Your host Val has walked away from her life as a tenured graphic design professor for a passion that is probably her true calling. Inspired by travels and a youth immersed in girls scouts, I created this retreat center and camp for the opportunity to relish in nature, put away the phone and get back to craft, conversation, and the basics of life. You'll relish in the quiet and beauty of the rural rolling foothills of Appalachia in mid-south TN. 20 minutes from any town so prepare en route. Route 99 splits the 17 acres with retreat center on one side and an 11.5 acre campground with significant river front property On The Buffalo. This is in Lewis county - of the Lewis and Clark adventurers. The Buffalo River is a class 1 and sometimes 2 river perfect for kayaking. Ask about add on options like a tour and story about the camp and animals or even a pottery lesson or art workshop.

Weekend Trip to Little Creek Ranch in Wayneboro TN

Leona and Little Creek Ranch went above and beyond for our female Scouting America troop! Leona worked with us in advance to find out the age and experience level of all our riders, to ensure they all had an amazing experience! She also took her own time and energy to create a through booklet for our girls and helped them all earn their Horsemanship Merit Badge. I would highly recommend Little Creek Ranch for any scouting troop!

Weekend Trip to Little Creek Ranch in Wayneboro TN

Great little campsite at the top of their property. Leona was a great host and met us as we arrived to give us an overview of the property and campsite. Its the only campsite so you dont have to worry about other campers in site. The kids loved feeding all the farm animals. Added bonus the Buffalo River is right down the street for canoeing or swimming at Crazy Horse Outfitter. Would highly recommend.
