Blue Heron Campground was once home to the Cherokee Indians.
Property is surrounded on all sides by water and has a mile and a half shoreline on the Tennessee river. Just to the North begins a designated 20 mile Wildlife Refuge following the river. It is 340 acres to roam and has rich farmland that has also grazed cattle.
People's landing is now the swim beach and sand boat ramp. It was a port of commerce when the main types of transportation, prior to good roads, were the steamboats, ferry boats, and trains.
Just north of People's landing used to be a post office and small store at Daniel's Landing.
The Tennessee River is one of only three rivers that flow North in the United States.
People can now use it for camping, fishing or just watching the boats and barges go by. Enjoy!
Blue Heron Campground is primitive camping with no services located 10 miles west of Lobelville, Tennessee. There is a marina for supplies within 3 miles. You can camp right on the shoreline of the Tennessee river and enjoy the river for fishing or swimming. Take a 20 mile day trip to Loretta Lynn's ranch or go 70 miles to Nashville. Enjoy 358 acres to hike and explore open meadows and forest. Enjoy the birds and the boats going by. Hopefully a beautiful sunset over the river to end the day.
Go to website for more Info and directions.
This is a great little island for bird watching, adventuring off the water, or a quick stop while boating. #pconnection
