Admiral Farragut Academy

Wow the new ownership is killing it!! They have done so much in such a short time. This is the place to bring your family and disconnect from the world. Jason and his staff was so accommodating and a pleasure to talk too. We had a bday party while we was there and it will be a birthday my niece will never forgets. I'm so thankful for everyone at Rippling Stream and we can't wait to come back again this year.

This place has changed ownership and he has improved the campground alot. Sites have been leveled. Limited overnite sites. Wanted to get a seasonal but he has a waiting list and is not taking anymore names at present. Lots of monthly sites. Friendly service in the store at check in from Barb. Then the owner Dave greeted us with a smile and handshake. Great rates and the rates are based of how man people in your group. Give it a try. You can choose your site and book online. Happy Camping ⛺️!

Absolutely loved our weekend at Rippling Stream Campground! Jason and Barb went above and beyond to make sure we had a comfortable stay. The amenities were great. The kids loved the playground, pool and games/pool table in the arcade. There’s a small store on site to get all of your essentials and major stores like Walmart and Kroger are a quick ride away. You really get the wilderness experience without actually being too far from the city. Columbus is about 30 mins away! This was our first time renting an RV and definitely won’t be out last! All of the amenities of home but on wheels! From roasting marshmallows on the fire, to just spending time playing and disconnecting from the world. This was a weekend my kids and I will never forget! Can’t wait to return this will definitely be on our yearly todo list.

I stayed at Rippling Stream Campground a couple of weeks ago and had an absolute blast! For starters, there is over 25 acres of woods to explore with trails. There is also a creek you can walk up with the kids or your dog. My daughter actually caught some crawdads with her net that she bought at the campground store. Speaking of that, everything in the store was priced fairly. They don't try and price gouge you here just because you forgot something. There's a rec room, pool table, laundry, showers and even a Moose if you're a member. There's an existing campground which they were even adding more equipment to while I was there. They even have a pool. I also happen to know they are working on a restaurant and let me tell you, Barb makes some good food! (She let me try some of what she was testing). The staff is amazing, the seasonal campers are super friendly and this is just an all around fun place to be. I spoke with the owner and he has big plans for the place. I highly recommend you check this place out. Oh, I hear they even offer primitive tent camping!

Small Private school environment a community of love education, Sports, A lot of Pre college Education available and activity. Parenting groups and staff are a village with the kids. It's a Family affair.

We have 3 Daughters at Farragut, it’s an amazing institution. AFA has state of the art facilities with great technological systems. The academics and college prep aspect here are phenomenal but above all the academy helps these young men and women build self confidence.

Any child after 2 years at Farragut can walk up to any adult and look them straight in the eye and shake their hands. This firm foundation of being able to show respect, integrity and high self esteem is embodied in the military values taught to our children here. The military teaches our kids to respect and honor every individual regardless of their race, religion or national origin. The headmaster and his team are very accommodating to families.

The extracurricular activities like Robotics, Art, Science and Sports encourage the kids to think outside the box. Keep up the great work AFA Team. Our daughters love and cherish every moment they spend at AFA.

Sent my daughter here as a boarder 20 years ago, as a rising 10th grader. Before attending she was an underachiever at a private Catholic school in South Florida getting mostly C’s. This school gave her the incentive and skills to step it up and become a leader in and out of the classroom. She got accepted into the University of Florida, and now is employed in a great company in Atlanta, making great decisions for her firm, and earning a nice 6 figure salary with all the perks. I can HONESTLY say, this school was the beginning of greatness for my daughter. It taught her how to succeed for College when ordinary schools do not. Is it worth it? It depends on what you think your kids future is worth. After you answer that question it’s a pretty easy answer. This school is special. So many fond memories for me as a parent, just seeing my daughter grow, mature and become a successful leader. 20 years later I know where it all began. God bless.

As a proud ‘99 AFA graduate, I would give my entire high school experience here 10 stars if I could. Nothing could have better prepared me for life than the training and education I received here. The friendships I had developed during my time here, as well as those I made afterwards through our alumni networks are invaluable. If you’re looking for an elite college preparatory experience - you need not look any further.

I am a 2012 graduate from Farragut, and it is still the best experience of my life. Coming from the school gave me so many different insights on many things, though for the best experience there, join the color guard or the drill team. It is tons of fun, and opens up many opportunities. I am glad to have been there, the lifestyle will stick with you for the rest of your life, shaping you or your child to be a respectful, responsible, adult.
