A little bit about our property: This property has been in the family for multiple generations. Our Old Family Farm has been an agricultural farm, a cattle farm, and now is a tree farm and nature preserve. Our primitive campground offers mixture of open land, young timber, ancient hardwood, fishing ponds, spring heads, and streams. We even have a small section of swampland. We practice an active controlled burn program and almost always have some freshly burned areas that are fairly clean of vegetation - as well as several areas with fresh regrowth. It is not uncommon to come across Deer sheds and other interesting finds when taking a walk. If You love nature and are interested in Primitive camping, you can also enjoy a dark sky experience in several of our open areas. According to some our astronomer guests, our night skies are mapped as the darkest skies around, east of the Mississippi River, with the exception of one other campground located east of us. Chances are that your Children may see stars that they have never viewed before. When was the last time you stepped out into your yard, looked up, and clearly saw the Milky Way? Learn more about this land: Apparently, we are not meeting the expectations of everyone coming to camp with us. In order to prevent further disappointment, we have added the following paragraphs. We do have several Glamping Sites in the works and hope to have at least one of them available sometimes early next year. Currently we only have a very limited number of primitive campsites that are easily accessible by passenger cars. We Are A Primitive Campground. We offer only a limited number of camp sites that are developed to convenience. We have many awesome spots, but some may require a small to moderate amount of time to clean and dress up for your comfort.  A simple cutting tool, such as a machete or ax, will make short and quick work out of your campsite prep. Murchison Farm has served in many different farming capacities, throughout generations of stewards. It's many operations have included row crops, cattle production, goat herds, horses, chicken and turkey production, as well as Tree farming. We are currently operating as a Tree Farm, Wildlife Preserve/Reserve, and Primitive Campground - in that order of priority. If you like clear wide-open areas, you should plan your camping trip for fall, winter, spring, and early summer. Because of our intense controlled burn schedule, you will find the farmland extremely lush and full of botanical growth - during the summer months. Grass, bushes, vines, low lying tree limbs, and a variety of other plants flourish to the point that some areas of the property appear overgrown and unkept. Not much else could be further from the truth. In fact, the massive growth can largely be attributed to all of the nutrients released from the burn process. Much of the lower plant growth is consumed, from our burn activity, and easily available for new growth. During other periods of the year, the same little area may consist largely of bare soil spotted with new green growth. There is an abundance of deadwood and broken limbs available around the farm for campfires, if you would like to pick it up. This includes firewood sometimes left by previous campers. Please do not cut down any living trees or shrubs. Primitive Camping may not be for everyone! I suggest that you take the Name, into account, and do a little research into the Actual Practice.  We offer some campsites which can be easily accessed with cars, but many may require 4-wheel drive, or low hanging branches which may scratch your vehicle. If You are looking for an orderly and well-groomed commercial Campground, Our Primitive Campground may not be for you.  Pitch your tent in one of our beautiful grass covered fields, secluded and private retreats, or under some ancient old trees, and enjoy access to 263 acres of pure nature. You can go fishing, swimming, hiking, or sit back and enjoy the sounds of nature on this farm out in the country.  You can even go wading in a beautiful creek.  Get off the beaten path, and maybe even turn your phone off for a couple of days... .  Secluded, yet conveniently located near major attractions - starting within a 35-minute drive. We support our Veterans and Active Duty Personell whenever possible. As a small token of our appreciation, we offer them a 50% discount. Please message me for your promo code before booking. We offer special programs for qualifying groups, including Boy Scouts, Church Youth Groups, Family and other events. Most are very low cost or free. You are encouraged to ask about them if you are interested. PLEASE REMEMBER, MURCHISON FARM IS A PRIVATELY OWNED CAMPGROUND. Please DO NOT TAKE ANYTHING AWAY THAT YOU DID NOT BRING IN - with the exception of any extra items you may have purchased through Hipcamp.   Sit back and relax, go exploring, and/or do some peaceful fishing..

Come pitch a tent or hang your hammock between the beautiful hardwoods. We currently have primitive tent camping that can easily fit 4-5 tents or hammock camping. 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!

Weekend Trip to Murchison Farm's Primitive Camping
We were in a bit of a bind and needed last minute camping. We found Anthony’s place on Hipcamp about an hour north and were so thankful it had instant booking! Anthony also messaged us within 10 minutes to help coordinate directions as well as meeting us to show up to camp, despite it being pretty late. He led us to a beautiful and huge, empty green field tucked away in forest where we parked our RV for the night. Anthony showed us where we could find good wood and allowed us to make a fire right by our camp. The stars were exceptionally bright, even in a cloudy sky. Overall it was a beautiful place to camp even in the winter and I’m sure even more beautiful during more lush seasons. The property is extensive with a lake and woods, giving ample space and opportunity to spread out and bask in quiet nature. We 100% recommend this place and will certainly be back the next time we are passing through. Thank you Anthony!

We came here primarily for stargazing and the location was ideal. Anthony met us at the front of the property and showed us the best location to set up our telescope. I cannot comment on any other amenities because we just stay there for a few hours with the telescope but overall I would come back if I had the chance.

I was extremely happy camping at Anthony's farm. I'm planning to go back again. I haven't been challenged bushcrafting in a long time. I like primitive camping, with tents. Anthony has a diamond in the ruff, meaning he is working to expand camping experiences, like glamming, group camping and R.V. hook ups. As such a few things to take I to account before booking. The roads on the farm are passable dirt , but have low hanging trees and big ruts in spots. If your vehicle is pristine and you are O. C.D. On its looks, don't bring it. Phrases like primitive, ruffing it, bushcraft should be a warning. If you don't prepare for potable water, sanitation, personal hygiene ( toilet) then your Walmart option is Greenvile, 40 miles round trip. R.V.ers should be self contained for boondocking. I liked the option of fishing I caught large mouth bass, catch and released. Hiking the roads on the farm is also fun. Depending on your camping style this may not be the fit for most campers, but if you like the primitive, hands on challenge like I do, you will not be disappointed. Thank you.

Murchison Farm is exactly what I was looking for in a camping experience and more. Anthony is very nice, responsive and welcoming. The land is private, heavily wooded and has all kinds of primitive camping locations. Any car can access it but I recommend going 4x4 as that was how I found my chosen camping spot, down a wooded trail and up a hill. (Protip: bring snippers in case you want to trim back trail overgrowth.) I felt safe and will very likely be camping there in the future for a longer duration.

This was a perfect place for a quick overnight camp after kayaking on the Coosa river at Wetumpka, AL (about 12 minute drive). Campsite overlooking the creek was nice and included a fire pit. The county road was about a quarter mile away so you could hear a car passing every so often but you couldn't see them. Very private. I would stay there again.

Absolutely amazing site especially considering they just had severe weather and not even a 2 miles up the rd a tornado came through. Rocky provided a fool-proof fire set up, maintained and level site, saw we were a little confused from our headlights and came out and guided us in. He could charge double and we’d still come back!

Weekend Trip to Kick Back Ranch and Event Center
We had a two week trip planned in our campervan, with a multiple day stop in the Montgomery area at the midpoint of our trip and so decided to book three nights in Wagon Wheel Suite III of the Kickback Ranch in Ramer. We’re SO glad we stayed at this peaceful spot! We were the only ones staying in the cottage/cabin area, so we seemed to have this beautiful part of the property to ourselves. The suite is a stand-alone building with a kitchenette (full stove, fridge and sink), full bath and sleeping/living open space that included a queen and bunk beds. There is a very nice balcony off the back of the suite, which overlooks one of the ponds on the property. The suite accommodations were very comfortable, the ranch staff super friendly and we found it so convenient to be able to do our laundry two buildings away from our suite. During our April stay the grounds were peaceful and relaxing, while also including a spacious dog area for exercising our pooches! On the last day of our stay we brought our van to the RV area to dump our grey water and fill our water tank. The RV area is clean, level and the gravel surface is well kept. It seemed to be quite a lively and popular place for many to stay. We highly recommend the Kickback Ranch, less than half an hour from many of the sites in Montgomery!

I had some last minute free time to go camping and Rocky’s site was a perfect fit. It was fairly close to home and a fantastic value. Rocky was super nice. He had the fire pit, wood, and a trash bag all set to go. I had a very enjoyable stay. I felt very safe. There was minimal animal or road noise at night. I will definitely be back.

The best camping in Selma To Montgomery National Historic Trail, AL guide

Overview

About

The march from Selma to Montgomery in Alabama marked a turning point in the civil rights movement. The 54-mile march to the capital was a nonviolent demonstration to bring attention to voting rights for people of color. Five months after the march, President Lyndon Johnson signed the Voting Rights Act.

Start your tour of this historic trail in Selma at the visitor's center. The center is at the foot of the Edmund Pettus Bridge. It gives you an introduction as to what to expect along the historic trail. The bridge was where the marchers left Selma. On Sunday, March 7, 1965, Alabama state troopers savagely beat and bloodied many of the 500 marchers on the bridge.

Organizers of the march, including Dr. Martin Luther King, expected the violent response. Two weeks later, on March 21, another march occurred. This time, police weren't allowed to interfere due to a court's ruling. Over the course of five days, some of them in the chilly rain, thousands of marchers walked along State Highway 80 to the capital.

Today, you can stand on the Edmund Pettus Bridge. Imagine the chaos of Bloody Sunday. On one side of the bridge stood 500 marchers. On the other side were dozens of state troopers. The marchers continued to walk even though they feared for their lives.

Then, follow the historic trail signs on Highway 80 to Montgomery. Interpretive signs and centers along the way describe what happened during the march. Regular events and programs also help bring the significance of the Selma march to light.

Campsites in the area put you close to the path of history. Both Selma and Montgomery themselves have other sites to see if you're a history buff.
