Water Park

Sleepy Hollow RV Park

32 RV Sites

Laurel, Mississippi has had a bit of a cultural renaissance in recent years, and visitors who come to see the beautifully restored historic homes and craftsman bungalows of this charming small city need a comfortable place to stay while they explore. Sleepy Hollow RV Park, situated just north of Historic Laurel off Highway 11 along the Interstate 59 corridor, answers that need with a well-maintained, thoughtfully upgraded property that delivers genuine comfort in a relaxed Mississippi setting — without the big-city price tag. Sites feature mostly paved roads and concrete pads that make arrival clean and level regardless of weather conditions. Full hookups include 30- and 50-amp electric service, water, and sewer, with complimentary high-speed Wi-Fi included. The park's recently renovated bathhouses offer private suite-style facilities that set the standard well above the typical campground experience. Coin-operated laundry facilities with air conditioning make extended stays practical, and 24-hour security camera coverage throughout the property adds peace of mind. Cabins and rental units offer alternative accommodations for travelers who arrive without an RV. The heart of the park's outdoor amenities is a large, newly refurbished swimming pool — ideal for cooling off during Mississippi summers. A catch-and-release fishing pond with its own lighted fountain provides a tranquil fishing experience steps from your site. Kids will gravitate toward the dedicated playground, while pet owners appreciate the fenced dog park and the thoughtful addition of a dog wash station adjacent to the bathhouse. The park's lighted three-eighths-mile nature trail provides a pleasant circuit for morning or evening exercise without leaving the property. Propane exchange and a general store handle the supplies side of your stay. Historic Laurel sits just a short drive from the park and has become a notable destination for fans of artisan craftsmanship, Victorian architecture, and the kind of local pride that turns small towns into cultural landmarks. The Lauren Rogers Museum of Art, one of the South's most distinguished regional art collections, sits within the historic district. The Mississippi Sound and the Gulf Coast beaches at Hattiesburg and Biloxi are reachable for day trips, and state parks in the surrounding pine belt offer additional hiking and fishing options. Sleepy Hollow RV Park is open year-round, and its position directly off Interstate 59 — between Hattiesburg and Meridian — makes it a convenient overnight stop for travelers moving along the I-59 corridor as well as a comfortable home base for longer Laurel area exploration. Spring and fall bring the most pleasant temperatures, though Mississippi winters are mild by most standards. The 24-hour check-in process means late arrivals are never a problem. Reserve your site online and discover what makes Laurel, Mississippi a destination worth stopping for. The park's combination of thoughtful upgrades, highly convenient location, and affordable rates makes it one of the best-value campgrounds in the Mississippi pine belt.

Cherokee Camping

Weiss Lake earns its nickname — the "Crappie Capital of the World" — honestly, with more than 30,000 acres of water that have produced record-setting catches and dedicated fishing communities for decades. Cherokee Camping in Leesburg puts you squarely on those legendary shores, offering a campground designed for guests who want to wake up to mountain air, step outside to a lake view, and spend their days doing exactly what brought them to Cherokee County, Alabama in the first place. The campground offers a thoughtful selection of sites to fit different preferences and budgets. Standard sites include full hookups with 30- and 50-amp electric service, water, and sewer, while premium waterfront sites add the scenic bonus of direct lake views. Elite sites offer expanded space for guests who want extra room to spread out. A full bathhouse with hot showers, on-site laundry, a swimming pool, and a boat ramp with fishing dock ensure that both the practical and recreational bases are covered. Propane exchange and free Wi-Fi round out the day-to-day comforts. The walking trails that wind through the property are ideal for morning and evening strolls through the quiet scenery that defines this part of northeast Alabama. The gentle hills, the sound of the lake, and the crisp mountain air that rolls in from the ridgelines give Cherokee Camping a natural peacefulness that's difficult to replicate at busier destination resorts. Fishing from the dock, an evening launch from the boat ramp, or simply watching the sun settle over the water from a camp chair — the unhurried pace here is the point. Cherokee County's outdoor offerings extend well beyond the lakeshore. Cherokee Rock Village, just minutes away, presents a remarkable collection of natural rock formations with hiking trails, observation decks, and sweeping views across the surrounding ridges that have made it one of Alabama's hidden outdoor gems. Yellow Creek Falls adds a waterfall destination for short hikes, and for history and culture, Cornwall Furnace Park and the Cherokee Historical Museum provide meaningful context for the region's story. Nearby Gadsden offers additional dining, shopping, and services. Little River Canyon National Preserve, one of the deepest canyons east of the Mississippi, is within driving range for guests who want to extend their northeast Alabama adventure into some of the region's most dramatic geology. Cherokee Camping is a year-round property, though spring and fall deliver the most enjoyable conditions for fishing and outdoor exploration — mild temperatures, active fish, and uncrowded campgrounds make these the seasons favored by regulars. Summer brings warmer water, boat traffic, and the full energy of lake season. No matter when you visit, the combination of world-class fishing, peaceful natural surroundings, and a well-equipped campground makes Cherokee Camping a destination worth building your Alabama trip around. Reserve your site and come find out why Weiss Lake keeps anglers coming back.

Jellystone Park™ West Georgia

36 RV Sites, 10 Cabins, 6 Tent Sites

At the intersection of I-20 and U.S. Highway 27 in Bremen, Georgia, Jellystone Park™ West Georgia puts Atlanta's skyline less than an hour to the east while delivering a self-contained family resort experience designed to make the city feel completely irrelevant for the duration of the stay. As part of the national Jellystone Park network, the West Georgia location operates on a programming model that bundles campsite or cabin accommodations with themed entertainment, character appearances, and a water park that gives families a full-day activity lineup without leaving the property. The resort accommodates tent campers, pull-through RV sites with full hookups, and a variety of cabin configurations ranging from basic to quite comfortable, giving traveling families the flexibility to camp in their preferred style. The waterpark complex includes two swimming pools — including a dedicated kiddie pool — and an inflatable Wibit water obstacle course that draws campers back to the pool multiple times a day. Character appearances from Yogi Bear and Boo-Boo, wagon rides, train rides, miniature golf, gaga ball, and a large playground fill the schedule with organized and self-directed options that keep children occupied from breakfast through evening programs. Pets are welcome for families traveling with four-legged members. The West Georgia landscape surrounding the resort is gently rolling and tree-lined in the manner of the Piedmont, with Haralson County's patchwork of farmland, woodlands, and small towns providing a welcome contrast to the Atlanta metro density just an hour east. Wooded pockets and open activity areas blend naturally throughout the campground's layout, creating an atmosphere that feels simultaneously energetic during peak activity hours and genuinely relaxed when the evening programs wind down and guests settle around fire rings across the grounds. Stone Mountain Park, a Georgia landmark east of Atlanta, features its iconic exposed granite dome, a cable car ride to the summit, and laser-and-fireworks shows during peak season — a full half-day or longer from the resort. The Georgia Aquarium in downtown Atlanta, the largest aquarium in the Western Hemisphere, and the National Center for Civil and Human Rights are both worth the drive for families spending multiple nights at the resort. The Silver Comet Trail, a paved multi-use rail-trail stretching 61 miles across western Georgia toward Alabama, passes through Rockmart and Cedartown and is particularly well-suited to cyclists staying near its western terminus. Jellystone Park™ West Georgia operates through the main camping season from spring through fall, with peak summer weeks in July and August and character-themed weekend events in June driving the heaviest demand. Cabin bookings fill well in advance for any summer date, so families with specific configuration needs should reserve early. The I-20 positioning also makes the resort a convenient and distinctly non-boring overnight stop for travelers passing through Georgia heading deeper into the South — a genuine step up from the roadside alternatives along this corridor.

Two Lakes RV Resort

35 RV Sites

In Gulf Shores, Alabama—on Alabama's 32-mile Gulf Coast where Gulf State Park's pristine white sand beaches, the Waterville USA water park, the OWA amusement park and entertainment district, and the Fort Morgan Peninsula's Civil War fortifications create the family and outdoor recreation destination that Baldwin County's Alabama Gulf Coast has built into one of the South's most popular beach resort communities—Two Lakes RV Resort provides 110 premium full hookup sites on 16-by-80-foot concrete pads with 50-amp service, water, and sewer, a heated outdoor pool open daily, a large clubhouse with a kitchen, fitness center, and laundry, high-speed fiber optic WiFi, cable TV, a dog park, a pickleball court, gazebos, a community firepit and grill, and the gated access that a deeded-lot resort maintaining its infrastructure for both seasonal renters and permanent lot owners requires in the Gulf Shores resort market. Concrete pads and fiber WiFi. Heated pool. Gulf State Park is minutes away. The 110 premium sites on 16-by-80-foot concrete pads—50-amp electric with water and sewer, fiber optic high-speed WiFi, and cable TV—deliver the resort infrastructure standard at the site level that Gulf Shores' competitive RV resort market demands for the motorcoach traveler whose Alabama Gulf Coast week centers on the beach days and the Waterville USA water park afternoons. The heated outdoor pool's 9-to-9 daily operation accommodates the pre-beach and post-beach swimmer, the rainy Gulf day's water recreation alternative, and the December-to-February snowbird whose outdoor pool access in the Alabama winter distinguishes the Gulf Shores stay from the Tennessee winter it replaced. The large clubhouse with kitchen, the fitness center, the laundry, the dog park, and the pickleball court create the resort's daily social and practical infrastructure alongside the gazebos, firepit, and grill that the community outdoor gathering space organizes around. The gated entry serves the deeded-lot ownership community's security standard. Gulf Shores sits in Baldwin County on the Gulf of Mexico at the intersection of AL-59 and AL-182, in the resort community that the 22-mile Perdido Key-to-Fort Morgan Gulf beach corridor sustains alongside Gulf State Park's 6,150 acres of pine forests, freshwater lakes, and 2.5 miles of Gulf beach—the resort park's nature center, the Lake Shelby kayaking and fishing, and the 28 miles of multi-use trails that the state park's non-beach acreage encompasses create the outdoor recreation complement to the Gulf of Mexico swimming and shell collecting that the coastal resort's primary identity centers on. Waterville USA, 5 miles north on AL-59, operates the Gulf Coast's largest water park—the Wave Pool, the Cannonball Run tube slide, and the Splash Zone children's play area create the water park experience that the Gulf Shores family combines with the natural Gulf beach days in the typical Alabama beach week's activity split. OWA Parks & Resort, 15 miles north in Foley, provides the 23-ride amusement park, dining and entertainment district, and Tanger Outlets shopping—the largest new Baldwin County attraction in decades. Fort Morgan, 20 miles west on AL-180, preserves the 19th-century fortification that guarded the entrance to Mobile Bay through the Civil War's Battle of Mobile Bay in August 1864. Two Lakes RV Resort operates year-round in Baldwin County's subtropical Gulf Coast climate, with the summer beach season from Memorial Day through Labor Day the peak visitor period and the winter snowbird season from November through March maintaining the high occupancy that the heated pool and the Gulf Shores mild winter temperatures sustain. Reserve your concrete-pad site at Two Lakes and let the fiber WiFi, the heated pool, and Gulf State Park's 2.5 miles of white sand deliver the Alabama Gulf Coast resort stay that the South's most popular beach community provides at the premium lot standard.

Sugar Sands RV Resort

75 RV Sites, 5 Tiny Houses

Sugar Sands RV Resort in Gulf Shores, Alabama, offers 75 full-hookup RV sites and five tiny houses in Baldwin County's prime beach territory, with 30 and 50-amp service, cable TV, and rigs accepted up to 110 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout.

One hundred ten feet is among the most generous capacities on the Gulf Coast, and naming categories by what they sit next to — the clubhouse or the pool — makes the choice concrete. Five tiny houses round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, propane fills and exchange, restrooms, showers, and boat storage handle the practical side. Rates cover two people and exclude tax; additional guests over age four are $5 per person per night, to a maximum of six per RV site. A splash pad and outdoor pool anchor the summer, with a fitness center, recreation center, clubhouse, shuffleboard, corn hole, a playground, community fire pit, and dog park besides.

Vortex Spring Adventures

75 RV Sites, 3 Cabins, 14 Motel Rooms, 1 House, 6 Apartments

Vortex Spring Adventures in Ponce de Leon, Florida, offers 75 RV sites with electric service alongside 24 apartment, cabin, house, and motel-room accommodations at one of the most celebrated freshwater diving destinations in the continental United States. A water park, boat rentals, and a snack bar serve the dive community and family swimmers at a first-magnitude spring. Seventy-five back-in RV sites carry electric service — note there are no water or sewer hookups at the sites, though a dump station is on site, so plan tank capacity accordingly. Twenty-four apartments, cabins, houses, and motel rooms provide enclosed lodging, which suits divers arriving without equipment. A general store, restrooms, and a snack bar handle the practical side. One booking note: campers entering the park before 4:00pm are charged for the previous night's camping. The spring is the entire reason to come. Crystal-clear 68-degree water surges year-round from a 30-foot-wide vent into a natural swimming basin, with visibility conditions that make this a training and certification destination for thousands of scuba divers annually. The cavern entrance sits 58 feet deep, and a wetsuit is recommended for diving even in summer given the constant water temperature. Snorkeling, swimming, paddle boarding, and boating round out the water recreation, with boat rentals, a water park, recreation center, and playground for the family market. Pets are welcome. Ponce de Leon sits in Holmes County in the Florida Panhandle, where the spring system draws divers from across the Southeast. The spring runs 68 degrees year-round, which makes this a genuinely four-season destination — though summer family traffic is the peak. Reserve ahead for warm-weather weekends.

Bayberry RV Park

33 RV Sites

Bayberry RV Park sits in Gulfport, Mississippi—a Streamside Parks property on the Mississippi Gulf Coast half a mile from Gulf Islands Waterpark and minutes from the beaches of Harrison County that line the city's 26 miles of Gulf frontage. Gulfport's position midway along the 62-mile developed Mississippi Coast between Waveland in the west and Pascagoula in the east places Bayberry within reach of the full coastal recreation, casino, and seafood restaurant infrastructure that defines the Mississippi Coast's tourism economy. Full hookup sites with 30 and 50-amp electric service, water, and sewer accommodate big rig travelers in a pet-friendly configuration with dedicated dog park, WiFi, laundry, clean showers and bathrooms, and picnic tables at each site. A playground covers children's on-site recreation, and a community fire pit provides the evening social gathering space that the Gulf Coast's mild climate makes practical for most of the camping season. Propane exchange service handles fuel supply for cooking and climate control, and the park's big rig friendly site configuration reflects its position on the I-10 corridor where large coaches regularly transit the Gulf Coast. Gulfport Beach is minutes from the campground—the long, white-sand beach that the Harrison County Sand Beach Authority maintains along the full length of Gulfport's beachfront boulevard, with free public parking, picnic facilities, and the Gulf's warm water that makes swimming practical from April through October. Gulf Islands Waterpark, a half mile from the campground, provides the water slide and wave pool entertainment that makes it one of the Mississippi Coast's primary family attraction options during the summer season. The proximity of two distinct water recreation options — the natural Gulf beach and the commercial waterpark — within walking distance or a very short drive gives Bayberry a water access situation unusual for an inland-positioned campground. The Mississippi Aquarium in downtown Gulfport provides a compelling indoor alternative during the Gulf Coast's occasional summer heat and afternoon thunderstorm windows — the aquarium's 12 fresh and saltwater habitat exhibits house over 200 species including bottlenose dolphins, North American river otters, sharks, stingrays, and Gulf Coast native species in one of the newer and more comprehensive aquariums in the Southeast. The Gulf Coast casino corridor — casinos operating in Biloxi, Gulfport, Bay St. Louis, and elsewhere along the coast — provides evening entertainment, dining, and live music programming year-round, and the seafood restaurants that serve fresh Gulf shrimp, oysters, crab, and redfish in the Harrison and Hancock County coastal communities represent some of the most distinctive dining in the Deep South. Bayberry RV Park operates year-round on the Mississippi Gulf Coast, where the subtropical climate delivers genuinely mild winters — December through February temperatures typically ranging from 45 to 65 degrees — that make it one of the more comfortable Gulf Coast winter camping options between the Florida panhandle and Louisiana. The spring and fall shoulder seasons offer the best combination of moderate temperatures and reduced visitor density, and hurricane season awareness from June through November is a standard Gulf Coast camping consideration that the campground's I-10 proximity makes evacuation routing straightforward to plan.

Serendipity Resort & Campground

4 Cabins, 9 Yurts

Serendipity Resort & Campground in Brownsville, Tennessee, offers four A-frame cabins and nine yurts on a lake in Haywood County, with a water park, outdoor pool, beach, and disc golf course. Golf cart rentals, on-site dining, and a bar serve guests in the Hatchie River corridor of West Tennessee. Four A-frame cabins and nine yurts make up the accommodations — this is glamping and cabin lodging rather than an RV park. A general store, restrooms, firewood, and WiFi serve the property. Check-in is 3:00pm and check-out 11:00am. Note that four-wheelers and side-by-sides are not permitted, though golf carts are available to rent — contact the resort for rates. The water is the draw. A lake and pond support fishing, canoeing, kayaking, paddle boats, and boating, with a beach and water park for swimming and an outdoor pool alongside. A disc golf course, horseshoes, biking, a playground, and a pavilion fill the grounds, with on-site dining and a bar for evenings. Pets are welcome. Brownsville sits on US-70 between Memphis and Jackson, which gives the resort practical West Tennessee highway access. The Hatchie National Wildlife Refuge protects a nationally significant stretch of bottomland hardwood nearby — the Hatchie is the longest un-channelized river in the lower Mississippi valley, and the surrounding agricultural landscape has kept its character. The resort serves the West Tennessee season. Summer water recreation drives the heaviest demand, with spring and fall delivering more comfortable conditions for the outdoor programming. With 13 units total, reserve well ahead for any weekend.
