1 night at Less is More

The location of Micro Cabin was very serene, quiet, and beautiful, and the cabin itself was clean and inviting. The short drive up the gravel road lead right to Melissa property with brilliant view of lush ferns and soft green moss. Melissa surely did an excellent job of painting and fitting the cabin with just the right decor - very minimal. The side porch had all one needed for the first morning coffee where I watched the first light of day, and listened to bird song. The whole experience felt rather magical to me. I highly recommend a visit here. To top it all off, Melissa was an excellent hostess having the cabin prepped with all the essentials. I will happily revisit Less is More.

I traveled from California to take my grandkids camping. George was an amazing host!!! He was communicative and flexible. when plans had to change due to medical stuff. The site was well designed and surprisingly well equipped. The camp kitchen had all the basics plus. I have a trailer with all my gear so I was grateful to have all the items forgot readily available. The cabin was bigger than expected. We spent a rainy afternoon playing games and napping. Great combination of convenience and real comping!! We will be back!!!

Weekend Trip to Woodsman at Starr Mountain Retreat

My buddy and I had a great weekend getaway to relax at the Woodsman Cabin at Starr Mountain Retreat on 23 acres in the Cherokee National Forest near Reliance, Tennessee. This place is the real deal. It is quiet, private, and surrounded by woods with that perfect peaceful vibe. The cabin is spotless, well laid out, and seriously comfortable. The queen bed in the main bedroom and the twin beds up in the loft were both very comfortable. They have literally thought of everything. There is a full kitchen, gas fireplace, grill, and all the little details that make it easy. You could literally show up with just a suitcase and feel like you’re checking into a hotel room. No scrambling for basics. They even had an abundance of dry firewood ready, and they thought of the little things like dry kindling in a bucket ready for use. The fire pit served us well for some great evenings chilling out. The owners were responsive, and it really shows in how well the place is set up. We felt that the advertisements for this location actually undersell just how excellent it is. This is a first-class spot in the woods. Already talking about coming back. Highly recommend it for any guys looking for a solid relaxing getaway. Thanks Nola and Brian! 🙌

Absolutely the perfect cabin. The cabin had everything we needed and only needed to bring our clothing and food. Nola has thought of everything for this cabin all the way down to the kindling for the fire. The beds were comfortable and the hot water was hot. The AC worked great and we loved the fire pit and front porch.

We loved this site. It has everything you’d want in a perfect campsite. Horses, running water, a fully stocked kitchen, secure and private bath/shower, creeks and trails, multiple fire pits, cute fluffy kitty, electricity.

Weekend Trip to Cabin and Barn on 20 Peaceful Acres

Very convenient to Lula Lake Land Trust. Having the bathroom/shower was great, and the electricity & “kitchen” at the barn was nice. I’d suggest that you still bring some of your own cookware, rather than assume everything you may want to use will be available. Also maybe bring something large enough to warm up some water, so you can effectively use it to wash dishes; the sink in the barn has only cold water.

3 nights at Cabin and Barn on 20 Peaceful Acres

We had such a relaxing time! The cabin was perfect for the 5 of us and it had all the amenities we needed. We loved the lights around the campsite, and the kids took over the loft area in the cabin! Having a nice bathroom and the kitchen area just enhanced the stay! The highlight was enjoying the sweet kitties that spent time with us! It was a perfect little getaway!

Weekend Trip to Cabin and Barn on 20 Peaceful Acres

A very comfortable camping set up. Quite a lot of space in the woods to ourselves and between outhouses, with a large clearing in the middle for kids to enjoy. Kitchen and dining area under the barn is very well equipped. I didn't need to bring any extra cooking or dining equipment. Took us a little time to figure out the hot water in the shower but it does make a difference when it's on. Lots of products and some toilet paper provided. The wooden cabin was a great set up for sleeping. Very well ventilated and little fairy lights for nice ambiance. We took our air mattresses and sheets and it was like a little camp hotel. There is a road nearby but it's completely silent at night and pretty quiet during the day too. Horses on the property make great scenery. All in all clean and well maintained. Would just recommend taking a bath mat for the shower floor and tea towels for the kitchen for maximum comfort. Host was very easy to contact at any point and very helpful.

Weekend Trip to Raccoon Mountain Caverns and Campground

Quiet cabin in a field. Very close to a playground; kids had a blast gem mining and the cave tour was great! Cabin was clean with most of the supplies we needed for cooking. Would come back again.

4 nights at Downward Dog Lodge

The cabin was wonderful! So secluded and quiet. The hot tub was a big hit. The place was decorated with lovely furniture and there were sweet special touches everywhere! We got fresh flowers and a s’mores kit! It was a wonderfully equipped home.

Weekend Trip to West Preserve

Very nice and quiet spot in the middle of nature. Has a beautiful creek that runs through the middle of everything and sounds so serene. The cabin we stayed at was the bloom and it was a very cozy and quaint, full furnishing including microwave, fridge, A/C / heat, and even running water. The bathhouses were super cool and very rustic with hot water. Would definitely recommend as a stay or stopping through

Fort Mountain State Park Campground

My husband, my dog, and I recently spent a three-day weekend camping at Fort Mountain State Park. We rented a gravel campsite and stayed on the creekside of the camping area at Campsite #22. Our campsite came with running water and electricity, a movable park bench, and a fire pit. We were also very lucky to have gotten one of the only campsites with good sturdy trees that we could use for our Eno hammocks. The bathrooms were always clean and well tended. Each camping area had designated hosts, which I believe were responsible for cleaning the restrooms.

Stick to the Ten Essentials and bring your map and compass. One of my Boy Scout Leaders got lost for several hours after following the wrong trail!

Fort Mountain State Park Campground

There are backcountry hike and bike campsites at this state park, just not in the campground! You do need to check in with the ranger station and get permits, and reserve the campsite in advance. If you're hiking the Gahuti, site #4 at Rock Creek is the best site - more secluded from the trail than the others, plus fast running water to filter. Camped there in May, and it was cold due to altitude. There are fantastic mtn biking trails in this park, and one of the mountain's stellar views is wheel chair accessible. We stayed in cottage #1, and it had all the comforts of home.
