Opening September 1st for the 2026 camping season! Three years ago our multi-generational family decided to go on an adventure. We had talked about moving to the woods for years, but finally decided to turn our dreams into reality. After hiking through what felt like every property for sale over 100 acres in North Georgia, North Carolina, and Tennessee, we finally found the perfect spot. Why do we call our property Whippoorwill Woods? Did you know that whippoorwills don’t nest in trees? They lay their eggs on the ground in the forest. They’re birds that love camping! As soon as we heard the whippoorwills start singing in the spring, we knew it was the perfect name. We’re so excited to share our property with campers who love nature as much as we do. We specifically set up the campsites to give as much privacy as possible. We hope you’ll come visit and soak up the bird songs, the wind in the trees, and the beautiful sunsets over the mountains. We have 20 acres of savannah grassland full of native plants and wildflowers and over 80 untouched acres full of awesome rock formations and creeks with waterfalls available for you to hike. There's a gorgeous view overlooking the Cumberland Plateau and the Sherwood Valley. Experienced and beginner campers are welcome! We live on one side of the property, so we’re available to assist (setting up tents for the first few times is no joke!) or we’re happy to give you as much space and solitude as you need. We have three campsites available in the native savannah grassland. We have a porta-potty available, but you'll need to bring your water with you. If you have any questions, or if there’s anything we can do to help, don’t hesitate to ask! We look forward to your visit! The Jansohn and Combs Families

Escape the noise and discover a private riverside retreat beneath mature oaks along the Tallapoosa River in West Georgia. Moss & Sons welcomes one registered group at a time to slow down, enjoy the wooded setting, and spend meaningful time together. This is generally a shallow stretch of the Tallapoosa River. Our family usually fishes by wading upstream and downstream to reach different spots when conditions allow. Water depth varies with rainfall and the season, and low water can limit fishing directly from the campsite's bank. Please ask us about current conditions before booking if fishing is your main reason for visiting. The river is natural and unmonitored. Water level, current, mud, debris, weather, and water quality can change quickly, especially after rain. There is no designated swimming area, lifeguard, water-quality testing, shuttle, guide, watercraft rental, route monitoring, or rescue service. Guests must evaluate current conditions, directly supervise children near the water, and use properly fitted life jackets whenever appropriate. Amenities and fire rules vary by the specific site reserved. Campfires are permitted only when the booked site allows them, only in its designated fire ring, and only when current restrictions and conditions permit. Our family is grateful to share this place with guests who value quiet, stewardship, and the beauty of GOD's creation.
