Dear Spirit brothers and sisters, greetings with blessings. This 20 acres on beautiful rolling foothills of the Great Smoky mountains is any very private but very easily accessed spot. The whole land is aromatherapy with about 80% of it being cedar trees. There are three little 20 ft ponds. Land borders a small little unmarked old looking half paved half Stone road called , W. Turner Ridge road. The just finished 15 ft diameter TP is made of 8 cedar tree poles. This TV has granted and marble 1 in thick Stone floor. There is a 4 ft dirt circle in the middle for making a fire and the smoke exits out the covered peak. The only picture I can find is when the TP was being built and the marble and granite floor was not installed yet. The TV is in a nice private spot overlooking the neighbors pretty rolling Hill pasture. And on the other side of the TP about 100 ft to the east I have a 30 foot by 30 ft copper tubing pyramid built for meditation and sending out blessings and calming the nervous system. There are 2 picnic tables next to the TP with stone tops. You are welcome to hike all the way around the land. There are several trails cut through the woods. Plus the order of the 20 acres is mostly fenced and Mark with markers on the east side that's not fenced. About 50 ft from the TP is a small 10 ft tent TP that has a hanging bag camping shower and portable toilet. There are two cots in the TP with 4 inch thick foam mattresses. The two cots can be put side by side to sleep next to one another. Sleeps 2 ? The TP is $69 a night. Lake Douglas is only 2 mi away ,on Holt Town road going west. I have a kayak and a blow up raft for two . rent for $20 for half a day, each. There is also a nice sunlight 25 ft Camper here with a bed in the front and a bed in the back the kitchen and bathroom in the middle. Sleeps up to 4. This is a pretty private spot also about 900 ft from the teepee. Camper is $39 a night for 2. Has propane stove top and for heet. & Flushing toilet. Uses my rain water jugs of water to flush. But for #2 there is an outside toilet in woods 50 ft away. Has clothes line also. Teepee and Tiny also have clothes lines. Buckets for hand washing things. Rain water in Barrels provided. Has ice chest. The third rental here is a 10x20 ft story and a half tiny home with two lofts inside. It is about another 250 ft further across the land from the camper. Tiny home has three beds. One bed in each loft on each end, plus a single bed below. One loft has king size bed. Built only 6 years ago. Has kitchen with propane stove top, ice chest small eating table for two or three. With lofting 10-ft ceiling over table area. Bathroom toilet with shower stall in the rear for Spong baths. Also has a covered porch about 4 ft by 6 ft. This is in a nice private spot also with cedar trees on the back side and on the porch side overlooks a couple rolling hills which do you like to travel at the bottom of. Tiny home will sleep up to 6. =$69 W Turner Ridge road dead ends after about 3/4 of a mile after leaving Point Pleasant road. Then becomes a dirt road for about a mile across a small mountain Rd. Therefore this is a good hiking or mountain biking road with a fairly steep 100 ft area of the road. Once it turns to dirt road it is Forest with no homes. I am looking to buy a 12-ft or so Jon boat, but don't yet have it. Coming from interstate 81 that goes north and south on the east side of Morristown, go to the southeast at exit 12 on highway 160 which is a two-lane road. Go only about 6 mi then make a right on Holt Town road which is a two-lane road also. If you miss Old Town road you will come to a Dollar general about a half a mile down. Then you can fire supplies there and turn back around and go back North on 160 then you would make a left onto Holt Town road. Go only 2 miles west and southwest on Holt Town road then make a right on to Point Pleasant road then only 50 make a right onto west Turner Ridge road I am the second Stone driveway on the left which is only about 800 ft. 545 is painted with white paint on the left Cedar Post on the left side of the driveway coming in. But this post is about 50 ft up the driveway so it's hard to read the number that far away. During summer 10 miles away in Newport there is an outdoor park with an outdoor swimming pool and tennis courts and swing sets and monkey bars for children and picnic tables for picnicking. This is the new part City Park there is also a boat ramp five miles away my finger of Lake Douglas. It's a straight drive on Holt Town road to the boat ramp, which is right before you come to the big 400 ft long bridge going over the finger of Lake Douglas. Morristown has a big shopping mall with hey steakhouse on one end and in the middle five below store in Dick's sporting goods and on the outskirts of the parking lot of the mall is a Olive garden and a McDonald's restaurant. There is a really good restaurant about 3 miles ,called , CJ Papadops, which was started by a lady from Greece and her husband who is a local .Very nice people with super good food ! About $20 a plate Good ! Newport is a very small town but it does have a Walmart on the south side of interstate 40. In Newport is also a really super interesting Collectibles store. They must have a million dollars of antique collectible toys and all kinds of kitchen utensils and jewelry etc. It is on the north side of Newport on highway 321 that goes up to Greenville, TN. From there Greenville is only about 20 or 25 miles. I also have a badminton set and tennis rackets and balls. Also I am a natural health healer specializing in alphabiotics alignment. I was very ill for years after having a very bad back injury in the military , which rendered me unable to even walk. A spirit brother with a massive amount of Faith spoke life to my body and 3 days later I work and could walk slowly. Then I met a man that did alphabiotics alignment. As soon as he aligned me I was instantaneously twice as strong and could jump in halfway run! Therefore I determined right then I must become an alphabiotic aligner. I ask for a donation of $30 or more for this. It will help any and all ailments that you have. It opens up pinched up nerves at the base of the brains and allows the energy from the brain back to parts of the body that have been pinched off. Tent campn only $22. RVs = $30 and up depending on size due to driveway damage. 30 ft probably max to turn around. Blessings from your new friend Robert.
