Camping near Birmingham, South of Alexander City on Alabama Highway 128 you’ll find one of the largest state-owned campgrounds in the United States, Wind Creek State Park. However, that distinction is not the only thing that makes Wind Creek special. Wind Creek State Park is the public's access to Lake Martin. Wind Creek’s 1,445 scenic acres hug the shoreline of beautiful Lake Martin making the park an angler’s paradise. Crappie, bluegill and striped bass are just a few of the species the lake has to offer. Several fishing tournaments are scheduled at the park each year. If you're in the mood to test your nerves of steel, journey to the "Chimney Rock" area of Lake Martin. This is one of the hidden gems of the lake. After you test your nerves of steel, take a relaxing visit to Wind Creek State Park's North Picnic Area and enjoy some swimming and fishing on beautiful Lake Martin. After a full day at Wind Creek State Park and Lake Martin, take advantage of the park's only dairy creem, Creem @ The Creek for great food and beverages. The park’s 586 campsites are spread over 320 acres and offer ample opportunities to enjoy a variety of outdoor activities. Campsites include 102-30 amp waterfront campsites, 18-30 amp sewer waterfront campsites, 211-30 amp sewer campsites, 216-30 amp base campsites. For guests who prefer to stay in a camping cabin, the park has seven camping cabins to choose from, camping cabin 2 is handicap accessible. Each air conditioned cabin has a kitchenette and a private bathroom. Guests will need to bring their own bed linens, towels, cooking and eating utensils. The 39 premium campsite amenities include; water, sewer, 50/30/20 amp electrical, water front access, and TV service. Three of the newly renovated sites are handicap accessible. Bathhouse and playground facilities are conveniently located throughout the park. Separate from the above campsites we have an area restricted to equestrian camping.

Nice campground with large, level, full hookup sites. Site 15 is easy back in and large.

Love Gunter Hill! ❤️. Wide open and spacious lots here have us spoiled. Clean bathhouse and laundry plus on site boat ramp to the river make it one of our favorite places. Walking trails are great too!
LegendAmazing cg! Site Catoma 33. Back in site water behind. But cliff is too intense to go down. Gorgeous site, huge, shady, and across from restrooms. Boat ramp. Rode bikes around, but not many places to go besides cg. Friendly hosts and great place!
RangerWow, this is such a pretty campground! Our site is absolutely huge! I absolutely love all of the trees!! Unfortunately, it’s still 97° out. 🤣 We are in the shade for most of the day. With a fan, it wasn’t too bad sitting outside in the shade. I am so excited to see the lightning bugs. We don’t have them in my part of FL.
We have one bathhouse near our site (across from site 34), which appears to be older. I do love that the water is regulated and will only be on for a short amount of time. The lights have a motion sensor, which is a great idea. Unfortunately as I was getting dressed, the light turned off and wouldn’t turn back on. I had to open the door and flail around to get it to turn back on. Sorry for anyone who may have witnessed that. lol I was covered up, I promise. The water did not drain where the changing area is. The water just puddled there. We ran across the bathhouse by site 71 and that one is way better. It has AC too, which was nice in this heat. Yes, we use the showers at campgrounds. This also has washers and dryers, but both washers are broken. 😞 Our RV shower is really small and I like to actually move my arms around while showering. Please don’t criticize us for our decision.
Our unfortunate event: while sitting outside, something smell really rancid. Unfortunately, people before us lost their dog. We walked down to look at the water and that’s when we discovered the body. 🥺 I called the front office and they were able to confirm that it was the lost dog. We were unable to sit outside most of the time because of the decay smell drifting up to our site. We hoped the ranger would have come here to pick up the body for the people, but they never showed up. Not the camp hosts responsibility at all and I’m not blaming them. I hope the owners were able to get some closure, but I can’t imagine how they feel.
LegendThis cg is amazing! We were in Catoma Loop. Huge sites, water in back, 50 amp, FHU. Restroom good condition and directly across from us. Very well maintained and friendly hosts. Very quiet. Plenty of walking, and biking. Has a boat launch. Definitely stay here again.

Nestled back in the woods this hidden gem is a find! Very clean, friendly staff, tons of free activities with stay, and fun for the entire family!

Ultra clean Good Sam campground located just off I-65. Staff was wonderful and engaging. Expect a former Marine to escort you to your site, rain or shine. It was pouring buckets when we arrived and he insisted on taking us literally across the street from the camp store to ensure we had everything we needed.
All lots appeared to be pull thru and level. Due to rain, we kept our Airstream connected to the truck and just connected water and electricity. Leveling was minimal (fore/aft) with no need for blocks or boards.
Recommend staying in sites closer to camp store, as they are farthest from interstate. We barely heard it from site 2.
Laundry room was clean and available to wash/dry lots of towels due to rain and wet dog. Water pressure in campground is 80 psi.
Large fenced dog park at north end and plenty of green space for walking your puppy. Just be aware there are rabbits all over the place.
Propane is available on site and the camp store has a little bit of everything. And there’s a Love’s truck stop at the exit as well.
Great spot for an overnight stay on your trip. You won’t find a nicer staff or a cleaner campground!a

 this is a great campsite. You might need four-wheel-drive to get up to the ruins, but maybe not. Mary the caretaker of the area could easily tell you and is a great communicator and very helpful. I highly recommend this area. 
Ranger
But also poorly signed and the front desk is pretty unhelpful. She asked if I had been here before and I said no and yet she never explained there was a code to get in. Frustrating at best. It is a huge campground, can't imagine the number of people in the summer. Seems I drove past some wilderness areas and hikes on the way in. We won't get to explore them on this visit.
TravelerWe stayed here from 29 Apr - 13 May 2023. We originally reserved a spot for 1 week but,had such a positive experience, we extended it for another week. We were in Spot #15 which sits directly in front of one of the several bodies of water on-site. Kickback sports a pool, laundry facility, game room, general store, large tv room, hiking/bike trails, large water slide (separate from pool), and a very strong wifi signal. The entire staff was extremely courteous and very helpful. Already looking forward to our next stay there!
GuideRight off of 65, this was a perfect place for an overnight. All the spots are pull through, gravel, and full hookup. Easy in and out. Very quiet campground despite being able to see the interstate.
TravelerWe love this campground! Archery, fishing, playgrounds, hiking and so much fun!
ScoutEverything is perfect. Clean campsites with power and water and fire rings, near by bait store that sells a lot more than just bait. The park rangers and staff are here help and friendly. Restrooms and showers are spotless. The views are amazing.
GuideSome of the nicer folks you will ever get to meet. They understand hospitality!!!!!
ScoutVery quiet peaceful campground on the wooded shores of the Alabama River. Plenty of level sites. Bathroom and showers centrally located.
TravelerVery clean campground. Stroller friendly for the most part - we took many walks around! The marina store has tons of useful items that you could forget to bring along with alcohol. The waterfront view was gorgeous! We will be visiting again soon!
ScoutTent camping with family during Hurricane evacuation. Beautiful park, numerous bath houses, laundry, camp store, playgrounds, mini golf, and so much more. Secluded campground with RV and tent sites right on Lake Martin.
GuideWe broke up a trip from Florida to Tennessee with a stop at Wind Creek. Very large campground with lots of amenities including Sewer hook ups. They could use better signage directions. We would go back.
GuideWe arrived and were welcomed by the owner who was very helpful and incredibly friendly. She directed us to our beautiful site right on the river
So quiet and secluded it felt like we had the whole site to our selves.
Fun park for the kids to play on.
TravelerStayed here while grandson played Allstars in Smith Station Al . Nice small park with lots to do feom bike trails to swimming and waterfalls
ScoutReal nice campground 30 and 50 amp sites and sewer
TravelerEverything was so green and beautiful. Was able to accommodate a same day reservation and late check in. Clean restrooms, and nice accommodations. Although we just stayed one night, our morning walk to the lake was a great way to start the day!
TravelerFirst time to visit this park. Lots of playgrounds and activities for the kids. Loved the archery range as well. Will definitely be back soon.
ScoutStayed at Wind creek and the atmosphere was wonderful. Lots of fun trails to hike. Located right on beautiful lake Martin there's plenty of great fishing. Even has a pier to fish from. There's a great ice cream and place to get burgers by the pier too. They even have a zip line. Loved it here. Very convenient to Alexander city as well, that has a quaint downtown and a Walmart if you forgot anything. Highly recommend!
GuideNice campground easy to find and just off of I 85. Large spots and full hookups. Kind of tight entry but my 108 wide camper made it. Very family friendly. Pets are welcome and the staff is very friendly.
GuideNice hiking trails, mountain biking trails, a lake, a waterfall, and cabins. What more could you ask for all in one spot? Campground is a bit cramped, but the showers and bathrooms are clean, and the trails are well maintained. Close to shopping. Very quiet at night.
TravelerThey escorted us to the parking spot and waited outside to make sure we had everything in order before heading out! Very nice people and good location for late night arrival
