Two 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 this 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 stocked fish pond for catch and release fishing and 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, and one that is a "hike-in and choose your favorite spot in the woods" site. We have a porta-potty available, but if you're hiking in, you'll want to bring some WAG bags 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 most awesome experience for my kids, since the first time they always go back every year!!
It was amazing I went here for a 7th grade trip me and my friends done a lot of fun stuff like canoeing and kayaking
Camp Wesley woods is a great place they do wonderful things for the youth and I do a lot of their tree work and things up there and they are always super nice and super respectful. You really can't go wrong going to camp Wesley woods it's a beautiful place you can get away from Wi-Fi cell phones and all that stuff you're just with friends in the woods can't beat it.
I had a blast! My counselors were amazing! It was a fun environment and I felt God’s love there. This is an amazing place! I am looking forward to going next year!
My great grandchild went last summer n loved it Trinity will return this summer
