Barnett Old Tobacco Farm

1 site · RV18 acres · Murphy, NC
Our Old Tobacco Farm has been in the family for generations, hence "Barnett Road". Currently we just grow organic veggies in our high tunnel greenhouse and the old tobacco fields now are used for hay production and a safe haven for a large herd of deer. Learn more about this land: This site is gravel and level. It is in front of a babbling small creek. We have a pool, apple trees, blueberry bushes and an organic greenhouse on site for your enjoyment. The site is private with robust wifi, water and 30 amp electric. The site is 40 feet in length but could probably work also for up to 50'. Slideouts are fine. There is a picnic table, gas grill, chairs and a firepit beside the site. We live on an 18 acre farm. We recently discovered the joy of traveling the US in an Airstream. When we came home after 6000+ miles, because some of our favorite sites were non-traditional ones, we decided to add a site on our farm. Enjoy the dark skies and quietness of the country. We are 10 minutes from downtown Murphy. There is only a small area of gravel which is the actual site. Everything else to get here is paved.

Melinda C.’s Land

5 sites · RVs, Tents10 acres · Sevierville, TN
Our family has always loved the smokie mountians.  Its so beautiful here and so alone with nature away from town life but not that far.  The skies at night, amazing the sound of the creek and nature lulls you to sleep.  the cool air down by the creek on a hot day is incredible.  The fireflies will astonish you how they glow in the night.  Great fun for kids and adventurer. Campsites are very far apart. The property is almost 10 acres all creek front behind the trees. There's a lot of twist and turns.  You can fish, swim and float the creek.
