Demopolis AL to Gulf State Park

[Travlingman]

Going to be going from Foscue Creek COE in Demopolis Al. to Gulf State Park campground. Looks like my options are 43 from Demopolis to I-65 outside of Mobile to I-10 to 59 into Gulf Shores. The other option is 43 to 84 at Grove Hill, to 1 at Purdue Hill, then take 59 when 1 ends at it. The roads look pretty good from Google views, but they are from 2011. Have a 43' fifth wheel so don't want to end up on some narrow roads. Like the 2nd option as we don't really want to get into Mobile and the interstate.

US-43 to I-65/Saraland, I-65/Saraland to AL-59 just north of Bay Minette, AL-59 down to Gulf Shores. Nothing narrow or freaky. Al-59 from I-10 southwards can have a bit of traffic. I avoid Mobile.

Thanks. This looks like the winner.

If I was doing the trip I would take the second option. Maybe byways, but less hassle with Interstates etc.

Most of our travels across the country have been on the byways. Had a dually and a 40 ft fifth wheel for most of it. We like the small town America routes. Looking at googles the byway route looks good but it's all in with your comfortable with.
