What We Do Not Offer
Hunting in a fenced-in enclosure -
all of the animals that we hunt are NOT found restrained
within any enclosures. This is NOT a "canned hunt"
environment. This is a real hunt and not simply a
shoot. Our wild hogs are not pen raised or hand fed and set
out the morning of your hunt so the dogs can find a
'wounded' wild hog.
Lodging - Lodging options range from free primitive
camping in the hunting areas to furnished cabin rentals,
motels, bed & breakfast inns and for pay campgrounds.
For extended stays in the area, timeshares may be something to consider, as
ownership offers you reliable accommodations again and again. If you
have never experienced the lifestyle, you may want to find a timeshare for rent
to try one out first. You can
find a timeshare rental
in places like Crossville, Crab
Orchard, Spencer, Sevierville, and Fairfield Glade to name a few.
Food - Due to insurance liability restrictions we
cannot provide food for our clients. There are local grocery stores
and many restaurants to choose from.
Transportation - We cannot provide transportation to or
from the hunt area. Most of the roads to the hunt area are
National Forest dirt or gravel roads. Off road vehicles are
not permitted behind any gates on Forest Service roads and
in most areas not permitted on main roads in the National
Forest.
Ask your guide what the local regulations are concerning
ORV's in the hunt area you choose.
Hunting License/Permits - The Wildlife Resources
Agency in all states requires individual identification so we cannot
provide licenses or permits.
Hunting Equipment. ammunition, tree stands, etc.
100% guaranteed kills - We do not offer "canned hunts" where
there are animals contained in a fenced in area therefore we
cannot give you a 100% guaranteed kill. We hunt the
old fashioned way, free range, fair chase as it offers our
clients a true hunting challenge.
Meat processing - We can advise a local meat
processor.
In order to continue to operate in the
most efficient manner possible, and due to increases in
paper, printing, mailing expenses, and operating costs (rapid rise in fuel expenses), for the foreseeable
future, Appalachia Adventures will no longer be
sending out printed brochures. You can use the links on the left
side of the site for detailed information. Should you have
any questions at all or require further assistance, please
