Extra large grassy creekside tent site!
Rio Rustic:
When was the last time you slept under the stars?
Welcome to Rio Rustic, your idyllic escape overlooking a tranquil creek in the heart of the countryside. Nestled between Hartford, TN, and Hot Springs, NC, approx. 70 feet of creekside bliss offers the perfect setting to relax, unwind, and immerse yourself in nature’s soothing embrace. Leave the city hustle behind and experience the tranquility of nature under the stars. There is no cell service in this area.
Your Cozy Creekside Haven
Scenic Creekside Location: Enjoy the serene sounds of flowing water and birdsong as you sip your morning coffee or unwind by the firepit in the evening. Our site is partially shaded, offering a perfect balance of sunlight and cool shade.
Spacious Accommodation: The site comfortably accommodates up to 6 guests. If you need a tent, we offer a 14x9x7 tent for rent to make your stay even more comfortable.
Nature’s Symphony
Wake up to the sweet melodies of birds and perhaps the cheerful crow of a rooster. Keep an eye out for friendly neighbors, including cows, deer, and the majestic Great Blue Heron. As night falls, let the sounds of the night owls and the gentle rustling of leaves lull you to sleep.

About the host
Hosted by Sherry Guyberson

We are Sherry and Jeff, and we hail from Indiana and Michigan, (Michiana), but left that frigid region in search of more comfortable winters. We're happy to say that we've found it here!
We may be a newly established campground, but we're certainly not new to the art of hospitality. Our journey began in 2013 when we worked for some of the leading OTA's, and progressed into managing properties for other owners. We have enjoyed hosting thousands of guests from all over the world.
We mostly like the quiet life, gardening, canning, raising chickens, bees and butterflies are a few things that we enjoy. It's a great way to stay active and commune with nature!

Why they chose this property
We are thrilled to have found this quiet little property in Del Rio on the Trail Fork Creek. Our campground features 4 different camping and glamping experiences, all located along the creek.
We are conveniently situated between Hartford and Hot Springs, (less than 30 min either way), we're the perfect spot for water enthusiasts! There are so many things to do near here, away from the crazy traffic and bustle of the big cities! We are still close enough to all of the attractions offered in Gatlinburg and
