I have a beloved Scottish Highland cow named Genia and she is joined with two mini bulls and two mini cows. Various numbers of Nigerian Dwarf goats join them in the pasture. There are also a few chickens. Small garden beds and a fruit orchard are on the property and I usually have at least a half dozen projects of one sort or another going on. Several acres are wooded and there is ample space for a nature trail that I try to keep maintained. Several of the usual types wildlife can be seen. Are you an artist or a writer? This is a great place for comtemplation and inspiration. I myself have 40 years experience as an art teacher and professor. If you would like to have a mini workshop, let me help. Water is available not far from the campsites. There is also a portable pop up potty/shower tent (with bucket and seat) available.

Description: The property is 75 feet wide and stretches 210 feet back from the road. Shaded with trees, flat, plenty of room for pitching a tent. The driveway clearing large enough for a car plus camper or RV. I don't have dimensions, but use the pictures of my Jeep for reference. For now, you must decide if your rig will fit.

There is a fire ring and a few chairs to enjoy socializing or plenty of trees to hang a hammock and relax.

Both options sit alongside Sofkahatchee creek. We have 15 acres of untouched forest to wonder through and help you reconnect with mother nature. It’s my favorite spot for meditation and grounding. The sky is amazingly dark around here and stargazing would be at the top of my list of things I love about the property. This area is full of wildlife. Raccoons, deer, turkey, possums, armadillo, snakes, and even bears. I haven’t personally ran in to any bears but they have been sited. So, who knows what you will befriend while in the wild. The camping areas are very private. It’s part of a 50 acre lot that has recently been cleared and in the process of reseeding and preparing for a pond and farm life. So, sorry if you run in to anything that isn’t picturesque but your camp site will be beautiful and peaceful. AMENITIES: We want your stay to be as comfortable as possible!

The host, Sam, was super accommodating and even drove out to us to guide us to camp when we got there later on our arrival!

It was absolutely perfect, from start to finish. Well, the finish sucked because we had to leave. We pitched our tent next to the pond, had a shaded seating area next to our fire pit. Bathroom and shower were a short walk. Fishing was peaceful and the jon boat was super fun to go out on and fish. Super quiet. Plenty of firewood, FREE. Early check in and late check out was lovely. We didnt feel rushed at all. If you forget anything (like leaving your day 1 dinner in your refrigerator at home), there is a small grocery store as well as a dollar general within 5 minutes. All around an awesome camp site! I want to go back, SOON! thank you for sharing your piece of tranquility with us!

The best camping in Horseshoe Bend National Military Park, AL guide

Overview

About

Yoda said, "Wars make not one great." Yet that's what happened to Maj. Gen. Andrew Jackson at the Battle of Horseshoe Bend in Alabama. His 3,300 men attacked 1,000 members of the Red Stick Creek tribe, led by Chief Menawa. The battle ended the Creek Wars and made Jackson a national hero.

Unfortunately, 800 Red Stick warriors died during the battle. It was March 27, 1814. Jackson, also a hero of the War of 1812, would go on to be president. (He's the guy on the $20 bill.) The end of the Creek Wars meant 23 million acres became United States territory.

The battlefield itself features an open field surrounded by trees. The name comes from a horseshoe-like bend in the Tallapoosa River.

A visitor center tells you everything you need to know about the battle. You find out what led to the Creek Wars and some history of the Creek tribe. There's also a section on the War of 1812.

The battlefield holds special events twice a year. In March there's a living history event that depicts both sides of the conflict. This occurs in conjunction with the anniversary of the battle. You can tour authentic Creek, Cherokee, and U.S. military camps from the time period. Five months later in August there are living history demonstrations and guest speakers.

A 2.8-mile nature trail takes you through wooded areas and by the river. During the summer months, this jaunt offers shade from the hot summer sun. A 3-mile paved road lets you enjoy the scenery from your car.

Nearby campsites let you experience a bit of what Jackson's men and the Creek warriors went through.
