A couple of minutes from I-65 Exit 354. Convenient to Athens , Huntsville, Decatur, and Florence, Alabama. 20 or 30 Amp available. 50 Amp may be available, please mention which you would like upon your stay request. Very quiet country setting minutes from downtown Athens. Please only use generator sparingly and during daytime . As we started traveling more after hosting over 60 families we had to decide whether to stop hosting or create an area that the majority of the time would be Self Serve . We decided that we didn't want to have to tell anyone that needs a safe place to stay that we couldn't help them so many times there won't be anyone to greet you. There will be a box to leave donations, thank you for understanding. Suggested Local Attractions:From hiking trails to space travel this area has something for everyone. Tennessee river for Fishing, Boating, and swimming ,Richard Martin Trail, Alabama Veterans Museum, Madison Bowling Center, Sci-Quest hands on science center, Marina ,Old Decatur Historic District ,Carnegie Visual Arts Center, U.S. Space and Rocket Center, Cooks Natural Science Museum, Breweries and distilleries etc. are all within 20 or so miles.

I posted a review of this site. i want to follow up as the owner contacted me to tell me that he was having an electrition coming to check out the 50 amp connection ground fault and make sure it is safe. The owner is very responsible and doing everything to insure everything is in order and said he won't let anyone hook up until it has been inspected and cleared. This is a great location close to town and very safe and quiet.
