Guild, TN · 23 sites · Tents, RVs, Lodging
Running Water Creek is a unique, fully off grid campground just 20 minutes to downtown Chattanooga. We have 80+ campsites spread out over 120 acres. Most of the roads are accessible in any small car, but some roads require 4x4 (they're marked with a sign). We have a bath house with toilets, showers, and sinks and even offer hot water! Our well and cabins are all solar-powered as we are not on the electric grid.
Some info about the property:
-we DO NOT have water or power hookups
-we have gravel roads with a 5 MPH speed limit on the property (if you drive too fast the roads will seem rough)
-we are right next to a highway and train tracks so there will be some noise (some days are better than others and we have no way of predicting how many trains will/will not go by)
-none of our campsites have picnic tables (please plan accordingly)
-most campsites have fire rings built, but if you choose a site without one you need to build your own

The Cove consists of 12 acres with a tributary stream and spring fed ponds

It is completely private and unspoiled nature, with about a mile of walking trails throughout. The Mountaintop is a 3 acre high elevation site bordering 140 acres of undisturbed woods and is also very close to the Toccoa River.
Fantastic location yet very private for base camp to access the many activities in this area, or enjoy the Toccoa River. It is the only campground in Fannin County limited to only one group at a time.
Each site includes 2 access points to the Toccoa River. The Gibbs Drive community river access lot has a charcoal grill, picnic table, boat launch, swimming rock and fire pit with chairs. The Toccoa River Forest community river access lot has a big boat ramp. The river is controlled flow and usually at low water from dawn to about 2 pm, ideal for fishing or swimming/wading/boulder bopping. The River release schedule is available online at
the website TVA.gov.
The River has swift current when the dam is opened for release, usually daily.

Chattanooga, TN · 21 sites · Tents, Lodging
We have a working farm with sweeping views of Lookout mountain and only 12 minutes from all the comforts of downtown Chattanooga. Our expansive 120-acre property provides campers with the freedom to choose their camping spots anywhere on the farm.
Farm animals include horses, cattle, hogs, chickens, goats, bees, stocked ponds, gardens and much more. We have strategically placed signs throughout the property to help you identify potential neighbors. If you desire the company of ducks, consider setting up camp near our picturesque duck pond. For those who prefer the rustic crowing of roosters to a phone alarm, we have four chicken coops dispersed across the farm. Our horses freely roam the front pastures. The cows enjoy grazing on lush grass and taking refreshing dips in the ponds. They also relish watching the sunset from the hill's vantage point, as it offers the best view on the farm.
We are a working farm with staff tending to various jobs throughout the day. We have a map to show where the camping site sits on the property. We intentionally leave some of our fields uncut. In some fields, the grass can come up above the knees. We leave that to the animals to take care of. All of our staff are super friendly and happy to help guide you to the best camping spot and answer any questions. In searching for your campsite please note that there may be livestock in and around certain areas as we rotate pastures.
Potable well water can be located from the blue spigot outside of the staff housing area, in between the orange and green tiny home, and outside the outdoor shower.
Embracing farm life is not just an adventure but also a valuable learning opportunity, whether you're a family or an individual seeking a taste of the countryside lifestyle. We hope to see you soon on the farm!

Took a road trip up here for mountains and prettier weather. This site was perfect! We set up our tent in the shelter and it held up beautifully during some nasty storms and strong winds. We have a 6 person tent and it fit with room to spare. Only like a 20 minute drive to apple picking and blue ridge!

Quiet, shady and private camp site! It was so peaceful, almost like being alone in the woods! Our site was next to the barn and we worried it would have a lot of foot traffic but we hardly noticed anyone else at all! Kate was incredibly nice and made sure our stay went great. The staff reached out to us multiple times prior to our arrival, so great communication too! Highly recommend staying at Mulberry Gap!

3 nights at Your Toccoa River Cove!
We love both of George's places. This was our first time on the cove and it was great. It feels very private and our dogs loved exploring the property. I enjoyed the sound of the creek as I fell asleep each night. We don't even bother putting up a tent, just set up our cots in the lean-to.

If you are looking for the ultimate peaceful getaway, this is the spot. Our stay was nothing short of amazing, largely thanks to the host, who was incredibly welcoming and genuinely dedicated to making sure we could completely unwind and relax from the moment we arrived.
The campsite is nestled right along the flowing banks of Hothouse Creek. Waking up to the sound of water and spending lazy afternoons lounging in the hammock right by the creek was pure bliss. The site itself is extremely well-equipped—having a smokeless fire pit, a pop-up canopy, a charcoal grill, and zero gravity chairs ready to go made setting up camp a breeze.
The 27-acre property strikes the ideal balance between remote wilderness and modern convenience. It’s quiet and private, yet just a short 15-minute drive into Blue Ridge or McCaysville when you need to grab supplies or grab a bite to eat. We also loved the indoor common house; having access to clean full bathrooms with hot showers and an air-conditioned den was a wonderful luxury.
Nature lovers will love it here. We spent our evenings stargazing under wonderfully open skies—we really appreciated the thoughtful red exterior lighting designed to protect night vision. And as a bonus, we got to meet the property's three friendly goats, plus enjoy visits from a hummingbird and fireflies.
This was our second straight year coming here and plan on fitting it in to our yearly hiking road trips. Thanks Ralph l!

What a wonderful stay at Rest and Retreat! I came as a solo female traveler with my dog and felt completely safe the entire time. Ralph is incredibly friendly and hospitable, he made me feel right at home and even started a fire for me every day, which was such a thoughtful touch.
You can tell he takes real pride in his land. The property is beautiful, peaceful, and well cared for. I stayed in site 4, the most private site (and furthest from the bath house), and loved the seclusion. The site itself was set up so nicely with a pop-up canopy, hammock, smokeless fire pit, firewood, and a comfortable wood-chip ground.
The showers and bathrooms are very nice and clean. The water is nice and hot, and they provide shampoo and soap that smell great, little details that make a big difference.
Overall, a fantastic experience. Quiet, clean, thoughtfully run, and dog-friendly. I would definitely stay here again!

Great experience here! Ralph was very hospitable and you can tell he cares about your experience at his camp site. He reached out to verify the day I was coming to see what time I’d be there, and came out to say hello when I arrived later that night which I appreciated. The bathroom facility was very nice and clean not something you will get at most campsites!
Just a quick note for people considering this site and I believe he may have posted this somewhere, I had limited/no cell phone reception, so if you need to be connected make sure you have some sort of contingency plan. Again this is to no fault of Ralph and it is the mountains of Georgia, but do be prepared!!

I had a great time. I found a nice place to set up the tent close to the pole barn, I like my coffee in the morning and didn't want to waste time getting it so I opted for the use of the electricity. The ducks were fun, I think they thought they were dogs. I was impressed by how well maintained the property was and was completely comfortable walking around. I really enjoyed walking on the grass barefoot and the mosquitoes really weren't that bad. I went for peace and quiet and that is exactly what I got. Coffee and quiet.
