Did you know the percentage of campers who camp three+ times each year has increased 72% since 2014? If youâre in that group, simply want to explore more nature in and around Nooga, or have a property that might make a great camp spot, let us introduce you to the Airbnb of camping: Explore Eden.
Since launching the app for renting land in April 2021, Explore Eden has grown to 20+ properties across three states (including our sister city, Nashville) and 2,000+ downloads. Next up: Chattanooga. |

Becoming an Explore Eden Land Host
By listing a property with Explore Eden, landowners can earn another source of income with property they already own (read: turn that RV into an investment property) while providing unique outdoor experiences for Noogans and folks visiting our community. The payoff? Land Hosts can potentially pay their property taxes for the year (or generate passive income) by hosting alone. Bonus: Explore Eden is now offering $500 guaranteed to their first five Land Hosts in the Nooga area. |
