I fully admit this was likely my mistake and don’t want others to make a similar one!!! The tent was fine and as advertised, fan was charged, they supply a lantern and charger which was good. My main warning to others is that the 3 tents are extremely close together so if you have a group of loud drunk ladies nextdoor you will hear everything all night. Similar with the weddings(which we were warned about). So - definitely recommend staying here as long as you don’t expect solitude or quiet, an easy place to find and stay close to Knoxville which seemed safe.

This place was the most perfect little spot! My one note is that it was a little tricky to find, you can only see the GlampKnox sign coming from one direction, and we came from the other direction lol. Far enough out of town that it was so peaceful and beautiful, but a short drive from downtown if you want to explore Knoxville. There were others in another tent but still felt like we had our privacy. Wish we could have stayed more than one night! We’ll definitely be back for a longer stay.

I greatly enjoyed my stay! I met great people during the weekend, read by the firelight, and stayed warm and dry through the night-despite the rains attempts otherwise. I found everything as described so there were no surprises. On Saturdays they often have a wedding (this happened during my stay) but that is clearly detailed in the information so that was no issue. They do a good job of keeping the spaces separate. The view of the mountains and the peacefulness of the location provided me a great exercise in simplicity and presence. Thanks again for everything!

Glad we chose this, what a great stay- we didn’t need much and wanted to relax and that is what we got! Stayed dry in a storm and enjoyed the property. Bobby was very responsive when we had a question. Easy access to all Knoxville has to offer. Bathrooms and shower were super clean.

My only complaint about this stay was the misleading title. They do provide heaters, but you have to bring your own propane or buy theirs for $50. Besides that everything else was great, the tent was super cute and the campground was easy to find.

Wanted more privacy..picture was misleading..you share a very small space with 2 other tents..so there is NO privacy..no mention about the steep and slippery trek to get to the one shower and some free ice...annoyed when vrbo owners nick pick for every thing..glamping..in my opinion should include some firewood..I know how much these owners make up to 90 thousand on one prperty..all the fees are never mentioned in the cost of your stay....by the time you pay the fees..you have doubled the cost of your nights stay..will not be back...ever

It was exactly as advertised. Very simple check-in/out. Host was easy to work with. I will note that the tent was not entirely bug free (a few stink bugs in there), although it seemed to be mosquito-proof. So I wouldn’t book this unless you are comfortable with it having some “real camping” quality to it.

GlampKnox was cute and nice the only issue was there was another tent right beside ours that was not mentioned in the details. We thought it was going to be a nice romantic getaway but ended up being so close the the other tent with a family and a dog that is was kinda hard to enjoy. If I wanted to camp by neighbors I would have stayed at a camp ground. The tent was nice but could have been cleaned better there was a ton of dead bugs and cobwebs all inside the tent.

We didn't stay long. We got there very late minutes before a thunderstorm. The yurt/tent we were in stayed completely dry and it was a relaxing sleep. We stopped at the stables for a shower and the place was gorgeous. We pet the horse that was in her enclosure along the path. Easy directions and a book with any info we needed was left in the tent.

Great get away for camping without the crowd

Great get away for camping without the crowd

Great communication with the host. There was a wedding, which I could hear the music and festivities, but this did not disturb me at all. You are separate enough from the entertainment space that you still have privacy. Once the party ended, it was more quiet than a usual camping ground because there is no one around, and the only light that interrupts the night is your camp fire. It is actually very dark! I thought I'd be nervous but I slept like a baby. I skipped the option for a fan, and I do wish I had gotten it bc it was very warm. But once the sun goes down it cooled off enough to be comfortable. Fire bundle is 100% worth it. Plenty of wood and the starter was enough to get you going quickly. Beds are nice. Space was clean and well kept. Structure and tent feel very sturdy and secure. LOVE the rocking chairs. Will come back for sure!

The property is well kept. The canvas tent is really cool and my dog liked sleeping on the little porch next to the rocking chairs. The owner and staff were friendly and communicative. We had a blast, and would definitely stay again.

Comfortable beds, sturdy tent, gorgeous views. Charger was quick to charge our phones. Location is a short drive away from downtown Knoxville. Available closed-in bathroom was clean and shower had plenty of hot water. Barn cat was very friendly. Only minor inconvenience was the path leading from tent to the nicer bathrooms was quite steep with some sliding stones.

I just stayed the night while passing through the area with my 3 and 8 year old. The cabin/tent was prefect. The bed was comfortable but the view and the stars made our stay absolutely magical! After fees, and firewood, and marshmallows, and propane (for the heater), you might find a cheep hotel for the same price BUT you will never get this experience. Five stars! Highly recommend.
