Home away from home. This was our first time camping at Honeycomb and after staying for a week (5 days/4 nights) we hope to plan many more stays. The scenery was gorgeous, the campground clean, well maintained and everyone there was so nice. We pull a 19’ Coleman camper and it was very easy to back into our site and since the pad was already so level, it took minimal effort on our part to level out our camper. We had a beautiful spot right on the waters edge, we woke to warm and bright sunrises as well as enjoyed beautiful sunsets over the lake with the many many frogs providing a lovely Summers Serenade. I typically use the campground’s shower/restroom facilities and I was pleased to see they were kept very clean and supplied. Being able to purchase ice after hours at the campground store was very convenient, we would have purchased firewood this way as well but the July temps didn’t really encourage a campfire. I did cook our dinners using the fire ring and grill which were also clean and well maintained. While we were there, we hiked the TVA Honeycomb Trail which begins directly outside the campground entrance. We made a couple wrong turns (my land-Nav skills are rusty) we hiked 12 miles and didn’t actually make it to the Dam..again, my fault. Nevertheless, we still crave the fresh water from the spring we happened upon! We spent a lot of time swimming at the beach and we had a great time, the fish were very sociable and entertaining! There was a lot of grass floating on top of the water but from what I’m told by others who camp at Honeycomb frequently, that is not common, I get it though, it’s a lake! The docks were well kept and we enjoyed walking on them and they make for beautiful photo ops! Making reservations was an easy process, I made ours online and we didn’t run into any snags. We were at site 82 which was beautiful but there are some other sites that we hope to try out as well.
Thank you Honeycomb for making our trip a memorable one!!
