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.

The best camping near Shiloh National Military Park guide

Overview

About

Among the serene rolling hills of southern Tennessee, this battlefield saw 23,746 casualties. This was more than the total American casualties in all previous wars combined. More than 110,000 troops met in an epic struggle for control of the Confederacy.

The Battle of Shiloh was a miserable experience on a massive scale. Among the miles of nature trails and paved roads are monuments to fallen heroes. Obelisks and statues show where key events of the two-day battle took place. A 12.7-mile auto tour route has 20 tour stops. Visit such famous places as the Peach Orchard, the Hornet's Nest, and the Albert Sidney Johnston death site.

Amid the monuments are preserved artifacts. View earthen fortifications where units tried to protect their positions. Cabins and buildings served as places to hide from the fierce volleys of gunfire. Cannon placements show where artillery tried to bombard enemy positions.

South of Shiloh lies Corinth, Mississippi. The town harbors another battlefield site, historic homes used by Civil War generals, and more fortifications. Corinth held a key railroad junction through the southern territory. This was the main target of Union troops at Shiloh. Controlling the railroad paved the way for an eventual invasion of the Confederacy.

Nearby campsites provide a home base for a fantastic vacation. Take time out from your nature hikes and mountain climbs to learn about a pivotal Civil War battle.
