The Cove RV Resort and Campground

RV campers traveling Interstate 59 can pull directly into The Cove RV Resort and Campground, located just minutes off the highway near Attalla. This private campground operates year-round with full hookups and serves primarily as an overnight stop for travelers, though some visitors extend their stays to a month or longer.

The property features a small lake where some sites offer water views, plus a swimming pool that reviewers consistently describe as clean. Gravel roads connect the sites, though JR Z. notes "when it rains the roads are a mess." Pull-through sites accommodate larger RVs with level parking. Both AT&T and Verizon provide strong cell coverage according to multiple campers, while WiFi strength varies depending on proximity to access points.

The campground includes standard amenities like restrooms, showers, laundry facilities, and a dump station. Sites come with picnic tables, and the facility allows pets. "Everything was perfect from the first call until the day we left," reports Rozina G.. Nightly rates range from $35-38 for full hookups.

Many campers appreciated the large, level sites and clean facilities including pool and shower houses. Convenient interstate access makes it popular for overnight stops. Some mixed feedback on camp host interactions.

Conveniently Located

The Cove is right off of I-59 at Attalla with easy on and easy off access. The negatives are when it rains the roads are a mess. The internet service is less than desirable unless you are close to the access point. The view of the lake is beautiful if you are on a site that pulls up to the lake. There is a half sunk boat that floats around the lake and although I think it’s funny, my wife is a little spooked by it! The camp host is less than a host and more of traffic cops. The only correspondence we had with them was driving above the unposted speed limit and reclaiming my jack boards after leaving for three day weekend away and leaving the boards in our prepaid spot for the month. I am not a fan of the camp host. If you are looking for an easy over night stopping point The Cove is a great place. If a long term place to stay is what you are looking for then maybe look on down the road.

Excellent stop for the night!!

We were looking for a spot to pull over for the night on the way back from a family vacation. This place is conveniently right off the interstate, but still tucked away enough that it's quiet. Booking was extremely easy on the website -- though when I would refresh the site it did give me different prices each time. It was $35 total (including all taxes) for full hookups, water, & sewer. Each site includes a picnic table. We were in site 26. Very level, right by the pool, and still has a view of the lakes. Entire campground and pool area were very clean!

I wouldn't call this a "resort" or plan to vacation here, but it was a great place to stop for the night and work for the day. At&t and Verizon both had strong signals here. We didn't check for any wifi.

QUICK STOP

Definitely not a resort, but it's a good place to stop over for a night. This campground is literally 2 minutes off the I59 which makes it very convenient. There's a clean pool, a small lake, laundry, and bath house. Driveway is gravel, so it's very dusty. We were in site 24 which is a pull through.

Quiet, new campground, conveniently located of RT 59.

We needed a place to stop for the night driving north on route 59 near Gadsden, AL. We found The Cove online and it was absolutely perfect to suit our needs. Large pull through sites with all the amenities. It’s a newer park so everything is in great shape. There is a nice pool and fishing pond.
