Two miles west of downtown Huntsville, Redstone Arsenal RV Park & Campground sits within the military base perimeter, requiring base access through Gate 8 or Gate 9. The facility functions primarily as a transit stop for military families during permanent change of station moves, with concrete pads designed to accommodate RVs up to 40 feet in length.
The campground features pull-through sites with full hookups including 50-amp service on large concrete pads. Sites lack shade trees, creating hot conditions during summer months. MickandKarla W. found "the pads here are huge and the utilities including 50 AMP worked well." Cell coverage reaches 3 bars on Verizon and 2 bars on T-Mobile, with clear satellite access due to the open layout.
A fenced dog park provides space for pets, while the facility includes shower and laundry buildings with four machines each costing $1. WiFi service covers the campground effectively. Gate 8 near the commissary offers easier access than Gate 9, avoiding the u-turn maneuver past the golf course. fletcher6531 notes the area "needs mowed and more cleaning."
For those with military credentials seeking additional options, camping near Huntsville provides alternatives in the region. The campground serves its intended purpose as an overnight military facility with reliable utilities and basic amenities.
