Our stay was great! The park was clean & all hook ups were in good working order. Check in was a breeze, just going straight in to our site, no stop by the office required. The spot was expensive, but expected I guess during Bama football season. On the purge hands, it is very convenient to all things Bama football. It's located about 8 miles from Bryant Denny Stadium.

This was my second stay here. This time I was over in the East end & I think it was s little quieter. I was a little seasick by the time I left, from being unlevel. Iwould have expected better for $55/ night. I think I was in space 41. Mine & 43 were both 3-4" of level side to side. I could have used leveling blocks, but didn't arrive until about 8pm & was too tired.

Sunset RV was a perfect overnight stay as we were traveling back home from a four week trip in the north east. It was an easy process to book online that morning, easy access from the interstate, level cement pads long enough for the motorhome and toad, and very clean.

Excellent RV park. We stayed 3 nights. Everything was great for our short stay…well-maintained, friendly staff and sweet Miss Kitty to greet us! Yes, busy traffic nearby, but it wasn’t visible from the property. We stayed on the west side.

We were going to be in the area for 1 night for a couple of meetings on the following day. There was no way I was going to be able to get done by the 11 am checkout, but they worked with me so that I could have a few more hours. We were in the East lot and pull-throughs were very easy to navigate. Power, water, and sewer were conveniently located. Area was very clean with no "run-down" looking campers. I did walk the dog over to the main lot and all campers there were also well maintained. There is a large grass area along the road for walking the dog and pet waste stations are provided. There is a little interstate noise, but it was not noticeable at all to us, about like being on the backside of a large rest area. We will definitely stay here again.
