Journey to the riverside
Overview
Journey to the Riverside is a campground property located in Decaturville, United States, set directly on the Tennessee River within a private, gated community. The setting emphasizes waterfront access and natural surroundings rather than a conventional hotel building, making it a distinctive option for travelers seeking an outdoor, riverside stay.
Site & Hookups
Sites come with an RV concrete slab and septic hookup paired with a 30 amp RV plug, catering specifically to RV travelers who need reliable utility connections. The gated community setting adds a layer of privacy and security not typical of open public campgrounds.
Amenities & Recreation
The property is pet-friendly, welcoming travelers with animals. Guests have access to a boat ramp right on the Tennessee River, and a country club with a golf course is located just a mile away for those wanting a round of golf during their stay.
Location & Surroundings
The campground sits near notable outdoor destinations including Perryville Marina, Clifton City Park, Mousetail Landing State Park, and Beech Bend Recreation Area, all offering opportunities to explore the region's natural beauty and recreational activities. Several dining options are within reach, ranging from the very close J.R.'s Market and Family Restaurant just over a kilometer away to Cowboy Steak House, Purple Cow Eatery, and more distant spots like Cafe Magnolia and Hagy's Catfish Hotel Restaurant.
Best for
This property is best suited for RV travelers and boating enthusiasts, thanks to its concrete RV pads, septic and 30 amp hookups, and direct boat ramp access on the Tennessee River. It also appeals to pet owners seeking a pet-friendly outdoor stay and to golfers, given the nearby country club and course just a mile down the road.
Travel tips
Travelers arriving with an RV should confirm hookup specifications (30 amp, septic, concrete slab) in advance to ensure compatibility with their rig. Since the community is gated and private, guests should plan for check-in logistics related to gate access. Bringing your own boat is worthwhile given the on-site boat ramp, and golfers may want to pack clubs for the nearby course.
