Clinch River Family Campground

My first impression when I arrived was if I could have my belongings from home shipped here I would move in and never leave again just from the sure beauty of the park and river. Highly recommend to everyone so long as you don't require laundry room but if you're looking to feel like you're away from everyone and in the sticks secluded this is the place. I can't say enough about the owners they appear to me to be living there throughout the year in and out enjoying its beauty as well instead of strictly business 9:00 to 5 job. They're very laid back absolutely friendly and very helpful even offered to move my camper for me amongst the park would definitely return if ever in the area again thank you guys.

The owners are nice but the campground is NOT as represented! You can’t really get to the water, the shoreline and steps down are overgrown, the boat launch is muddy and not really a launch. The playground is old and dirty, the camp stops are way too close, the roads are extremely narrow and takes 20 minutes to get there from the main road. The last half of the road is bumpy gravel. I could go on this should be for tent camping only. Needless to say we didn’t enjoy our stay. Permanent campers have big dogs so keep you pets close and leashed. Also the permanent people are a little messy. No real waste dump. Camp at “Natural Tunnel state park”. Look at the website pictures Vs the ones I posted.

Having a peaceful stay! We are familiar with life on the Clinch River and winter levels on it. We watched the level reports several weeks back, and they were off by a lot the entire time. By the time we realized, we were unable to get out Anglers Way to the highway. We were able to move to the highest point in the campground for the duration of the flood. While the surges were happening, everyone here banded together to move all the campers to higher grounds. The owner, Jason, was right there with us moving everyone to safety. Got his truck to help move campers etc as a young man was waiting for his father to return from hours away and couldn't get through. Once the waters receded, Jason was out there repairing electricity and water taps to get us back up and running, despite his own hom

Great spot "away from it all" Down a curvy road but it is manageable. Quiet & peaceful by the river and we had our own lil waterfall (really a drainage pipe? From the mountain across the river, but soothing sound) Brian and his wife were very friendly & accommodating. Great price on firewood!! We'll certainly come back. We stayed there the day it opened for the season and had the whole place to ourselves. 😁😁

Clinch River Family Campground is the perfect blend of peace and proximity. A truly remote spot right on the gorgeous Clinch River, yet only about an hour from Bristol Motor Speedway. We stayed here for the 2024 Night Race and it was exactly what we wanted, friendly owners, beautiful river views, and just enough distance to avoid the race-week madness while still making it there with time to spare. A few minutes up the road are some really cool suspension bridges, plus Natural Tunnel Bridge is close enough for a side trip that’s totally worth it. And whatever you do, don’t miss the Hob Nob Grill, absolutely delicious. If things go my way, I’ll be back in just a couple months for the 2025 Night Race, hopefully snagging the same spot, same view, and the same quiet nights before the engines
