Too bad we were on an overnight stay only. Very clean. Nicely decorated for fall. Escorted to our site where a personal welcome sign awaited. Didn't use the restrooms etc but would expect them to be spotless like the rest of the place. Pool was inviting. Spaces a little closer than we prefer but so nice otherwise! Welcome gift: jar of Amish Traffic Jam (jam) - MsLucy

Without doubt the nicest, cleanest RV resort we've ever stayed at. On our way home after a 12,000 mile roadtrip, this was just an overnight stay. Just wish it was for longer. Met at the gate by the owner, escorted to our site, ensured that everything was ok, gave us a small jar of preserves as a welcome gift. Nice touch. Sites are very spacious, level, manicured, nice patio, new table, nicely landscaped. Pool is very nice, clean, resort style. Bathrooms - we'd be happy to have them in our home! Private rooms, beautifully appointed. After staying in around 25 campgrounds in the 3 month trip, guess we saved the best for last. - AlanH1

This has to be one of the nicest RV Parks we've ever stayed on. The pool is beautiful and crystal clear. The laundry and bathroom facilities are fabulous. All the sites have a concrete patio. We'll definitely be back. - Janet-UK

OK, so we were evacuating due to Hurricane Irma and this was the ONLY place we could find that had a site available. At that point I wasn't picky. However, this place is really run down & trashy looking. Many of the RV's have been there 10 yrs or more and they look it! Really old, dirty, with junk all around them. And at $40.00 per night, it was ridiculous. On the good side, we had full hook-ups, cable worked great with a lot of channels and the staff were nice but they couldn't give me a WiFi password without all my devices' ID addresses for them to put in their computer. Huh? No one else does this so I said forget it. There is a pool, laundry, shower/bathroom at the house structure (where the owners live I presume) that is much nicer than the rest of the park. We stayed only one night because I knew we could get something better for $40/night. Unless you have no other choice, move on. - new FL camper

Awful place, a feeling of creepy sums it up best. We drove in, met owner, and left. Worst park I ever drove into (and out of). Plenty of other parks down the road if you are going to Bellingrath Gardens. - User2407

Great host who waited up for us to get there after 9:00 at night. Utilities were excellent and the park residents were all quite and friendly. Many workers are here for the oil spill clean up but they were as quiet as church mice getting in and out of the park. You won't find a better good old boy than the man who runs this campground. A fair price and level camp. - JWT

Entrance to the Park was down a long single lane road. The setting looked very peaceful and comfortable. My first thought, based on previous reviews was one of concern. I thought it would be more of a farm-like appearance, but not so. Granted there is many droppings of goose poop, but it was not overwhelming. Did not notice much of any odor. Sites are grass and gravel, FHUs with 30 and 50 amp service. We just had two days of heavy rain but all sites were clean and dry. Check in was easy; good satellite and cell service. We were there for just one night. I-10 was 30 minutes away. - Nautilus

Nice overnight stop about 3 1/2 miles off I10. An older campground with limited amenities no cable, wifi not working but pretty rural setting well kept and clean. A few older full time campers but neatly kept. Water,sewer, and good electric. Would stay here again. - Chuck333

Nice, quiet park, with easy in and out. Friendly owners, easy check-in. We only stayed 1 night on our way through the area. We paid $21.80 after tax, with Passport America. Bathrooms/showers were not fancy but clean enough. Though we didn't use the laundry room, it was clean and spacious. We chose a back-in site with lots of shade, as it was hot and humid. Our site was dirt with a little grass. We used blocks to level easily. The grounds are well kept with a nice pond. We enjoyed watching the geese and ducks with their babies. Other reviews mention smells, we did smell the waterfowl and there were a few chickens behind us near the maintenance shed, but it wasn't bothersome. Only noise was Mr. Rooster, he let us know when to wake up:) But it wasn't a problem. We would stay here again. - Fun Full-timers

This place was really old. You could tell that upkeep was not a priority. The residents there, were just that, residents. No vacationers other than us, just people that have lived there for a really long time. - refugee

The bathrooms were nasty. The park was nasty. Looked to be run down and full of trashy people. The cops were out there several times during our stay here. From other residents talking to us there is a lot of theft going on in this park you have to watch your stuff. Very loud. All night long loud vehicles kept passing our fifth wheel waking us up. Not well lighted at all. Lot of junk at everyone's campsite. - Cassie73

Needed a place for one night. This place fit the bill. Close to I-10 and easy in and out. 64 cable channels that actually work. Perfect for overnight stop. - John McK

My lot was on the last row and it was very quite. I had great neighbors, I will return to this campground. - sparksarehers

Stayed briefly in July. Lady at front desk was very nice and accommodating. Didn't use restrooms/bathhouse. View of the pond on the premises is very relaxing and peaceful. Also noticed they have cute little cabins for rent. Overall we enjoyed our stay and will go back if in the area again. - sweetp

Very nice with paved roads and gravel sites. Long back in and very long concrete pull thru sites. On Hwy 90 and 2 miles off I-10. Many towering trees for almost complete canopy of shade. Only a few sites with satellite signals. Cable tv, antenna TV good, no wi-fi. Good cell signal. Nice pool and large on-site fishing pond with walk path. Good on-site restaurant. OK for big rigs. Mostly seasonal rigs but well maintained. Park clean and staff helpful. Will stay there again. - Pepper Dan

A very neat and clean campground with mostly spacious sites. Some sites are all concrete, but ours was a level limestone pull-thru with a concrete patio. Entire campground is shaded with lots of huge oak trees and I loved all the squirrels running around. Mostly permanent residents living here, but all campsites are clean, no outside junk, and no real old nor FEMA campers. Friendly neighbors, a nice 12 acre fishing pond, new pool and a restaurant with good food on grounds. Sites did not have picnic tables, BBQ pits nor firepits which we don't use anyway unless grandkids are with us. Did not use laundry or bathhouses, so cannot comment on this. I recommend and will definitely stay here again - but will request to be further away from the noisy, busy highway next time. - Countrygal1

This is a very nice RV Park and the owner is really great at running it. Will be going back more often. - Susan Williams

The CG owner, was an excellent host. We were treated very hospitably. The site was level and clean, and the laundry area, bathrooms and shower area were clean. This CG had some full-time residents but this wasn't an issue. Very quiet except for tree trimming on the last morning of our stay--but this has to happen. Cable and wi-fi worked fine. It was a great CG for exploring Mobile, AL, due to the email confirmation I received about ants from the Meaher State Park staff. No ants in my pants at Shady Acres. - webtrainer

Turning off of the main road at the intersection on to Old Military rd was difficult. Signs were not good until you were right up to it. But I would stay there again. Since my wife had her plants in the shower, she went into the bath house to check it out. She came back quickly to remove the plants to take a shower. The place is a combo of men and women showers, rec room, and laundry room with security cameras. - retiredblade

Without going into great detail, allow me to merely state that were were treated rudely by the owner/management. The available amenities are in poor repair, the landscaping had been let go badly and the grass was un-mowed. We were infested by sugar ants throughout our stay. This is more of a long-term stay park with lots of mobile homes interspersed among the RVs. The park sites are not level as the park is located on a slope. The office doesn't keep an regular hours. Next time we'd rather drive an extra hour out of our way to avoid this miserable park. Why it is rated by Trailer Life I can't imagine. - oRV

Although close to Mobile, this is not a campground. It is a full time trailer park with 8 sites for transients. The park is for sale and the owner/manager does not seem interested in renting out overnight spots. In fact, he was downright rude. No restrooms, no facilities and a very narrow road make this a poor choice for an overnight stay in Mobile. We will not return. - lmg

We were here only 1 night but it was comfortable and nice. - fdr

This is a 40 year led RV Park that is softly long-term locals living there, some the full 40 years. It's not too easy to get into, and there were about 3-4 pull throughs for use by overnighters. They did have good water, 50 amp electric and free wifi, but other than that, not much else. We couldn't get but 3-4 channels on cable, but got 33 on our antenna so that was ok. I would only recommend it if you need a place to pull over for the night. We were visiting a relative who lived there, otherwise would not have gone there. The check-in people are nice and the man on the phone was very nice. - Ginny H

Old, needs updating. Showers 1960s era, wore flip flops! Sewer 1 foot in air under neighbor's huge RV....very inconvenient and weird, didn't drain well. Nice shade, nice neighbors and check-in. If you pay cash, bring exact change, they won't reimburse you with change! High price for services provided. I have Passport America and was charged $23.00 per night. Limited cell and no TV. - ljontour

While this is a "no frills" kind of campground, we enjoyed our month stay. While the majority of campers here are permanent, it was like it's own little community and everyone welcomed you with a wave. Marlene and Jimmy, the park managers were welcoming, helpful and just really nice folks. There are 3 washers and 3 dryers, a bit expensive at 1.75 each but they were good sized. We used the showers once (last day of stay), they were functional with good pressure and hot water, but while clean, they could definitely use some updating. Great little park for a couple of nights or a couple of weeks. - Outlaw Pilots

We arrived late and could barely understand the speech of the park kiosk attendant and the instructions on how to find our site (he was out of maps) so we got on the wrong road and had an ordeal turning our 43' bus around. Went back to the kiosk and no one was there. Some helpful campers gave us directions to find the campground and then we were shocked to see how narrow the pull-through actually was. We made it by backing in and managed to get hooked up. Since it was only overnight, we did not see anything more of the campground or the surrounding area except for some questionable characters around us. Wish we had stayed in the Walmart parking lot. I would not recommend this to anyone except as a last resort. - coloradoflyfisher

Of all the parks we stayed at on our 5 month trip through the south this is one of only two where I would probably not return.

The park was a typical county run park. a little run down and need of a little clean up but overall not bad.

Unfortunately it is in a really run down part of town. Venturing to and from after dark seemed like a really bad idea. The roads in and out were not in very good shape. - digger2280

Stayed here for one night only. Was good for the price. Very woody, sites not real close to others. Getting to the park was kind of through a residential area, but not too bad. Going out was through a more iffy part of town so I was glad it was morning and not midnight. Would probably stay again if needed overnight. - lpoebowen
