4. Magical Microfarm & Cat Sanctuary

34mi from Macon · 1 site · Tent, RV · Milledgeville, GA

Communitowhee (or Towhee) Farm is the rebirth of a retired, 19th century tenement estate located in the Mvskoke Indian territory of Milledgeville, GA. The land is divided into a working, 40+ acre pine forest and a 1-acre tract envisioned as an organic produce farm. On the 1-acre tract, in the pecan grove next to the tiny home where you'll be staying, there is 120v electrical as well as a water hookup. We also have tiki torches and a fire pit for spending time around the fire in the evening. PLEASE READ CAREFULLY! All fires must be contained inside the designated hubcap chiminea. Do not attempt to build any fires outside of this container. All fires must be fully extinguished when unattended. We welcome you to join us for an evening or a few on our homestead! The microfarm is complete with D.I.Y. designs; fruit trees, raised beds, composting bins, a bat house, water-catchment barrels, a fruit/vegetable sun-dryer, and a 11-by-40-foot greenhouse. It's our home and humble work in progress community vision. Currently in residence are our domestic and farm cats, some of whom you may meet during your stay. Every step of Communitowhee’s growth has been taken with deep thought and consideration for the health and history of its land. Each infrastructure design has been and will continue to be built from sustainable, up and recycled materials to minimize environmental impact. And, whether it be converting a traditional garden bed into a self-irrigating wicking bed or figuring out how to affix new tires to an antique Radio Flyer wagon — every project has been achieved through grit, trial-and-error, tons of YouTube videos, and the inherited instincts of many centuries of farming ancestors. During the growing season you might find: Eggplant, tomatoes, yellow squash, cucumbers, jalapeno peppers, bell peppers, green onions, garlic chives, kale, collards, cabbage, lettuce, watermelon, cantaloupe, and various herbs basil, turmeric, dandelion, dog fennel, mint, pear, plum, blackberries and fig trees as well as many varieties of blueberry. Our long-term vision for Communitowhee is a hybrid community consisting of an ecovillage, monastery, and workers cooperative, But if we’ve learned anything as newbie farmers, the path to abundance is taken one small step at a time.

1 night at Golden Goose Lodge And RV

Scott was incredibly nice guy. Love what he is building at the Golden Goose. Living the dream! Showers and toilets are built ans is the party shed and they may not yet show on his page. This was just a “passing through” trip for us and he is a little off the beaten path but worth the few minutes to get there. Maybe 20 minutes from the Buc-ees at Warner Robbins so you’ve got everything….and a beautiful drive to get there!!

This was a perfect peaceful stay. Canille helped me with navigating there and made sure me and my pup didn’t need anything during our stay. She checked in on us and even gave Reggie dog treats to go before we headed out. Thank you for great hospitality! Also thank you Leo for keeping us guarded and protected during the night!

Haywood was amazing. I’m definitely going to stay there on my way back across the country. I wish I could’ve stayed more than two nights. He was totally accommodating. The land is very special and all the animals were incredible. Haywood is amazing. It’s a must stay.!!!

Weekend Trip to Golden Goose Lodge And RV

Scott is building a nice RV park. As of this writing, in Feb 2025, spots are dirt but level. He has a beautiful covered pavilion with picnic tables and, as others have said, plenty of places to walk a dog.

The host, Scott, is very attentive and responsive. Allowing us to book late in the day for a stopover. It’s an RV park in development (about 8 sites were in use) and you can see he’s invested in building long term clientele. The pads are quite long and currently, back ins. A very welcoming lighted pavilion had been built.

This was a great place to stay. We had privacy, plenty of space, and a beautiful setting. My great-niece and nephew thoroughly enjoyed the tire swings. It was nice to be where our dogs were welcome. I hope to stay again.

The best luxury RV camping near Macon guide

Where to go

Ocmulgee Mounds National Historical Park

Explore the ancient landscapes of Ocmulgee Mounds National Historical Park, originally settled by Paleo-Indians over 12,000 years ago. Mississippian burial mounds, eight miles of wilderness trails, and Walnut Creek wetlands promise hiking adventures year-round. Ocmulgee Mounds also provide an exciting backdrop for annual events like September’s Ocmulgee Indigenous Celebration and the Lantern Light Tour held in spring. Nearby campgrounds and cabin rentals are available.

Lake Tobesofkee Recreation Area

Fish, swim, or boat at the Lake Tobesofkee Recreation Area, a popular Macon attraction for all ages. The park features family-friendly amenities like kids’ playgrounds and a popular disc golf course. Launch a boating excursion from Lake Tobesofkee’s 35 miles of shoreline, or camp year-round within its 1,800 acres of protected forests—many of the area’s campsites offer paved tracks for RVs, picnic pavilions, electric hookups, and bathhouses.

Amerson River Park

Camp near the high bluffs of Amerson River Park to enjoy pristine views of the river and its tree-lined banks, then head out to kayak, canoe, or float downriver. Seven miles of trails offer scenic views of the park's meadows, forests, and marshes, too. Although no camping is allowed within the park, there are plenty of campsites nearby for tenting or RVing, as well as rustic and fully furnished cabin rentals.

When to go

Macon offers fun year-round, with peak camping between April and October, when weather allows for a more diverse range of outdoor activities. Though some campgrounds shut down for winter, many remain open with basic amenities such as restrooms and water. It’s also possible to find cabin rentals and RV parks that offer year-round accommodations near Macon’s most popular recreation areas.
