We loved our stay here! Casey was there to greet us as soon as we got there and was so kind. The area is absolutely beautiful and so peaceful. Very easy to park. We would definitely visit again! Thank you so much!

Diane and Casey were so welcoming. We were late on finding a spot for the night and they responded quickly and so gracious. It was great to meet them and their granddaughter. They were just what we needed after a long day on the road. Thank you again. Great people!!

Casey has been a wonderful host. Our kids played in the small bushes around the house and we felt home during our short stay. Thanks for everything !

Casey and his wife were so kind and helpful in getting us set up. Quiet neighborhood and literally across the street from Farragut State Park.

What a nice place to stay, smallish, yet perfect parking, shaded by a green tree canopy. What my dawg and i liked best was access to hiking in the forest right from the driveway. Leading all the way to the lake, or up into high vista views also. there is a superstore just a few miles away that includes grocery, hot preped food, even tap beer you can take back to camp in a griwler, also hardware encase you need to fix stuff. The host’s are very kind indeed, as well as kind to offer their space. thank u for a wonderful camping experience
