The manager of the park was wonderful. This is a park that sells deeded lots. The developer was not nice and actually rude. The park is new but will need much work in the future due to the developer's inability to design the park efficiently. The run-off drains were in the middle of the roads and the water ran around them. The roads were narrow and it is impossible to back a big rig in without going on your neighbor's lot. Pull throughs would be a stretch for a big rig but easy for a 5th wheel. Insects were everywhere. Now for the good stuff. All the rental sites were concrete, wide and level. There is a small cafe in the campground and the food is Awesome. The residents that live there are some of the best and nicest people we have ever met. Campground is close to anything you need. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is a new up scale recreational vehicle resort. The sites are privately owned. There are still sites available for purchase, buyer receives a deed to the site. There are weekly and monthly rates. Many restrictions on the type, year, and size of your recreational vehicle. All sites are 15 x 40 concrete with an additional 15 x 30 concrete patio. Large clubhouse with meeting rooms, exercise room, convenience store, restaurant, and swimming pool. Water, sewer, electric (50 amp service) on each site. Laundry facilities at two bath houses. Public boat launch is one mile away. There are three spring fed fishing ponds on site and future boat storage in process of being built. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Great roads & sites - a little hard to get on & off of some of them - should be a great park when finished - will use it again We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This is a very fun place but the roads and facilties could use repair. Some of the free sites are not real level and access is somewhat difficult. The large majority of the sites are rented on a permanent basis so reservations are needed on major weekends. No pool but does have a sandy beach area (roped off in water) on Lake Guntersville. Also has boat launch and piers. The permanent "residents" were extremely friendly.
We camped here in a camper.
The campground has a great view of the Tennessee river. If you own a boat, bring it and you'll discover the meaning of, "Sweet Home Alabama". The campground is packed all of the time. The restrooms are cleaned everyday and the staff are nice and helpful. Deer watching is a fun activity at dusk. Be sure to check out the views of the lake while on your way up the mountain to the lodge that overlooks the campground and lake. The restaurant is great! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Our site was very out of level and very close to the sites on either side. The sewer was stopped up on our site and the maintenance man worked on it as soon as we let the office know of the problem but it gave us problems the whole time we were there. Both times we tried to drain our black tank we made a mess. The areas that need improvement are the full hookup sites. We will stay there again but it will be by the lake without sewer and we will just take our portable blue sewer tank with us. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
My wife and I stayed here for 2 days and had a blast. We enjoy hiking so the park was perfect for us. The hiking trails were well marked and well kept. The park was clean and the staff was very helpful. The sites were level and had gravel where we parked. I had no trouble navigating the roads. We will definitely stay again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Beware. The office staff is very unorganized. Don't bother asking where you will be staying in the park... the park does not give you a site until you arrive. You could end up in the parking lot or the primitive section. (bring your generator) The park host and some other employees do not follow the rules (feeding deer, leash laws, reserving sites with autos)... so why should anyone else? My family and I will not be back! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

I enjoyed the Campground itself, young people in the office were very disorganized. The Camp Hosts where above the rules. They parked their car on a site for 3 days to reserve and moved it to another site for a day. Sites are supposed to be paid for and have a Tent or Camper on them. They feed the deer, signs everywhere saying not to do it. Their dog never on a leash and he decorated my site 2 times. Why should anybody in the Park obey the rules if they don't? We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is a huge state park. I had no problem finding the park but got lost twice inside it on the way to the campground. Lots of trees. Facilities were mostly clean and reasonably well maintained. The laundry I used was in very good shape. Staff was friendly and helpful. There were several sites with what appeared to be long term residents. Some of the RVs looked like they had been there for long enough that they probably weren't roadworthy anymore. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Park is in a beautiful setting, but had a really strange layout. Pull through sites were small and the utility hook-ups were on the wrong side, e.g. facing uphill rather than the lake. The view toward the lake looked through the Storage Area in the section we were in. With only a 29 foot trailer, you had to park the truck crossways in front of the trailer and we were so close to the road that we were afraid that someone would speed through and hit the trailer. Good hiking trails in the park and lots of deer. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Just spent 4 days at this SP with grandchildren. Kids enjoyed the playground and bicycle riding as well as fishing (even though none were caught). Out of 5 bathouses I know the two I went into were clean. They are rather old but are kept pretty clean. No AC but did have exhaust fans and wall heaters for winter. We love the sections by the lake. This trip we stayed in B section with sewer because of our kids and no sewer sites near the lake available but next time we will get next to the lake regardless of sewer availability. Deer came into the campground and I even saw a gentleman feeding one by hand. Not something the campground encourages. Tennis courts, basketball courts and volleyball courts on site. Large sandy beach area for swimming and several docks for fishing. We got good satelite reception. We will definately return. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This campground really grew on us. The more we stayed, the more we liked it. The beach area was very nice, the kids loved it. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
We went here in the late winter. There is a very scenic lake and lots to do in the area, including Bald Eagle watching. The sites were covered with pine straw and the paved area of many of the sites was pretty small. The sites are fairly well spaced. Deer regularly come into the campground. Overall, a very decent campground We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We really enjoyed this park. The reason for such a low rating was the condition of the facilities. While we were there (6 nights), I think the toilets and showers were only cleaned once and that was on Friday. I know for a fact that the trash can was dumped only one time. It was a good thing we have large holding tanks! Otherwise, it is a beautiful park situated on Lake Guntersville. It is noted for eagle sightings in the winter months. The view from the lodge overlooking the lake is spectacular. If the restrooms were cleaner this place would rate a 10++. We camped here in a camper.
This is a beautiful campground on a lake. It is very remote. We particularly liked the back-in sites facing the clubhouse and playground area. Sites are gravel and not level. We camped here in a motorhome under our Coast to Coast membership. Site selection is on a first-come first-serve basis which could be a challenge for big rigs during their busy, peak season. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We were met at the gate by very rude camp host. I arrived on Thursday night. I am a member of Camp Club USA. I was told the weekend started on Thursday night so they wouldn't honor my card. We weren't shown to our sites. Just drove around till we found one. Lots of people living at this campground. Our site was in full sun with no shade. The roads are very dusty. I would not recommend this campground to anyone. People drove around all night in golf carts. Needless to say I want go back. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This is our "home" campground that will always be our first choice for a weekend getaway. The park is huge and has something for everyone. With the size of the campground, you can get as close to the action or as far away as you'd like. There is basketball, putt-putt, tennis, game room, LARGE rec area, 2 swimming pools and a marina. In the rec hall is a cafe/diner that you can get meals at if you wish. We feel very safe here and usually everybody that stays here are very observant of the rules. We recommend this to anyone looking for a place to stay in the north Alabama area. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Large campground. A lot of traffic flowing through on un-paved roads. Small children at risk of injury. Sites very large, but gravel and often un-level. I would stay again. Tennessee River along park is worth the trip. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Park has lots to do including indoor pool, game room, playground, putt putt (old and in need of updating), tennis, basketball, shuffle board and just wide open spaces and fishing. Only problem was staff very unfriendly. Only saw 2 smile during the whole visit. Staff not kid friendly. Maybe it was their off week, don't know. However, we won't be back. Campfires allowed only in elevated containers. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Large Coast to Coast Park. Sites are spacious and well maintained. 2 pools, 2 spas. Lots of activities. Great lake front park. Cell phones don't work well here. We love this park and will keep coming back. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Great facilities - indoor and outdoor polls, big meeting spaces, boat docks, etc. A number of sites have no shade but new trees have been planted. Well cared for. I was there in spring so bugs weren't a problem but I heard that they can be bad in summer. Waterfront sites don't have sewer. No cable TV and weak antenna reception. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This park has many full-time residents but has lots of sites for vacationers. The property is on Lake Guntersville. We were there in December so it was very quiet and serene, although we were awakened one morning by the sounds of duck hunters firing away. We will visit here again in the warmer months as it is a beautiful and very friendly place. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
