Camping @ Natural Gathering Grounds

We loved the camp space. Note that the bath house is in the front of the compound, where as you will be camping further back. We couldn't find it at first, but when we did it was very nice and clean.

Camping @ Natural Gathering Grounds

I am very unhappy with the hosts but I can’t comment on the property as I’ve never had a chance to stay there. I have booked a tent site twice here and they have never responded to my request but I still get charged. Last time I booked, I never cancelled so I was charged. I am extremely disappointed. Looking at their website, it seems that they’re now an event venue. I would really like to speak to someone about the $82 I was charged.

Camping @ Natural Gathering Grounds

This place was absolutely amazing!! Such a beautiful and clean camping site. It was perfect when you come in you can drive straight to the camping site and unload right from your vehicle! With nice clean bathroom/showers a short walk away. You are able to bring your own golf carts/atv with you and if you don't have something like that you can also rent one from them to help travel to the many fishing ponds and to the river at the end of the property. We were a family of 8 visiting and they had one that fit us all and our fishing/river gear! The property was very well maintained. You can tell they take a lot of time and love into taking care of it. The owner's family who live on the property are some of the nicest people ever! They also have chickens, goats, and even a few beautiful peacocks. The kids loved watching and feeding them. Also another bonus we didn't know before booking they even have a electric post you can plug a couple of things up if needed. Plus they are only about 10 minutes from Bee City Zoo which is a must visit place if you haven't been before! We have been probably 4 times over the past few years. Our family loves it there! Which is how we stumbled across The Natural Gathering Grounds Campground! We will definitely be back again! Thank y'all so much for everything ❤️
