About this property

**GLAMPING IN THE SMOKIES**PRIVATE**LAKE**

CAMP WHITETAIL is a one-of-a-kind amazing glamping experience! It is a 2 bedroom, 330 sq ft tree-tent that is superbly COZY, nestled on a private 5-acre wooded site! It is camping with modern conveniences and without having to pack up the house.

Inside you will find a comfy custom-made Queen bed and Twin bunk beds, custom made table for two, a kitchen with running water and a stove, stocked with the basic necessities. (Note; if the weather is going to drop below freezing at night water will not be turned on during spring or late fall due to pipes and water heater freezing up.)All you'll need to bring is your food and a cooler. The outside covered porch/deck has rocking chairs to take in the peaceful views while sipping coffee in the mornings or just enjoy a quiet evening under the stars. An enclosed outdoor bathroom is just right outside the tent, with hot shower and a toilet loo. The logs by the fire pit, with plenty of firewood, invite you to sit and tell campfire stories and roast marshmallows while creating new memories. The trail then leads to the water, where you can enjoy a trip on the canoe and paddle board (provided for you), lay in the hammock or fish in the clear waters of Douglas Lake.

You can cook in the tent on the gas stove, the outdoor grill or cook on the open fire in the fire pit, sit by the handmade camp logs and enjoy your meal at the fireside.

The red path from the parking area and between the tree-tent and the bathhouse is well lit all the way with solar lights, you can also turn on the porch lights and light up the woods. There are charging outlets 120V/USB for cell phone/laptops. There are only electric blankets. Check lake levels at Douglas Lake water levels as the lake are lowered during the winter starting in September to about March. http://www.douglaslake.info/Level/


This glamping experience will be an unforgettable one for years to come.

Come and enjoy the great outdoors!

Above and beyond! Glamping at its finest!
Absolutely the BEST Glamping experience one could ask for! High quality tent, beautiful site, clean and perfectly decorated. Truly, all you need is a backpack of clothes and a few groceries! Host Adrian has thought of it all! Hot shower, gas stove, bbq grill, firewood, kayak, lanterns, fridge and cooler, amazing fire pit, pots/pans, etc!! Adrian is kind, extremely knowledgeable and such an amazing host!! Communication is perfect and his property is spotless! A great deal of time, money, energy and love has gone into his camp! We are so lucky to have found him! Looking forward to our next visit!!

Glamping in the woods
Overall we had a great time. The property was very clean and well cared for. The owner was very communicative. One down side was the beds were not super comfortable, but we were able to make due for the short weekend. Also, the outdoor patio furniture was not comfortable to sit in for any extended time. Lounge chairs would have been amazing. Otherwise, this is an awesome property and we had a great time!!

We absolutely loved this location, just wage we would’ve booked a few weeks earlier because the lake had been drained and that was one of the main reasons that we picked this location! We will be back!!

We had an amazing time camping. Loved the setup here. We were in a secluded area. Everything you need is here. Enjoyed listening to nature here. We heard an owl in the early morning. This is a place to relax and relieve stress. Wish I could have stayed longer. My hubby and I had a wonderful time. We also loved going to the Bush beans restaurant and museum on our way to the camp site that is close by. You cannot go wrong camping here. The place is nice lit up at night with lights around the porch of the tent and solar lights up the pathway. I cannot say enough about this site except I wish it was in my backyard.

Perfection
Took my bestie for her 50th to just get away and was perfect for just that. We were bummed lake already down. Make sure to bring plenty of ice. Takes about 15 mins 1 way to get more. Also bring chairs for around the fire. The benches are cool but not comfy. It truly was a perfect and the host was super responsive. We already looking to come back. Thanks!

Good location. Just far enough away from Sevierville to be away from the masses of people that stay in town. Very secure property. The bathroom/ outhouse is actually very clean. And the shower system works very well. I do recommend this property for future stays.

Just what our family needed.
We had so much fun. The property owner thought of everything to make our stay perfect. Very relaxing. The outdoor shower was very clean and relaxing as it looked out into the woods. My kids loves the lake and fishing out of the canoe. They even left a water and food bowl for your dogs. I recommend brining your own chair to sit around the fire. The ones there aren’t that comfortable. They have hammocks at the tent and lake area. Definitely will be back in the fall. Property owner was very responsive and tent was super easy to find. Beds are comfortable and everything is extremely clean. Bug spray and citronella candles are provided along with sticks for roasting marshmallows and hotdogs. I also was able to use a hair dryer with the electric there. The tent is so pretty at night lit up. We came back a few times at night in the dark. Recommend a small flashlight to walk down the path to the tent. Which we had so it was great. Charcoal is provided along with propane tanks for cooking. Everything is provided to start a fire. Such a great getaway. Definitely will be back in the fall.

A cozy tent with the amenities of a hotel
The campsite is nestled deep in the woods and very private. You feel far from civilization without necessarily being that remote. It comes with every extra you could think of: including a couple hammocks and a canoe! The tent has all the amenities of a hotel but with the cozy, rustic feel of roughing it in the woods. Even the loo & shower is high class. Once you take a shower with nature right there you won’t want to bathe any other way! Adrian is the host with the most, I stayed for 4 nights and 5 days and he was attentive to every question and concern I had ( no matter how trivial ) I highly, I mean HIGHLY recommend booking a stay at this wonderful glamping spot. I think it’s worth noting that everything was very neat, clean and smelled fresh. The custom bed was way better than I have at home and he supplies whatever you could possibly need for cooking, grilling and such. I will definitely be returning next year.
