Best Campgrounds near Alexander City, AL

We had a nice stay in site 67. The campground was renovated sometime in the not too distant past with large concrete pads, as well as water and electrical hook ups. Many sites have full hook ups, all at a reasonable price. It seems like they were able to retain all the trees when they put the pads in, which retains the wooded feel of the campground. Some sites are right on the water. The bathrooms were large but could have been better maintained. All around a very nice campground.

Booked sites with friends months ago for a one night stay on the way to Columbus, MS. As such, we were able to book FHU sites along the water. Very long and level concrete pad. Great Verizon signal and numerous free digital TV stations to choose from.

This review is based on a short-term versus destination campground (CG). When we made reservations, we were told to only take exit 179 off I-65 and follow the GPS directions, as any other way will take you on narrow roads, including gravel roads. We drove the 14 miles from the exit to the CG with no issues. We were greeted by Don on his golf cart, and his wife, Gigi, checked us in at the office. We received a great rundown of the local area, including restaurant suggestions that looked really good. Unfortunately, we were only overnighting here and did not have the chance to enjoy Prattville. We were led to pull through site A with FHUs. Getting to our site was a little narrow but very doable. The site was level and pleasantly spacious both at and between sites. The utilities are in the middle of the pad. We were able to position so we could get to both black tanks with a 10’ sewer hose. We got 2 bars on Verizon, and their WiFi was better than most CGs this size. Both Don and his wife came by at separate times to ensure we were settled in, to include asking if we needed propane. The CG is mainly full-timers that include a small community of retired military. They have dedicated sites for short-term stays. There were transient workers as we heard the familiar Cummings diesel start-ups in the wee hours of the morning. There is some road noise, but not bad. They have a nice dog park. As we travel through the area, we will place this CG on our return list.

This was our second time staying here. The sites have full hookups. The lake is right in front of the RV. The people that work here are very very nice. It’s a small campground, but I would stay here again.

Older facilities but the views make up for it. Water and power year round even in winter. Some spots are a little closer than others but most have woods in between so they are somewhat private. The lake is down right now because they are repairing the dam so it was fun to walk along the banks.

Nice campground with large, level, full hookup sites. Site 15 is easy back in and large.

Love Gunter Hill! ❤️. Wide open and spacious lots here have us spoiled. Clean bathhouse and laundry plus on site boat ramp to the river make it one of our favorite places. Walking trails are great too!

Good lake access/sunset views/boat ramp. Tends to be quite a busy campground, so getting a prime spot in peak season can be difficult. Management noted to be on the stricter side.

Lovely campgrounds on Lake West Point, less campers and fewer, more spaced out lots. Great fun on the water during the spring and summer

Great for spring/summer camping, kind camp hosts, and great fun paddleboarding and jetskiing on Lake West Point. My family’s go-to spot!

I enjoyed camping here it's nice owner's nice very respectful they have a pond and you could drive your golf cart all around the campsite to use your ATV UTV enjoy the pond as a catch and release best place ever thank you for having me.

We are local (30ish miles) but love to just escape here when we have 3 or 4 days and don't want to travel long distance.  Perfect spot to be closer to the river in the summer and in the woods in the fall.  Catoma loop sites are full hookup with concrete pads including both back in and pull through options.  Antioch Loop does not have sewer hookup and these sites are gravel lots but offer some amazing water views.

The host is so welcoming! Clean restrooms. The baby goats were a fun little surprise!

Easy to find off of main hwy. Grassy area with lots of trees and shade. Campfires are permitted but, you meed to bring your own wood. Campground host are helpful with questions about the area. Close to boat launches, fuel and restaurants. Talladega Super Speedway close by. Enjoyable stay at this campground.

This has a good road and decent open spots to set-up. Overlanders (w/rtt) will be the most happy. Open areas have tall grass a but, but some have enough pine trees the pine needles make for better ground camping. Small camper trailers could probably make it too. Just be mindful of turn around spots.

I arrived late so harder to find spots. Mid-week so no one else here.

-Lacked good signage on the last turn. -No facilities (as expected) -Open to sky (took awesome star pics here)
