Not there

Used 1 star to get folks' attention. If this site does exist around there, it's not at the listed coordinates- nor is any camping site that I could find or hear of from the locals who explained that the site I did find near the coordinates (that didn't look like the previous reviews pictures too well but was at the coordinates) was actually private property. And given that it was late and there really weren't many other places around, I highly recommend going very early and not around the area indicated by the coordinates.

Holston River Bank

My wife and I decided to do an overnight float trip on the Holston River with one of our good friends. The river was absolutely rolling with 2 generators running for the entire week so the islands we normally try to stay on were few and far between so we had to camp on the bank in our hammocks. This is an absolute blast of a trip and if you want world class small mouth fishing, look no further! Try to hit it when they are rolling 0 or 1 generators only and the fishing will blow your mind; you’re welcome!!!!! This trip can be done with tents just as easy if not easier than hammocks if you prefer to pack in your tent camping gear. We chose hammocks for space saving reasons only.
