This was a great choice for our first hipcamp. Ralph is a great host and goes out of his way to make sure guests have everything they need. Kept us supplied with firewood the entire stay. Common house and bathrooms were always clean. Would definitely recommend.

It was nice having the mountain view as we were enjoying the cozy fire on site #1. I would definitely recommend site #1 from the other 3 sites. Also the host Stephen was really nice and quick to answer our messages and he even helped us jump start our car the next morning.

You are definitely in the mountains now! shelter is hand crafted from all rough sawn locally sourced wood from the site or from Fannin County forests.

Highly recommended. The camp setup is great for both tent or RV camping. The view was amazing especially during fall with the foliage. The area is calm and peaceful. They have a portalet and it is clean and smells nice. There is also a free firwewood and wifi. The camping site is also near sugarloaf ocoee state park and smoky mountain. We would definitely come back to camp again.

Ralph has put together the perfect camping spot. Falling asleep by a babbling creek beside the fire - under the stars - was the best way I can think of to end a day. We climbed the hill out back to the top where a picnic table was waiting. The smokeless fire pit was so neat.

Weekend Trip to Rest And Relax Retreat

I had a great time, resting and relaxing in my tent! Ralph, the host, was extremely accommodating. The views were absolutely spectacular! The fresh air was great! Waking up in the morning, drinking coffee next to the creek! Resting at night, creekside, beside a campfire was glorious! The common area was extremely clean and inviting. Being able to go over and take a hot shower, while recharge my power station was great! Thank you so much Ralph! I will be back very soon and… I recommend this place easily, to anyone who just wants to rest, relax, and enjoy the peace and quiet of nature. Go, and recharge your body, mine and soul!

Ralph is the perfect host. He provided us with free wood and had everything set up for us when we got in. Once we were settled he checked in to make sure we were pleased with the place, which we were completely! He walked his dog and checked the perimeter trail at night and keeps a quiet, clean, and peaceful place. We have camped many places but I will say this has to be my favorite. The bath house is the nicest I’ve ever seen. 2 full baths and an awesome living space to hang out in. We absolutely loved it here. Lots of privacy and right on the river. We got to sleep hearing the river flow all night. Perfect camping trip

the spacious shelter sits across the creek from the main camping area and in the middle of the 12 acre heavily wooded site

5 nights at Your Toccoa River Cove!

This is such a gorgeous and relaxing spot. The cabin is clean and roomy and the outhouse is pretty nice lol! One of the best parts is that the dogs got to be off leash around the site. It was a perfect way to spend a few chilly October night. We had everything we needed: a fire pit to keep warm, cozy blankets in the cabin, and forest sounds to keep us company. I highly recommend giving this spot a try. George is a phenomenal host who was available immediately when I called him with a question. 10/10 would come back!!

This was the best spot I have camped at in years. Wide open fields full of deer and turkeys while all alone on far enough away from other people yet close enough to go into a small town for any missing or needed supplies. The area was well kept, had a string light setup, a nice fire pit, and lots of scenery. 10/10 visit, would and will definitely return in the future. Also of note was the host answers calls even as late as 9-10pm and is pleasantly cordial.

Very large and clean site. Creek is beautiful and noisy! Quiet and remote, the only traffic is the locals who live in this small valley. It’s about 20mins to grocery store and 1 hour to GSM. Road is easy for a SUV. Road is narrow and you have beware of others coming towards you, but pull offs abound and everyone is courteous. Larger RVs beware!

2 nights at Magical Mountain Resorts

We loved our stay at the Magical Resorts Groundskeeper Cabin! Mary truly thought of every detail when designing and decorating each space. The beautiful stained glass, cozy bedding, fire torches, and even the dishes made us feel like we were actually in Hagrid’s cabin! Even if you’re not a Harry Potter fan, the cabin is simply beautiful and so thoughtfully done. We have two younger children who absolutely loved it—they spent hours on the swings and the play area by the water and enjoyed feeding and petting the animals. One evening we visited downtown Haynesville and had a great meal at a local restaurant. We probably could have spent more time exploring the town, but we just loved relaxing in nature. Mary was so kind and quick to respond to all of my messages. We will definitely be back!

I stayed in this site for a few days, and the cabin site a few days. Both are gorgeous! The terraced design of the site is charming. The directions were accurate, the road easily navigable in a civic, and Brian made me feel very welcomed. Close to beautiful hikes and scenic drives. The natural beauty, privacy, and quiet here is far beyond what you'll find in a normal campground.

We booked a campsite at another place and when people started acting shady we decided to leave for our safety and found this spot. We arrived after dark which I try not to do but we had nowhere else to go and with short notice Ralph was extremely welcoming and understanding of our situation. This experience was one of a kind. I've used hipcamp all over the country and this experience was something we will never forget. The campsites are spaced out along a beautiful piece of land with firewood, zero gravity chairs, hammock, picnic tables, canopy and amazing common area with very clean bathrooms that had showers with hot water! In the short time he had to get prepared for us he had everything ready for us and gave us a tour of where everything was. Ralph took us down to the site, got our fire going, gave us a lantern, and set up our chairs so we could set up camp again that evening. He even had towels and rags waiting for us to take a shower the next morning! If you want to truly rest and relax this man's goal is to make it happen for you. He has put a lot of effort into this place and it shows from the moment you arrive to when you leave. Don't pass this place up if you are looking for somewhere to camp in the area especially if you've been camping for several day's already like us and in need of a shower! We will be coming back for years to come and appreciate Ralph sharing this great place with us!

Our property is one of a kind. We are on high ground, which means the bugs are not bad, and the views are amazing! We have amazing views of the Sequatchie Valley.

The creeks have incredible rocks throughout, and are somewhat challenging places to hike, but absolutely beautiful to hike up and down. We have over 20 miles of roads and trails that are amazing for walking, hiking, and horseback riding. There are almost endless areas close to us for ATV riding, so we ask our guests to ride off property to keep our place peaceful. We don’t mind noise from a happy gathering or people playing but we try and keep machine noise down to a minimum. We have places for any type of camping, from backpack camping to Motorhomes, but at the moment we do not have hookups and limited on gravel rv areas, but many off gravel areas. The property has every type of wildlife Tennessee has to offer. Please be kind to our wildlife and don’t feed them. We have extensive cave systems from natural to old coal mine caves.

My wife and I initially made this site for our own RV use, but we want to share it for others to enjoy and also to help finance our constant improvements. The original house that I grew up in is still located on the property but is currently uninhabitable (for now). My fondest memories of the property are of playing and catching crawdads in the creek that located on the property when I was a kid and riding horses and flying kites in the fields. I am working hard to restore this property to the way I remember it and trying to make it enjoyable for those that come to visit. A majority of the property is still being used as a hay field during the summer months and two to three times a year the hay is usually harvested.

Gee Creek Campground

I'm a Whitewater boater, typically my motivation for camping in this area. My review of this campground is two fold, 1) it's a great spot and perfect for the river. It's beautiful and I have enjoyed several nights non the past here 2) just don't even think about cracking open a beer or adult beverage at this campground. One, it's a state campground and a big no no but the rangers have historically been all up in people's business at this campground. If they hear the "click" of a beer can that's probable cause for them to search your campsite. Just be warned, be smart and if you've decided to camp here don't break the rules!
