N MI to Navarre FL

Question

Mid February we will be heading from Northern Michigan to St. Rosa RV Park in Navarre FL. Google Maps suggest I65 to exit 93 at Evergreen AL. Then 31 to Brewton AL and then 41/87 to Navarre.

Any watch outs with this route or are there better choices for some reason ?

We don't drive long days when we are towing, so at least 2 nights on the road would be needed. This time of year we will most likely stay at least the first night in a hotel, but if the temps are high enough we might opt for setting up camp and de_winterizing for the second night on the road. Any campground recommendations would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance for any help.

I took that exact route to St. Rosa Rv Resort in August (from Ohio).  Nashville was a mess of construction, but aside from that it was a fairly easy drive.  Once you get off of 65 there are a few small towns with some low speed limits but it's not too bad. Make a stop in Clanton Alabama to Durbin Farm Market for some homemade ice cream and other fresh fruits and veggies.

Rangerman40thanks for the reply.  The stop in Clanton for the farmers market sounds like a great idea.  Not sure what we would find in February though.

I've driven the part of the route from Evergreen down to the coast a lot of times.  There are a few places going through Brewton that you need to pay attention to the road signs.  Other than that it's a nice trip.

There is a very nice campground near Atmore AL, just off I-65. Check out Magnolia Branch Wildlife Reserve. It is owned and run by the Poarch Band of the Creek Indian Nation. lizzie
