Thriving Campground Business with Charming Home in the Smoky Mountains - 1026 Blue Mill Road, Del Rio, TN
This rare property offers both a beautiful home and an established, income-producing campground. Nestled on 1.8 acres along Trail Fork Creek, it blends a Smoky Mountains lifestyle with built-in business potential. The two-bedroom, two-bath home, built in 2008 with 1,729 square feet, features a spacious kitchen with cathedral ceiling and water filtration, French doors, and a screened 6x40 deck overlooking the garden and creek. Additional amenities include a 600-square-foot two-stall workshop, a 10x25 greenhouse, a 10x25 chicken coop with covered run, garden with water and electric, wraparound drive, attached garage, and camera system.
The established Creekside Stayz Campground includes six guest accommodations, each unique:
Del Linnea, a 12x16 glamping tent with private bathhouse;
Happy Camper, a 34-foot camper retreat;
Rio Relaxing, an RV/camper site with hookups;
Rio Rustic, a shaded site with water and electric;
The Spot, a cozy camping site; and
Del Rio Down Under, a studio apartment under the home.
There is also space for two additional RV hookups with water and electric already in place.
The campground offers WiFi throughout and generates extra income from add-on cash sales such as firewood, linens, eggs, showers, tents, and a dump station. Guests return year after year, supported by positive reviews and a strong online presence at www.CreeksideStayz.com. Supplies, website, and marketing materials transfer with the sale.
Located just 25 miles from Hot Springs, NC, Hartford, TN, and Newport shopping, the property provides both seclusion and accessibility. The area's best piazza and calzones and a home-town style restaurant with a convenience center are just two minutes away.
Guests come for rafting, hiking, biking, and the beauty of the Smokies. Owners enjoy privacy at home with guests in their own dedicated area.
