Super cute hidden 💎! Friendly staff and very welcoming. Told us of the close waterfalls to kayak to and exactly where to go. We stayed during the week and was the only ones there. Peaceful and quietRestrooms: Cleanest bathrooms!! And even air conditioning. Lol

The perfect place for a weekend getaway with friends! Camping amenities were wonderful and the managers are helpful with whatever you need. Also I recommend renting one of their kayaks and checking out the falls nearby!

The hosts are very generous and friendly. Camp sites are maintained nicely. It's right on the water with amazing views. Kayak rentals available. Super awesome waterfall about a mile by water from the campground.

Not only did I get to glamp in the dreamy tent, but Horseshoe Bend Marina also offers Campsite Crudité service to your site! Since we were only there for one night, and truly needed some downtime we chose not to cook and to select-in to the crudité option + wine and home-made breakfast burritos to warm on the fire for the morning.One night is not enough btw, staying a couple of nights would be ideal so you have time to fully unwind, grab some time on the rental kayaks and enjoy the stars that we rarely get to see in the city.All of our interactions were socially distanced, masks are worn indoors, and the bathroom spaces were kept very clean for camper safety.Thanks for having us Horse Shoe Bend Marina!

Love it here. Pretty quiet, right next to the water. Beautiful scenery and the staff is very pleasant! We brought lights and small comforts for our stay in one of their pre built tent sites. Overall great experience. Bathrooms could using frequent cleaning however that is to be expected during busy season. Update: the pontoon for rent is a bit janky so dont go very far. The zippers on the prebuilt tent were broke causing our dog to get out i picked her up from the store and later found out they charged me $45 because she got out without saying anything before hand i had to ask about this mysterious charge and they said they had to charge a pet fee because she got out! So watch your pets and your debit/ credit card!

The Hosts Kelli and Jammy are incredibly wonderful honest helpful happy people. I highly recommend visiting this beautiful scenic Marina & Campground in Middle TN. Get connected and be sure to enjoy regular live entertainment and other events, too.

If you are looking for a quiet place to relax and get away....this is an excellent spot! We actually rented a privately owned houseboat that is docked at this marina for the weekend. The marina staff were so friendly and helpful. It is so peaceful and quiet that it's the perfect place to relax. You can rent kayaks at the marina and see a few waterfalls along the river! It's also very close to awesome sights such as Twin Falls and Cumberland Caverns. We enjoyed our stay very much!

I cannot say enough about this place. I absolutely love it. It feels like coming home. Bari and Alex (the managers) are truly two of the kindest, most helpful people I’ve ever met. The setting is beautiful, the glamping tents are SO CUTE, and everything is so well run. It’s great for a get away weekend or a full yoga retreat. ✨

This place was so much fun! My friends and I shared a glamping tent while in town to see a show at Cumberland caverns. The drive to the concert was about 30 minutes, very scenic. The tent provided was great! The tents were super clean with very comfortable bedding. The camp managers Alex and Bari are awesome! Can't wait to come back!

This place is absolutely amazing. We rented kayaks for the day and with Jackie's help found the most amazing waterfall. We came back for lunch and the pizza was delicious! They had some special seasoning 😋. We've had such a hard time with cell service since coming out here on vacation but the Marina wifi was awesome! 10/10 would recommend

It's a cool location but the sites are very close together, shared water. The bathroom is prison style with 2 open toilets but there is a heater and you can lock others out. The website is misleading about the hours of the marina but it was the only campsite with availability when we were in the area.

We came in and was able to get a tent spot with no problems. It’s was very quite and right on the water. We are planning on going back this weekend.

This place is awesome. Quiet and quant. The people who run it are very genuine people. They have a nice swimming area with a couple nice spots to jump from and a swimming dock. I took my daughter camping all weekend for the first time ever! She had such a great time she didnt want to leave. With the waterslide, the swimming and making new friends she would live at the campground if she could... We didnt have cell service so the family really came together with no phones. This is a very nice campground. Very well upkept and shady.

Management here are AMAZING!!! They have been EXTREMELY Helpful & Generous to my husband and I especially during this difficult time of losing everything due to this Pandemic, wasn't for my bff sister Michelle & husband Stu we would be homeless and if not for my Favorite Cousin Chas and our children we would not have food or heat. So THANK YOU TO YOU ALL!!!! Thank you Horseshoe bend for allowing us to make this our New Home...

Horseshoe Bend is the best place for families to camp... Hands down! We had super large group, and the management was MORE than accommodating! Awesome time, great people, beautiful scenery, and just an awesome experience overall! We've camped there for YEARS, and will continually return!!!

My wife and I have camped a lot of places in the past two years.This is by far the best place we have been.Very private lots and we were beside the river. Super fast wifi,delivery service,a live band played on Saturday night.The people operating this place was very friendly.We will definitely go back because we love Tennessee hospitality!

Incredibly nice and hospitable management. Great location. The Campsite itself is well maintained and offers power (bring long extension cords!), water, and a clean bathhouse... all right on the water. Will definitely be coming back!

Thanks for a great labor day weekend!!. You guys made it possible for my family to have a great weekend. Thanks for all the time and dedication that it took to have the food truck, shaved ice, music and the grandkids favorite THE WATER SLIDE. We love camping there and already looking forward to next year.

My wife and I went Glamping for our anniversary here at Horseshoe bend, we absolutely loved it because you get to camp without all the work and sleep on comfortable bed at the end of a fun day. Horshoe bend has a great waterfall that is kinda hidden nearby that is breathtaking! The owners our friendly and family oriented which gives the place a great feel! We will definitely be back!

Management was a very hateful lady. When you deal with public and guests the last thing you need to do is be very hateful and rude to them but this women didnt care she was exceptionally rude and hateful. To me camping is a family experience most times yet they only want you to use 2 tents with 5 people on one campsite. Well if your married and have 4 kids then your out cause your gonna have to pay double or triple for more campsites just for your kids that's not guaranteed to be next to each other. Was just very disappointed with this place

Camp sites were gravel and relatively level. Water and electric at the site. Quiet family oriented. The road to the campground is steep, narrow and bumpy. Staff were helpful and friendly.

Let me start out by saying that the people who run this place could not have been nicer. When we arrived they welcomed us like we were family that they haven't seen in a while. I really cannot remember having such a welcoming feeling arriving at a camp ground. When we saw our actual campsite we were quite pleased. It was spacious and we did not feel crammed into a little space. With 3 tents we were able to set ours up away from the kids which is always nice. The area is beautiful just don't spend too much time on the road looking at the scenery because evidently no one who drives on that road understands the concept of driving on the right side of the road. I had at least 3 separate times where someone was driving on my side of the road at a high rate of speed. After we checked in were informed that there would be a concert the first night of our visit. The stage was 20 yards in front of our camp site. It started at 8 and ended somewhere around 11:15. Then while the clean up happened we got to listen to "ronnie". Ronnie decided that everyone needed to listen to him make animal calls till 12:30. This finally stopped after I broke and yelled at this ass hat to shut the hell up. Once the "band" finally left we thought we could finally get to sleep. Wrong!!!! There is a nice house being built on the property and evidently there is a small dog that decided to bark for about 40 minutes and get the other dogs on the property barking as well. Once this was over. We were able to get about an hour and a half of sleep until the property owners rooster, thats right I said ROOSTER, decided that that was enough of that. I will say that things were quiet the second night but our rooster friend still was insistent that sleeping in past 6 was NOT allowed.The only other issue is with the bathroom. If you have ever been to prison then I would think you might not mind it, one toilet has no walls the other has no door. Both showers are falling apart and have no curtains. Also toilet paper does not come with your campsite rental fee either. You would be better using the woods since the latrine constantly has at least an inch of brown "water?" for you to walk thru. "please God in heaven let that be mud". We eventually drove over to rock island state park and clandestinely used their showers.In all seriousness, none of the issues that I have mentioned are things that cannot be fixed. First just clean up a little, just a couple hundred dollars and those bathrooms could be just fine. Next kill that rooster, ( I will gladly help) and if you are planning on having a concert please disclose that to those that book for that night. Those things combined with the wonderfully friendly people that run this place would make this a top notch campground for someone wanting to visit this beautiful area!
