Situated on 40 beautiful acres with nearly 1800 ft of frontage to the Little River and situated at the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains.

The property provides a tranquil atmosphere, perfect for relaxation and making memories with family. The owners, Cleve and Sheila Messer, have a deep connection to the area, having lived in East Tennessee their entire lives and raised their family near Cumberland Gap National Park. They aim to create a legacy that will be passed down through generations. The campground offers full hookups, and all sites have 30/50 amp service. Visitors can enjoy the peace and serenity of the small town, explore local festivals, and take in the natural beauty of the surrounding area.
