The Bolo Club

60 sites · Tents5500 acres · Sherwood, TN

Our grandparents moved to the farm on Little Crow Creek on September 27, 1927 from up in Sinking Cove. They had six children with our dad, Charlie Jr., being one of them. Charlie Stubblefield Sr. was a very interesting man with a wide curiosity in just about anything that had to do with history, Indian artifacts, Civil War, fossils, oral history, religion and more. Therefore, the small museum on the property next to the pavilion is dedicated to our grandfather. Charlie Sr. and our grandmother served as Justices of the Peace for over 30 years. Further, our grandmother was the backbone of the family, and was a gracious lady with a special personality to handle the rigors of the day; we miss them both very much. The area has many interesting stories and legacies of characters of yesterday and today. Visiting The Bolo Club will be like stepping back in time to a slower pace where hopefully you will be able to enjoy the atmosphere and spirit of the farm.Learn more about this land:The Bolo Club has a unique combination of accommodations and activities, making it the perfect getaway.

Mt. Doom's Haunted Woodlands

5 sites · RVs, Tents200 acres · Hanceville, AL

Mt. Doom has over 200 acres of woodlands that have not been cut in nearly a century. We play paintball on a small part of the property on weekends and you can join in! However, 90% of the area is totally virgin timberland and you could walk all day without seeing another living soul. Lots of trails and roadways to hike and views off the mountains at every turn. Less than 1.5 mi. from Mulberry River with whitewater rapids or swimming access. Some say spirits roam these woods but not in a malevolent way, just strange noises, sudden winds and leaves moving or the feeling of being watched. Awesome view of the constellations far from ground light clutter and an eerie quietness prevails. Crows will follow your movements and talk about you right to your face! An unforgettable destination stop that you will mark on your map for every visit you take to Alabama.Learn more about this land:Over 200 acres of undeveloped southern woodlands surrounded by corporate owned timber lands that are fully accessible for hiking or mountain biking. Campsite overlooks 20 miles of unobstructed view from a grassy point on the last mountains in the Appalachian Mountain chains. Very isolated and quiet with good view of constellations at night. Miles of woodland roadways and trails where you won't see another person but might catch a glimpse of any number of southern woodland creatures. A little noisy on weekends as we operate a paintball/airsoft field on part of the property, but otherwise you'd be the only people in the woods for miles around. Paintball "extra" available if you'd like to try a survival game while you are here!
