  Family Time Campground

  Break Out the Family Camping Here!

  This little gem is tucked away on the central-eastern side of Alabama, just a 20 or so minute drive from the AL-GA state line, just due south of Columbia, right off the Omusee Creek. Over in these parts you’ll find some solid nature to interact with, trails to hike and of course, all the fun and enjoyment you’d expect being this close to the water. 

  Let me share a bit about Family Time Campground: there’s a sweet little solar-heated pool that’s perfect for a classic sundowner (and not so great for swimming laps!), plenty of shaded and grassy areas for RV and trailers (22 spots in all), spacious long level lots in a private gated community, filtered water and free rentals, newly finished covered pavilion with about a half dozen brand new picnic tables that has a brand new BBQ, children’s playground, community firepit for s’mores and a fully functioning laundry facility. This RV site has full electrical, water and sewage hook-ups, free WiFi and there’s even a fully-stocked kitchen you can access while on site. For those that aren’t hauling their living room behind them, this property also has (3) bunk houses, (3) cabins, (4) camp rentals and even stationary RV’s for rent.

  Insider’s Tip? On Sunday’s this campground offers up "all-you-can eat" pancake breakfast for $4 – you can’t beat this! Of course, there is the famed Coheelee Creek Covered Bridge that apparently people come from all over to see. For a good spot to dine out at, I recommend Log Cabin Restaurant right across the AL-GA state line in nearby Blakely – they’ve got everything you could think of fried, as well as some things that shouldn’t be fried, but taste great regardless! Last tip – if you’re out to kayak or canoe, get out either early or late, as the current during the middle of the day can be quite strong. 

  Happy Camping!

  Ozark-Fort Rucker KOA

  Awesome stay

  My kids and I absolutely loved it here. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We did tent “glamping” so we had electric, water and wifi nearby but still enjoyed our time away from concrete buildings. We had a fire pit, picnic table, and parking to ourselves. The pool came in clutch since it is very humid and hot over there. It was nice, CLEAN and refreshing. My kids are not too big so we had enough space to play backyard games not sure there is enough grassy area for older kids or adults. You can walk around and down to the pond and check out the surroundings for added entertainment. The bathrooms and showers were tidy and clean. I really did love it here and based on my experience here I will be looking at other KOA Journeys to visit. My experience is based on a tent site and I’m fairly new to camping. Hope this helps!

  Seminole State Park Campground

  Nature lover’s paradise

  Wonderful state park in South Georgia! Our site was on the water and had beautiful sunset views. Newly renovated after Hurricane Michael, the upper loop had new gravel pads and plenty of space between sites. Great fire pit and grill combo along with a large and sturdy picnic table. The hiking trail just reopened and was an easy 2 miles. Tons of animal tracks to look for and identify! The playground close to the camping loop is nearly complete and looks super fun for the Littles. Bathhouse was brand new and showers were hot. Definitely coming back!

  Blue Springs State Park Campground

  A must stop on the way to the beach

  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

  Florida Caverns RV Resort

  Newer campground

  Newer RV park. Clean restrooms. Pool and dog park are some of the amenities. There is a boat ramp and docks/slips, but the lake was almost empty - no fault of the campground. Some sites are paved some are not. No privacy between sites. Electric capacity lacking. Only had an amp hookup but needed outlets for our popup. No fire rings - need to rent. There is a store/gas station at the front of the park. Would not stay again for personal preference.

  Blue Hole Campground — Florida Caverns State Park

  Caverns and Lagoon

  We were placed on the equestrian site with zero privacy. Never saw the other primitive sites, I guess they were full. Bathrooms were clean and the property was well maintain and far from the highway. Cavern tour was great but we loved the paddle through Blue Lagoon. Bring your kayak or rent one there, it's definitely worth it!

  Vortex Spring

  Horrible Camping Amenities

  Absolutely horrible service. They mostly cater to divers. The fire pits are full of trash, bathrooms look like they haven't been cleaned in years, and we didn't even have a picnic table at our site. We told them yesterday after we checked in and they said they would have someone bring one out. It's day two and still don't have one. Campground store employees are very rude and no help at all. We are not snobs by any means but we will never come back here. Absolutely worst place we have stayed at yet in our teardrop camper.

  Blue Hole Campground — Florida Caverns State Park

  Great!

  Great tent campground. Lots of privacy. Water spikes and grill and picnic table on site. The bath house was pretty clean though the shower head wasnt great. They were really close to the tent sites though. There's also a swimming hole right across the street from the tent sites which was also really nice! The caverns were beautiful. Will definitely go back!

  Kolomoki Mounds State Park Campground

  Labor Day trip

  We went here for a quick Labor Day trip. The campground was a small loop but the sites were large. The lake front sites were very nice but we couldn’t get one so we had to walk down to the common areas to access the lake but that was ok. There is a little boat ramp and I put in my kayak and paddled the lake. There is also a swimming beach which was nice with a trail through the woods to walk or ride bikes to it from the campground. There was a playground area here and in the actual campground area too. The park also had putt putt but we didn’t play since it was so hot during the day and it wasn’t open at night. The campground is part of a state park and the site of the Kolomoki Mounds which were neat. They have a museum and the building is built into the side of a partially excavated mound which was really cool. They also have a replica of a hut/dwelling like the ones that the previous Native Americans would have inhabited. The bathhouse was clean and the grounds were well kept. The park is in a VERY rural area so be prepared to drive a little ways to get to things. However, we did really enjoy it and would definitely go back again.
