About this place
Edun Hill Nudist Campground operates as a members-only naturist retreat in the wooded hills outside Clinton, Tennessee, about 20 miles northwest of Knoxville. It's part of a scattered network of private campgrounds across the Southeast that cater to regional naturist communities—places that fly under the radar compared to established AANR resorts. The property sits on rural acreage typical of East Tennessee hill country: mixed hardwoods, rolling terrain, and a few open clearings for social gatherings. You'll find basic infrastructure like a clubhouse, bathhouse, and RV/tent sites. The membership model is common for small campgrounds like this—you typically need to join, visit with a current member, or arrange a day visit by phone to meet the operators first. It's a quiet, low-key setting; most activity centers on weekend potlucks and informal socializing under the trees. Summers here are hot and humid, so shade and fans are your friends. The campground appeals to people looking for privacy and a no-frills naturist experience without the polish (or price tag) of bigger commercial resorts. Cell service can be unreliable depending on carrier and exact location on the property. This is backwoods Tennessee naturism—decidedly low-key, community-driven, and removed from the day-tripper crowds you'd find at better-known destinations.

Who visits
Visitor demographics aren't well-documented publicly. Typical for small member campgrounds in the region, it likely draws older couples and regional naturist regulars from Tennessee and nearby states. Families and younger visitors appear less common, though policies vary. Expect a quiet, insular crowd—people who've been coming for years and know each other.
How to find it
The campground is on Offutt Road outside Clinton, Tennessee, roughly 20 miles northwest of Knoxville. Access is via rural two-lane roads through hill country. You'll need to contact the operators by phone before visiting—membership-only properties don't welcome unannounced arrivals. GPS coordinates should get you close, but confirm directions when you call ahead.
Things to watch out for
Membership or sponsor required—don't just show up. Call ahead to arrange a visit or inquire about day passes for prospective members. Summer heat and humidity are intense; plan activities for mornings or evenings. Cell service is spotty in the hills. Roads can be rough after heavy rain, typical for rural East Tennessee.

Etiquette & ground rules
Members-only means you need advance contact before showing up — call or email through the website. Bring a towel for any shared seating, especially in the clubhouse. Photography requires explicit permission from everyone visible in frame. Respect quiet hours after dark since people camp close together. If you're visiting as a guest, your host member is responsible for introducing you and explaining any property-specific rules. Clean up after yourself in common areas and bathhouses.

Bear Naked
Bear Naked is a small clothing-optional lodging tucked into the foothills near Sevierville, Tennessee, in the shadow of the Great Smoky Mountains. This isn't a resort in the traditional sense — no clubhouse, no pool, no organized activities. Instead, it operates as a private naturist accommodation for travelers who want a clothing-optional home base while exploring East Tennessee. The property appears to cater to a quiet, low-profile crowd looking for privacy rather than social programming. Sevierville sits between Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge, putting you within easy reach of the Smokies' hiking trails, tourist attractions, and mountain scenery. Tennessee's naturist infrastructure is sparse compared to states like Florida or California, so options like this fill a niche for visitors who want to stay nude when they're not out sightseeing. With minimal online presence and only a handful of reviews, Bear Naked keeps things intentionally quiet. You won't find amenities lists or extensive documentation — this is more of a "naturist Airbnb" than a full-service destination. If you're planning a trip to the Smokies and want a place where you can be nude between hikes, this could work, but set expectations accordingly. Reach out directly for availability, pricing, and house rules.

Rock Haven Lodge, Inc
Rock Haven Lodge is a members-only naturist club in Murfreesboro, about 30 miles southeast of Nashville. It operates year-round on wooded property that offers the kind of established, low-key atmosphere common to many midsize AANR-affiliated clubs across the Southeast. You'll find a pool (heated in winter), hot tub, and clubhouse as the main gathering spots, along with tent and RV sites for overnight stays. The grounds are heavily shaded by mature trees, which makes summer afternoons bearable but also means spring arrives a bit later here than at more open properties. This is a family-friendly environment where all ages are welcome. The vibe leans toward regulars who've known each other for years, so first-timers might feel a little like outsiders at first. That said, people generally warm up once you introduce yourself and make an effort. Weekends draw the bigger crowds, especially May through September. Weekday visits can feel quiet. Membership is required for access, which is standard for private clubs in Tennessee—naturism here doesn't have the public-land presence it does out West, so clubs like Rock Haven fill that gap for locals and regional visitors looking for a consistent, socially comfortable place to practice naturism.
