Lakeside Getaway on Douglas

4 ReviewsAdd Review

Six miles from Dandridge, Lakeside Getaway on Douglas sits along Douglas Lake with direct water access and a boat dock for paddle sports. This private campground accommodates both tent campers and big rigs, though sites currently operate without hookups as the property continues expanding with 40 additional sites under construction.

The lakefront setting provides immediate water access through a dedicated dock and paddle sport launches. A wash house offers toilets and sinks, though showers remain unavailable. Sites accommodate various camping styles, from tent camping to full-size motorhomes, with rental tents and yurts also available on the property.

"Very quiet, secluded and private," notes Jason F., reflecting the atmosphere multiple campers describe. The campground features instant booking capabilities and maintains cell service throughout the property. Firewood is available on-site, and trash service handles cleanup. The location works well as an overnight stop for travelers on Interstate 40, with convenient road access despite the lakeside position.

Nearby options include Sherman Oaks Campground and swann marina for campers exploring different lake access points. Reservations are available for those planning ahead.

Campers regularly cited excellent hosts and peaceful lakefront setting as major draws. The wash house lacks showers currently, but guests frequently mentioned good communication and easy booking process.

Great stopover or getaway

I was passing through on my way north and this was midway. I picked this site because it met my criteria for quick tent camping and has the awesomely easy instant book feature. More of that please!

The hosts were really great and what they’ve done with the campsite and what they are working on is amazing. The views of the lake were amazing. There is a sitting area and a dock with paddle sport launches. There is a wash house with toilet and sink but no showers yet.

I was tent camping. There were tents/yurts for rent. A few other tent campers, a full size RV motorhome and a camper van. There was plenty of room and it was peaceful and quiet.
