1 night at Tack Tavern Ranch

This whole site was awesome. The western village was cool and the porch was perfect for sitting and watching the world go by. Lorna was a great host and we enjoyed talking all night on the porch. Her little dogs are all little characters and they got along with our rotty and beagle no problem. The creek house itself was extremely comfortable and had everything we could have needed. If I knew what I was in for I would have booked for longer.

1 night at Dark Hollow

Amazing host, incredible landscape … pictures don’t do it justice. Extreme hiking trails

1 night at Argo’s Park & Trails

We were on a roadtrip from Nashville to New Orleans and we couldn’t have wished for a better pitstop than at Jimmy’s land in Mount Olive! We have an autonomous converted van and happened to be the only campers on site; it was very easy to get to the location, which was beautiful and very peaceful—we had a great night sleep! Jimmy was a perfect host, very responsive and accommodating to our last minute request, and he made us feel very welcome. We highly recommend <3

1 night at Sipsey Creek Farm

This is our third time staying at Sipsey Creek Farm, as it's a good half way point in our travels between Georgia and Arkansas. My son loves petting the animals (esp the 3 cats!) and Andra is super friendly and accommodating.

2 nights at Argo’s Park & Trails

We loved our experience. We had the place to ourselves. Easy to locate. Best parts were the frogs we kept finding everywhere!!

2 nights at Tack Tavern Ranch

The property is beautiful. We loved watching the horses in the pasture. The barn cats and many dogs were adorable. The owners were very welcoming and hospitable. It’s a great place to get away

Weekend Trip to Hidden Acres Getaway LLC.

For us it was an enjoyable experience. It is located near a bike trail on TVA property that is absolutely beautiful. The campground itself was small and quaint exactly what we wanted. The host were responsive and very nice. Our camp spot was level with great connection through our Verizon provider for a hotspot. There is not a lake view here or clear access from the campground to the water. But there are several boat ramps in the area. However, we came for the bike ride and local trails. Our doodle also enjoyed the freedom and the wildlife. Check out Murphy Hill if you like horseback riding or biking while you are in the area. We will be back!

Weekend Trip to Sipsey Creek Farm

Great campsite, nice and secluded. They provide you with a lot of stuff in the tent and the beds are comfortable. All in all I would recommend it to anyone. You can get to it by car but if it rains a lot you're better off in a truck.

Weekend Trip to Dark Hollow

Place was great, awsome trail and creek Its about a 2 hour hike. Creek and small falls great place for a peaceful sit down

4 nights at Dug Hill Moto & Outdo Shenanigans

When you want a primative site, this site has desireable qualities: Close to level, secluded, quite, peaceful, close enough to paved road. They have significantly recovered from nearby tornado damages.

Weekend Trip to Bates Farm

Owners are very nice and had great communication. These sites are big and very spread out so lots of privacy. We will be back.

4 nights at Hidden Acres Getaway LLC.

Absolutely nice quiet place,eagles flying around deer when I pulled up. Everything worked with no problems at all

Weekend Trip to Tack Tavern Ranch

Lorna and Denny are amazing individuals who are very hospitable and friendly. We enjoyed our time at the Tack Tavern Ranch, we just wish we had more time there. Lorna and Denny have set up their ranch so beautifully from all the animals, the rolling hills, the delicious canned goods in the store, and a very fun saloon as a place to gather and enjoy company. Would highly recommend and look forward to staying again!

Weekend Trip to Bates Farm

We had a great time camping here. The land is very secluded and quiet. The owners offer a wide range of activities for families and those who are interested in archery! My husband and I took advantage of the archery set up. The small bathhouse has everything you need to get cleaned up including private full bathroom with toilet, shower with hot water, sink and storage to place your items. Everything was kept clean as well. Mary and her husband were great hosts and were available to help us as needed. They also gave fun suggestions for things to do in the area as our original plans had been cancelled due to rainy weather. If we are ever back in the area, we will be camping here again!

Weekend Trip to Dark Hollow

Dark Hollow was a beautiful spot, amazing views, and lots of great trails to explore. It was also really cool being able to hear the lions from the animal sanctuary. She said yes by the way, thanks so much Danny.

Weekend Trip to Bates Farm

Great campsites with plenty of privacy. Very clean. Great for kids. Will return

Weekend Trip to Dark Hollow

Really nice campsite with a fun hike to a creek with waterfalls. My son and I had a blast playing in the water during the day, and enjoyed some really nice views at night.

Weekend Trip to Argo’s Park & Trails

Breath of Life Farm

2 sites · RVs, Tents21 acres · Ashville, AL

The Dry Bones Live (Ezekiel 37). The first visit in 2019 to this 21 acres was both a shock and a confirmation. It had everything on our check list and more - nearly flat land, convenient location, but also twice the acreage, a roadbed, diversity, Monarch butterflies everywhere, access to a big lake.....and it was littered with logs!! They were in piles and scattered everywhere. But this particular land was being placed in my hands to steward and to reveal the creativity and loving nature of Yahweh. And that meant not bulldozing or burning the logs. Instead, the task was to breathe life into the logs and the land through gentle stewardship to protect the biodiversity and build good soil. Breath of Life Farm is being regeneratively developed to cultivate elderberries, vineyards, peaches, mushrooms, and small plantations of trees for wood or nuts. My sister, Pam, and I hope that visitors will come to enjoy the seasonal changes of flower colors, watch for foot and hoof prints of wildlife, enjoy the songs of the birds and the frogs, see how many different native mushroom species they can spot, and be marveled by the stars as they sparkle in the dark night sky. Our wish is that through the years, folks return to see the changes and positive impact of regenerative farming practices. To be a witness to the life breathed into this land. We hope you will be inspired, uplifted, strengthened, and energized by the story of Breath of Life Farm. Peace and blessings, SandraLearn more about this land:Drive up to very private site. Beautiful sunsets and night sky. Wildlife, diverse plants, birdwatching. Learn about regenerative farming. Fish/kayak/canoe at lake or creek. Horse Pens 40/Ashville/Springville minutes away (good restaurants). 1 hour to Mentone, Little River Canyon, Lake Guntersville. Video security at entrance.

Dug Hill Moto & Outdo Shenanigans

7 sites · RVs, Tents32 acres · Gurley, AL

🏍️ Please note that we are a Motorcycle campground only. Please do not ask for exceptions 🏍️. Monte Sano Mountain rises quietly above Huntsville, Alabama—an unflashy ridge of limestone and shadow that holds more history and wilderness than most who pass it ever realize. It is not a mountain of spectacle but of mood, of subtle discoveries, and of quiet resistance to modern noise. Its slopes are threaded with forgotten wagon paths, foot-worn trails, and the slow, unrelenting work of water. Caves open like cracks in time. Small waterfalls cut through dense forest and vanish into the ground. Towering trees—oak, hickory, and poplar—form a green cathedral overhead, filtering light in ways that feel reverent. In some pockets, the air still carries the chill of the earth itself. Beneath the surface runs a deeper story. Long before Huntsville pushed east, Monte Sano offered its elevation to the sick, the curious, and the stubborn. Tuberculosis patients came in the 19th century, seeking healing in the mountain’s clean, dry air. Naturalists cataloged rare plants here. Native peoples traveled and camped across its ridgelines, long before names were given or boundaries drawn. And yet, despite the time that has passed, the mountain remains unpolished—intact. For those who seek true solitude, a few primitive campsites are available through Hipcamp. These are not curated experiences. There are no toilets. No showers. No host waiting with coffee or gear. Just a trail, a flat spot in the woods, and the sound of your own boots on rock. It is camping reduced to its essential form: a place to lie down among trees and stars, with nothing between you and the mountain but time. Monte Sano doesn’t posture. It does not cater. It exists—and that, for some, is enough.
