Wild Violet Gardens is a 5-acre urban homestead that is home to 5 cats, 2 dogs, and 7 humans. We have a garden where we grow a variety of annual veggies and perennials herbs and flowers, lots of open space, and a small creek running along one edge of the property. We are a 2 minute drive from our neighborhood library, 15 minutes from beautiful Turkey Creek Nature Preserve for swimming and wildlife), 15 minutes from the Avondale neighborhood of Birmingham (a young, buzzing area known for its trendy coffee shops and craft breweries, live music venues, and eclectic mix of restaurants) and 20 minutes to Sidewalk Cinema in downtown Birmingham.Choose your location and drive right up to your car, van, or small camper site. There is plenty of space for additional tents or vehicle camping as well. You will have access to an indoor shared bathroom. There is no power at the site, but you can use an outlet near the house if you need to charge devices. Explore the wild prairie, gardens and the creek while you're here, too! You'll surely get visited by 1 or 4 sweet dogs or 3 kitties. Our property has the feel of being out in the country but is on the edge of an urban/suburban neighborhood. Our property is adjacent to a gas station. Some areas of the ground are uneven or with obstacles, so take caution when walking or driving the property. We advise that you stay on the cut paths to avoid ant beds, ground nesting bees or other critters.

Lovely little spot tucked away in the city. Host was very kind. Dogs were a bonus. We will be back in the future when we need a quick camping spot near bham.

We really enjoyed our night at Wild Violet Gardens. It's a cozy field, the golden rod were in bloom when we were there, and the hosts were very nice. Their flush vermicompost toilet in the geodesic dome is also very ingenious and surprisingly charming!
