Defender's Retreat at Silver Point is a private campground just over an hour from Nashville directly off I-40. The expansive 259-acre property has a pavilion and the use of two private bathrooms. There are 12 individual sites on the property.

Campers are within minutes of amazing hiking at Cummins Falls State Park and Burgess Falls Natural Area. We are also ideally located close to wineries, distilleries, and lots of wildlife. An outdoor concert stage is coming soon for weekend concerts on the property.

Our campground is just a 5-minute drive to Center Hill Lake and Hurricane Marina where you can rent pontoon boats. We're also just a 12-minute drive from Edgar Evins State Park where you'll find 3 boat launches on Center Hill Lake and 11 miles of hiking trails. Nearby outfitter Canoe the Caney offers kayak and canoe rentals and is a Trip Advisor Travelers Choice Award Winner.

The site also comes with a picnic table, fire pit, and Adirondack chairs where you can kick back and take in the stars at night. Our campsite is also pet-friendly with a small pet fee.

There is a camping potty at your campsite for convenience. Campers will also be able to access two full bathrooms with showers at the Pavilion in front of the farm. However, the camping potty is convenient if you need to use the restroom in the middle of the night.

This is an exclusive campsite. The host partners with land owners to offer unique accommodations in beautiful outdoor spaces. Our campsites are off-the-grid which means they generally do not have access to electricity, wifi, or modern plumbing. Instead, they offer the chance to relax, unplug, and fully experience nature!

Your campsite includes a 10'x12' (120 square feet) safari-style canvas tent on a raised wooden platform. Inside the tent you'll find one queen bed with a memory foam mattress. The tent is big enough for the bed plus one or two extra sleeping bags on the floor. Aside from the canvas tent, campers can also use the extra 5-person pop-up dome tent that’s provided. You'll also have a 6-ft picnic table, outdoor fire pit, 2 Adirondack chairs, and a heating source to keep you warm and toasty at night.

Max Occupancy: This refers to the total number of campers allowed onsite with your reservation.

Toilets: Every campsite is equipped with a camp toilet. This is a simple wooden box with a toilet seat and a bucket inside. To use, line the bucket with a CleanWaste Sani-Bag supplied at the camp prior to use. Afterward, simply tie the bag up and place it in a trash bag. CleanWaste Sani-Bags use a NASA-developed gelling/deodorizing agent that helps prevent spills and keeps everyone safe and clean.

Showers: Every Signature campsite comes with a Coleman Sun Shower. The sun shower has a reservoir that holds up to 5 gallons of water, potentially enough for multiple showers. It's constructed of heat-locking material that warms the water when it's left in the sun, even on cool days.

What you should bring:
-S'mores supplies & any food you'd like to eat
-A cooler to keep your grub from spoiling

After you check out, take everything you brought in, and be sure to leave your trash at the designated location.

If a host submits an incident report after your stay that details evidence of trash or damage to the campsite or the host's property, the host reserves the right to charge a minimum cleaning fee of $50. Just make sure to follow the Camper Manual posted at your campsite and you'll be set!
