22 acres of Private, Magickal forest spanning the bottom valley all the way to the top of Sand Mountain. The mountain has several natural terraces and flat areas suitable for campers to choose from including a nice spot overlooking a rock garden. As you ascend Sand Mountain, the vegetation thins revealing spectacular views of Lookout Mountain especially in the fall & winter months after the leaves have fallen. At the very top of the property are 30+ ft high cliffs with a cave. It has a colorful collection of lichen growing in it and we have named it our 'Mandala cave'. The cave is great for meditation. Rejuvenating guided hikes to the cliffs & caves are available upon request. This is raw land & raw forest. If you enjoy bush craft, there is plenty of material for you to build a lean-to, tipi, or structure of choice. Trees range from poplar to multiple species of oak. Natural wildlife include deer, wild turkeys, scorpions, and ticks. You're welcome to bring fluffy as we've never seen any predators, but there is a slight chance there could be some around. A lost animal on the mountain could be near impossible to find. We have 2 male cats. Unfortunately, the Earth does what she wants and weather forecasts can't be relied upon. We've had sunny days that have been forecasted to rain and un-predicted downpours. It can be raining at the top or the bottom of the mountain but not at the campsites in the middle.

Wooded camp with Mountain view

Beautiful campsite and the hosts were extremely welcoming, friendly, and overall very easy to communicate with! Great option for camping nearby Cloudland Canyon State Park and Zahnd Wilderness Management Area. Would definitely recommend!

Wooded camp with Mountain view

Camp spot is secluded and beautiful! Hosts are welcoming and helpful. The cart for hauling camping gear was awesome!! We had fun exploring the hillside and cliffs! And location is convenient to cloudland canyon. Info that would be helpful for future campers: One site is maybe 300 feet from the parking spot. The other is quite a bit further and up a steep hill. Packing light advised! The driveway up to where we parked likely requires 4WD or at minimum a raised vehicle/not low sitting sedan. You can park at the street and the host can haul you and gear up but keep that in mind.

Wooded camp with Mountain view

This was an amazing experience, would highly recommend for anyone who is looking for a secluded camping area with lots of room to explore. Aron and his wife were very welcoming. They were happy to show us around and tell us about things to do in the area!

Aron’s campsite was a great stay! He was so inviting to us and gave us a great tour of the space. Very chill campsite with easy access to cloudland canyon and lookout mountain. Would definitely stay again
