Spent a week there recently as a stopping off point over the holidays to be able to visit family. Very quiet, and loved the chickens~ Farm fresh eggs if I wanted, took a walk down the trail to the bluff at sunset ( must do) and loved the hostel. I'm not much for primitive camping but it seemed like plenty of places, fire rings, picnic tables and the shed( common area) was cool to hang out in. There is a big firepit and sit around benches outside one of the hostels so its good for visiting with other folks or friends. Sydney and Nick answered all of my questions and gave me the low down on the area, which is a beautiful part of TN. Its not far from Scottsboro AL, home of the Unclaimed Baggage store, which I took my GF to as a surprise day trip. I will be back at some point when my travels take me back through the area.
