Welcome to 'The Farmers Forest' by Keeper and Guardian Farmstead. We've built a very unique and private site that is exclusive to our Farm. We have a beautiful abundance of wildlife and because we center around maintaining a healthy balance for our Farm and Forest; we keep our camp booked for less than 15 nights a month. This ensures our wildlife the freedom to still pass and not feel crowded out and for our Farm to rest in between social interactions. This makes for the best and most full experience you can have when you stay at the one and only 'Equilibirum Escape'. Besides the adventure that awaits you on our grounds, this is also a fantastic location to enjoy several amenities such as:
1) Smokey Mountains 1hr
2) Downtown Knoxville 35mins
3) Big Ridge State Park 25mins
4) Hickory Star Marina 15mins
5) Grocery stores within 10mins
6) Seven Springs Winery 7mins
Regardless if you choose to stay put or venture off site, you have many options within a very reasonable distance to maximize your stay! The access to camp is off a main route, therefore we are an easy drive from the hustle and bustle. But once you are on the grounds, your site will take you deep into the tranquility of the earth. At night there's no telling what visitors (don't worry we mean the 4 legged kind) may pass through or the melody of creatures you may hear. Our Farm is located on site and private tours and experiences are available if you'd like to bolster your stay. But if you want to just unplug, hike, explore or star gaze then come elevate to the next level camping!Have you been wanting a real backcountry adventure but not sure of exactly how much you were wanting to 'rough it'? Or are you a seasoned backpacker that would like a convenient escape but without bumping into other campers or hikers? Regardless of your experience, the Equilibrium Escape will take you to the next level. A furnished outhouse with sink and toilet, a canvas bell tent pitched and ready for you and your sleeping bags; all these amenities save you time and energy so you can get to relaxing. Your journey begins when you park and then hop in the mini Truck for a truly one of a kind 4x4 experience. We will ascend about 900ft and then the rest is up to you! The actual campsite resides at nearly 1100ft elevation, which naturally has outstanding views, but the one thing to note here is the ABSOLUTE PRIVACY and Serenity. You are in the middle of the Forest ontop of a ridge in the country on a Farm. It's a wild location, literally. We have managed our land to be a sanctuary for the wildlife that has called it home for generations, therefore there is a lot of activity. This is a bird watchers paradise! We have established families of Owls, Hawks, Eagles, and our favorite, the iconic Pileated Woodpecker. This incredible site is very difficult for pictures to capture or do any justice, it's meant to be experienced. If you have been wanting to experiment with a night in woods, primitive campfire cooking, but still having a generous sleeping area and the comforts of an outhouse, you are invited to be our guest! At the Equilibrium Escape you don't just stay for the night, you come for the experience. Your span of privacy is nearly 10 acres and you are the only campers on the entire ridge. This is as exclusive as it can get! So grab your favorite gear and sleeping bags, bring a couple of friends and get ready to elevate your camplife.
