The Best Camping Near Baxter, Tennessee

Absolutely loved this campground! It has open acreage as well as timber and water front options. It has a comfort station for an outdoor shower and an emergency #2. Hosts were incredibly nice and the property is gorgeous. Woke up to 2 jakes walking through our campsite below our rooftop tent. Property is back away from any houses and extremely peaceful. Would be an awesome place for a group to camp and still have their own privacy as well. There is a waterfall on the property and a small stream you can wade up through. It was easy to find and just a couple hours from Knoxville and 1 hour from Nashville! 

Private camping at it’s finest

Belle and Beau Acres is the perfect spot for a private getaway. The camp host, Christine, is super friendly and gracious! The property is just a couple miles from
I-75, so is very convenient to get to, but not so close that you hear any road noise. 

You have your choice of sites, either in the heavily wooded timber, in the field, or by the creek. We stayed in the timber and it was glorious! Lots of downed wood to burn, several level sites, lighting bugs for entertainment at night, waking to the sound of birds chirping and even some wild turkeys passing through. 
  
There was another group camping by the creek, so we didn’t go down there and disturb them, but I’m told there are some waterfalls, and pools in the creek to cool off in. You can’t drive directly to the creek, it is a short hike. 

They have a nice little comfort station located by the trailhead to the creek. You will need to bring your own waste bags and shower bag to use it. 

If you like seclusion and privacy, you’ll love this place! 

Beautiful, Private, Primative 

Off the beaten path and quiet piece of Tennessee that we needed.

Peaceful camping 

My site was very spacious and private. It was right by a field and river. The grounds were well kept and the hosts were hospitable and informative. Overall, a quality stay.
