High speed, Nascar style outdoor adventure is so abundant at Talladega National Forest, we’re pretty sure Ricky Bobby spends his days here. Feel the wind in your hair on the Kentuck OHV or Sylaward Mountain Bike Trails. If you’re wanting more solitude, try hiking the challenging Odum Point where dwarf trees dot the landscape. Stunning laurels and huckleberry bushes will greet trail riders in the spring, and camping is as perfect as it gets with fall foliage greeting you in the autumn. Waterfalls, rugged ridgetops, and shady hollers ensure there’s no need to get hopped up on mountain dew; Talladega will have you hopped on adventure before you can say “shake and bake”!

Private, quiet, off-grid, trails, wildlife, a creek, camping, authentic. The cabin sits in the middle of a ten-acre property adjacent to the Talladega National Forest. It is located eight miles north of the small town of Heflin, Alabama, which is about an hour and a half from the metro areas of Birmingham, Alabama, and Atlanta, Georgia.
Off a small county road, a private half-mile gravel road leads to the property’s end. The cabin is surrounded by hundreds of square miles of forest. To the west, directly behind the cabin, there are over nine miles of continuous forest before reaching a hard-top road, and beyond that, over six miles to the next road. To the north, there are over sixty miles of continuous forest to the next road. Pinhoti Trailheads are nearby.
The ten acres is mostly forested, and all surrounding properties are similarly wooded. The back side of the property is bordered by a year-round creek. There are two open meadows, one of which is a pawpaw orchard.
Trails and a covered pavilion are located down by the creek. In season, you can enjoy blueberries, blackberries, and muscadines. Because the property is so remote—and because the surrounding areas adhere to International Dark Sky standards—you can enjoy spectacular stargazing on clear nights.
If you are looking for an off-grid experience in a forest and a quiet place to get away, this is the place for you.

Turkey Track Retreat
17. Turkey Track Retreat
13mi from Choccolocco · 1 site
Private, quiet, off-grid, trails, wildlife, a creek, camping, authentic. The cabin sits in the middle of a ten-acre property adjacent to the Talladega National Forest. It is located eight miles north of the small town of Heflin, Alabama, which is about an hour and a half from the metro areas of Birmingham, Alabama, and Atlanta, Georgia.
Off a small county road, a private half-mile gravel road leads to the property’s end. The cabin is surrounded by hundreds of square miles of forest. To the west, directly behind the cabin, there are over nine miles of continuous forest before reaching a hard-top road, and beyond that, over six miles to the next road. To the north, there are over sixty miles of continuous forest to the next road. Pinhoti Trailheads are nearby.
The ten acres is mostly forested, and all surrounding properties are similarly wooded. The back side of the property is bordered by a year-round creek. There are two open meadows, one of which is a pawpaw orchard.
Trails and a covered pavilion are located down by the creek. In season, you can enjoy blueberries, blackberries, and muscadines. Because the property is so remote—and because the surrounding areas adhere to International Dark Sky standards—you can enjoy spectacular stargazing on clear nights.
If you are looking for an off-grid experience in a forest and a quiet place to get away, this is the place for you.

Mountain Cabin on the Chief Ladiga Bike Path, Terrapin Creek, and Pinhoti Trail
Our cabin is tucked away on a private road bordering the Chief Ladiga Bike Path and Big & Little Terrapin Creek. It sits adjacent to the Talladega National Forest and is within walking distance of the Pinhoti Hiking Trail. We also have private hiking trails throughout the property.
The twin beds are located in the loft of the cabin, and there is a couch in the living room.
This is the perfect quiet getaway from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The cabin is about 15 minutes from downtown Piedmont, which has multiple coffee shops, restaurants, fast food, grocery stores, and antique shops.
We provide a refrigerator, coffee maker, microwave, oven with stovetop, dishwasher, and kitchenware to make your stay comfortable.
You will be blown away by the mountain and creek views. A hiking path leads up to an overlook with a swing — the perfect spot to enjoy your morning coffee and watch the sunrise. We are 15–20 minutes from Indian Mountain ATV Park (with space to park your trailer) and less than a two-hour drive to Birmingham, Chattanooga, and Atlanta.
Visit Gadsden (~35 minutes) to explore Noccalula Falls Park, especially beautiful with Christmas lights, or Fort Payne (~an hour) to explore Little River Canyon and Desoto Falls.
We also have a raised-bed vegetable garden that guests are welcome to harvest during their stay. Our property offers especially stunning views in the fall when the leaves are changing. The property spans both sides of the bike path at mile marker 9 on the Chief Ladiga.

It was quiet and private. The dogs felt at home. Really couldn’t get wet on the property. Plenty of area to fish. All in all, I would stay again, but it would have to be earlier in the year or later in the year because there’s no way that you can swim out there really which is important to us.

Stayed in Tent site 2. Was right on top of the outdoor kitchen which was great. Site was nice. We brought our own firepit. Amazing star watching. Saw tons of satellites and a couple shooting stars. Only complaint is that my wife and daughter hated the restroom. So if you’re not feeling adventurous you may want to bring a camp toilet. For the price I didn’t care. I will definitely go back. Great communication from the host. Beautiful area.

The land was so beautiful and peaceful. We stayed at “The Ledge” and had amazing views and sounds (waterfalls, birds, and tigers)! Everything was well-kept. The shower was nice and got hot! The wood-fire bundle was also worth it. Thank you for the great place to stay!

Weekend Trip to Parksland Retreat
FF3 is situated a comfortable distance into the forest, and has you overlooking the creek. Which means you are lulled to sleep by the sound of the water, and woken by the sounds of the birds! We couldn't have asked for a more peaceful, and serene escape for our weekend! Dusty has created a beautiful oasis in the forest, and we are lucky that he shares his amazing space! Cell service is extremely limited, giving you the opportunity to truly unplug from the world! I can't wait to go back!
