LegendDriving up to this campground, I almost turned around. But, getting here, I am so glad we didn't! Our site, #34 on the Catoma side, was perfectly level, easy to back in, and a lot of personal space between campers. The view is amazing! The water is right behind us! We have full hookups here, which makes it so easy. There is a small playground area for the kids and a bath house within walking distance.
GuideWe stayed in the Antioch loop on site 93. The site was super close to 92 and 94. We felt we had no personal space. A couple kept walking through our campsite to get to a boat they had parked at our site. I love rustic but Antioch was not rustic, it was over grown and did not look maintained. We think they are letting the Antioch loop go. If that something you like, over grown and close, Antioch loop is for you. We do plan to come back and will try out the Catoma Loop. Catoma Loop looks more like what we enjoy; spaced out, maintained and welcoming.
TravelerI stayed here for 8 weeks while travel nursing at a local hospital. I had previously moved from another campground I did not feel safe at. Boy was this place a breath of fresh air! The staff was very nice and accommodating! They patrolled the grounds on golf carts frequently. There are only two single serve bathrooms with showers on site, but they were well maintained and also had heat lamps for the wintertime. The laundry room was small with only two slightly dated washers and dryers, but they got the job done. You just had to time it to get in the queue. Each site had a picnic table, but sadly not all of them had fire pit rings. Mine was one that did not. All of the sites were gravel paved, but they were very level. The staff works hard to upkeep the sites by delivering fresh gravel to sites with a tractor when campers leave. The staff was very kind to come by and warn us when we were expecting freezing temps to help prevent our pipes from freezing. They even carried my trash bag up to the dumpster once on their golf cart so I wouldn’t have to! My biggest complaint here was the spotty WiFi, but that’s to be expected at most parks. This park is right up the street from Alabama Safari Park, and there are a few restaurants up the road near the interstate. Overall, I highly recommend this park! Loved staying here, and would definitely return again! It’s a quick hop on the interstate to get to Montgomery or Prattville.
GuideStayed in the Antioch Loop (older section). The sites are a nice size with gravel. Water and electric. Lots of trees and shade. Nice playground and air conditioned shower house. Saw laundry was available but didn’t use. Lots of Spanish moss. The downside, Saturday night race nearby was really loud. I wasn’t terribly bothered but some people might be. Check the raceway schedule before you book.
TravelerThe campground was wonderful! So many amenities. Air conditioned bathrooms. Shower pressure and temperatures spot on and clean. Lake beach was wonderful everyone was friendly. Hiking, paddle boats, canoeing, boat rentals, fishing pier, archery, putt putt, and a snow cone truck that came around in the evenings. What a treat. Will do again.
GuideMy 3 kids and I pitched a tent at the camp ground and then took a dip in the lake. Lake was a short walk from our tent, we stayed an hour and all enjoyed the refreshing water. Beach area was not crowded but me most enjoyed the doc where my kids could jump off. I swam as well and loved it. View of the mountains was very nice.
We cooked dinner at our tent and scored a spot very close to the bath house which included a utility closet with a sink for cleaning dishes, etc. Tent site was well marked and orderly. Including a fire pit with grill attachment. Beautiful canopy of trees making for great shade. Beautiful evening, very quiet and orderly.
Enjoyed cooking breakfast the next morning followed by hiking and a trip to Peavine Falls. Very nice and highly recommended.
Staffing at Oak Mtn was great. Plenty of folks patrolling and looking after the camping community ☀️⛺️

CONS
$5 reservation fee for making my own on-line reservation
Street lights throughout campground
Toilet/shower facility heavily used which badly needs updating
Campground trash dumpsters are beyond the campground gate…not walkable
Poor signage upon entering Park. We stopped at the first building on the right, as it was marked RANGER OFFICE with a large, rig-friendly parking area, but it was not a check-in for campers. Then we went through another gate on the main roadway and it wasn’t the campground check-in either. Campground directional signs after we got through that gate. Glad we didn’t arrive in the dark!
Limited and very tight rig parking at campground gate check-in
No notice by park on the south entrance roadwork and roundabout construction...horribly tight to maneuver... recommend North entrance/exit until construction is completed…that’s how we departed.
Never saw a camp host
No WiFi
2 bars Verizon
RangerUltra 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
RangerMy husband's job requires constant travel. We stayed here for five weeks for a job in Selma. I absolutely LOVED this campground! GiGi and Don work tirelessly six days a week. If there were 8 days in a week, they would work 7. Beautiful flowers, more trees than I have ever seen in a campground, fenced dog park, seasonal pool, bathrooms with a shower, large laundry room/sitting area at the front of the park, book/DVD swap, second laundry room being renovated at the back of the park, propane filled on site and safe walking within the park (hills). Some road noise but not obnoxious. Will absolutely stay here again if we are in the area.
Marbury, Alabama sits at the southern edge of Alabama's Piedmont region, with campgrounds situated among rolling hills at elevations between 200-500 feet. The climate features hot, humid summers and mild winters, making camping possible year-round with seasonal considerations. Water access camping is particularly abundant due to proximity to Lake Martin and the Alabama River watershed.
Fishing opportunities: Gunter Hill Campground provides access to excellent fishing on the Alabama River. According to a camper, "Very long and level concrete pad. Great Verizon signal and numerous free digital TV stations to choose from," making it comfortable to return to after a day on the water.
Trail hiking: Oak Mountain State Park Campground offers extensive trail systems for all skill levels. A visitor notes, "Oak Mountain is a big state park with lots to do (golf, biking, archery, lots of trails that are very well marked, petting zoo, very neat trail with rescued owls, turkeys and red hawks, and more)."
Waterfront recreation: Beyond swimming, Wind Creek State Park Campground offers comprehensive water activities. A camper shared, "Tent 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."
Full-hookup sites: Many campers appreciate the convenience of complete services. At Gunter Hill, a visitor noted, "We had a nice stay in site 67. The campground was renovated sometime in the not too distant past with large concrete pads, as well as water and electrical hook ups. Many sites have full hook ups, all at a reasonable price."
Privacy between sites: Kountry Air RV Park earns praise for spacious site layouts. A reviewer shared, "The campground is immaculate and very well maintained with each site carefully leveled with gravel to make set up easy! The sites are well placed and spread out so you don't feel like you're right on top of the campers next to you."
Yurt camping options: For those seeking yurt camping near Marbury, Alabama, Hideaway Cove provides a secluded glamping experience. A visitor described it as "Serene, gorgeous, well stocked — perfect" and appreciated that "The charm of the tent is taken up a notch by the led lights powered by a car battery— genius! I didn't even need my flashlight."
Weather preparedness: Central Alabama's weather patterns can change rapidly. At Montgomery South RV Park, staff helps guests prepare: "The staff was very kind to come by and warn us when we were expecting freezing temps to help prevent our pipes from freezing."
Site access considerations: Some yurt and specialty camping sites near Marbury require specific access. At Weogufka State Forest, "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."
Seasonal variations: Visitor density changes dramatically with seasons. A visitor to Oak Mountain State Park noted, "When we pulled into Gunter Hill this time of year we were surprised to see how empty the place was. There were a few large RVs in the area but only one other tent camper like ourselves."
Playground access: Multiple campgrounds offer dedicated children's areas. At Wind Creek State Park, a camper shared, "We love camping at Wind Creek. lots to do for the kiddos!" Another visitor to Gunter Hill mentioned, "For the kiddies there is also a sizable modern playground right next to the bathhouse."
Educational wildlife opportunities: Teach children about local ecosystems through structured programs. One visitor to Oak Mountain appreciated the "very neat trail with rescued owls, turkeys and red hawks" that provides learning opportunities.
Off-season visits: Consider weekday or non-summer trips for quieter family camping. A reviewer at Kountry Air RV Park noted, "This little gem of a campground is kind of off the beaten path between Montgomery and Selma. The owners are very friendly and helpful and gave us a GREAT restaurant recommendation."
Pull-through accessibility: Many sites accommodate large rigs without disconnecting tow vehicles. A camper at Rolling Hills RV Park reported, "We had a pull through spot so we didn't have to disconnect our tow dolly. Gravel site was fairly level despite being in a hilly area."
Hookup placement: Check utility layout before selecting sites. At Gunter Hill, a reviewer noted, "We stayed overnight on site 35. It has full hookups, however the sewer was a bit far from the paring pad. If you have a single black tank hose this may be an issue."
Signal strength considerations: For those working remotely from RVs, connectivity varies between campgrounds. A visitor to Montgomery South RV Park shared, "My biggest complaint here was the spotty WiFi, but that's to be expected at most parks. This park is right up the street from Alabama Safari Park, and there are a few restaurants up the road near the interstate."
