Aishling the Airstream Update No 041

 Seven Points COE Campground 
 
From the Internets: Seven Points Campground offers 59 shady and spacious campsites, along with two large group picnic shelters. The campground features drinking water, a dump station, flush toilets and hot showers, creating a comfortable camping experience. A boat ramp and swimming beach are provided, allowing guests to take advantage of the vast, sparkling lake. J. Percy Priest Dam and Lake was one of the first Corps of Engineers lakes to have recreation as part of its justification. The dam, completed in 1968, impounds 42 miles, with 14,200 surface acres of water. In soothing contrast to the sparkling waters of the lake are the adjacent 19,087 acres of grasslands and woodlands. A highlight of the region, Couchville Cedar Glade Natural Area, is home to wildlife and rare plant species, including the Tennessee coneflower. 
 
Oops -
 We took a little detour before heading to Elkmont...
We needed to be in the Nashville area to attend a sweet camping friend's funeral ...
 
And I loved how us girls honored her by wearing red sneakers - which she wore every time we camped together! 

So, Craig worked his magic and found us a couple of consecutive nights at Seven Points COE - a BEAUTIFUL campground that is hard to get into!
 
I love our little home away from home!
And I love a good well-manicured yet rustic campground!
 
The view from our window as the sun peeked up through the woods - 
Good Morning! 
 Our campsite was large and flat enough to 
accommodate visitors one evening ...
We'd definitely stay here again - 
Electric and water with dump station - 
Good internet and cell service - 
Clean bath houses / showers.
