Lake Wedowee Camping

1 site · RV, Tent120 acres · Wedowee, AL
Learn more about this land:My property is 40 acres and it’s about 3 minutes from the cresent creek boat launch. The land does not touch the water but its super close. You will have the full 40 acres to yourself. I do have a neighbor that uses my driveway to get to his land on the backside of mine so you may see him come by on a tractor or John deer side by side. I have a 16x16 wooden platform you can pitch a tent on or you can pitch your tent anywhere on the property. Cars may have to straddle the middle of the drive coming in to avoid bottoming out. Also if it’s been raining hard there is a chance you could get stuck in some spots if you don’t have a 4x4. But if it’s been dry then any vehicle will make it. I just had the land logged back in December and I have tons of scrap wood that can be burned for fires. You can use generators for power. There is a camera on the property to monitor vehicles coming in. You will need to be self contained.
