Whether you're here to fish the on-site pond or explore hiking and biking trails, Lakeside RV Park operates year-round in Opelika with full hookups for RVs up to 45 feet. The campground accommodates both short-term visitors and long-term residents, creating what one reviewer describes as "an eclectic sort of place." Sites feature gravel surfaces that tend to be fairly level, and the property includes a game room with pool tables.
The pond supports catch-and-release fishing with what campers report as "big basses," and guests can drive golf carts or ATVs throughout the campground. Recent improvements have updated various facilities, though the property maintains a working atmosphere with ongoing expansion projects. "The park has been updating coming along very well," notes one recent visitor, highlighting the clean bathhouse and laundry facilities.
Full hookups include electric, water, and sewer connections, plus access to a dump station. Additional amenities cover drinking water, restrooms, showers, and campfire permissions. The campground allows pets and accepts reservations. Staff receives consistent praise for helpfulness, and small conveniences like ice sales and a playground for children add to the practical setup.
For a different camping style, Spring Villa Campground provides an alternative experience less than three miles southwest.
