    Oak Mountain State Park Campground

    Wonderful updates

    I grew up near oak mountain and it’s always been a decent campground for the price. After we purchased our first camper this summer we decided to go give it a shot at Oak Mountain before we went further out. We were unaware that they had completely revamped the entire place. The bathhouses were awesome and clean as were the laundry rooms. They had plenty of supplies in the store if you forgot something. We will be returning during the fall. Sites are pretty spacious and well maintained.

    Beautiful campground year round

    Having visited 3 times now, twice before the renovations and now once after, I can confidently say I love this park! I have previously primitive camped here and now camper at a full hookup RV site. Tent sites range from "water in vicinity," "water at site," and "water and 20 amp power at site." Rv sites are water and electric or full hook up. I think all RV sites are now 50/30/20 but I'm not certain. There is a dump station near the exit of the campground. Sites are mostly level/slight grade but found that not all drain very well when it rains, including our site a17.

    The park has so many different activities including -Hiking -Bmx trails -Swimmimg -Archery range And more I can't even remember.

    Flip side watersports operates at 2 locations and paid activities include -wake boarding -Aqua Park And rentals of -Kayaks -stand up paddle boards -paddle boats And -Canoes.

    There are things to do year round and the weather was great for mid July.

    Very friendly host, well setup, Would recommend!

    Stayed here on an overnight while driving through the state. Great site tucked in the woods, very private area. Huge field with little light pollution to stargaze. Very friendly host. Would Recommend.

    Difficult site

    Deep ditches around my site made it very, very difficult to park my van - terrified that one of my wheels would fall off the edge. Don’t think I will be back.

    Nice new tent campground

    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.

    Beautiful Campground

    This state park has it all. A place to swim, numerous hiking trails, playgrounds, etc. The newly remodeled campground is spectacular. The pads are super level (at least in A16. Small tent spots sprinkled in. Saw security and police several times just passing through to check on folks. Love that. We will be back many more times for sure.

    Lake Guntersville State Park Campground

    Beautiful State Park, something for everyone!

    Visited Lake Guntersville State Park, for the day. After taking our granddaughter to Screaming Eagle Zip-line Adventures, located at the gorgeous Lodge, we visited the Campground…and it’s amazing! At the office, we were helped by Rocky, who was friendly and knowledgeable! We received CG info and a map, as well as rates. We are already planning our next trip to visit! The general store was stocked with necessities, as well as souvenirs. Of course we had to get some ice cream! There are several types of sites, monthly, cabins and tent camping. There are boat slips (local rentals) and a Pavilion on the water, basketball and tennis courts, playground, shady dog park, splash pad, and clean bathhouses. Firewood and ice can be purchased at the store. There are also many trails to hike and bike . It is easy to see that this SP is well maintained! The SP Lodge is worth visiting, which has a nice restaurant. LGSP has a golf course, and the quaint town is close by and has shopping and several restaurants.

    Beautiful County Park, near Lake Guntersville SP, on TN River

    Marshall County Park, is easy to find/see right on 431. Nothing fancy, but well maintained property, and plenty of room for parking and boating.

    Nice site

    This is a motocross, zip line and paint ball camp. The people that checked us in were great. Charge was $5 per person. So $11.00 for us. The sites are grassy. We are the only ones here so we pulled up to the bath house. They will be out to turn on the hot water in a bit. Quiet. Relaxing after a day of seeing the sites. I have 2 bars on my Verizon.

    Only a small area is for short term , no wifi

    No wifi per office with no known date of repair. Relatively quiet, lots of vehicle traffic and golf carts. Office staff is very helpful and friendly. Majority of park is longterm. Dog friendly, no dog park at location. Close to shopping but far enough away for quiet.

    Corinth Recreation Area

    Worst camping experience ever

    The natural beauty in that area is amazing however the camp ground in firefly loop leaves little to be desired and the camp host/hostess are extremely rude. Electric sites are advertised that they accommodate 2 tents however they do not. There is very little area to set up and the gravel is like concrete. There is grass and they don’t tell you a head of time but you can’t set up on the grass unless you are in the tent camping area. It’s is overpriced and poorly staffed.

    Plenty good enough for a long weekend

    We visited Honeycomb a few days before Thanksgiving and had a good time.

    PROs: • Beautiful views from lakefront sites • not crowded, very quiet in mid-November • hard packed gravel pad was level left-to-right, no leveling blocks under tires needed • easy driving distance to lots of local activities/attractions

    CONs: • only one working bathroom/shower house…could be an issue when the campground is crowded considering their are no sewage hookups on site • sites are pretty close together, not much room for outdoor family activities • WIFI (extra charge) was very inconsistent

    Great Campground on Beautiful Lake

    We stayed three nights in primitive camping and it was fantastic. Our site was right on the water and far away from any other campers. The RV camping is not as secluded. Bath houses were very clean and tons of fun things for kids to do around the park.

    Run by tyrants!

    First, I’ve stayed here many times tent camping with more than one tent on one site with no issues. We took a camper this time and met up with some family who would be staying in a tent. We set up site and hung up a hammock, and within minutes, an employee came and rudely told us our set up wasn’t allowed. We had to take down our hammock (never had that happen anywhere else before), and forced us to pay an extra $75 to rent the neighboring site for our family to set up their tent for the weekend. When they came back around, they said, “You didn’t have to move your tent, you just had to rent the extra site.” It made zero sense, especially when we had noted at reservation that we’d have more than one vehicle, a tent, a camper, and 4 adults + 3 kids. Next came check out. We waited for 3 hours for our turn to use the dump site, we were all packed up and ready to go at 9:30am. To be such a large park, more than one dump site is needed. There’s also a ton of traffic going in and out, so it wasn’t super quiet or anything. We won’t be back, it’s overrated, over priced, and run by rude people.

    Backcountry Site — Oak Mountain State Park

    A family tradition

    I’ve been going here since I was a kid and it’s one of my favorite places in the world. You’ll never run out of things to do between the endless hiking trails, the museum of wildlife, and the wildlife rescue center. There’s an archery station within the park and a petting farm. The campground is easily navigated with multiple bathhouses per campground so you’ll always have one nearby.

    The campground is wooded with electric and water hookups . Very nice!

    The campground is very nice and woodsy.  The campsites have water and electric hookups.  They have nice paddocks for your horses.  The multiple trails are so beautiful .  I have been here many times.

    Big Wills Creek Campground and Tubing

    Below expectations but with some work this place could be really good.

    The Good:

    The staff member that checked us in was really friendly and polite. She was a delight to talk to and did a great job explaining the information we needed to know. 

    The C57 lot is right beside the dam and put in area for tubing. It was nice to sit out back and hear the water rushing through the opening in the dam. 

    The site had 50 and 30 amp service, water and sewer. Everything worked great. The site was pretty close to level. 

    After the tubers were done for the day, the creek was a pretty quiet area. The fish were biting and several folks pulled up some nice bass throughout the stay. 

    Tubing is included with the stay.

    The Bad:

    The roads are gravel (well mostly dirt) and are full of potholes. They aren't maintained very well at all. 

    Coming into the park you pass an area with a bunch of full-time campers sitting nearly on top of each other. It's a rough looking area that you will need to pass by with entry or exit. 

    The grass wasn't maintained very well and there were clippings blown everywhere. The picnic table was covered, there were piles of grass all over and the grass / weeds on the walk down to the creek were knee high. 

    The firepit was full of trash and glass. I didn't even bother with it. It was also closer to my neighbor than my campsite. His firepit was an old rim.

    Very little gravel to park the RV on. Mostly grass. 

    No room between campers. My neighbors awning was basically on top of my hookups. 

    Despite a lengthy list of rules, I didn't see any being enforced. Neighbors were shooting fireworks, open glass containers all around the water, no quiet time enforcement, etc...

    Amazing Campground

    We are staying here for several months as we just sold our house and will be traveling FT. Rusty and the entire team have been great to work with! The RV park is great with all the trees - they are adding another 70 sites in the back with a ton of new amenities! Washer/dryer available for $2 per load!! Only a few minutes to Guntersville and the lake! You can walk the lake, go grab a bite to eat or go down to City Harbor! We camped at Georgia Mountain RV Resort in a Fifth Wheel.

    Primitive, but not

    Brian is a super cool guy. We are going on our 3rd week here. We had a house fire fathers day and are permanently displaced. Instead of replacing all our crap, we invested in camping. We want to travel and see our amazing country. I figured if we camped primitive, we would know how we would test and can prepare for our adventure. Brian has been very helpful and has let us do just about anything we have needed to set up and be comfortable. He does have air BNB about a hundred yards away. He has only asked that we do not interrupt that. Keep it clean and not ridiculously noisy is all he has asked. The spot we chose is closer to road. There is some noise from traffic, but we are not phased. There isn't utility hook up, but he allowed us to get water when needed. We have our 2 pups with us. They are loving this! There is a dollar general and gas stations close if we need supplies. Thanks to Brian, we have really been able to have a great test run with our camping skills. I'm really glad we found this place. Whenever we roll back through this area, this will definitely be our go to if Brian is still the owner of this property. We have really been enjoying our stay.
