Meet Piney River Resort

June 19, 2025

Building a successful business in the outdoor hospitality industry takes dedication, hard work, and the right financial partner. At CCFBank, we take immense pride in being that partner for businesses seeking not just financial services, but an ally in their growth. We are excited to share the remarkable success of Piney River Resort and Banker Chad Larson’s support.

Meet Piney River Resort

Nestled in the heart of Tennessee lies a hidden gem — Piney River Resort, a scenic riverside retreat where families come to unplug, escape, and make memories.

When Piney River Resort was put on the market, future owners Don Shepherd and Casey See immediately saw its potential to become a premier family-friendly getaway. At the time, the resort had just 45 spaces, but after their purchase, Don and Casey had plans to grow to a full-service resort that would welcome guests from across the country.

As their dream expansion took shape, they quickly realized they needed the right financial support. While they had an existing relationship with a local bank, they found that it lacked expertise in outdoor hospitality. That’s when they turned to CCFBank and Banker Chad Larson, whose deep industry knowledge allowed him to provide tailored financial solutions that fit their evolving business needs. Chad guided them every step of the way, ensuring they had the support needed to refinance and make their expansion plans a reality.

Today, Piney River has grown into one of Tennessee’s premier outdoor hospitality destinations boasting nearly 150 RV spaces, premium sites, glamping accommodations, tiny home rentals, a pool, splash pad, and retail building.

Summary

Piney River Resort has made huge strides in its journey from a small RV park to a thriving outdoor retreat with the support of CCFBank’s tailored financial solutions and commitment to their success. As Piney River continues to grow, we are honored to play a role in its transformation and look forward to seeing it thrive as a sought-after destination for outdoor enthusiasts and RV travelers alike

“CCFBank has been with us every step of the way, a valued and trusted partner that we have deeply appreciated.”
