Caney Creek Luxury Glamping Wagon Riverside Resort
Summary:
Based on authentic 19th-century designs, our temperature-controlled the Conestoga Family Wagons at Welcome Valley Village offer a unique experience for adults and kids alike.
Enjoy roasting marshmallows over a campfire, sleeping under the stars, and waking up to a stunning sunrise just like the pioneers of old–except you'll have electricity, Wi-Fi, a private bathroom, and plush bedding. Caney Creek Wagon at Welcome Valley Village sleeps up to four between a luxurious King bed and twin bunk
The Space:
Welcome Valley Village, a Timberroot Rustic Retreat, consists of six beautiful cabins and three glamping wagons on a 17-acre gated property, surrounded by lush forests, winding trails, and over 900 feet of private riverfront on the world-famous Ocoee River. This property is owned and operated by Timberroot, a small, family-owned business that specializes in creating rustic spaces that allow you to relax, recharge, and reconnect with nature.
All three of our Conestoga Wagons are corralled around a fire pit to provide the most authentic portrayal of pioneer life. While we want you to feel like you are traveling down the Oregon trail, our wagon experience includes all the modern amenities of a feature-rich glamping experience.
Old Copper comfortably sleeps a family of 4 between the memory foam king bed and comfy twin bunks. The wagon's kitchenette includes a microwave, mini fridge, coffeemaker, and rustic washbasin sink with hot & cold running water.
You'll have private access to the ¾ bath assigned to your wagon in our custom-built bathhouse. In addition, you will have access to a shared utility room with a washer and dryer.
Enjoy the wonders of nature by sharing a meal with your family at your private dining pavilion or lounging around the shared fire pit and enjoying the crackle of a good campfire.
For a more private experience, rent all three wagons and have the shared amenities to yourself.
Please Note: We have a strict 4 person maximum, and are not able to accommodate more than 4 guests per wagon including children and infants.
NO PETS are allowed in the wagons under any circumstances. Welcome Valley Village offers several pet-friendly accommodations if you'd like to bring your four-legged friends.

Welcome Valley Village consists of 17 forested acres bordered by the Ocoee River. Guests have the use of beautiful landscaped trails and common areas. Directly over the river is our spacious dock where guests can relax, swim, fish, and drop in tubes, SUP’s, & kayaks.

Thank you Bre! We look forward to you staying with us again next time.
Had fun going back in time as a child. Made my parents and I feel like kids again. Laughed and sang camping songs like old times. Will come back again.

Thank you for the glowing review! We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed your stay at our Timberroot Rustic Retreats property. We appreciate your kind words and hope to welcome you back soon!
Tucked away in a beautiful forest setting, this place is a true gem. The wagons are charming and just the perfect size for a quick getaway. I was skeptical that the AC would handle the TN summer heat, but I was wrong. The temperature was nice and cold. Very close to all the water activities. Would highly recommend.

Thank you for the 5-star review, Suzie! The wagons are amazing, we are so glad you enjoyed your experience! Be sure and come again!
We enjoyed a wonderful weekend at welcome valley village. Check in/out were a breeze.
The wagons are so cool! The attention to detail was a wonderful surprise. The bathhouse was also very cool. It is obvious the owners take great pride in their property. We spent the afternoon enjoying the grounds and river. And the fire pit and grill that evening. Any concerns were quickly and graciously taken care of by guest services. Everyone was extremely welcoming and helpful during our stay. The only downside was having to leave. I highly recommend welcome Valley Village. Visitors are in for a unique, fun time!

Elizabeth, It was a pleasure hosting you. We really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience at Welcome Valley Village with us. We are so glad you enjoyed "The Wagon Experience". We hope you'll come and see us again soon!
This place is absolutely gorgeous. There was four of us girls and we had plenty of room. Very comfortable beds and bathrooms were beautiful and very clean. I highly recommend this place. Would be perfect for for any vacation, from a couple to renting all 3 wagons for a large group.
This was the coolest experience! The covered wagons were so adorable. Way roomier than I expected too! The bath house was nice, clean, and air conditioned which was nice. We built a fire and just soaked in the relaxing ambiance. The only suggestion i have is to have some silverware there. My kids fixed some Mac n cheese cups in the microwave but we could not find any silverware. Other than that minor thing everything was absolutely perfect!
