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.

Glamper on Miller’s Falls
We stayed in Glamping Tent for 2 nights and it was perfect! Grant made sure we had a good nights sleep, and checked to see if we needed anything. We brought our food for all meals. We also brought wood and so enjoyed sitting at the fire each night in complete silence! You can ride around and look at his land. He has beautiful, wooded acreage. We took our pup. I have nothing but good things to say about our stay a d the glamping tent. The bed was very comfortable too!

The trampoline tree tent was such a unique, charming experience! We loved the beautiful scenery, building a bonfire, and sleeping up in the sky. We could come back in a heartbeat!

Primitive and quiet
Grant was great. His wife and him recommended some close waterfalls to hike to and were super friendly. The stay (primitive) was great. The spot stayed cool on 80 degree days, was mostly quiet (except for neighboring property coon dogs which I thoroughly enjoyed listening to). Definitely need a high ground clearance vehicle (maybe even 4x4 if in rainy seasons). I plan on camping here again and will recommend this spot to others

We loved our stay at the primitive site. Plenty of room to roam and the dogs enjoyed being off the leash. Grant was very responsive and accommodating, due to a number of circumstances we arrived quite late, and he still met us to show us how to get to the camp site. We would definitely stay again.

The Trampoline Tent was awesome. I took my son and one of his friends and the experience was excellent. We brought an iron skillet and they provided a grate for us to be able to cook over the fire. The tent was great as well. Highly recommend!
