Stories from the community

2 nights at Strattonooga

Spot is lovely, private and a personal favorite. Will definitely return! Steep incline gives you a work out. Be prepared. Old folks and very young might have a problem getting back up.

3 nights at Cabin and Barn on 20 Peaceful Acres

Great location. Beautiful property. It rained on us a good bit, but the barn w/ outdoor kitchen area was a nice place to hang w/ plenty of space. Outdoor shower and bathroom is amazing. Checked out some trails nearby at cloudland canyon.. missed Luna lake as it was not open. George was very responsive and nice to talk with. I highly respect what he is doing and has done on this property.

1 night at Little River Adventure Company

Staying here was just what I needed for a spontaneous get away. It was nice and quiet and the host communicated well and in a timely matter. Directions were easy and the camp site was large. I enjoyed early morning walks and the hiking and state parks around this area was absolutely amazing!

Weekend Trip to Magnolia Campground at Hixson Farms

Awesome spot to camp! The animals are absolutely adorable and amenities are great! Janna is very helpful and fast to reply. Easy access to Chattanooga, private and safe.

2 nights at Little River Adventure Company

Campsites are well maintained and easy to access. The property is peaceful and beautiful, located very close to the scenic Little River Canyon. There is also a nice cafe serving breakfast, lunch and dinner just minutes away. Giorgio is very friendly and responsive.

1 night at Magnolia Campground at Hixson Farms

This was one of my best memories with the Grandkids and I wish we would have stayed another day of two. Jana was most accommodating in every way and gave the kids a taste of farm living. We will be back with the younger grandkids when they get old enough to enjoy the mini horses and donkeys! 🥰

Weekend Trip to Little River Adventure Company

Amazing place to stay and wonderful host. Bathhouse was amazing also.

1 night at Magnolia Campground at Hixson Farms

My family and I loved our stay at magnolia. Highly recommend to anyone that loves to be out on the farm. There was plenty of furry friend interaction.

1 night at Magnolia Campground at Hixson Farms

Very fun and unique experience. Everyone loved all the mini animals. Mini pony’s and Goliath the doggie were my fav. Definitely will return.

Weekend Trip to Magnolia Campground at Hixson Farms

This was our first RV journey, and it did not disappoint. The farm animals and ander everywhere and love people...just be sure any pets you bring are ok with them. Janna was extremely hospitable, and she had us help her feed one of the Highland cows... another example of this not just being a stay, but an experience!

Weekend Trip to Haven of Hope

Excellent time at Serenity Escape Treehouse. We had time to hike the landscape at the treehouse, Little River Canyon, and Desoto State Park. We enjoyed time making smores, eating at The Hatter, and checking out the waterfalls and surrounding areas. The tree house was clean, accommodating for our family and pets, and had some warm little perks! Excellent stay!

Weekend Trip to Cabin and Barn on 20 Peaceful Acres

This was a great piece of land with a nice trail behind it that leads to a creek with plenty of room for many campers. It was nice to have potable water and a beautiful outdoor shower and toilet. I loved that there were some cats on the property that visited every now and then and the owner was very friendly and accommodating.

Weekend Trip to Cabin and Barn on 20 Peaceful Acres

We enjoyed camping at the property with our kids and grandkids. It was my daughter and son-in-laws birthday weekend. The outdoor kitchen was stocked with all the utensils you could need and all kinds of useful things. It was amazing to be able to have a warm shower after a busy day chasing kids. Having availability to power really helped us stay comfortable. We didn't really use the cabin as my kids wanted to "camp", (in tents) but it was super nice to have that option as the weather was threatening severe storms. We had a magical family weekend that will live forever in our memories. Thanks George.

2 nights at Little River Adventure Company

Giorgio was a fantastic host. Very personable. He let me and my husband try his electric Yamaha bike which was fun. He provided us with hiking trail maps and had firewood available for purchase. His dogs were very friendly, including a neighborhood goat which tried to hop in the bathhouse with me! Our tent site was a quiet, shady, level, and peaceful spot, save for some road traffic noise which is out of his control. His bathhouse and bathroom facility was cute, functional and within walking distance.

Weekend Trip to Strattonooga

The site is wonderful with a beautiful view of the lake and your own private pier on the water. The owners happened to be next door during our stay and they introduced themselves and told us to send a message if there were any issues or questions. We didn’t have any but really appreciated their hospitality. We had to cut our trip short due to weather, but would definitely be interested in staying at this spot again in the future.

Weekend Trip to Magnolia Campground at Hixson Farms

This was a great spot for the family to enjoy some time with each other, see some animals, and meet a sweet working dog. The facilities provided are nice and there are plenty of spots to hang out in the evening with some beautiful lighting. This is such a great spot!

Very much enjoyed the solitude and warm shelter during all the rain. The wood burning stove kept everything warm and dry. Good hot shower and clean toilet. Freedom for my pup to explore. Would stay here again.

Weekend Trip to Forest at Sand Mountain

The camp site was really nice! There is a challenge getting up the hill but they are more than willing to lend a hand and accommodate.

3 nights at Strattonooga

We had the most relaxing 3 days at Shannon’s site with 4 adults and 3 kids (10, 8, & 1.5). We spent hours fishing. My eight year old caught 9 bluegills and we observed the real pros catching bass. The huge dock was perfection! You could find us either floating from it or jumping off it during most daylight. All hookups worked like a charm. We will definitely make a plan to return.

Weekend Trip to Magnolia Campground at Hixson Farms

We really enjoyed camping on the farm. Janna was super nice and extremely helpful with some tips to help us with our own place. Very quiet and peaceful. Really neat to have some of the animals walk right up to the camper. For anyone looking for a unique experience we would highly recommend Magnolia!

Cabin and Barn on 20 Peaceful Acres

1 site · Lodging20 acres · Lookout Mountain, GA

It's like having your own private summer camp! The unfurnished cabin is dry and clean. A huge upgrade from a tent (feel free to pitch your tents if you like)! The bathhouse offers hot showers, a flush toilet, and sink. The open pole barn has a deluxe camping kitchen set up with pots and pans, a propane stove, a coffee maker, and a dishwashing sink. There is also a dining table and chairs. While the property is close and convenient to Chattanooga, once you are enjoying the serene woods, shady trees, starry nights, and quality time with family and friends you will forget all about the city! While there are no full-time residents on the property, there is a small functioning horse farm about 100 yards from the camping area. On most days the owner will stop by to care for the horses, and teach riding lessons.
