Kick Back Ranch

6 RV Sites, 14 Cabins, 4 Tent Sites, 21 Hotel Rooms

Kick Back Ranch in Ramer, Alabama, offers six full-hookup pull-through RV sites and 35 cabin and hotel-room accommodations on a gated private lake resort, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 45 feet. A private lake with a beach, an outdoor pool, golf cart rentals, and a full recreation program make this a self-contained family destination in rural Montgomery County. Six pull-through sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp, sized to 45 feet, on a big-rig-friendly layout. Thirty-five cabins and hotel rooms carry most of the inventory, so book lodging early if the RV sites are gone. A general store, laundry, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side, and WiFi reaches the property. The ranch is family-oriented and welcomes all ages, though it does also include a 55-plus living community. The office runs Monday through Friday, 8am to 6pm. The private lake is the centerpiece — fishing, swimming, canoeing, kayaking, and paddle boats all run from it, with a beach for shoreline use. An outdoor pool, recreation center, game room, billiards, sports courts, basketball, volleyball, and corn hole spread across the resort, with bike rentals and golf cart rentals to cover the grounds. A playground, dog park, pavilion, and walking trails round it out, and planned activities run through the season. A gated entrance controls access. Pets are welcome. Ramer sits in the quiet farming and timber country on Montgomery County's rural fringe, far enough out to feel genuinely removed while staying within reach of Montgomery. The ranch operates through the Alabama season, with summer lake recreation driving peak family demand. With six RV sites, reserve well ahead.

The Backyard RV Resort

The Backyard RV Resort in Montgomery, Alabama, provides a comfortable and conveniently located full hookup camping destination in the Alabama River city that serves as the state capital, positioning guests in a city of profound historical significance where the Civil Rights Movement's pivotal moments and the antebellum South's political center converge in a community now working to engage its complex history through a growing cultural institution landscape. The resort's lake setting and practical amenity package serve both short-term transit travelers on the US-231 and I-65 corridors and extended-stay guests working in Montgomery's government, military, and healthcare sectors. The resort's on-site lake provides fishing and scenic water views that distinguish the property from the typical highway-adjacent commercial campground, and the full hookup sites with big-rig-friendly configurations serve the large motorhomes common among extended-stay and snowbird visitors. A dog park, pavilion, community fire pit, laundry, showers, Wi-Fi, dump station, and propane fills complete the service roster for multi-day stays, and the pet-friendly atmosphere welcomes the traveling companions that RV guests who spend extended periods in Alabama consistently bring with them. The resort's residential character makes it comfortable for both short transit stops and multi-week stays. Montgomery's significance in American history is concentrated in a few blocks of the downtown where the Civil Rights Memorial and Center, the Rosa Parks Museum at the site of the 1955 bus boycott's initiation, the Dexter Avenue King Memorial Baptist Church, and the National Memorial for Peace and Justice—the country's first memorial to the victims of racial terror lynching—form a civil rights heritage corridor of extraordinary depth and honesty. The Alabama State Capitol, where Jefferson Davis was inaugurated as President of the Confederacy in 1861, stands at the head of Dexter Avenue a short walk from the Dexter Avenue King church in a juxtaposition that captures the full weight of Montgomery's layered history. The Montgomery Museum of Fine Arts, the Hank Williams Museum celebrating Alabama's most celebrated country music icon, and the Alabama Shakespeare Festival—one of the largest Shakespeare festival companies in the United States with a permanent theater complex in Blount Cultural Park—provide cultural programming that gives Montgomery significantly more arts and heritage depth than its size alone would suggest. Maxwell Air Force Base and Gunter Annex, two Air Force installations within Montgomery city limits, generate consistent extended-stay demand from military personnel and civilian contractors that the resort's full hookup infrastructure is positioned to serve. The Gulf Shores beaches are approximately three hours south on I-65. The Backyard RV Resort operates year-round in Montgomery's subtropical climate, where mild winters attract snowbird visitors and the spring and fall shoulder seasons deliver the most comfortable temperatures for exploring the city's outdoor and heritage attractions on foot. Summer's heat and humidity concentrate the most enjoyable outdoor activity in early morning hours, but the lake's natural setting and the resort's dog park provide morning and evening activity for guests staying through the warmer months. The combination of cultural depth, military demand, and transit positioning makes the resort viable across all seasons and all guest types seeking Montgomery-area camping.

Deer Run RV Park - AL

70 RV Sites

Deer Run RV Park in Troy, AL, offers 71 RV sites with 30 and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 80 feet. Sites come in three categories — full-hookup back-ins and pull-thrus carrying water, sewer, and electric, plus water-and-electric pull-thrus. The park is gated and rated big rig friendly, and at 80 feet the pull-thrus take the longest coaches without unhitching. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a general store, propane fills and exchange, a dump station, a clubhouse, and cabins cover the practical side. Pets are welcome. An outdoor pool, a lake, and a pond fill 68 acres, with swimming and fishing on the property. Troy sits off Highway 231 in Pike County in the Alabama Wiregrass, where the longleaf pine and wiregrass ecosystem survives in the managed hunting and forestry land of the region. A lake is nearby. Rates by hookup level are on the booking page. Ask for a full-hookup pull-thru if you're running long.

Cypress Landing RV Park

47 RV Sites

Cypress Landing RV Park in Dozier, Alabama, offers 47 full-hookup RV sites on Gantt Lake with 20, 30, and 50-amp service, cable TV, and rigs accepted to 45 feet. Back-in and pull-through categories join a boat ramp, boat docks, boat rentals, a beach, and a fishing pier on a 2,700-acre reservoir. Forty-seven sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 20, 30, and 50-amp in back-in and pull-through configurations, sized to 45 feet, with picnic tables, cable TV, and site WiFi. A general store, laundry, dump station, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. Review the pet rules before arriving with animals. Pets are welcome. The lake carries the recreation. A boat ramp, boat docks, boat rentals, fishing pier, and beach give complete water access for boating, fishing, canoeing, kayaking, swimming, and water sports. A pond, walking trails, playground, pavilion, basketball, and corn hole fill the grounds, with planned activities through the season. Gantt Lake covers 2,700 acres with 21 miles of shoreline in Covington County's piney woods country. The park is locally owned and family-operated, and that genuine small-town hospitality distinguishes it from the chain campgrounds — south Alabama's Wiregrass country runs on its lakes and rivers, and the local camping community here is large and devoted. The park serves the Alabama lake season, with summer boating and fishing driving the heaviest demand and spring and fall delivering the most comfortable conditions. Reserve ahead for warm-weather weekends and holiday periods, when the local community fills the shoreline.

Higgins Ferry Park

11 RV Sites, 5 Tent Sites

Higgins Ferry Park in Clanton, AL, offers 11 full-hookup back-in RV sites and 5 tent sites, with 30 and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 35 feet. Every site is a back-in carrying water, sewer, and electric with a fire pit and picnic table. The 35-foot maximum keeps this to smaller rigs. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a dump station, a pavilion, a playground, and a storm shelter are on the property — the storm shelter matters in central Alabama. Pets are welcome. A boat ramp puts guests on the water for boating and fishing, with swimming and picnicking on the wooded lakeshore. This is a public park run with the kind of natural-landscape care that separates the good county campgrounds from the rest. Higgins Ferry sits on Lake Mitchell in the central Alabama piedmont, about ten miles east of Clanton in Chilton County. Rates for sites and tent spots are on the booking page. Eleven sites on a quiet lake fill fast in summer — reserve ahead.

Timberline Glamping at Lake Martin

Timberline Glamping at Lake Martin puts a modern outdoor accommodation experience inside Wind Creek State Park on Lake Martin in Alexander City, Alabama — spacious safari tents with cozy beds, comfortable seating, and fire pits positioned within Alabama's largest state park in Tallapoosa County, giving guests the complete Lake Martin waterfront and recreation access of the Wind Creek State Park grounds with the comfort infrastructure of a furnished glamping tent that makes the lake experience accessible to guests who want the outdoor setting without the equipment logistics of tent camping in the Alabama summer heat. Alexander City's Tallapoosa County position on Lake Martin gives Timberline the specific lake recreation context of one of the most beloved freshwater lakes in the southeast. Safari-style glamping tents with real beds, seating, and fire pits inside Wind Creek State Park give guests the camping-without-compromising experience that the Timberline brand specifically delivers in state park settings — the state park address gives glamping guests the park's swimming, fishing, hiking, and boat ramp access alongside the tent's comfort, and the fire pit at each site gives the evening campfire experience that serves as the campsite's social and recreational focal point regardless of the accommodation format. The lake's presence within walking distance gives guests the immediate water access that Lake Martin's reputation sustains. Pets are welcome. Wind Creek State Park, one of Alabama's most popular and most completely developed state parks at 1,445 acres on Lake Martin's eastern shore, provides the most accessible public camping and recreation infrastructure on Alabama's most celebrated private lake — Lake Martin's 41,000 acres are primarily ringed by private homes, private docks, and resort development that limits public water access, making Wind Creek's boat ramp, fishing pier, swimming beach, and campground the primary public entry point to Lake Martin for guests without private access. The state park's hiking trails through the longleaf pine and mixed hardwood upland give non-boating guests the terrestrial recreation complement to the lake's water programming. Lake Martin, the reservoir created by the Tallapoosa River's Martin Dam in 1926 in Tallapoosa and Elmore Counties, is one of the most recreated freshwater lakes in Alabama — an 880-mile shoreline in the central Alabama Piedmont whose water clarity, the warm summer temperatures, and the resort and marina development along the private shore sustain the boating, wakeboarding, fishing, and the summer vacation economy that Alabama River Lakes Commission and the Alabama Power Company's lake management sustain as one of the state's primary freshwater recreation resources. The lake's largemouth bass, spotted bass, and striped bass fisheries sustain a tournament fishing calendar and guide industry. Timberline Glamping at Lake Martin serves guests through the Alabama camping season from spring through fall, with the summer lake season from Memorial Day through Labor Day representing the peak family recreation demand and the fall fishing season from September through November sustaining the angling-focused visitor market that Lake Martin's fall bass and striped bass feeding cycles specifically produce. Auburn-Opelika, 40 miles southeast of Alexander City in Lee County, provides the Auburn University campus, the Toomer's Corner celebration tradition, and the Jordan-Hare Stadium's SEC football atmosphere that give the Tallapoosa County area the fall Auburn-Alabama football season dimension. Reserve glamping tents well ahead for summer holiday weekends and Auburn home football game weeks.

The Oaks Family RV Park and Campground

50 RV Sites, 9 Cabins

The Oaks Family RV Park and Campground in Andalusia, AL, offers 50 RV sites and 9 cabins, with 30 and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 50 feet. Sites are labeled by surface and service, which is more useful than a tier name: concrete back-in 30/50-amp, concrete pull-thru 50-amp, gravel back-in 30/50-amp, and gravel back-in 30/50-amp water-and-electric. Full-hookup sites carry water, sewer, and electric with a fire pit and picnic table. The concrete sites are worth requesting after a wet week. A bathhouse with showers, firewood, a pavilion, and cabins cover the rest. Pets are welcome, with a dog park. An outdoor pool, a zip line, a lake, a pond, and a playground fill the grounds, with swimming, fishing, horseshoes, corn hole, and picnicking. Andalusia sits in Covington County in south Alabama's Wiregrass, where longleaf pine flatwoods and the creek systems of the lower Conecuh River watershed define the landscape. Rates by site surface and service are on the booking page. Concrete pull-thrus book first.

from $31 $27/night

Peach Queen Campground

53 RV Sites, 18 Tent Sites

Peach Queen Campground in Jemison, AL, offers 53 full-hookup pull-thru RV sites and 18 tent sites, with 30 and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 65 feet. Every site is a 30/50-amp pull-thru carrying water, sewer, and electric — nothing needs unhitching. The campground is rated big rig friendly. Laundry, a general store, a snack bar, firewood, a dump station, on-site dining, and cabins cover the rest. After-hours arrivals find a map with their check-in details in the mailbox just outside and to the right of the office. Pets are welcome, with a dog park. An outdoor pool, a pavilion, a playground, a lake, a pond, creek frontage, walking trails, and corn hole fill the grounds, with swimming, fishing, boating, hiking, biking, birding, and live music. A state park and golf are nearby. Jemison sits in Chilton County, where the red clay foothills of the Appalachian Piedmont grow the peaches that give this corner of central Alabama an agricultural identity as specific as any in the South. Rates for sites and tent spots are on the booking page. Peach season and summer weekends fill the campground.

from $30/night

Minooka Park

15 RV Sites, 2 Cabins

Minooka Park in Jemison, AL, offers 15 RV sites and 2 cabins, with 30 and 50-amp service and back-in sites for rigs up to 50 feet. Sites come in two categories, full-hookup back-ins carrying water, sewer, and electric, and water-and-electric back-ins. The grounds are gated, with a bathhouse with showers, a pavilion, and two cabins for guests without a rig. Pets are welcome, and there's a playground. The park occupies 420 acres, which is what separates it from a campground of comparable site count: a lake, sport courts, basketball, ping pong, hiking trails, and picnicking on the property, with fishing, kayaking, and boating on the water and off-road riding nearby. Jemison sits in Chilton County at the geographic center of Alabama, in the rolling Coosa Valley between Birmingham and Montgomery, in a county that grows more peaches than any other in the state. Rates for sites and cabins are on the booking page. Fifteen RV sites on 420 acres is a rare ratio — reserve ahead for summer and peach season.

from $25/night

Backwater RV Park

30 RV Sites

Backwater RV Park in Abbeville, Alabama, offers 30 full-hookup back-in RV sites across more than 45 acres in the Chattahoochee River watershed, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 43 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout. A single back-in category means every guest gets the same spec, with walking trails, a playground, laundry, and dog-friendly grounds. Thirty back-in sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp, sized to 43 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. One consistent category and no guesswork. Note the 43-foot cap before booking a larger rig. A laundry, dump station, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. Walking trails, hiking, biking, and a playground fill the grounds, with boating, swimming, fishing, and canoeing and kayaking on the nearby water. The dark rural sky makes for genuinely good stargazing, which is worth planning an evening around. Pets are welcome. Forty-five acres for 30 sites gives the property real breathing room — this is a spacious south Alabama campground rather than a packed lot, and the space is what guests notice first. Henry County sits on the Georgia border where Walter F. George Lake, also called Lake Eufaula, backs up behind the Chattahoochee. The bass and crappie fishery there is among the best in the Southeast, and the Eufaula National Wildlife Refuge across the water is a serious birding destination, particularly for wintering waterfowl and wading birds. Spring and fall bring the best fishing and the most comfortable conditions in south Alabama, with summer drawing lake traffic. Reserve ahead for tournament weekends and holidays.

from $85/night

A Okay RV Park

17 RV Sites

A Okay RV Park in Dothan, AL, offers 17 full-hookup back-in RV sites with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 75 feet. Every site is a back-in carrying water, sewer, and electric. Every site takes all three amp services, and the park is rated big rig friendly — at 75 feet it will take a long coach, which is unusual for a 17-site park. Pets are welcome. A pond on the property provides the fishing, and golf is nearby. At this scale the park is quiet by default rather than by program. Dothan sits in the Wiregrass corner of southeast Alabama, near the Florida and Georgia lines — the self-styled Peanut Capital of the World, and a practical base for anyone working or traveling the tri-state area. Rates for nightly, weekly, and monthly stays are on the booking page. Seventeen big-rig-capable sites go quickly — call ahead.

from $99/night

Sunset King RV

34 RV Sites

Sunset King RV in DeFuniak Springs, Florida, offers 32 full-hookup back-in RV sites with 30 and 50-amp service, cable TV, and rigs accepted to 50 feet. Premium and standard back-in categories join an outdoor pool, hot tub, fitness center, clubhouse, and library in Walton County. Thirty-two back-in sites run in standard and premium categories, both carrying water, sewer, and electric with cable TV and site WiFi, sized to 50 feet. Two tiers keep booking simple. A laundry, propane fills and exchange, dump station, and RV storage handle the practical side. An outdoor pool and hot tub and sauna anchor the property, with a fitness center, clubhouse, library, sports courts, basketball, playground, and dog park filling the rest. A lake sits nearby for boating and fishing. Pets are welcome. The amenity set is genuinely resort-grade for a park this size — a hot tub, fitness center, and library are not standard at 32 sites, and they serve both the year-round residential community and visitors well. DeFuniak Springs is one of the more unusual towns in the Panhandle. Its downtown wraps a near-perfect circular spring-fed lake, one of only two naturally round lakes in the world, ringed by Victorian houses and the state's oldest continuously operating library. The Chautauqua movement built a winter assembly here in the 1880s and the auditorium still stands. The Emerald Coast beaches at Destin and 30A are about 45 minutes south. Spring and the winter snowbird months drive the heaviest demand in the inland Panhandle, with summer bringing beach traffic. Reserve ahead for January through April.
