Spring Fed Lake on Coal Fire Creek

1 site · Lodging35 acres · Reform, AL

We plan to build a house here in the not too distant future. Enjoy the lake, the hiking and being in nature. We accquired the Scottie camper in 2016 and had an expert in restoration deconstruct it then reconstruct it from the ground up using the same pattern and most of the same interior only modernizing for safety and convenience (who doesn't love a microwave?) It is airtight, won't leak and will serve you well. You will sleep like a baby in "The Beehive." She is 15 feet long and 8 feet tall from the ground and 6.5 feet tall inside.Learn more about this land:Come enjoy our 1967 Scottie renovated vintage camper. Our gorgeous small lake is crystal clear, clean, spring fed brimming with bass, brim, crappie. springs on back side of property. You may fish (catch and release) and keep 1 large fish or several small ones that you intend to cook. (Please bring your own fishing gear and fish cleaning equipment). We provide tabletop charcoal grill. Coal fire creek is on the right side of the dam. Explore and find treasures in nature too! Paint, write, read and just let your soul rest here. Deer and wildlife also abound for possible viewing or photographing (no hunting allowed). No light pollution so enjoy it "when the stars come out." The town of Reform is very close by with BBQ, steak, and vegetable restaurants and antique shops. "The Beehive" has a microwave, electric kettle and French press for coffee, panini maker for eggs and bacon (or use the camping grill), small refrigerator, a/c and thermostat-controlled heater, private HOT outdoor shower. Camper has deep compartments for food, supplies and clothing storage. Bathroom has kitty litter potty with supplies for neat and clean bagging and disposal in supplied Outdoor Garbage Cans. We supply the Kitty Litter! We provide one bag of ice in a yeti type cooler for outside. You provide any ice refills. No refunds for less-than-optimal weather. If you have extra people, you may bring a tent. Only 2-3 will fit in the camper. Up to 5 additional people may stay in their own tent (you bring) for 10.00 per person on any location you wish on the property. If you have a small canoe or watercraft you wish to bring it is ok. A host will meet you at the campsite within a 2 hour window and show you how everything works. All propane has been removed from the inside of the camper for safety, it is all electric. Propane powers the automatic grill if you wish to use this instead of wood for fire. Also propane runs the showers. The host that meets you will show you how everything works. A full tank of propane is provided for your stay but it you run out and want more you must refill in nearby Reform .RULES: No pets, No smoking inside the camper, No use of Illegal hard drugs anywhere on this property, or any illegal activities. The front porch of the camper has a wooden deck overlooking a valley and the horses across the hillside rural road. Another camper is parked adjacent for storage but you will not use this camper. It won't hamper your lovely stay. Rural Alabama has abundant wildlife including insects and snakes, use caution but we have never had a problem. Alabama agricultural law says to use our farm at your own risk as you enjoy the great outdoors. If you would like to request a group camp of more than 6 people (camper plus one tent) please message me and I will make a listing for the number you anticipate. West Alabama is wonderful!
