TN pit stop

Got here early early morning, only 1 other slot was taken. Easy to find and park. Great mornings by the water.

Super awesome spot!

Super easy to find in the dark even! I enjoyed our overnight stay here. It was packed, felt super safe and just have a easy night. Recommend if you need just a quick little place to rest your head. Thanks Merriweather!
