Meaher State Park

Merry Stanford

The best thing about this park is being on Mobile Bay for the sunsets and the wildlife - pelicans plunging for fish, the occasional alligator in the water. The lots are flat and paved, with full service outlets (electricity, water, sanitation), and a laundry on campus. The restrooms were extremely clean but oddly spartan - for example, no trash receptacles in the stalls in the women's rest room. You can hear the noise from Hwy 98 at this park. Great for a couple nights while exploring the Mobile area.

Decided to stay one night while enroute to St. George Island. Park is very clean, sites are nice size, very level. We enjoyed a stroll on the boardwalk and saw an alligator eating its dinner. Showers/restrooms are clean. Each site has picnic table and grill, with full hook ups.

For our girls trip, we found this park to tent camp while visiting the Mushroom Festival in Fairhope. We stayed at campsite 33, which is just steps from the water and has a little bench under a tree to sit on to enjoy the view of the Bay. There are water and electric at each site. The people here are so friendly and the facilities are clean. There is a coin laundry area, a kayak drop-in & rental, and a dock to walk out on to fish or just enjoy the view! Not every site has tree coverage so make sure if you want to have a couple of trees near you to just look up YouTube reviews that visit each site ... this is what helped me pick site 33 because I wanted to be near the water and have trees around us. We would definitely stay here again!!

Great stop for a couple of hours - parked in a small shaded lot by the boardwalk. nice walk over the marsh - birds, turtles. saw lots of signs warning about gators but saw no gators. $3 per person for a day pass and they let us fill up our water tank at an open RV site. thank - you!!

First time here. Meaher is a gorgeous state park. It's in close proximity to all kinds of things. Bathhouse/restrooms are clean and comfortable. Sites are spacious and spaced far enough apart. Beautiful views of the bay - at sunrise and sunset. Plenty of gators to be seen. Staff was super friendly. Went straight across the road, to the government building, and got my out of state fresh water fishing license. Full hook-ups uos were nice. The pedestal grill was OK- but the wind kinda makes it hard to grill on it. No fire pits at campsites but with the amount of pine needles carpeting the ground I understand why. No biggie. Be sure and sweep/blow needles off the tops of your slide outside before retracting tem in. Just a suggestion. Overall it is a lovely place and we will be back sometime.
