The Property: Located north of Cookeville in the rolling hills and farmland, our property is on Spring Creek, a state scenic river. Situated between two waterfalls and featuring over half a mile of river frontage to explore. Float, fish and relax listening to the cascading water. Perfect for bird watchers- blue and green herons, ospreys, hawks, bald eagles and more. You may spot the creek critters- minks, beavers, and otters. Various types of bass, craw dad's and minnows are in the creek. We operate similar to a state park. We are open to the public from 10am-7pm, peak season. We have other listings that are spaced so each of our guests has privacy. Please see aerial photo for an overview. We sometimes have small events (birthday parties, ect) at the pavilion. Please feel free to message us first, if you would like to see if there are any events during your stay. There are 2 restrooms centrally located at the pavilion. One bathroom has a shower with hot water, soap, shampoo/conditioner included. The restrooms are shared with our other listings. There are USB and regular outlets in the pavilion and WiFi. During warm season the outdoor kitchen is available as well. We also rent out a Suite which is located above the pavilion. Quiet hours are 10pm-8am. Pets are welcome as long as they are leashed and picked up after. Please note there is a gun range 2 hollers away and depending on the season, it can be heard from our property. Tent in the Trees Listing: Your tent site is built above the trail and overlooking the creek. The tent is equipped with a queen bed, linens, and extra blankets. Your essential cooking gear (plates, utensils, cups, cookware, french press, coffee and 1 burner camp stove). There is a fire pit with grill and griddles for cooking over wood or charcoal. We supply fire wood for you and you're welcome scavange the wood nearby. Really, all you need is clothes, food and drink! Primitive Camp Site: The rustic camp site is DIY. It is 300' from pavilion, and 600' from Tent in the Trees. We provide a picnic table and fire pit with wood. You bring all the rest of your gear. Typically, you may park next to your campsite. If you have forgotten any gear, please ask us. We have some supplies available for rent. No RV's, converted vans are permitted. If you have a very small camper, please message us to see if we can accommodate. There are no hookups, and no loud generators allowed. Escape in nature and sleep soundly to the sounds of the creek!

Tent in the trees

We are veteran campers and know what to bring. When Alice says just bring clothes and food, she isn't lying. Everything you would need for your camping experience is provided which makes for the ultimate glamping experience. The best river access for swimming and fishing that stretches the entire property! We will definitely return.

Camping at Waterloo Falls

Perfect little detour for a cross-country drive. Easy to locate, quiet, exactly what I was looking for.

Tent in the trees

Absolutely loved our stay in the tent! The hosts were as pleasant as one can be and the site was nothing short of magical! My dog loved both waterfalls and the rain was more enchanting than anything. We look forward to our next stay, 10/10 will be coming back!

Camping at Waterloo Falls

The tent camping location was exactly as described. Short walk to the covered pavilion, restroom and showers which were clean, well stocked, and inviting. Sounds of the surrounding waterfalls were peaceful and pleasant. Due to bad weather we had to leave early. But our visit was nice. Definitely would like to come back and use the tent on the property!
