Cumberland River Campground

Two other travelers and I did about 200 miles on the KAT. After every camping option fell through we came across this place at 6 or 7pm. I believe they were originally closed but opened up for us to have a place to sleep. Having the whole campground to ourselves made it even better. Not only were the hosts amazing. The coyotes howling in the distance made it feel like we were wild camping and not in a established campground.

This is such a gem of a campground. It's not fancy; it doesn't have a bathhouse, cable, or pool. Actually our cell reception was so bad we couldn't get on the internet or get anything on TV off our antenna. But the views, and absolute peace and quiet were so refreshing. It is a very well-kept park, and does have full hookups. We enjoyed our stay immensely and would definitely recommend it if you are looking for a beautiful, serene place to spend a few days. The owners were so nice, and even came to check on us at night to see if we needed firewood or anything else. Definitely don't get that kind of service in a KOA!

We had a awesime tume camping here. Don was always very quick with a reply when i had questions before our arrival, brought us firewood and keeps the property very clean and well kept. We had a site right on the river with a great view. We wnt in November and pretty much had the place to ourselves!!

It is soooooo peaceful. Only one downside to the location (but I was fine with it) bad to no cell signal and no WiFi. If you have kids that are wifi junkies make sure you plan accordingly and bring the DVDs out of storage :)

This was a wonderful get away for the weekend!!! The owner just lives right up the road from the campground. He came around to check on everyone, and he is just a very sweet man. There were many young children for my granddaughter to play with. They had a blast playing at the playground there. The other campers were very friendly and courteous. There is a creek right by the campsites for everyone to fish or go canoeing. It's a really well kept place. Water and electric hook ups. He doesn't charge a lot either. We had a great time!! Will definitely be going back. My granddaughter was sceptical about going because there isn't any Wi-Fi, but she loved it! The owner said he was thinking about putting internet in next year. For those who would like it. It was great weather this weekend for camping too!
