We’ve come a long way in the last year, we have platforms, tents we can set up as glampers for those that love the idea but don’t want to have to set it all up. There’s several old buildings and unfinished projects left behind from my father we have a series of small cabins we will be building with them over the next 2 years it’ll be called “Boho Bottom”. We also host events, so far they are few and small but so much fun!! There is currently one communal bathroom with several more due to be built in the next year or so.

I don't usually select RV parks on Hipcamp but there were few options in the area and this one looked pretty good and I needed electric hookup due to the cold weather. This turned out to be a good spot. There was only one other camper there so I was very quiet. Clubhouse and bathrooms are a nice plus. The bathrooms were heated and spotless.

Chris’s land was very secluded but easily accessible. We really enjoyed our two night stay. Very close to Dismal Canyons and a few miles from town in case you need anything. I would suggest taking water for drinking/cleaning up. I would definitely recommend and I am planning another trip soon.

Very few RV Parks betweenTupelo and Birmingham so Matt's camp is a good location. And only a couple of miles off the interstate. Nice secluded, quiet, and shaded area. Clean bathhouse. We will stay there again if our travels take us that way.

I love camping by the creek and falling asleep to the sound of the water. Wading in the stream was surreal and completely rejuvenating.

My fiancé and I spent a weekend at this campsite in late summer, and it was absolutely magical. It gets very hot, so be sure to bring a canopy for shade or plan to spend most of your time relaxing in the creek, which we happily did.
The location was beautiful and easy to find, and the owner made us feel welcome right away. We set up in the open field so we could enjoy prime stargazing, and it turned out to be the perfect spot. The night sky was incredible.
The real highlight was the creek. It was refreshing, freeing, and so much fun for both us and our dogs. I highly recommend walking upstream behind the campsite until you reach a cliff area with a stunning waterfall. Just make sure to wear good water shoes, as it can get slippery.
A 100 out of 10 stay. We will definitely be coming back!

First booking on Hipcamp and wow did I find an amazing place! Sharla, Garrett and kids are the most precious family and awesome host! My site was right where 2 creeks join and having the babbling water sing me to sleep each night was amazing. Very secluded place with open skies, no lights and very little road noise. If you love exploring creeks or just forest bathing- this is a perfect spot to do it! My 2 pups were able to be off leash almost the entire time and that is so rare to find. Our favorite spot was where the 2 creeks merge. I had a spiritual moment there. The water temp is about 15-20• cooler in one verses the other. I found a flat rock and sat in the creeks allowing one side of my body to be in the cooler water and the other in the warmer- I can’t describe the feeling I experienced, but I certainly felt some cleansing/healing energy work being performed by Mother Nature. I found myself briefly sobbing and then felt my body just let it all go- shoulders relaxed, my spine felt like it was being rung out like a dirty mop. Nuts it may seem- but I walked away from this trip feeling more whole than I have in a long time. The place is magical.
Cell service was in and out which I enjoyed. It’s advertised as a “short walk” in and it’s literally steps away. I’m a heavy packer so I was concerned, but felt like an idiot when I arrived. 😂 Single female and felt completely safe.
Sharla’s Rosemary focaccia was a great addition.
Book it now! We will def be returning!

This land was absolutely gorgeous. The creek is clear and cold. Our kids loved wading in the water and finding small fish. The camping area is huge with a ton of options for set up. We pull a utility trailer with a large SUV and tent camp and had lots of space left. Hosts were more than accommodating when we had to leave mid-trip due to my daughter falling ill. Would highly recommend this spot. We hope to return.
