GuideWe picked a pull through spot so it was very level. There were walking paths out to an island and we enjoyed our stroll around that little island. We only stayed one night but it was a pleasant stop on our journey.
ScoutSpacious sites,they sell Texas Longhorn beef onsite.
ScoutDirections on the dirt AND Google take you to an outdated, run down housing complex that's really sketchy looking. No campsite, bathroom, etc there.
ScoutAfter almost seven years at Campout Alabama, I’ve stayed quiet about why I left. But watching one of the owners publicly boast about “new money” while remembering what went on behind the scenes is too much to swallow.
I remember credit cards declining when we needed supplies for his own business. I remember us practically begging for chlorine for the pool. I remember power lines in pine trees and box fans being used to cool breaker panels. That’s what comes to mind when I see the displays of wealth.
A mansion doesn’t impress me when the people keeping your business running are asking for basic supplies and payment. Bragging about wealth under those circumstances is embarrassing.
Before delivering another speech about “new money,” try explaining why the basics were such a struggle. Chlorine. Supplies. Paying people for their work. These are basic responsibilities of owning a business.
I cannot recommend Campout Alabama under this ownership. Almost seven years gave me plenty of time to form that opinion, and no amount of bragging changes what I experienced and so many others experience!
GuideWe stayed one night on the way through to Florida. It’s like being in the middle of a trailer park. Not a 5 star location as shown and notice the dates and wording of the previous reviews. Dates are all close and wording very similar. Seems like someone’s neighborhood with kids wandering around at night. Pluses: Our site was sand / gravel pull through, had full hook up. Price is low.
ScoutJust be forewarned this is NOT a normal camping experience. By far.
Firstly, there are no actual accommodations as advertised. The "camping" you will experience consists of no primitive sites, no RV hookups, no amenities to speak of, and many other inconsistencies despite what's being presented here. There are no private areas even for changing your clothes much less anything else. As it sits beside a major county roadway with a public boat ramp with roadside public parking making any chance of alone time impossible most days. You CANNOT per county ordinances have any unregulated fires or burning due to the lake being EPA protected. If you get caught disturbing any of the flora or fauna you are subject to possible fines or prosecution by FWC. Not one stump is to be disturbed at all. The advertisement is misleading regarding this property. For the amount of money being charged you may as well go a few more miles and get a room at a motel. It would be cheaper if you did. I gave two stars because of the lake itself. Which BTW, is NOT actually "visible " from this property itself. The best viewing and admiring is better at the PUBLIC areas that are county owned and somewhat maintained. The lake itself is public use for everyone. Not to mention that this property owner has a negative reputation for shady practices in the local area. Any observations of illegal practices should be reported to law enforcement.
GuideQuite camping during the week day saw a bald eagle and a blonde squirrel
ScoutWhat can be said that I'm sure hasn't already been said. Outback Springs RV Park in Bonifay Florida is one beautiful place. Magnificent pool/hot tub area, fantastic duck pond with a fountain in the center of it, newly paved roads throughout, stellar staff and so much attention to detail in the grounds/landscaping. My husband and I found this gem during an online search for nearby campgrounds related to where we live. We have visited Outback Springs several times since and we absolutely hate leaving. Out of curiosity I asked a staff member ( Debbie) if I could take a look at the inside of the only cabin that's offered and was completely blown away by what I saw. This cabin is absolutely amazing, full kitchen, huge separate living room and a very well appointed bedroom and bathroom. I had the privilege of finally getting to meet the owners during our stay this weekend and immediately got attached to them. So very friendly and accepting of our lifestyle. The RV sites are large, level and for the most part very shady. The staff is amazing, the clubhouse/on-site store are out of this world and there is even a large separate clubhouse that has everything anyone needs from movies, books, board games, pool table and dartboard. Free coffee every morning and if you don't want to cook in your RV no worries, you can cook in the full kitchen that's available for free in there as well. Got pets? No problem because there is also a very nice dog park on site as well. I could go on and on about this place but I'm sure you get the picture lol. If your travels take you anywhere near Bonifay Florida Outback Springs RV Resort is the little slice of Australia that must be on your list of places to visit. Give them a try, I promise you will not be disappointed. Mike in the office will take good care of you and if you see a lady moving at light speed that's Debbie. She'll make double sure that all of your needs are met and any exceptions are exceeded. 100% the place to be!!!!!
ScoutVery quite, right off the interstate and less than a mile from the Ponce de Leon springs. Super friendly and helpful owner, full hookups and very easy access and parking. Walking distance from a Pilot truck stop, family dollar and dollar general. Would definitely come back
