

I had a great time! Perfect spot for spending nights while exploring fall creek falls. Fairly close to the road/ other campers so bring earplugs if noise is an issue. Everything was as described!

The Falls at Sewanee Creek

11 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents45 acres · Tracy City, TN

45 private acres on our homestead for you to roam. Seven eclectic sites to choose from ranging from primitive camping to a lovely log cabin. All except the log cabin lovingly built by the owner, loaded with creative touches. Featuring: * Two gorgeous waterfalls. Each of our stay-sites are located within about 100-150 yards of Fifty-foot tall Miller’s Falls. * A large cave at the end of a short, but rugged hike. * A fairy Village filled with Hollow Oak Tree Fairy homes. The trees glow after dark. Magical. * Three acres for group camping centered on a well-equipped, covered outdoor kitchen. * Peaceful Meditation Retreats at the Outdoor Kitchen under brain-wave enhancing satellite dishes. * Certified Hypnotherapy Disclaimer: The flow of the waterfall is subject to fluctuations in temperature, seasonal droughts, & rain fall. The most favorable seasons for waterfall flow are fall, winter & early spring. We came to this magical place to found a self-reliant, homesteading eco-community when I retired from corporate life in 2006. It's called the Village on Sewanee Creek, named for the creek 800 feet below the bluff where we are located. I traveled the world as a senior executive for Baskin-Robbins, Dunkin' Donuts, Papa Johns, Blockbuster, 7-Eleven and other retail franchises, making the world safe for Pizza, Ice Cream, Pancakes Video Rentals and American convenience. And I was ready for something more fufilling. I scouted for a place of exquisite natural beauty and I found it here. I bought way too much land just before the real estate bust and learned how to turn a nice fortune into a very small one. I faced challenges and had lots of fun. Now I want to share our experience. It's the Village 2.0 for guests. Or not. Life in the city is OK as long as you can get away frequently. I'm convinced if you love nature and the outdoors, this is the best place to celebrate it.

BBA guests frequently camp with a tent, vehicle, smaller camper, hammock tent, roof top tent, pop-up camper and similar styles. Most photos in this listing are taken onsite. Please keep in mind this is primitive and wild Tennessee landscape that may also contain poisonous plants and wildlife in or around camp. Access to fresh water fun is a short down-hill hike for all guests, with the exception of our hike-in campsites which are positioned alongside the river. Each spot has been strategically selected to provide as much privacy as possible, and comfortably accommodates groups with two vehicles. We provide a rock fire pit and heavy-duty, cast-iron grill grate. You provide everything else, including drinking water and personal toilet waste bags if you plan to use our system. The hike-in sites come with extra seating. Every guest must be included on your reservation, and adult guests may be required to provide identification. Thank you! COMMUNITY COMFORT STATION: There is a comfort station with an outdoor shower stall for hanging your own solar shower bag. The comfort station also includes a changing room which doubles as a private place to use your portable camping toilet. A toilet seat and bucket system is provided but guests will need to use their own waste disposal bags, available at most camping supply stores. The backside of the comfort station has a rain barrel (not potable) collection system for extinguishing fires. OFF-ROAD CONDITIONS: Due to the primitive nature of our location, all reservations should expect hilly terrain and potential bumpy or some muddy road access, especially after heavy rain. We ask all guests to help us minimize impacts by driving with care. Vehicles with low ground clearance or low-profile tires are no longer permitted to use the off-road drive and must park at the entrance. If you want a campsite with the shortest walk from the entrance parking area, you will want to select campsite 5, 9 or 6. When the road is open during unusually wet periods, we recommend AWD or 4WD as a precaution. We are continuously working on improvements for our off-road drive. Belle and Beau Acres is a farm homestead with a personal campground, conveniently located less than five minutes from I40. Expect nothing short of 360 degree views of relaxing nature, privacy, and spontaneous adventure when recreating at this agritourism location.

Elk Head Overlook

4 sites · RVs, Tents8 acres · Pelham, TN

**Please note the address is 9665 SR 50, Pelham, TN 37301** The best part about this site are the views! Relax on the side of the Cumberland Plateau while overlooking Burroughs Cove and the Elk River. You can see the sites from the main road, if you find yourself on a gravel road for more than 50ft, STOP and verify the address. Sites 1/2 are hard graveled, heavy duty tent stakes are recommended along with mats/padding. There is an electrical box at each end of the hard graveled parking and tent areas (Sites 1 and 2) with 20- and 30-amp plugs, plus 110v. If the power is not working, please check the panel and turn on/reset the breakers, many of our guests turn them off when departing. If you are at Site #2 and the steps above do not work, please check/do the same at the Site #1 panel (it is the master power source). Water is NOT available on site. NOTE: Depending on the time of year (warmer months only) a water container with a limited amount of NON-POTABLE water is on site for your use. Please plan on filling your water reservoir(s) PRIOR to arriving. There is an outhouse for all guests, picnic tables and fire rings for Sites 1 and 2. The camping area is fairly close to SR-50 so please expect to hear some road noise, more so in the winter months. The entrance/driveway is on a small incline, if you are traveling in a light vehicle and a heavy camper, it's best to maintain a slow and steady speed to the camp site (for almost everyone, this is not an issue). If you are towing a camper, we recommend the total length of the vehicle and the trailer not exceeding 30ft, longer set ups can (and have been used) without issue. However, there is not a significant place to "turn around" at the sites and novice drivers (not used to backing out of tight spots with long rigs) may find this very challenging. There is a double gate that is usually closed, and latched so it stays closed, it is not "locked". The site is self-serve (not manned), Site #1 is to the left, Site #2 is to the right, and Site #3 is down the path past the outhouse at the bottom of the path. It is recommended that campers set up early for Site 3 (still daylight) to get an idea of the layout. Parking for Site #3 is by the shed at the main entrance and power is not available at the site.

Horse Shoe Bend is a unique campground known for its stunning lake shaped like a horseshoe, a feature that dates back to 1794. This picturesque location, situated just four miles downstream from Great Falls, offers visitors a serene escape into nature. In the 1920s, Horse Shoe Bend was home to the Webb School Camp, which began as a "summer school" near the site of Hi-Lake Camp. This camp was established and managed by Professors W.R. Webb and G.W. Follin from the renowned Webb School in Bell Buckle, Tennessee. Over the first decade, the camp evolved from an educational program into a recreational haven, providing a variety of outdoor activities for its attendees. Around 1918, the camp relocated to the well-known site of Old Bailiff Ferry, where it continued to thrive until its closure in 1939. Today, Horse Shoe Bend remains a cherished destination for those seeking adventure and relaxation, with nearby attractions including natural features, swimming holes, and opportunities for hiking and fishing.

Camping in Fall Creek Falls State Park guide

Overview

About

Splash around one of the highest waterfalls in the eastern United States. Fall Creek Falls, at 256 feet, is one of just seven majestic waterfalls in the park. Walk just a short way from the parking lot to see the main attraction.

Visit Coon Creek Falls, which is adjacent to Fall Creek Falls. It's almost as tall, but it doesn't have nearly as much water. Cane Creek Falls and Rockhouse Falls are quiet, but they offer majestic sights, too. You could spend days here among the rock formations, wooded trails, and hilly countryside.

Swing away at the sprawling 18-hole championship golf course. No two holes parallel each other, so you can see plenty of scenery and even wildlife. The course is highly rated.

Camp at some of the 222 campsites. 92 have full hook-ups, and the rest have electricity. Sixteen rustic campsites offer a backcountry setting. A total of 20 cabins sit on the lakeshore.

Notable campgrounds

Best for RVs: Fall Creek Falls Campground is the main campsite and has plenty of space.
Best for adventurous campers: Virgin Falls has nine primitive campsites reached via a strenuous four-mile hike.
Best for backpackers: Old Corner Campsite is on the Link Trail and positioned for longer hikes or multiple night's on the overnight trail system.

Tips for snagging a campsite

Booking in advance is recommended and can be easily done online and up to one year in advance.
Backcountry camping is permitted at designated campsites only and backpackers are required to use the online reservation system.
Double-check your dates before booking: there is a non-refundable booking fee.

When to go

Fall Creek Falls State Park is open year-round and offers different experiences throughout the year. Peak season runs from April to September (and gets especially busy during fall foliage). Later in the fall season is ideal as the crowds will have gone and the humidity decreased. The waterfalls are at their most powerful in the winter, making this a good time to visit for those who don’t mind a little chill.

Know before you go

Hikers must follow designated trails (marked by blue/white blazes) only, with no off-trail hiking or bush whacking allowed.
Untreated firewood is prohibited. Firewood is available for sale onsite.
Most campgrounds are ADA-accessible. Campers with disabilities may receive discounts at some sites.
You can buy groceries at the camp store in The Village.

Fall Creek Falls Campground

Great for RVs under 38'

Fall Creek Falls Campground

The campground is crowded if you go during peak fall foliage times, but otherwise similar to other state campgrounds. Bathrooms are cleaned daily and the restaurant at the inn is great if you just don't feel like cooking. There are multiple overlooks with scenic views, and the suspension bridge is a must-do but I wouldn't recommend for dogs or kids. The camp store is well stocked so if you forget anything you'll easily find it there.
