The Woods RV Park, again. Decent for overnight. Don't expect any trees (seriously). 🙂

We stayed at Rickwood Caverns for one night. They have a gate that closes in the evening. Call ahead if you plan on getting there after dark. You may need to get the code.

If you want a nice space a little off the road, then Gunter Hill COE in Montgomery is very nice. The have full hook ups and big sites in one of the loops. It is pretty easy drive from/to I-65.

I-65 Exit 168
Passport America rate was $15 (iirc). No reservations needed. In fact, you won't get Passport rate if you make a reservation.
All spaces are pull through.
Easy walk to several fast food places.
Kangaroo across the street is easy to get in for gas.
We have stayed for an overnight here half a dozen times. US 331 is at the same exit and this location gives us a 3 hour drive on to Topsail the next day.

I agree...very convenient if all you want is a quick meal and a place to sleep.

I agree with Hiking Hunter. In Birmingham (Pelham is the surburb), try Oak Mountain State Park, it is very nice. In Montgomery, the new side in Gunter Hill is excellent. It is a Corps of Engineers park on the Alabama River. Both parks have full hook up.

Birmingham South Campground, exit 242 in Pelham, easy off/on.

Try Hoover RV park. Just south of Birmingham. All pull thrus just off of 459. At exit 10

Camping World at Calera AL. just south of Birmingham has several RV sites for overnighters. Right at the interstate.

From I-65 South, take Exit 231 onto US-31N. Turn left onto Co Rd. 22 and then right onto George Roy Parkway

From I-65 North, take Exit 234. Turn left onto Co Rd. 87 and then left onto George Roy Parkway.

cracker barrels are great.

Exit 289 or 284 (either will work) - Rickwood Caverns State Park. Follow the brown signs to the campground. About 17 miles North of Birmingham. Small campground is about 2 miles off the interstate, fine for a one-nighter. Also if you make it through BHam, there is Oak Mountain State Park South of town, but further off the interstate and more crowded. Also some sites are very poor in the old loop.

There are no private campgrounds in Birmingham that I would recommend.

In MOntgomery area - Gunter Hill COE park - pretty far off the interstate, but an excellent campground - get in the new loop. I would estimate 15-18 miles off the interstate.
