If you need a stop while traveling this is a good spot right off Interstate 65. Was escorted to our site and bathroom/showers are clean. No military discount for economy sites when booking online.

We stayed at the campground as a last minute thing as my truck developed a serious issue which needed it to go into the repair shop before we could continue on our journey to Florida with our 5th wheel. We arrived and met Vickie who helped us find a site. We explained our predicament and said that we did not know how many nights it might be as it was late in the afternoon and I would need to take the truck to the dealer which was a 30 minute drive away and it was close to closing time for the shop. Vicky and the other staff were very accommodating and said we could rent the site day by day depending how long the repair for the truck would take. After one night, we asked for a late check out because we thought the truck might be ready by the end of that day. We also said that we might need a second night if the truck still wasn’t ready. We were charged $10 plus tax for the late checkout fee which was fine with us. As it turned out, the truck repair was completed late in the day so we decided to stay the second night. In the morning when we were checking out, I discovered that I had been charged for 2 nights plus the late check out fee. I asked why this was and was told that it should be removed but the manager would have to do it when she came to work later. Later on in the day, I called and spoke to a male in the office who told me that they couldn’t refund the late checkout fee because their system would not allow for it. I have no issues with the park or the staff but I feel that this was unfair even after I explained that my truck repair cost me $1800. I’m Canadian so that’s more like $2500 for me.

1. Great Staff, well prepared for our arrival. 2. Great Location, right off I-65, near stores/groceries. 3. Nice pull thru site, shaded, clean, 4. Too cold for pool, great laundry & shower/toilets. 5. Priced reasonably. 6. We'd stay again.

We had a great pull through site, very easy to get into. Our site was spacious, with nices trees, and a nice concrete patio. The campground is well-maintained and the staff was friendly when we checked-in. There were a few trains with some loud horns overnight, but the rest of the evening and night was very quiet. We will definitely go back.

Very clean, lovely resort far enough off the highway to mitigate the noise, but close enough for easy access. WiFi was excellent, bathrooms were very clean and updated. Will definitely stay here again!

Excellent very woodsy park on the south side of Birmingham, AL. Nice, quiet, spacious spots, bathroom and showers were very clean and nice. People were very friendly. It is right off I-65 but not much interstate noise. Has some monthly people living their but they had their sites neat and their units were in good condition. Food and gas options are closed by.

Campground & bathrooms were very clean. Didn't have fire rings which would have been nice but for our stay there was a burn ban so we couldn't have utilized them anyways. Staff was very helpful and knowledgeable of the area. Definitely will stay there again

Would give this a 5 star except I think it is overpriced for RV sites ($66 per night) and for laundry ($2.5 to $3 per load). The people working there are great, helpful & friendly. We ordered propane and the guy came to our site to take the tank & brought it back full. Price for propane seemed reasonable for the service. The campground is old, but well maintained, some sites seem unlevel, most are not. WiFi was consistent and adequate for streaming. I do like this park and it is convenient off I-65, but why so pricey? We full time so have stayed in hundreds of campgrounds, many just as nice and less expensive.

The park is conveniently located right off 65 for an easy pull in. The staff is friendly. Many amenities. Very clean. Located near a fantastic cajun restaurant. My one complaint is that it's next to a railroad from.midnight to 130 x3 trains came in and blew their horns and sounded like they were 10 ft away. We only stayed one night so I don't know if this is an every night occurrence but when you are traveling we would have liked a full night's rest. But the camp itself was quiet and very clean

Birmingham South RV is a very nice facility, with large, spacious lots. Easy in/easy out with my 40’ BlueBird and Toad. But the best part is the staff that makes you feel so welcomed and valued as a customer. If I hadn’t had a commitment requiring my continued travel, I sure would have loved to stay longer.

Where do I begin? At first glance it seemed like a cute little campground! A small pool, a little play area for the kids, an area for your dogs. Seemed cute! ...Until ... we parked the rig! 1. Our site (18) was completely UNLEVELED ! If we are paying top dollar for a campground, and the first thing we notice is that the spot is completely crooked, I expect to be compensated. Would even have trouble with a self-leveling rig. However, when I brought this up to the front desk, I was told that they had no idea. And they did nothing about it. Actually, they seemed bothered. 2. We were promised decent Wi-Fi, and I should have expected that all to be lies. The Wi-Fi at this campground is extremely glitchy and sucks. There must be major gamers in this campground despite what the front desk will tell you. Be prepared to not get Wi-Fi even though they claim they have it. 3. We stayed here total of 2 weeks, and for last 2 days of our stay they shut off water to deal with a leak that was only suppose to take 1 day to fix. So for a total of an entire day we were out of water. Remember we are paying for this spot and now didn't have that amenity. Of course no offer to compensate us whatsoever. SOOOO UNPROFESSIONAL! 4. Our site was INFESTED with ants. Not even our spray way ridding them 5. Tree branches are VERY low. Scraping the top of our camper . 6. The cherry on top was the citation we were given the FIRST day there when we had both vehicles (that fit on site), told to move! They did this to us, but after driving around the park and seeing other sites with two vehicles and them have no citations, I got mad. They pick and choose which sites to tell them to park in overflow, and other sites they'll allow people to park their cars and empty campsites close to their rig. When I called and mentioned this, I was chuckled at by lady. She reassured me she gives them to everyone, however other people's cars stayed on their site, Even though their cars were sticking into the street. This place is a complete joke!

We needed a place to camp close to my office for my 1st couple of weeks back to work after having bypass surgery just to eliminate 2 hours of commute time from each day. It served my purpose well. The park was neat and clean. We didn't have problems with people stealing things left out during the night or day. There's a train nearby that blows its horn at nearby crossings. If that sort of thing bothers you, don't come here. My wife and were easily able to ignore it. It was a bit on the pricier side for a campground. There were quite a few shady spots, but some were not. Be sure to look for the shade if you're coming in the hotter months.

Great park that was well kept. Staff was friendly. It was probably 20 minutes off of I20. We arrived at 5:30pm and left at 7:30am. Park was quiet, but traffic into and out of the area was literally stop and go for several miles. Nothing the park can do about that, but it might help others plan.

Good for an Overnight Stay! Good WIFI. One word of caution, the Exit out of the park is on a steep slope and intersects with county road. Blind Spot and you have to just go for it. Not the safest of exits. But, it is a decent park and good for a quick one night stay!

This is a great RV park. It was very easy to move the trailer in and out of it, and the shower/washroom facilities were clean and well maintained. This was our inaugural trip in a new RV trailer, and for a shakedown trip, it was great. It was also very convenient to Blue Water dive center where we went scuba diving. Will definitely try here again.
