45 private acres on our homestead for you to roam. Seven eclectic sites to choose from ranging from primitive camping to a lovely log cabin. All except the log cabin lovingly built by the owner, loaded with creative touches. Featuring: * Two gorgeous waterfalls. Each of our stay-sites are located within about 100-150 yards of Fifty-foot tall Miller’s Falls. * A large cave at the end of a short, but rugged hike. * A fairy Village filled with Hollow Oak Tree Fairy homes. The trees glow after dark. Magical. * Three acres for group camping centered on a well-equipped, covered outdoor kitchen. * Peaceful Meditation Retreats at the Outdoor Kitchen under brain-wave enhancing satellite dishes. * Certified Hypnotherapy Disclaimer: The flow of the waterfall is subject to fluctuations in temperature, seasonal droughts, & rain fall. The most favorable seasons for waterfall flow are fall, winter & early spring. We came to this magical place to found a self-reliant, homesteading eco-community when I retired from corporate life in 2006. It's called the Village on Sewanee Creek, named for the creek 800 feet below the bluff where we are located. I traveled the world as a senior executive for Baskin-Robbins, Dunkin' Donuts, Papa Johns, Blockbuster, 7-Eleven and other retail franchises, making the world safe for Pizza, Ice Cream, Pancakes Video Rentals and American convenience. And I was ready for something more fufilling. I scouted for a place of exquisite natural beauty and I found it here. I bought way too much land just before the real estate bust and learned how to turn a nice fortune into a very small one. I faced challenges and had lots of fun. Now I want to share our experience. It's the Village 2.0 for guests. Or not. Life in the city is OK as long as you can get away frequently. I'm convinced if you love nature and the outdoors, this is the best place to celebrate it.

Perfect Weekend Getaway!

Treetent Campsite

My partner and I loved camping on Grant and Becky's land in the Trampease Tree tent this past weekend. You could tell they really put a lot of thought into this setup as it had everything that we needed. Grant and Becky met us once we arrived and showed us where our site was and the different paths to take to check out the land. They encouraged us to hike their property and we saw so many beautiful sights and sounds. They have so much to explore on their land that my partner and I already want to go back! This was my first time booking thru Hipcamp and I have already told all of my friends to check it out! Stay with Grant and Becky, you will not be disappointed- trust me!!

Treetent Campsite

So lovely! Grant has done just a nice job of creating magical settings on his land. We stayed in the tree tent and were impressed by how level and dry and sturdy it was. We loved having the creek wrap around the site and very short walk to the waterfall! We found MANY toads on our night walks to the fairy houses. Lots of fun!

Treetent Campsite

I loved the trampoline tree-tent! When I arrived, the site was clean and peaceful. The host was very friendly, showed me to the site, and offered recommendations on hiking on the property and restaurant options. The site itself was not far from the others or main house, but felt peaceful and private. I brought my dog, who enjoyed the privacy and the beautiful creek that was steps away from the campsite. The amenities offered are wonderful: great hiking and views on the property, a grate for the fire and several lighting options, the tree tent itself is clean and comfortable, the host offers several opportunities to join in art classes, and the bundle of firewood was available on arrival. Overall, I would absolutely recommend this site to anyone. I felt safe and comfortable during my stay.

Amazing spot to camp! Grant and Becky Communicated with me shortly after the reservation was made and recommended me a few local spots since I was from out of town, and also checked that i was experienced in camping, since it was a little harsher weather. I appreciated that they asked and were so helpful in making sure when we arrived and we were going to be comfortable! When we arrived! I was greeted by Becky and she showed us to our camp spot. The spot was great! Clean and very private! I would come back and check out the glamping options next time! It's also 30 mins from the caverns, and also the views you experience on the way to their location were great!!
