Mark's campsite was perfect.
The little creek, the swimming hole, the quiet, the firewood. All made for a superb campsite.
There's a large work table for cooking and organizing gear if you need to. There's plenty of firewood stacked. The creekside campsite is nice and flat and easy to camp with a tent.
The roads up to the site was scenic and the fire road next to the site was fun.
Mark is a friendly and helpful fellow, he'll talk for hours if you need it and he'll disappear into the night after giving you the rundown if you don't.
I would camp here to relax and we couldn't ask for a better site.

Spacious Campsites & Welcoming Host
This was a great location with a really welcoming host. Mark was very responsive as we planned a trip for a weekend group campout, and checked in during our stay to make sure we had what we needed. He even came down to the road after dark to help late arrivals get to the campsite after dark.
The camp sites are private and spacious. Mark had drinking and washing water supplied, lots of firewood, and a clean outhouse. There are opportunities to do some hiking and some off-roading nearby.
Definitely recommend!

Great camping experience!
We had a great time on Marks land this weekend. The land was well kept, felt secluded and was just a short walk to a large clear creek. Mark was even kind enough to leave us lots of clean drinking water, plenty of firewood, and a clean outhouse. We especially enjoyed a small shop with plenty of snacks, drinks, ice cream, and ice for no up charge. There was also free fast wifi at the shack which was very close to the site.

Mark was an OUTSTANDING host. He went above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect. If you're rollin' through Tennessee, this spot is a MUST see. The land was gorgeous, and remote. I really felt like I was in mountain paradise. In the morning, I waded in the crystal clear creek, and got on my way. Mark and I chatted cordially on the way out, and I'm glad to have his acquaintance. Don't miss out on this one y'all!

Mark was incredibly kind and very reasonable to communicate with whenever we needed anything. The camp sites on his property are new and are still being built up and improved day by day. A great piece of property to have these sites on! We felt it was very private and peaceful since we were the only ones camping at the time(cannot comment on distance between possible sites as it’s just being newly set up.) Mark, the host, was extremely accommodating after a different HipCamp had put us in a real bind and left us without a camp site. The outhouse was nice, well built and dry(no mold, no bugs, no smells) and is a compost toilet. Wi-Fi available down the path. There is one small area currently for hammocks(although more hammock sites may be cleared in the future) that worked well for us. The creek is nearby and across the way is an area where you can take a dip. Plenty of potable well water available to fill our 5gallon water jug. We found it was 2WD accessible but our car is low so it was definitely a bit tricky at times! Public roads leading up to property are a little rough, partially broken pavement and partially dirt. 4WD definitely recommended! The host gave clear directions(definitely want to follow them instead of Google maps.) The farm stand is a real nice touch, too!
