Peaceful Hills Retreat 390 American Way Centerville, TN 37033 (Pleasantville) Looking for the perfect getaway, you will find some peace and quiet here! Only 14.6 miles from I-40 and located on 97 acres, this campground is surrounded by nature, very secluded and private. There is a crystal-clear creek that runs parallel with the driveway and fresh spring water flowing from pipe in the rock close to the entrance on American Way. The creek is bio-diverse, filled with fascinating species, and spring fed, which means it stays cool in the summertime. There are three beautiful homes which are able to be rented out as well. The A-frame log cabin at the top of the hill is called the lodge. The second home, which is a two-story brown log cabin, is where the host lives. The third home is the cottage. Long before these three homes were built, native Indians lived in these beautiful rolling hills and we have found many arrowheads right around the homes on this property. This is a special place and we are happy and honored to share it with you! Peaceful Hills Retreat, a family owned business, started in May of 2017. It all began when Jennifer’s brilliant brother booked a two-story home through Airbnb for Jennifer and the family for a week in the Carolinas. Their Airbnb vacation was a great experience, and she loved having a kitchen to cook in, while traveling with her large family. She gladly said goodbye to tiny hotel rooms. Linda and her daughter, Jennifer realized they desired to run a BnB, and watched the scattered pieces beautifully fall into place. Peaceful Hills Retreat is also a wedding venue. There are three beautiful spots for a lovely outdoor wedding. The waterfall site is a favorite. The lodge is a beautiful place for the reception to take place outdoors and the Honeymoon Cottage makes for the perfect getaway afterwards. At each home you may read a special book called A Soldier’s Child Foundation (ASC). This life-changing, wonderful foundation near Nashville, serves children all over our great nation who have sadly lost a parent who served in our military. ASC tremendously helped Jennifer’s family after the loss of their military soldier and Peaceful Hills Retreat donates a portion of their profits to this amazing non-profit. A Soldier’s Child Foundation removed the shame and sadness from our loss and replaced it with hope, honor. and love. A portion of our increase at Peaceful Hills Retreat goes to serve this cause to help other families. To learn more, to donate or to get involved, please visit: asoldierschild.org. If you have any other questions or if you need anything at all during your stay, please text us and we'll be happy to help. Hope to see you soon!

The place is beautiful and exactly as described. The price is perfect. The directions sent by Jennifer and needed and exact, so follow them. It's a beautiful drive! And I cannot say enough about Jennifer's kindness. I didn't get to meet her but in a personal difficulty she offered words that were a light to my soul.

Looking forward to my next visit!

I really enjoyed my time here, and I will be back again. The site was quiet and a good size for a small group, although I was camping alone. There is a portable toilet a short walk up the hill from the site, and if you bring your own tools you'll have all the firewood you could possibly need. If you don't have tools, the host will deliver bundles of firewood to your site for $10 each. She's very friendly and will respond to messages fairly quickly. I also never had an issue with connectivity at this site. It wasn't full bars, but I didn't miss any messages. There are four iron chairs at the site, and while the solar lights aren't very bright, they are enough to make your way, carefully, after dark. Make sure you look at the pictures. I mistook the size of the fire pit. It was an effective source of warmth, but too small and shallow to really support a grill grate or other campfire cooking medium. Different sites have different types of fire pits and rings, so make sure the site you pick has what you need. I also missed that the tent area is covered with sand. I understand the utility of this, but I would have picked a different site if I had been paying closer attention. This is a sensory discomfort for me and why you'll never find me at the beach. 😅 Not all the sites appeared to be done this way, so again, make sure to check the pictures.

I loved camping here!! Jenn was super accommodating. She sells wood and fresh eggs straight from her farm. She also has a stream and fresh water spring on the property. I drank from it, and haven't gotten sick yet!! 10/10 would recommend.
