Get Lost or Find Yourself. Sway Camping is a private, Off Grid camping experience in Rock Island TN. Situated between Isha Yoga center, Fall Creek Falls, and Rock Island state park, this property is something special. Each campsite offers a private space perfect for getting away, or large enough for family and groups. Pet Friendly property with lots of room to be a part of nature along the beautiful Rocky River. Camp along the river or up in your own private forest. One of the darkets skies around so be ready for some stargazing at night by the fire. This is a property I purchased in 2018 to create a camping experience that reflected the image of camping as a kid. This isn’t a "hotel without walls." This is real camping. No phone signal. No electric wires. Just nature and beauty in a quiet environment. Get lost or find yourself relaxing along the Rocky River. Stay in a hammock, a tent, camper, RV, or one of our cabins. Privacy and freedom is what we are about. Pet friendly camping that should be shared, but please don't tell everyone you know. Only your favorite people.. Then come camp!

Peaceful Getaway
Chris is very fast about communicating and the land is beautiful/peaceful. We stayed in one of the wooded areas and didn’t see another person the whole time. Would definitely recommend.

This place was wonderful!! Chris is an excellent host and was very respectful of our privacy. He also went above and beyond to make sure our pup was comfortable with his pups. His land is just breathtaking with amazing star gazing and so much fun in the creek. We will definitely be back next time we find ourselves in Spencer. Highly recommend this spot!

I think the RV was a bit overpriced because it didn't have electric and it wasn't very clean. We paid $95. Without electricity I'd pay $50 next time. The property itself was beautiful and the owner is a super cool individual. Next time I stay I'll just pay to camp by the river in my own tent.

Sway Forest Private Camp
Beautiful stay!
Absolutely beautiful spot!! Very private! We stayed in the meadow and the view of the stars was unbelievable. It was also a great spot to throw a ball for our dog and get all his energy out first thing in the morning!
