Neville Bay, near Tennessee's Land Between the Lakes, is a laid-back spot perfect for those who enjoy a more primitive camping experience. With a focus on nature, this area offers a chance to unwind and connect with the great outdoors.

The sites here are mostly flat and shaded, making them ideal for tents, especially during those hot summer weekends. Campers have noted the cleanliness and maintenance of the area, with one visitor mentioning, “Very clean, well maintained primitive campground.” While there are no electric hookups or drinking water, the freedom to have fires and the presence of picnic tables make it a cozy place to gather with friends or family.

Whether you're fishing, hiking, or just soaking in the scenery, there's plenty to keep you busy. The gravel road leading in adds a bit of adventure, but it’s manageable for most vehicles, even those towing a trailer.

Nice quite primitive camping

Mostly flat near the water and lots of sites to camp. We really enjoyed our spot in the shade on a hot summer weekend.

Neville Bay is A-OK

Ok, that's cheesy but true. Several groups there when we went. Very clean, well maintained primitive campground on the south end of LBL. Four stars, for what it is. If there was electric and water it would be a solid 5. Secluded but still accessible.
