Kingston Downs
Kingston Downs is a private retreat property near Rome, Georgia, between Atlanta and Chattanooga: rolling meadow, river and woodland under broad open skies, with cottages, glamping tents, a clubhouse and outdoor pavilion spaces. When a festival is booked it becomes a sprawling, camping-oriented music landscape. The property is remote and cannot offer full ADA compliance, though accessible parking, accommodation and a path to the pavilion can be arranged, and the terrain is rough and uneven.
