Tiny Dreamer Homestead

9 sites · RVs, Tents4 acres · Hornsby, TN
Welcome to Tiny Dreamer Homestead. If you are traveling through or just want to get away, we would love to host you! The land is mowed down, lush green with some trees in the middle and just all around beautiful. I just added 4 gravel Rv pads and gravel paths around the homestead as well as 6 large wildflower gardens. Right now there are no activities on the land. Just a place to stay if someone wants to camp or you can walk on the paths. If you have a golf cart, you can ride those on the property. I do own 22 chickens which are a delight and I sell farm fresh eggs. Produce coming eventually. I also rent my tiny house on wheels on Airbnb. The camp sites have not been broken in yet so the spots are not in a designated area yet. There are 4 tent camp spots to choose from. The photos you see are the areas you can choose from. I supply a fire pit for your use during your stay.

Camp Wonder Wander is Wanderful

15 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents17 acres · Waynesboro, TN
Your host Val has walked away from her life as a tenured graphic design professor for a passion that is probably her true calling. Inspired by travels and a youth immersed in girls scouts, I created this retreat center and camp for the opportunity to relish in nature, put away the phone and get back to craft, conversation, and the basics of life. You'll relish in the quiet and beauty of the rural rolling foothills of Appalachia in mid-south TN. 20 minutes from any town so prepare en route. Route 99 splits the 17 acres with retreat center on one side and an 11.5 acre campground with significant river front property On The Buffalo. This is in Lewis county - of the Lewis and Clark adventurers. The Buffalo River is a class 1 and sometimes 2 river perfect for kayaking. Ask about add on options like a tour and story about the camp and animals or even a pottery lesson or art workshop.

The best camping near J.P. Coleman State Park guide

Overview

About

Just southwest of the intersection of Mississippi, Alabama, and Tennessee is a southern vista overlooking the the Tennessee River. From RV and walk-up camping to houseboating, J.P Coleman State Park is like the Disneyworld of the South for water enthusiasts. The massive Pickwick Lake offers 47,500 acres of freshwater for fishing (Mississippi State license required), sailing, water skiing and anything else you can think of to do on the water. Set in an area rich with history, J.P Coleman is close to a barrage of Civil War memorabilia including the Shiloh Civil War Battlefield and Historic Homes and Civil War Sites.

When to go

The ideal time to visit J.P. Coleman State Park is during the spring and fall when the weather is mild and the natural beauty is at its peak. Summer brings more visitors and higher temperatures, while winter can be less crowded but cooler. Plan your trip accordingly to make the most of your park experience.

Know before you go

  • Check the park's operating hours, typically from 8:30am to 5pm, before planning your visit.
  • Stay informed about any trail closures or safety advisories by visiting the park's official website.
  • Accessibility varies across different areas of the park; inquire ahead if you require special accommodations.
  • Bring along water and snacks, as dining options may be limited within the park.
  • Remember to pack out your trash to keep the park clean for everyone's enjoyment.
