WANDERLUST WAYPOINTS?
WHAT?!?!

Wanderlust Waypoints was created for nomads and by nomads. With locations around the country, we provide a place for all of us crazy travellers to call home (at least for a little while.) Each location provides essential services that we all need when we’re out there chasing pavement.

FACILITIES, AMENITITES, & OTHER ``E's``

Even though every waypoint is unique, we aim to make sure that all locations in the network have a number of standard amenities. Because things are always changing at each spot, please check each location's page under "stay" in the menu to see the amenities that are currently being offered at the time of your stay.

Please be aware that some of our sites are off-grid or semi-off-grid. Specific amenities may sometimes need to be restricted due to low supply from mother nature.

NETWORK-WIDE STARTING SITE RATES

The rates below are our current starting rates at locations throughout the network. Each location’s pricing and amenity rates are partially set by our property partners so rates can vary from location to location. Additional charges can be expected at some locations for things like laundry, wifi, and incidentals.

NOMADIC BEACONS

All Wanderlust Waypoints focus on four Nomadic Beacons – Stay, Build, Learn, & Play. You’ll see what we mean below.

STAY

We offer a place to call home temporarily. Skoolie, Coach, RV, Van, Camper, Tiny House, or Cabin we have a place for you to park, power, and fill whatever travels with you. If you’re nomadic at heart but haven’t taken the plunge, we have units of all shapes and sizes at each location for you to dip your foot into whichever proverbial pool you’d like to!

BUILD

Most Waypoints have access to places where you can construct your dream, no matter what it’s made from! Our Skill Spaces include auto, wood, metal, and everything in between. We have the tools you’ll need to get the job done available for check out in the Tool Shed.

LEARN

All waypoints are places to give help, get help, teach and learn. We host workshops that cover a wide range of topics to help you “level up” and add a few stat points. Some sites have apiaries and organic gardens to teach sustainability and give back to the community. Others have animal rescues. Connecting with the Nomad Network gives you a support system both on and off the road!

PLAY

There is always something fun going down at a Waypoint. We will host tiny house shows, bus rallies, and conventions to bring more exposure to the tiny nomadic movement. We’re planning special events like organic tastings with local chefs, music festivals, art shows, and artisan craft days to bring some culture to our villages. We’re opening mercantile shops to offer a wide variety of items made on-site and from local artisans and vendors.

All of this adds up to make any Wanderlust Waypoint a unique experience that is different at every spot and every time you visit. All of the information you could ever want is pretty easily accessible around this site, so check us out, do your research and if you have any questions at all, don’t hesitate to contact us!

Excellent folks, very short drive into McMinnville for supplies. Adequate work space, pet friendly, pretty quiet, and laid back. Johnny's making a great space for skoolie building and making friends. We definitely had a great experience and made a bit more progress on our build as well as made a few more friends. If you're on the lookout for a safe space to work on your rig, or you want to get to know more about what to expect from skoolie life, come check my new bud Johnny and stay a while. He's awesome!

What a great place! Beautiful place to visit if you are in need of a place to park and stay a spell. Johnny and Ashtyn are working hard to create the perfect Nomad community and work space. Great times around the campfire! Stop by and stay a while, work on your rig, help work on the grounds, but most of all…. relax and enjoy time with wonderful people! Thanks guys for allowing us a safe place to park and work!!

If you’re in need of some Nomad love From the road, than do not miss your opportunity to stop here. We were having issues with our bus so we adjusted our route to get here and I am so glad we did. What could have been a defeating disaster so early in our journey was promptly met with kindness, compassion and a selfless call to action. Thank you Johnny Blaze and family for sharing your nomad spirit. If we are ever coming through the south East again, we will definitely drop in and stay awhile. 🙂

I would highly recommend Wanderlust Waypoints to any nomads. It's the perfect place: safe, chill, amazing scenery, spring water, and cell service! It's a new place and constantly getting better. We can't wait to come back for a visit.

I was looking forward to stopping in to help and visit Wanderlust Waypoint. I am so glad I did!!!!! It's located in the beautiful Appalachian mountains of Tennessee. It's a blessing for anyone looking for a Safe, Friendly and Beautiful place to Rest, Play or to work on your home on wheels. There are many Parks, Waterfalls and historic sites within close proximity and easy access. Thank you Johnny Blaze and Family for opening up your Home, Property and hearts to Kayla and I. We are looking forward to visiting Wanderlust Waypoints as we travel across America 💞🙏🇺🇲

Great place to stay, staff is friendly and polite. The drive to either town form here is full of beautiful post card views. Everyday they are working to make this a better place for the guests. This location is a recommended stop, it's quiet, peacfull, and tranquil.
