45 private acres on our homestead for you to roam. Eight eclectic sites to choose from ranging from primitive camping to a lovely log cabin. All except the log cabin lovingly built by the owner, loaded with creative touches from up-purposed materials. Featuring: * Two gorgeous waterfalls. Each of our stay-sites are located within about 100 yards of Fifty-foot tall Miller’s Falls. * Two large caves at the end of a short, but rugged hike. * A fairy Village filled with Hollow Oak Tree Fairy cottages and bio-luminescent trees that glow after dark. Magical. * Three acres for group camping centered on a well-equipped, covered outdoor kitchen. * Peaceful Meditation Retreats at the Outdoor Kitchen under brain-wave enhancing satellite dishes. * Certified Hypnotherapy Disclaimer: The flow of the waterfall is subject to fluctuations in temperature, seasonal droughts, & rain fall. The most favorable seasons for waterfall flow are fall, winter & early spring. We came to this magical place to found a self-reliant, homesteading eco-community when I retired from corporate life in 2006. It's called the Village on Sewanee Creek, named for the creek 800 feet below the bluff where we are located. I traveled the world as a senior executive for Baskin-Robbins, Dunkin' Donuts, Papa Johns, Blockbuster, 7-Eleven and other retail franchises, making the world safe for Pizza, Ice Cream, Pancakes Video Rentals and American convenience. And I was ready for something more fufilling. I scouted for a place of exquisite natural beauty and I found it here. I bought way too much land just before the real estate bust and learned how to turn a nice fortune into a very small one. I faced challenges and had lots of fun. Now I want to share our experience. If you love nature and the outdoors, this is the best place to celebrate it.

Amazing set-up!! Beautiful location and scenery. I stayed in the glamping tent and it was clean, comfortable, and safe. I went by myself with my dog and she loved having all the space to run around outside the tent. We also hiked down to the waterfall and a little further, and I know there were plenty of other trails nearby too. A perfect getaway! Grant and Becky were super helpful and very sweet! 10/10 recommend booking here.

I loved the stay at the Galmping tent. It was an amazing, large area that was mostly private. Having the provided cooking area was extremely helpful. The views were great I found plenty of trails to wander and follow around. Grant, the host, was very social and thorough in providing information.

A friend and I were looking to take the dogs for a quiet retreat to relax and enjoy nature for a few days. The Glamper was exactly what we were looking for. The falls weren't there when we stayed, but it was still stunningly beautiful and peaceful, overlooking a cliff where the falls normally are. Be sure to check out the fairy village just a short walk away after dark when it lights up. Grant and Becky were amazing hosts and provided us with any assistance we needed.

My husband and I booked The Glamper for our Honeymoon and it was perfect! We were right next to the waterfall and could see it from the yurt! There is a lot to do in the area. Tons of waterfalls and places to hike! I definitely loved being able to unplug. Take a dip in the waterfalls, go to the nearby bakery and admire The Lords Creation!

1 night at Peaceful Hollow Farm

We such a wonderful time staying at the Peaceful Hollow Farm glamping tent for a night! The tent was on a level platform and there was even a partitioned area for the potty, covered with a screen. The cookware, double burner, and electricity that were provided were greatly appreciated and the city water was a nice surprise. We made s’mores at the campfire and relaxed on the Adirondack chairs for a while in the evening. The next morning, we did the short hike nearby with our little ones and we had fun searching for, picking, and eating the ripe wild blackberries. We thoroughly enjoyed the farm tour, meeting the cashew goats, llamas, chickens, etc. That was a special treat for the family! Darla and Bon were great and we felt at home. We would definitely come back to do the longer hikes and greet the adorable animals, especially the cashmere goats again 😊

My stay at Darla’s was amazing! The glamping tent was clean and cozy, with everything I needed, and the goats and llamas were adorable. Darla was extremely friendly and helpful in giving me rides up and down the hill, even in the pouring rain! There is a beautiful hiking trail from her property that was the best part of my visit. I would absolutely stay again.

Weekend Trip to Peaceful Hollow Farm

We had such a great night/morning at Peaceful Hollow Farm! We found that my old car wasn’t quite equipped to make it to the campsite on the gravel drive but Bob and Darla were happy to assist us to the site and made sure we felt right at home! The tent and site itself is well equipped with all you need to enjoy your camping stay (cooking utensils, a percolator for coffee, some board games, a lantern, etc) and Darla even made sure to leave us a heated blanket in the tent since it ended up being in the 30s on the night we stayed - this was such a considerate touch! The bed was comfortable, the fire pit was lovely in the evening (they included the firewood for us, which was so nice!), and the ambiance was so relaxing. We are already planning to visit again and will definitely be adding the farm tour to our stay next time! These hosts are so kind and helpful and just overall lovely people. Thank you, Bob and Darla!
