Best RV Parks & Resorts near Mobile, AL

Mobile County hosts several full-hookup RV parks near major highways I-10 and I-65. Apalachee RV Campground at Blakeley State Park offers spacious sites with water, electric, and sewer hookups in a wooded setting with good site separation. All About Relaxing RV Park provides 41 full-hookup sites with both 30- and 50-amp service year-round on level concrete pads. "The RV sites are well landscaped with signs welcoming you by name. The only downside is the sites are a little cramped/close together," noted one visitor. Mobile Oaks RV Resort (formerly Johnny's RV Resort) accommodates large rigs with 50-amp service, and Deer Creek RV Park features 19 sites with both 30- and 50-amp connections and sewer hookups.

Most RV parks in the Mobile area operate year-round with varying seasonal demand. Within 30 miles of downtown, several parks offer gated security and amenities such as swimming pools, dog runs, and laundry facilities. Site conditions vary considerably between parks - Blakeley State Park's sites can be challenging to level according to reviews, while All About Relaxing provides meticulously maintained concrete pads. Dump stations are available at most parks, with the I-10 Welcome Center offering a free dump station for travelers passing through. Cell service is generally reliable throughout the region, though some parks enforce strict rules about overnight parking. During hurricane season (June through November), travelers should monitor weather conditions and check cancellation policies when making reservations.

    Sugar Sands RV Resort

    Our favorite Orange Beach campground

    Very clean. Spacious sites with level concrete pads. Full hook ups. Only 8-10 minutes to the beach.  Very clean bath houses. Easy to navigate campground road with tons of room to back into back-in sites. Pull throughs also easily assessible. Nice pool. Check in easy and quick. Employees very friendly. Will be back next month. Camp store on site. They also have a few rental tiny houses and rv's. Trash pickup at your site each morning. Cable TV and great WIFI.

    9/6/20 update: all things mostly the same, bath house closed from 8pm to 8am and WiFi not nearly as good as past visits.

    Magnolia Farms RV Park

    Quiet, Friendly RV Park

    We are fairly new to the RV life - Andy tried to help us back in, and then decided he would just do it for us. He was so helpful. Everyone has been helpful. The laundry facility has an app that lets you know when your clothes are done, so you can walk back to your camper and wait instead of sitting with it. 3 or 4 activities are planned every month. There are some permanent residents, but enough transient to feel like you are with travelers. We chose it because it was close to our daughter, but would choose it again. Monthly rate is cheaper than daily rate. There is a fire pit for everyone to share, but no fire pits or grills for individual sites. Wooden decks for each site are nice. Grassy back in and some pull through- all level. Someone is always tending to the grounds and doing maintenance on the sites. We’ll be back!

    Gulf State Park Campground

    Beaches and bikes

    Gulf Shores Alabama Gulf State Park Current camping spot on the canal. Ours is a nice pull thru with electric and water. Almost 500 sites here from tent to big rig friendly. Spacious sites, some with foliage, some with Lake or canal views. Grills but no fire pits. Right now there's a shortage of usable bath houses because of hurricane damage repairs in progress. Good wifi, local TV, and cell service. Close to stores and dining. Free access to adjacent pier. Great coastal access. Free use of bikes. Lots of great paved and boardwalk trails. Gators, snakes, armadillos and birds reside here.

    Davis Bayou Campground — Gulf Islands National Seashore

    Gem on the Mississippi Gulf Coast

    We really enjoyed our stay at Davis Bayou. The campground seems to be a bit dated, but we kinda enjoyed the nostalgic element this added to the vibe.

    The sites vary in size, we noticed most big rigs had to park their tow vehicles or toads in the auxiliary parking. If this is a problem you may want to look at other options, as the park staff is very diligent about keeping folks off the grass.

    The park staff did regular patrols though out the park. They were very friendly.

    We enjoyed riding our bikes around the park and to the historic arts district in Ocean Springs. There are several restaurants and bars with live music which was fun. There are also alot of art studios to check out.

    We also took our canoe all though out Davis Bayou and to the beach, which was a ton of fun. The tides are in play here, so make sure you study up as conditions can and do change rapidly.

    The visitors center is definitely worth checking out and while your there make sure to check out the fishing pier.

    Each site has a picnic table, fire ring, power and water.

    The cost is $22 a night per site.

    The bathhouses were cleaned regular and had great water pressure. The water has a bit of a smell to it.

    Verizon cell service worked okay.

    Bring bug spray.

    Sun Outdoors Orange Beach

    Lots of concrete

    This is an all Inclusive RV Resort! Lots of spaces, but very few RVs when we were there. Sites are all concrete with easy access hookups. Not much shade. 2 pools, one adult only. Dog Park, laundry, tennis courts, gulf cart rental. They even have a business center. Walking trails connect to Gulf State Park. They do a lot of planned activities which can be annoying. Long term or short term sites available.

    Luxury RV Resort

    Great level spots

    The park great and very easy to get into (35’ 5th wheel). It was very full while we were there but the spots were set up to feel like you still had your own space from your neighbors. Room to park 2 cars. 2 separate spots to tie into the sewer which was nice. Level concrete pads with picnic tables. Hosts where very helpful. Walking distance to the beach and restaurants. Would stay again.

    Chickasabogue Park - Temporarily Closed

    Perfect for local weekend getaway

    Chickasabogue is a bit run down but it’s a great spot to get away from the bustle of daily life. There’s a sports field, water access, and several short, easy paths to hKe. It’s pet friendly and family friendly.

    Davis Bayou Campground — Gulf Islands National Seashore

    Close to Ocean Springs, Ms.

    This is a popular park during the winter months as it is a National Park. Reserve early. No wifi, no laundry but clean bathrooms and shower. Electric and water at the campsites and a dump station is available. Close to town and all the good eats. Nice clean park.


Guide to Mobile

Mobile County RV camping includes parks with concrete pads, full-hookup sites, and sites for larger vehicles. The area receives about 65 inches of rain annually, creating lush surroundings at many campgrounds. Most sites in the region have electrical service ranging from 30 to 50-amp connections, with water hookups standard at established campgrounds.

What to do

Fishing and boating access: The Retreat RV & Campground On Styx River offers direct river access for anglers and paddlers. "The river bank is gorgeous and we even spent a dinner out next to the river," notes one visitor who appreciated the water access.

Golf options: Citronelle Lakeview RV Park includes a public golf course on the drive into the campground. As one reviewer mentioned, "We loved Citronelle and will definitely go back regularly. Whole family enjoyed playing golf, fishing, and walking."

Historical exploration: Blakeley State Park Apalachee Campground features preserved historical areas dating back to the 1800s. A camper noted, "Great park with a ton of historically preserved areas from the 1800's," making it ideal for history enthusiasts visiting the Mobile area.

What campers like

Spacious sites: Homestead RV Community receives high marks for its concrete pads. "The sites are HUGE! Plenty of amenities," writes one reviewer. Another mentions, "The concrete pads are really large and make for easy leveling and give ample space to park 2 vehicles easily."

Amenities for extended stays: All About Relaxing RV Park has thoughtful additions for longer-term campers. A reviewer explains, "A lot of thought went into the amenities. There are bench swings, a giant chess board, horseshoe pit, dog run and dog bathing area, pool, cabana/pavilions, and many other amenities."

Pet-friendly facilities: Many Mobile area campgrounds accommodate four-legged travelers. Homestead RV Community features "a dog park which our dog loved being off leash" according to one reviewer, while another notes their "dog park is so big and our pups were able to really run around and get their energy out."

What you should know

Weather considerations: Hurricane season runs from June through November in Mobile County, requiring careful planning and flexible reservations. During severe weather, some parks provide safety information and designated shelter areas.

Site leveling challenges: Some parks require additional equipment for leveling. At The Retreat, one camper advised, "Make sure you bring leveling blocks, some of the sites are fairly level while others are not. Our site sloped down towards the river and we needed extra blocks to place under our tires and stabilizers."

Cell service variations: While coverage is generally good throughout Mobile County, signal strength varies by campground location. Parks closer to town typically have stronger service than those in more remote settings near waterways.

Local food options: Bay Palms RV Resort is relatively isolated from convenient dining. "Luckily we brought most of the food we needed because there is no nearby fast food and limited grocery stores. Just something to be aware of. Mainly seafood or pizza restaurants around," reports one camper.

Tips for camping with families

Pool access: Several RV parks near Mobile feature swimming pools for children. At Bay Palms RV Resort, "Our daughter enjoyed the playground. We went in March, so we were hoping to enjoy the heated pool, but unfortunately it was ice cold. Looked nice and clean for summer use though."

Private bathroom facilities: Some parks offer individual bathroom units instead of communal facilities. At Blakeley State Park, one camper noted, "The bathroom was clean, had a light, very soft toilet paper, and hand sanitizer."

Playground options: Mobile Oaks RV Resort (formerly Johnny's RV Resort) includes a lake and swimming pool suitable for families. A camper mentioned, "I stayed here for 6 months and I was right down by the lake and pool. It is nice and peaceful."

Tips from RVers

Site size considerations: Several parks have tight spaces that may challenge larger rigs. At The Retreat RV Campground, a camper warned, "Our camper is 35 feet travel trailer, and it was quiet tight getting into our spot, and it will be for most current spots, we would not have been able to park where we were had there been a camper next to us."

Arrival assistance: Some parks provide personalized check-in services. At All About Relaxing RV Park, reviewers consistently mention staff assistance: "They took us to our pull through spot, helped us get lined up, and greeted us like old friends!"

Daily rates at parks like Winner's Circle RV Resort range from $35 for basic sites to $55 for premium pull-through locations, with military and Good Sam discounts available at many facilities.
