Mt. Doom's Haunted Woodlands

5 sites · RVs, Tents200 acres · Hanceville, AL

Mt. Doom has over 200 acres of woodlands that have not been cut in nearly a century. We play paintball on a small part of the property on weekends and you can join in! However, 90% of the area is totally virgin timberland and you could walk all day without seeing another living soul. Lots of trails and roadways to hike and views off the mountains at every turn. Less than 1.5 mi. from Mulberry River with whitewater rapids or swimming access. Some say spirits roam these woods but not in a malevolent way, just strange noises, sudden winds and leaves moving or the feeling of being watched. Awesome view of the constellations far from ground light clutter and an eerie quietness prevails. Crows will follow your movements and talk about you right to your face! An unforgettable destination stop that you will mark on your map for every visit you take to Alabama.Learn more about this land:Over 200 acres of undeveloped southern woodlands surrounded by corporate owned timber lands that are fully accessible for hiking or mountain biking. Campsite overlooks 20 miles of unobstructed view from a grassy point on the last mountains in the Appalachian Mountain chains. Very isolated and quiet with good view of constellations at night. Miles of woodland roadways and trails where you won't see another person but might catch a glimpse of any number of southern woodland creatures. A little noisy on weekends as we operate a paintball/airsoft field on part of the property, but otherwise you'd be the only people in the woods for miles around. Paintball "extra" available if you'd like to try a survival game while you are here!

There’s 60 acres of hills for hiking a peaceful creek for meditation or just stick your feet in! A beautiful bamboo grove where we plan to build a camping platform in the very near future and you’ll be able to sleep in tha bamboo forest! We’ve come a long way in the last year, we have platforms, tents we can set up as glampers for those that love the idea but don’t want to have to set it all up. There’s several old buildings and unfinished projects left behind from my father we have a series of small cabins we will be building with them over the next 2 years it’ll be called “Boho Bottom”. We also host events, so far they are few and small but so much fun!! There is currently one communal bathroom with several more due to be built in the next year or so. As campers come the profit will help with future site development. Look forward to more updates as things develop!! We look forward to camp with you!

Timberline Glamping Huntsville

Just minutes from downtown Huntsville, Monte Sano State Park, rises more than 1,600 feet above sea level. In Spanish, Monte Sano means “Mountain of Health” and is known for spectacular views, fresh mountain air, fall colors, and mineral springs. Guests can enjoy 20 miles of hiking trails, beautiful Japanese Gardens, a Planetarium and Lodge, and all of the attractions, shops, and restaurants of the one-and-only, “Rocket City” Huntsville, Alabama. Combining luxury and the great outdoors, our extra spacious completely furnished Safari Tents give large families or groups of friends the extra space they need to glamp in comfort. What Is Glamping? At Timberline Glamping, We believe that luxury and comfort should not be sacrificed when spending time outside. You will have a very comfortable bed with proper linens. You will have places to sit, places to eat, and places to charge your phone. You will still be able to wake up and have a fresh cup of coffee from a Keurig Coffee Maker. We do provide heaters in the winter and air conditioners in the summer, but remember this is a tent with a canvas exterior. The heating and cooling will be just enough to take the edge off, but will not have the same effect of a home. Most Importantly, you will have a chance to re-imagine the world around you as you make special memories with family and friends. If you are on the fence and have more questions, check out our FAQ page or please reach out to us and ask questions. It is better that you know before you go!
