About this property

Happy Camper — Your Cozy Creekside Getaway for Two

Enjoy the beauty of creekside camping without bringing your own camper. Happy Camper is our furnished 32-foot retreat in Del Rio, Tennessee, near Hot Springs, NC, the Appalachian Trail and Smoky Mountain adventures. Spend the day exploring, relax beside your own fire pit, or settle inside for a cozy evening and a movie.

Happy Camper accommodates two overnight guests. The separate bedroom has one queen bed with a 10-inch memory-foam mattress, fresh linens, an electric blanket, quilt and extra blanket. The queen bed is the only sleeping space offered. You'll also have a comfortable living area, electric fireplace, large-screen Smart TV, free Wi-Fi, dining table, books, and ceiling and portable fans.

The kitchen includes a refrigerator/freezer, working LP stovetop, microwave, coffee maker, toaster, hot and cold running water, dishes, silverware, pots, pans and basic cooking supplies. The oven is not currently functional.

Your private shower, sink and vanity are inside the camper, with hot water and fresh towels provided. There is no toilet inside Happy Camper. Guests use the shared campground porta-potty a short walk away.

The electric fireplace warms the living room, kitchen and dining area; the bedroom has an electric blanket and extra bedding. The LP furnace is not available for guest use. Air conditioning is maintained at 75°F. Please keep doors and windows closed while heating or cooling is running and turn the fireplace off when leaving.

The LP water heater uses one switch. Turn it on approximately 20–30 minutes before you need hot water and turn it off when finished. The camper's instruction book identifies the correct switch.

Outside, enjoy your creekside fire pit, grill, picnic table with umbrella, outdoor seating and creek access. Parking is immediately beside the camper, and no four-wheel drive is required.

One pet is welcome with a $15 fee. Pets must be leashed outdoors, cleaned up after and securely crated when left unattended inside the camper.

There is no standard cleaning fee. Before checkout, please return clean kitchenware to its proper place, tidy the coffee maker, sink and floors, and fold blankets. Leave used towels on the vanity and bagged trash in the shower. Turn off the hot water and fireplace, leave the key on the counter and text OUT when departing. There is no need to lock up.

Check-in begins at 3 PM Eastern; please plan to arrive before dark. After-dark arrival requires advance arrangements and a $15 fee. Checkout is 11 AM Eastern. Late checkout may be available by prior arrangement. Send your estimated arrival time and text IN once settled.

Save your directions and campground map before traveling because cell service is very limited. Wi-Fi is included. Quiet hours are 9 PM–9 AM. We are a small rural campground, so other guests and normal country sounds may be nearby. Occasional brief daytime chainsaw noise may be heard while we finish clearing wood from a previously removed tree.

Awesome Father Son Getaway

Great price and location. Jeff and Sherry were very kind and even invited myself and my son to watch them tend to their beehives and gave us a ton of information on the beekeeping process. I will definitely be returning to Creekside Stayz!

Happy Camper

My husband and I spent 4 nights and enjoyed every minute of it. Our amazing host Sherry promptly answered any questions that i had. Checking in and out was a breeze. We would definitely go back to the creekside serenity if ever in the area again.

Creekside treat

I was overall happy with the camper & its site. The gazebo was a bonus. The outhouse through me off. When we arrived, I just couldn’t remember that it was in the description. It would not have stopped me from booking. I have been seeing this site on vrbo for some time & was pleased.

Peaceful Place to Reset.

I truly enjoyed my stay! The RV was very clean and much roomier than I was anticipating. I was looking to get away to a stress free place that I could mentally reset and get some of my computer work done. With the location being an easy drive over to the Smoky Mountain National Park, I was able to do just that. Hike in the morning and relax by the creek in the afternoon. The town of Del Rio is very small and tucked away which makes for ample privacy and a relaxed atmosphere, but still close enough to Newport and Gatlinburg. The RV itself was very clean and comfortable, and the host made sure I had what I needed before I even got there. I would definitely stay here again. Also I recommend the pizza place right down the street. They have really good calzones!
