Very friendly personable and best of all kind, Christian and patriots! The place is gorgeous, easy to access, great directions, but far far out to unwind and unplug from technology. They do have wifi but I'd ask early because messages may not go through easily depending on your carrier. Cool thing is satellite messaging is free with the top tier verizon plan... anywho, they have roosters and chickens and what can you expect it is a cute farm so dont miss a chance to visit this incredible place!

We spent an evening at James’ place as we were driving East. It was a great stop. The tent sites are along the back of the main house in front of the pond. One central fire pit is shared between sites. Bath house is quaint, clean and stocked with towels. You will need to park at one end and walk to your site. Depending how you travel you may one site 1 as it’s the closest to parking!

Very nice place. Read his instructions, I thought I did, but not good enough. But if I can figure it out anyone can. I had no connection to the outside world. It was amazing. You can use satellites if you really have to.

I called Jimmilea on my way to Austin, Texas from North Alabama and she was extremely helpful about my pending late arrival. I arrived around 10:00 pm and drove to my spot. It was so quiet and peaceful. It has been raining and the frogs in the ponds were really happy. I have a rooftop tent on my truck, so after getting set up I slept like a rock. My alarm was set for 5:30 and the rooster woke me up shortly after 5:00. It was really nice to wake up to something other than an alarm. It was a great stay and I will certainly stay here again.

Tent camped alone for a get away. Never thought about it before but felt safe due to farm is personally owned verses staying at camp ground that has a host for a week and then leaves. James & Jimmilea were so pleasant and quick to respond to emails Farm is kept up and has a great feel. Thank you James & Jimmilea for a wonderful stay.

Jubilee is quaint and comfortable. I think they have a great thing going. The only drawback was the shower had no hot water and there is only one so lots of knocks on the door. But they were kind and everything else was nice.
