Central Alabama campgrounds

TCNashville · 10-07-2020, 11:25 AM

I was wondering if anyone had a favorite campground in the central Alabama area. Since I haven't been able to camp much this summer I was thinking of maybe taking a 2 week trip sometime in November or December and hoping it would still be warm enough there for camping. It would be a 1 day drive for me at ~ 450 miles. I've looked at a bunch online but just curious if anyone has been to one that really stands out. Thanks, Terry

Not really central Al but a little north of central. OUTSTANDING State Park and beautiful campground:

The alapark website is a great source for locating parks in Alabama. DeSoto State Park, Cheaha, Frank Jackson are just a few. Some of the most popular ones such as DeSoto and Cheaha are hard to get reservations due the fall colors. There are a lot of beautiful campgrounds in the State. Good luck and happy camping!

Lake Guntersville State Park is good, in fact all Alabama state Parks nice

Ok thanks guys, I'll check 'em out. Was hoping for a full hookup site and I'm sure there's some at the state parks.

We stayed at Deer Lick State Park just north of Tuscaloosa. Just a beautiful campground.

Most all of the Alabama State Parks have sites with FHU. Enjoy your stay. A great time of the year to come.

There are a couple of places in Wetumpka. Swayback camp ground, Leisure RV, and a brand new RV park next to the Sports Complex (not sure of the name).

A beautiful place to camp is Wind Creek on Lake Martin as well.

Boy you guys were right! Finding a spot in Alabama in November is tough. It's that way in October here as we leaf peak later in the month. I did find this park and wonder if anyone has been there and has an opinion.

Have not stayed there but there are a few YouTube videos that may be of interest. Happy camping!
