Executive Summary
Camp Grace is one of the rarest properties to come to market in the Southeast — a destination event venue and recreational property built to an exceptionally high standard, purpose-built for commercial operation, and never fully opened to the public. It has seen only light, private use since opening. What a buyer receives is a facility that has been lived in just enough to confirm it works, and cared for well enough to show no signs of it. Set on 145± acres of rolling hardwoods, planted pines, and manicured clearings in Cherokee, Alabama, the property was designed from the ground up to host people at scale. The centerpiece is a custom-built 84’ x 88’ event and wedding venue completed in 2024 — outfitted with high-end lighting, a full kitchen plumbed for gas, dedicated bridal suites with private baths, ADA restrooms, a covered outdoor patio, and a sweeping pond view that greets every arriving guest. Multiple ceremony locations are available across the property, including waterside, open field, and covered settings. Two fully furnished residences sit on-site: a 1,678 sq ft historic home remodeled to the studs in 2021 (3 bed / 1.5 bath, 10-ft ceilings, two gas fireplaces) and a 2,400 sq ft gathering home (4 bed / 2.5 bath) with a detached garage and workshop. Both convey fully furnished. A 30’ x 40’ pavilion with an attached 20’ x 40’ deck, a 40’ x 50’ shop with drive-through access, and a three-stall storage barn round out the improvements. Two ponds anchor the property — one stocked and positioned alongside the venue, one a state-designed waterfowl impoundment with an agri-drain system that attracts Mallards, Wood Ducks, Buffleheads, Blue Herons, and more year-round. Miles of interior trails provide access throughout the property for UTVs, hiking, and exploration. Infrastructure is built for serious use: 600-amp underground electric service, county water, high-speed fiber internet, and over 2,700 feet of paved road frontage with multiple entrances. The location story has gotten stronger. Huntsville — Alabama’s largest city and one of the fastest-growing metros in the country — is roughly 90 minutes east. Nashville, Birmingham, and Memphis are each within 2.5± hours. And in March 2026, Cherokee became home to Hadrian’s Factory 4: a $2.4 billion U.S. Navy advanced manufacturing facility expected to bring up to 1,000 high-paying jobs to the Shoals region. The economic energy converging around this area is real and accelerating. For a buyer looking to acquire a fully built, income-ready destination property without building from scratch, Camp Grace is a compelling and rare opportunity. *All furnishings convey minus personal items.
