Primitive camping
Best for self-contained campers. There are no toilets, showers, or potable water at this Hipcamp.
This camp site has one of the most beautiful bluff views in all of northern Alabama. The mounds located on the bluff date back 10,000-12,000 years ago to the paleo Indian era. You can hike for days and climb up and down the bluff to experience the base of the rocks. Camp with the Indian spirits.  This 10,000-12,000 year old Indian site with mounds created by the Indians is one of the most beautiful sites in Northern Alabama.  Bring a tent or sleep under the stars on this memorable bluff.  Hike over the 162 acres and scale the bluff for an exciting hike along the base of the rocks where Indians also camped long ago.Camp with the Indian spirits.  This 10,000-12,000 year old Indian site with mounds created by the Indians is one of the most beautiful sites in Northern Alabama.  Bring a tent or sleep under the stars on this memorable bluff.  Hike over the 162 acres and scale the bluff for an exciting hike along the base of the rocks where Indians also camped long ago.

We could not find the location whatsoever. No response from the host. We wasted 50 bucks and 2 and a half hour drive both ways.

An adventure with beautiful views!
So this was an adventure! Beautiful land/views. It was amazing to watch the sunset and the great morning views even with the cold and rain. I did bring a fire ring which was helpful since there was no designated fire ring. It was a little hot the first day on arrival (in the 80's) with limited shade which I kind of figured from the photos. Now the drive in I would not attempt again in my truck. It was pretty stressful and narrow with branches scratching the sides and trees to maneuver around. Luckily my son walked it and tried to guide me through the best path to avoid obstacles. This is best either with adventure or sport bikes, or an atv or an off road truck or vehicle. Definitely not an everyday 4 wheel drive truck. Now if you planned to backpack in that would also work. We did have two or 3 groups of people come to this site while we were there with one group in a truck that had planned on camping there and did not know this was a rented site. Luckily other reviews mentioned this but it was quite strange and if you expect privacy I would not plan on it. There was a lot of dogs or maybe coyotes barking throughout the night and especially in the morning it sounded like there was a kennel down below but my son can sleep through anything. Overall it was an experience we will never forget and I would gladly go again if someone else wanted to take their vehicle lol!

This was such a beautiful and quiet spot! 10/10, we will definitely be visiting again. The trail getting up to the campsite was a little rough, but fun to navigate.
