Best Cabin Camping near Smiths Station, AL

Campground is fairly large with lots of sites for RVs, a few Cabins, yurts, and even tent sites. There is a really nice and well maintained pool, hot tub, and splash area for small kids. The RV sites near the pool are concrete pads and well spaced out. The sites below the pool area are a little tighter and un-level and our lot was covered in ants. Since we arrived late at night we didn’t realize the amount of ants until we woke up to them crawling all over our camper. 30 amp circuit was not adequate. The breaker continually tripped while using small kitchen appliances. Other than that we had a great time and really appreciated the trash pickup twice a day and the Dollar General that was only a 1/4 mile down the road.

Discrimination, disrespectful, rude, disgusting facilities, bug infested and broken cabins, mold infested and unclean/unsafe/unsanitary living conditions, evicting tentants with no proper legal rights, service, nor reason, NON-ada compliant, lying and forcing me to pay for an expensive rental house I cant afford but they gave the rental I was promised to someone else, they refuse to give their online and brochure- stated Good Sam Club or military discounts, and they refuse to put anything in writing to avoid prosecution. I was told because the owner decided she didn’t like me that she can not accommodate me and my children (who all 3 have disabilities); yet she picks and chooses who she decides can stay or not with no regards to the damages she is doing to innocent families. I have done nothing wrong and she has no legal right to tell me to leave the house they forced me to go to while I was eating only a week for the smaller and cheaper cabin- but she gave the cabin to someone else and refused to let me know, and now I’m forced to pay double in the cabin I cannot afford. I hope they are ready for the lawsuit coming soon. They have harbored a sex offender knowing he was not registered to his campground address and he continues to remain on the property as well; around young children (including mine). I have had to stop going to the main facilities because of this issue and they don’t care. I spoke with law enforcement and they said the can’t evict anyone right now due to the “stay at home” CoVid-19 ruling yet they are passing out “eviction letters” as if they are official letters from the sheriffs office. My rental is infested with rotten molding subfloors that sink when you walk on them. The owners refused to acknowledge and fix them; all while knowing I have a disability that is directly related to my lungs and an immunodeficiency which can cause my illnesses to get worse.

This is unacceptable and needs to be addressed before they damage the next groups of people that do not yet know what Lake Eufaula Campground and the owners will do or make up to falsely accuse people and discrimination against the disabled community AND the military community. Rick and Karen should be ashamed of themselves!

This is a great campground just off the interstate with great swimming, biking, and a waterfall. It has a lot of history related to Auburn University and is popular with students as well as past generations of students. But it continues to be a good family friendly destination. Flat campground with good services. We recently stayed in a cabin after staying in the campground years prior. The cabins are built by CCC and are lovely historic dwellings with great stone fireplaces and wood work. We were in cabin 2, the sofa bed needs to be replaced. The lake connector trail goes in front of the cabin but down the hill. On a Saturday in spring this trail is highly trafficked. The cabin comes with a flat bottom john boat but our was actually TAKEN after we unlocked it. The park rangers could care less when we reported it. The experienced mountain bike trail is just next to the cabins and is a great obstacle course for kids learning. The playgrounds are old and outdated but this can be a good thing to those nostalgic for swinging metal playgrounds. The concrete diving pier on the lake is a classic with an old school high dive. We were not there during football season for our second stay but it is very hard to get a cabin in the fall. It is a great family destination for the day or the weekend.

Cabin 1 (one of the original CCC cabins) was perfect for a long Thanksgiving weekend. The cabin feels both rustic and has a modern kitchen, which is great for cooking a celebratory feast. It also has two interior wood-burning stoves, one in the living room and one in the bedroom, so perfect for those chilly nights. We saw some stunning sunsets from the rocking chairs on the side porch. The view over the ridge really makes it feel like you’re in the mountains. We did miss the peak of the fall leaves by a couple of weeks, but we had great hikes every day. Really relaxing trip.
