About this property

GLAMPING IN THE SMOKIES--PRIVATE--LAKE ACCESS

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 propane 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 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!

Perfect Weekend Getaway!

Our first experience with Glamping & we were more than satisfied with the experience! Only wish we’d booked a longer stay and got to enjoy more of the camp site but we stayed out on the town shopping more than in and didn’t get to take advantage of everything the camp had to offer! Will definitely be staying again!

Hidden Hideaway

What a nice place tucked away in the woods. The kids spent hours in the lake, while my wife and i spent time hanging out around camp. Definitely a cozy place. Everything we could possibly need was available, was definitely nice to know if we needed something it was no further than a text away!

Get away weekend….it was a nice place to get away that wasn’t far from home. This is a great get away for two or small family. Short walk to the lake and overall you feel secluded.

Perfect Family Getaway!

This “glamping” experience was adorable! The hosts had everything you need to enjoy the woods and the lake. We enjoying just sitting on the porch relaxing and playing games, making S’mores by the campfire, and taking the canoe out on the lake! We are not a camping family, so this was the perfect fit. We never felt uncomfortable (despite 90+ degree days) and enjoyed every moment of our trip! We hope to visit again!

Even in the heat

We had such a great time. It was a hot 3 days but the fans that were there kept the air circulating. We all had a much needed break from everything and the privacy was wonderful. We will try to come back in the fall.

Our family returned for our second time during fall break and had an incredible experience. Hands down this is my favorite VRBO property that I have stayed at. The owner is very responsive and the property is so comfortable and relaxing. We will be back again.

Great little getaway!!

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!!

First-Time Glampers

I’m so glad we chose this place as our first glamping experience. The location was private and peaceful. We were there in July, so it was warm at night, but we loved waking up to cool mornings and having coffee on the deck. We had fans at night to help us stay cool. One of our favorite things was the outdoor shower. The Smoky Mountains were incredibly beautiful. We hiked some of the trails, swam in the river and picnicked along the way. This was a wonderful vacation. We would definitely do it again!
