    Bama RV Station

    Good For Quick Overnight Stay

    Literally right off the interstate at Tuscaloosa. Much lower noise level than I expected. Definitely a parking lot, without trees. We are in site 9, pretty level gravel site, electric and water hookup only. 2 dump stations are available, 2 dog parks. 30 dollars a night. Mostly long term parking. No firepits or picnic tables. Check in by phone, no office.

    Deerlick Creek

    Awesome little campground

    Nice level concrete pads with awesome shade. Bath house stayed clean. Nice 1/2 mile asphalt bike/walking trail. Hiking trail with hills and valleys skirting the lake. Boat ramp with easy access to the lake. Convenient access to Tuscaloosa for supplies, eating or just a change of scenery. Some site are smaller than others and some are pull through. Highly recommend.

    Cherokee Campground

    More of a Long Term Living Area

    Most of the pads were filled with long-term residents. The owners were very nice. The rate was reasonable. Our gravel pad was not wide enough to be a) level and b) slide/awning out at the same time. The electric hook-up was at the opposite end of the pad from the water and sewer hook-ups. Some neighbors were friendly, others were a bit suspicious of us as interlopers based on how many times they walked past our area. Overall, would only stay again in a pinch.

    Sunset RV

    Bright light and road noise

    Stopped for an overnight on our way home to Atlanta from a trip out west. Not much of a park. Most sites are long term or semi permanent. Only 6 available for regular RV. Water, 30/50 amp electric & sewer There is a small laundry room The office wasn’t open but we had reservations and had received an email about our site and directions. WiFi was poor. It is right off of I-20 so there was lots of road noise all night. There was a very bright vapor light above our site that lit up the whole area. There is a small dog walking area.

    Moundville Archaeological Park Univ of Alabama

    I love this place. If you are into ancient Indian mounds and seeing the artifacts they have collected this is a place you want to visit.

    Small well appointed museum to see. Information panels at the important mounds. Since we visited last year some improvements have been made to the camp sites. Level sites. 4 pull through with full hook ups for bigger rigs. This is a small campground, all sites have water and electricity with dump site as you leave camping area. Also much needed improvements to bath house.

    Forkland Campground

    Nice wooded campground

    This was a pretty cool campground tucked away in the woods. Our site was shady most of the day and well spaced from other sites. Some sites have stairs to the water, to a beach big enough for one person to fish or to tie up a jon boat.

    There is no firewood for sale here. The bathrooms were very clean and a laundry room (closed due to COVID). Lots of fireflies and some mean mosquitoes. Early in the morning you can see some huge paddlefish jumping in the water.

    30 and 50 amp power, water hookup (be sure to have a pressure regulator) and the dump station is in the middle of the campground.

    Jennings Ferry

    Nice small COE park

    Close to my home base. Nice level site. Clean. Friendly hosts. One mile from small store with essentials. 7 miles from supermarket. No bad sites here. #22 gets satellite year round. Fish from site #13. Only reason for 4 stars is no FHU’s. Be sure to try the food at Roebuck Landing restaurant (1 mile away).

    Tannehill Ironworks Historical State Park Campground

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 — Great mix of nature, history, and family fun

    We stayed at Tannehill Ironworks Campground for a long weekend and had a great experience. We arrived late on a Thursday night and appreciated that the ranger is on-site 24/7, since the campground doesn’t take reservations. The process is easy—you just pull in, find a site, and register/pay the next morning. It was a little hard to find a spot in the dark, but that was on us.

    There are three main campground areas. • Campgrounds 1 and 2 offer full hook-ups, with many outer sites backing up to a scenic creek. • Campground 3 has water and electric only.

    We stayed in site 122 in Campground 1, right on the creek. The sites are all gravel with picnic tables (a little worn—we brought our own table setup). Ours was pretty spacious, and since it wasn’t full, we had empty sites in front of and behind us, which made it feel even more open.

    The creek is peaceful and adds great ambiance, but there’s no designated access area for wading or swimming. That said, lots of kids were playing in the water right near their sites.

    T-Mobile service was decent—we were able to use our hotspot to stream TV at night. There’s no public Wi-Fi, but we didn’t miss it. We didn’t use the dump stations, but they looked clean and easy to access.

    Check-out time is 1:00 PM, and we didn’t see an official check-in time or posted quiet hours. The campground was fairly calm and relaxed, especially at night.

    The best part of Tannehill is everything there is to do. We brought bikes and explored miles of trails, all clearly marked by difficulty level. The park is also full of historical buildings like an old mill, furnace, blacksmith shop, and restored cabins (some are available to rent). There’s a Sunday church service at 9AM, playgrounds, picnic pavilions, a general store, a miniature train ride, and even an ice cream shop.

    If you visit during one of their Trade Days weekends, you’re in for a treat—it’s like a huge flea market with over 400 vendors, food stands, and all kinds of local treasures.

    Tannehill is a unique blend of history, nature, and activities for all ages. We’ll definitely be back and would recommend it to anyone looking for a laid-back getaway with lots to explore!

    Moundville Archaeological Park

    Great campground with lots of history

    This is a great campground managed by the University of Alabama. It is on the site of the Moundville Indian mound complex, from the Mississippian period.

    There are several camp sites, most with electric and water, some have sewer. There is a central bath house, which is closed in winter. However the campground is open all year. There is a dump station as well.

    The museum is very interesting and the park offers several events throughout the year based on Native American culture.


Guide to Buhl

RV campgrounds near Buhl, Alabama serve travelers along I-20 and I-22 corridors with overnight accommodations at varying price points. Located in west-central Alabama, Buhl sits approximately 10 miles from Tuscaloosa in terrain characterized by gentle hills and agricultural landscapes. Most campgrounds in this region maintain level sites on gravel or concrete pads to accommodate the area's clay soil that becomes problematic during rainfall.

What to do

Explore wooded trails: Junior Beasley's Togetherness Works RV Park offers 20 acres of hikeable woodland trails. "He invited us to hike the trails there. It was wonderful to chat with this gentleman about his park which he converted from natural surroundings mostly by himself," notes Jerry W.

Train hunting dogs: Hat Creek RV Park caters to specialized outdoor enthusiasts. "This is pure heaven for me. Out in the middle of cow pastures and rolling hills. It is a paradise for hunting/birddog trainers," writes Lisa J. The open terrain provides ample space for canine training activities.

Attend Alabama football games: Stay close to Bryant-Denny Stadium during football season at Coaches Corner RV Park. "100+ site campground used by RV's during football season sitting less than a mile from campus. Owner lives on property and is extremely helpful," reports Ray S. Sites fill quickly during home game weekends.

What campers like

Budget-friendly rates: Overnight stays at Sunset RV offer economical full-hookup options. "Stayed for one night. Well maintained, level sites. Easy on and off the freeway. Very basic and clean," notes Gus S. Sites typically range from $29-45 per night with most offering cable TV connections.

Pet-friendly facilities: Bama RV Station accommodates travelers with pets through multiple designated areas. "Quiet campground with 3 dog parks level lots. Numerous sewer as well as non sewer lots," writes Ronnie H. The three separate dog parks allow for different sized animals.

Wildlife encounters: Secluded sites offer opportunities for animal sightings. "Our dog was happy and made friends w/ the resident deer. Don't hesitate on this place," shares Annaliese M. about her experience at Togetherness Works RV Park. The wooded setting attracts various wildlife throughout the seasons.

What you should know

Variable maintenance levels: Some facilities show signs of aging infrastructure. At Candy Mountain RV Resort, a camper noted: "The facilities were probably lovely back in the day but we still enjoyed walking around exploding the grounds." Maintenance standards vary widely between parks.

Limited amenities at stopover sites: Many Buhl area RV parks function primarily as overnight accommodations. "Basically an RV park. All very big class A motor homes. No public bathrooms just a couple construction potties," reports Stephen R. about Coaches Corner RV Park.

Seasonal mud issues: During wet periods, unpaved areas become challenging. "If you come during wet season like I did just be prepared to deal with black silk mud and red clay mud and I mean lots of it," warns Lisa J. about conditions at Hat Creek RV Park. Spring and fall typically bring increased rainfall.
