Come primitive camp on our homestead!
We’re located on Lookout Mountain in Fort Payne, AL just 2 Miles (3 minute drive) from Desoto State Park!
We own 20.76 acres. Half of our property is pasture and where our homestead is located. We have a small hobby farm with 2 mini Jersey cows, a donkey, a bunch of goats, 2 babydoll sheep, and mini pig named Cupcake. Our campers are welcome to love on and feed our farm animals and learn a little bit about what it’s like on a homestead. The other half of our property is all woods, mostly large oak trees. This is where our campsites are located. We have 2 creeks running through the woods, the bigger of the two is Hurricane Creek. We also have wild blackberries and a variety of mushrooms in the summer, great for foraging. We also have a tire swing and a small zip line for kids near the campsites.
Interested in our area? There is so much to offer. Want to go for a swim, a hike, go fishing, and look at a beautiful waterfall? Little River Canyon Falls Park is less than 9 miles away (14 minute drive) and is our favorite place to swim in the summer! If you’re interested in horseback riding and even more hiking trails, Shady Grove Horse Ranch in Mentone is 8 miles away (16 minute drive).
Come camp with us and enjoy what our area has to offer!
Loved it here. Took my pup and asked everyone there if it was OK if he was off leash, as he's super friendly and knows recall. Everything was fine until a family showed up and saw he was off leash. Got very offended and kept glaring at us even when I leashed him, to the point where I got uncomfortable and had to leave. Everything else was great.
This place is beautiful the hiking trails are filled with scenery full of animal life and t hee water is so clear and refreshing I have lots more to explore here so stay tuned
It has a very nice feel to it, and it's sad I can't fully enjoy the full experience due to my disability, but I do commend the hidden trail and the ACTUAL trails. Pulled off a 2 mile hike while my niece and nephew played in the pool. Would also like to point out that disrespectful people (to the area, haven't met anyone disrespectful in person thankfully) do make the area somewhat difficult to enjoy since trash isn't picked up. Beautiful scenic routes and very beautiful place for outdoor pics too.
Just moved here from Cali and desperately needed a hiking home-based. Trails arnt that long but there is a stunning creek view and alot of different style terrain. I'm also a climber and there was some really cool rock and boulder formations
Small but nice park. Spent a little over an hour there, walking the water way. There are Trails throughout the wooded area. Will have to check them out the next time. Plenty of parking, bathrooms and pavilion.
