Owl Creek Farm Resort
A Peaceful, Family-Friendly Nature Retreat
Welcome to Owl Creek Farm, a quiet, off-grid homestead nestled in the mountains near the Nantahala National Forest.
Our land offers a rare mix of peace, simplicity, and gentle life: a 1,300-foot natural creek, forest paths, open clearings, fruit trees, and free-roaming farm animals. It’s a place where nature sets the pace and guests of all ages can truly relax.
Owl Creek is family-friendly, but not exclusively for families. We welcome families with children, couples and solo travelers, groups, vanlifers, overlanders, self-contained RV travelers, and nature lovers seeking quiet and authenticity.
We offer primitive campsites for tents, vans, and small RVs. There are no hookups, encouraging intentional, low-impact stays. Guests must be self-sufficient and respectful of the land, animals, and other campers.
You’ll have access to a thoughtfully designed primitive overland camp that combines simplicity, comfort, and shared community spaces while staying fully immersed in nature. Guests can use a large covered living area designed for gathering, resting, or taking shelter during rain. The teepee on site has a 28-foot diameter, providing protection from weather and serving as an ideal space for relaxing, reading, socializing, or slowing down together.
Shared facilities and outdoor amenities include outdoor kitchens, outdoor showers, a bathhouse, barbecue area, fire pit, and a game room.
Guests appreciate the calm, safe, and respectful atmosphere, creek access for relaxation or supervised play, open space to explore, read, rest, or simply be, dark skies, birdsong, and true quiet at night, as well as a homestead environment rooted in care and stewardship.
This is not a party campground. Owl Creek is a place for slowing down, reconnecting, and sharing space with consideration for others—children and adults alike. If you’re looking for a grounded, welcoming camping experience where nature, peace, and respect come first, Owl Creek Farm is happy to host you.

What a value!!!!!!! 😍🤑
Dirk our host was very accommodating. We felt very safe and secure on site. We really appreciated all the communal amenities like the grill, hot tub, fire pit. Being able to bring pets with no additional al charge, also a big plus. Each teepee rental receives their OWN bathroom (away from the teepee) and each teepee has a mini fridge and air conditioning!! Dirk mentioned they might switch them out for heaters in the cold months. Also not mentioned in the listing, there is a stocked pond on site with small mouth and crappie.
Special tip, the chilhowee recreation area can be reached in LESS than 20 min via Benton Springs road, which is a mildly adventurous, low speed gravel switchback mountain road. Any vehicle should be fine in dry conditions with minimal clearance.
Excited to come back with friends and family!

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay over the weekend, attending the nearby Ellijay Apple Festival. The host was extremely pleasant and the site was wonderful! Great wooded canopy with fire pit, Adirondack Chairs, and picnic table. Other campers seemed to be really enjoying their sites as well. Would definitely recommend Mulberry Gap to anyone wishing to Car Camp, Tent/Hammock Camp, or rent one of their many cabins. We will be sure to use this site again on our next mountain adventure!

My wife and I really enjoyed our stay at Mulberry. We were only there for stop and go since we had plans in Ellijay but we are stoked to come back. The campsite is great with nice bathrooms with hot showers. The staff for us was the highlight. SUPER friendly and hard working folks. And if you’re going to stay here take advantage of the meals. The dining hall is so cool. Make sure you’re on time though! The staff wears a lot of hats and they are hard working.

My wife and I just left White Owl Campground in Sautee Nacoochee Valley, and it’s a flawless five-star escape—hands down the best! Hosted by the amazing William, this private 256-acre farm, just 10 minutes from Helen, Georgia, and Lake Burton, offers unmatched seclusion in a gated wildlife haven. Perfect for our Oktoberfest trips, it’s a quiet retreat after the festival buzz.
The trails for hiking and biking wind through lush, protected forests, teeming with wildlife, all in blissful solitude. Our private site featured a spacious setup with a picnic table, chairs, and a fire pit—roasting marshmallows with provided firewood was pure joy (no need to bring your own!). The on-site reservoir was a fishing dream, with world-class bass and brim, plus great canoeing, all in serene silence.
William’s hospitality shone—warm, helpful, and unobtrusive. Handicap-accessible sites, 5-star showers, a shared kitchen, library, office, and on-site Wi-Fi made it inclusive and convenient. After lake days, we hit Cottage House Restaurant in Cleveland for a phenomenal brunch—crispy fried chicken, cornbread, and peach cobbler, served with Southern charm at great prices.
White Owl is camping perfection: private, peaceful, and flawlessly executed. We’re already planning our return!
