Built on a hill top…I wanted to give families a safe place to enjoy nature. This campsite is on a hillside because it’s the top of our 6 acres, yet allows the best winter time views of the valley, beautiful Fall leaves. The extra amenities for a primitive site are a trade for the hillside. Personal one single campsite for privacy. Perfect spot to travel Madison and Newton Counties, Buffalo River and fabulous hikes. Water features are a short drive away. Learn more about this land: Platform for tent 12x16, 2nd mulched ground tent area., gazebo, table and chairs, charcoal grill stand, propane grill under cover, dry wood for fire pit for purchase. New outhouse only used by Griffin Ridge. Bolder rock fire pit. Water tank for boiling and cleaning.

Would stay again 👍🏻. Site was clean, directions were easy to follow, and Stephanie responded promptly when we asked if they had firewood available. Location was easy enough to get to Ponca/Boxley area where we were hiking. The incline up to the site is a doozy, but I was in a 4WD jeep so no problems climbing it. This was my first experience using Hipcamp, and Stephanie’s land was a good introduction into it. 🏕️🥾🤙🏼

Great Host
This area was experiencing a heat wave and the host texted me to offer me a camp site at a neighbor's campground with no extra cost to us so we would have access to electricity and could have a fan. She didn't have to do this and could have never made this offer. Although we haven't stayed at this site, we will come back and give it a try. Thank you for your flexibility.

I enjoyed the campsite and all the amenities! Very intentional and thoughtful with how it was set up! Keep in mind you have to park at the bottom of a hill, and carry your camping equipment up the hill to set up and carry back down to the car. Also the bathroom is downhill, and the hill is very very steep.

Very lovely and spacious camp site. Wooden platform to sit the tent on. Chairs, table, campfire area, and a charcoal grill. Stephanie was awesome!! We got fresh eggs from her chickens for breakfast! Very private area on a dirt road. No one else in site except a few passing cars. Awesome experience!

Camping site
Stephanie’s land was absolutely beautiful. They even brought us some fresh eggs. We did get a little lost trying to find the site at first. We visited glory hole falls nearby which was absolutely amazing and I would highly recommend! Unfortunately we were unable to stay for the night due to a faulty tent and we didn’t realize the air up mattress we got from our wedding registry was a plug in. So be sure to plan ahead and check all your gear. Our lesson was learned but we would love to come back to this beautiful place one day!
