31mi from East Ridge · 4 sites · Tents, RVs
Exclusive Mountain Top camping with 4 sites. Well off the beaten path but close enough to US HWY 64 to provide convenient access to local restaurants, bars, and of course rafting. Smith Mountain Camping is located just outside of the Cherokee National Forest where there are hundreds of miles of hiking trails, forest roads perfect for Dual Sport motorcycle riding and overloading. Hunting and fishing opportunities abound in the southeast's largest wilderness area within sight of your campsite. We have 2 full hookup sites available for long term camping as well as 2 power and water capable sites that are perfect for the overlaners looking to explore the area. Bring your rig and your toys and enjoy the Cherokee National Forest! The road to our property is gravel and has some steep sections. We have had coaches and trailers of all sizes to our campground but be aware that the road is gravel with some steep climbs. We recommend any vehicle towing a trailer be all wheel drive or 4X4 and if your trailer is over 30 feet please contact us directly.

3. Solace Farm Homestead

(147)
38mi from East Ridge · 3 sites · Tents, RVs
We raise Scottish Highland cattle, goats, sheep, and alpacas on 90 acres of reclaimed coal mine land. We are using the animals and permaculture techniques to repair this land to a vibrant, productive place. We also have ducks, beehives, gardens and a 2200 square foot hoop-house, and we homeschool 3 boys as well. We have a farm store with a variety of soaps and personal care products, as well as farm products such as homegrown and ground cornmeal, granola made with our duck eggs, herbal teas and herbs, tanned sheepskins, etc. The farm tours are 1-1.5 hours, the "Junior Tour" is largely meet-the-animals, but also a stroll through the hoop-house, and whatever else may be available (ducklings, bottle feeding goat kids or alpaca crias, etc). The "Sustainability Tour" is with Caleb, and - based on your interests - is focused more on how we graze the animals, rainwater collection, solar set-up, farm management, etc. We gear this tour heavily toward individual interest, basically Q & A about what you want to know about small farm/sustainable/off-grid living.
