Big Blue the Bus is all decked out and ready to host your next romantic glamping getaway in The Great Smoky Mountains! This gorgeous, mid-sized "skoolie" is permanently parked on our 5.5 acre property on English Mountain, surrounded by trees and wildlife, and just steps away from a seasonal bubbling stream with small waterfalls. It has everything you could possibly want for a couple's getaway, surrounded by Mother Nature, with all the conveniences you need plus the rustic air of camping in grand style.
This property is heavily forested. Parking is in a gravel parking lot about 30 yards from the bus. A wheeled luggage cart is available to help you bring your things to the bus up the lighted path. The bus roof has been raised 18", so the interior height is comfortable for anyone up to 6'5" or so. Queen sized bed, shower, toilet, dining area, couch, full kitchen.
You are welcome to walk the entire 5.5 acre property.
It would probably be helpful to you to get a quick tour of the bus and what's available to you and how to work certain things, but if you prefer your privacy, there's a binder in the bus with all of the information. Please let me know via message if you'd like me to give you the tour!
This property is off a private gravel road shared by 3 neighbors. Everyone keeps to themselves and enjoys the peaceful ambiance of English Mountain. The road is not paved but can be used by any type of car without any problems. The gravel is groomed regularly.
