Davis Branch Campground

Nestled at an elevation of 2,254 feet, Davis Branch Campground offers a quiet, rugged escape in the heart of the Tennessee wilderness. Managed by the USFS, this federal campground provides a primitive setting perfect for those looking to disconnect and enjoy the natural beauty of the Southeast. Because it operates on a first-come, first-served basis, it maintains an authentic, spontaneous atmosphere for travelers seeking a simple place to stay.

The campground is best suited for self-sufficient campers who enjoy a moderate experience level, as there are no hookups or listed amenities on-site. Visitors should come prepared with all necessary supplies for a rustic stay. Whether you are arriving by RV or prefer a traditional tent setup, the site offers a peaceful base camp for those comfortable with dispersed-style federal land camping.

To secure your spot, simply arrive on-site and claim your site. If available, you can utilize the Recreation.gov Scan and Pay feature, so be sure to download the app before you head into the mountains where cellular service may be limited. Open year-round, Davis Branch is a great choice for adventurers who value accessibility and the freedom of the great outdoors.
