Blue Springs State Park Alabama

Had a great time at this off the beaten path State Park. Not many campsites but great for our Go. The lower loop (Sites 19-23) are right next to the Choctawatchee River and may be susceptible to flooding in the rainy season. Although it’s only about 30 feet wide. But there is a big floodplain. April through Labor Day are high season ( with mosquitoes)! We were in site 22, level pad with gravel. Full electric and water hookups. Big draw is the dark skies! The spring has been enclosed by cement walls and is jammed on the weekends. We got in before most people and had most of the campground to ourselves. We will go back!

We camped here recently as a large family group. While our camping space could barely be called that, the park was quite nice. It was clean and well maintained, the bath house was clean, and there was lots of room for the grandkids to play and ride bikes. The springs area was shady, and the springs themselves were awesome (if you can stand the verrry cold water). The customer service was great.

It is clearly an older park with not much recent love. It is clean but not perfect.

The sites have older hookups but they are functional. The campsites are not level and some of them you have to guess where to put the trailer. We stayed on April 8& 9 (Thursday and Friday) and found it mostly empty! At night, the only sounds were the nature sounds of a very active forest.

The springs are very pretty and great for a natural spring. We did not swim but were very impressed with the cleanliness of the water. 

I would recommend staying here if you were close by. I would not drive that far out of my way for it. Great for a night or two.

I first visited blue springs state park almost 2 months ago n stayed there almost 2 nights a week since then and I love it there wish I could move there but the water is freezing

The spring is beautiful and flows into a little creek... this place has the potential to be a good spot but the staff and the people who visit really need to step up and clean this place. It looks like the staff has abandoned the place. Their was food left all over the ground from the people visiting. Trash was overflowing from the cans. The bathrooms were filthy and infested with flies. The trash cans being full and the bathrooms are really the worst part. This place would be good to visit on a week day early in the morning. I don’t recommend staying on the camp ground. I wish I would have taken pictures.

The main attraction in this state park is the spring fed pool. There is a lot of nice grassy areas plus a playground but everyone was in the water. I tried it but found it too cold even though August in Alabama is very hot. Campground seemed a little cramped but acceptable. Bugs became a real issue as the sun began to set. Come armed with repellant.

This is a gem in south Alabama with the most perfect cold water to cool that Alabama heat. The cabins are more like FEMA trailers but they have some sort of AC. Consider yourself glamping Alabama style and you will be fine
