Best RV Parks & Resorts near Anniston, AL

Several RV parks surround Anniston, Alabama, providing convenient options for motorhome travelers. CWGS Campground of Oxford offers year-round full hookup sites with 50-amp service and is big-rig friendly with pull-through sites that accommodate larger rigs. Scenic Drive RV Park and Campground features level gravel sites with water, electric, and sewer connections, making it suitable for overnight stays. Greensport RV Park and Campground, located in nearby Ashville, contains 179 sites with both 30-amp and 50-amp service options. The Tallapoosa River RV and Outdoor Center provides 32 spacious sites with full hookups east of Anniston. "We stayed at site 13, level gravel sites with picnic table on concrete pad, fire ring, FHU. Extended stays at the back of park and closer to hwy 20," noted one RV camper about CWGS Campground.

Cell service varies significantly throughout the region's RV parks, with T-Mobile reported as reliable at some locations while others experience spotty coverage. Most RV campgrounds in the area are pet-friendly and equipped with sanitary dump stations. Safe Harbor RV Park offers year-round access with big-rig friendly spaces that are "long and level" according to visitors, though it lacks shower facilities. Navigation to some parks may require careful planning, particularly when approaching Cheaha State Park area where steep mountain roads can challenge larger motorhomes. Reservation policies differ between parks - some accept walk-ins while others require advance booking. Many RV sites include picnic tables and fire rings, though Safe Harbor notably prohibits fires. During peak seasons, especially fall, occupancy rates increase substantially at the more scenic RV parks near Talladega National Forest.

    CWGS Campground of Oxford

    Camped here with RV purchase

    Stayed at site 13, level gravel sites with picnic table on concrete pad, fire ring, FHU. Extended stays at the back of park and closer to hwy 20. There is a nice dog park, playground, covered pavilion, laundry room, dated bathroom, but clean. Shirley reserved our spot, and helped us pull through,and hook up, with our new RV! There is a little path/bridge, so We walked over to Camping World to get our bigger RV. The next morning, we had a few questions, so the Camping World service employee, came over (on a golf cart)to answer them. We decided to stay another night, and it was easy enough for Shirley to extend our reservation. If we were in the area again we would go back. There is a lot to do in the area….Talladega National Forest, Talladega SuperSpeedway and Cheaha State Park.T-Mobile was good, and paid about $30 night with Good Sam Discount. This Campground is also known as CWGS Campground of Oxford.

    Upper Improved Campground — Cheaha State Park

    Great Hiking and Great views

    This park is located on the highest point in Alabama. It has a great camp store with most basic groceries, hotel, cabins/chalets, group lodge, restaurant with gorgeous views, pool, 6 acre lake ALONG with great hiking trails. There is also a dog park and in general this is a very pet friendly 🐶state park. (Bring the groceries you need- closest grocery store is a 20-30 min drive)and know that the restaurant is decent but it may have varying hours during off seasons.) . 🚍⛺️campground- there are two campgrounds with full hookups. The Upper campground at the top is the mountain near all the major trailheads, restaurant, camp store and pool. The Lower Campground at the bottom of the mountain is near the small lake with swimming area and walking trail around the lake. We stayed at the Upper and in February we had the whole campground to ourselves most of our 2 week stay. All the sites are updated and have water, 30/50 amp electric, sewer, picnic table and fire ring or grill. Bathrooms at upper level can be an uphill or downhill walk. *💲this state park has a $4.75 reservation fee and a 3.75% daily “resort fee” on your base campsite rate. Both of those are not deal breakers but good to know. (Especially since the pool is only open for a limited time)

    🏡 there are chalets and cabins. I felt the cabins had the better views than the chalet and more private but these are smaller and more rustic. When you are making reservations for a cabin or chalet be sure to check the occupancy rate for the cabin you choose- some are limited to 2 people and look👀 at the amenities of each cabin/chalet- some are quite rustic but descriptions are given. Good news is that they do have pet friendly cabins.

    🏕there are semi/primitive and backcountry style sites. ✏️Note that the semi primitive camp sites (the ones on Tower Road) don’t have a shower house for you to use- there is a bathroom available. If you plan to hike a lot and don’t want to drive your car- try to get sites on the upper part of park. (My personal pet peeve is driving daily to a trailhead when I am camping)

    📌There is also a hotel with motel like rooms (near the pool and restaurant) and you can even rent an entire lodge for groups that was very attractive from the outside (this was located at top of mountain near the overlook trail-not really walking distance to pool and restaurant)

    🥾hiking - 10.5 miles of hiking in the boundaries of the park with connectors to the Pinhoti. The hiking trails had spectacular views on both sides of the mountain. Hiking poles were helpful! While the .3 mile wooden boardwalk to Bald Rock is stroller and mobility challenged friendly, most of the other hikes were moderate to strenuous for the average person. For example- There is a one mile trail straight down the mountain to the lake and lower campground. That said, we loved the hiking here. Next time we plan to bring our larger back packs and do an overnight on a section of the Pinhoti. Did I mention how awesome the views were hiking?

    🚵 mountain biking- there are 5 trails that are multi use... and hikers must yield to bikers on these. While we were here there was a mountain biking race. 🚴‍♀️road biking- the roads in the park had some incline...but I was glad to have my bike to roam the upper part park where we camped. (We don’t bring a tow vehicle) My husband biked outside of the park and you can decide for yourself if you would have fun road biking here after you drive UP the mountain roads to the Visitor Center. *It is 3 miles from the visitor center/park entrance to the lower campground/lake area via non park roads. 🛶- we didn’t paddle here, it was not near our campground and it is only a 6 acre lake/pond. There is a swimming/wading.

    Happy Camping! Pamela and Keith

    Boaz RV Park

    Cheap rates, and a great location.

    This is a small rv park located in Boaz Al, its just down the street from the Boaz police station so its nice and quiet. They don't have a lot of amenities like pools, or playgrounds but its great if you just need a cheap place to stay. As of this review its $20 a night for either a 30 or a 50 amp hookup along with water and sewer. The monthly rates are $400 for 30 amp sites and $500 for 50 amp sites.

    Upper Improved Campground — Cheaha State Park

    Great Campground with Lots of Nature and Things to do

    On our trip to Cheaha State Park we stayed in the lower campground, which features very roomy RV sites, some with really nice views, and all with full hookups including power, water, and sewer.  There is no cable or wifi available however, and cell service is pretty spotty.  There is also an upper campground with RV sites in the park and separate tent and primitive camping sites available.

    The lower campground is right next to Cheaha Lake, which is a small lake, but large enough for some kayaking and features a sandy beach swimming area and a nice playground (see video).  There are also pavilions and picnic areas around the lake.  There is a nature center by the lake that has some interesting nature exhibits and a few live animals to check out.

    There are lots of great hiking trails, mostly toward the top of Mount Cheaha in the park itself, and there are several different overlooks with spectacular views.  The main overlook has an easy boardwalk trail that leads to it from the parking area and is wheelchair accessible.  There's also a pool, lodge, cabins, and a restaurant on the mountain in the park.

    The main road that leads to the park and campgrounds has some pretty steep and long uphill and downhill sections.  Nothing too crazy, but I would suggest that you make sure your tow vehicle can handle it without overheating the engine or transmission, especially in the heat of the summer.

    Lakeside Landing RV Park & Marina

    One and done

    The view is fantastic if you are lakeside- but it stops there. Most rentals are along one row and a couple of the lakeside sites. Sites are very unleveled with minimal gravel but almost all have a 6x9 concrete pad. No pool, no fire rings, spotty wifi and frequent brown outs on power. Both shower points smell horrible but appear clean otherwise. Lots of long-term vehicles. People are friendly and pets are welcome.

    Upper Improved Campground — Cheaha State Park

    Nice pull through

    Narrow twisting roads lead to the lower level camping area, nice pull through, wish there was more information about local attractions. We stayed 3 nights very quiet camp site. I appreciate the improvements in the Campground. Everyone we encountered was very nice and friendly. No cell service or wifi at the lower campground but good service at the upper areas.

    Little Tallapoosa Park

    Nice county park

    Nice big spaced out spots, that offer full hook ups. Friendly staff, good hiking trails, creeks for kids to play in. Pull through and back in paved sites. They also offer tent sites.

    Cons - have to call to book, weekend campers destroyed bathhouses, and lack of cleaning crew

    This is a great campground that has ONLY long term camping so you really get to know your neighbors. The power is not included but the prices are very reasonable.

    Noccalula Falls Park & Campground - TEMPORARILY CLOSED

    nice but cramped

    we stayed in a tent site in dec '22'' , the sites are very close together and the tent  site we were on hardly had enough space for our 3 person backpacking tent . there are fire pits, grills, and tables available on each site as well as water  . we appreciated the security gate and extremely clean and heated bathhouses with showers . the park has a nice playground and a pool we were unable to try during the winter months .  the campground is very close to town and as so expect alot of noise from traffic


Guide to Anniston

RV sites near Anniston, Alabama provide camping options along the Coosa and Tallapoosa River waterways. The region sits at the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains with elevations ranging from 700 to 1,000 feet, creating varied terrain for campers. Summer temperatures typically reach 85-95°F with high humidity, while winter nights can drop to freezing levels in December through February.

What to do

Kayaking on the Tallapoosa River: Tallapoosa River RV and Outdoor Center offers river access with boat rentals. "Had a blast kayaking. Great stop! Well kept sites," notes a camper at this 32-site facility east of Anniston.

Fishing at Greensport: Greensport RV Park and Campground offers lake access for anglers. "I've been boating and fishing. There's plenty to do. Don't forget crappie fishing is just around the corner," reports William M., who spent over two months at the park.

Hiking in Talladega National Forest: Located within 40 minutes of most Anniston-area campgrounds. "There is not a lot of privacy but it is an ok trade for having such easy access to I20," mentions a reviewer about Safe Harbor RV Park's proximity to outdoor recreation areas.

Swimming access: GrandStand RV Park provides pool facilities for cooling off during hot Alabama summers. "A key bonus to this site is the pool which is very necessary when camping in Alabama in the summer," notes a reviewer who visited during race season.

What campers like

Spacious sites: Time Away RV Resort receives praise for its layout. "This is a really nice RV park that provides close access to the racetrack. It is wonderfully taken care of and has recently been renovated."

What you should know

Terrain varies by campground: Shadyoaks Campground provides more natural settings. "The campground is a slightly wooded large grassy area where you can park your RV or set up a tent. They have a nice bathroom facility and the campground is kept very clean."

Weekend gates close at some parks: Check access policies before booking. "Also, if you are out after 9pm the gate will be closed. Make sure you check your email or text messages as the gate is opened with a QR code that is sent to you," advises a Greensport camper.

Highway noise affects some locations: Scenic Drive RV Park and Campground sits near major roads. "Basically a big gravel parking lot with hookups. Bathrooms were clean people were nice. A decent place to stop for a night sleep but not to hang out for very long," reports Rick about his experience.

Shaded sites matter: Look for tree cover during hot months. "I was also a fan of how shaded most of the sites are which is a key thing in Alabama," shares a camper about Shadyoaks Campground.

Tips from RVers

Level site selection: Many parks offer gravel sites with varying levelness. "Sites are large. Easy to get in. Nothing fancy. Close to stuff to do. Friendly staff," notes a reviewer about Scenic Drive RV Park's pull-through spaces.

Extended stay options: Safe Harbor RV Park has long-term residents. "I've been here for the month of April it's on the water and Good people around no washer and dryer but the laundry mat is less than 5 miles away in both directions," shares Calvin M., highlighting practical considerations for extended stays.
