stop over North of Birmingham

Question

Looking at my return trip from Fl. Going to make a stop somewhere north of Birmingham Al and south of the Tennessee border. Looking for campgrounds close to 65. Ive heard good reviews about Texas T, but they are a couple more hours than I would like to drive. I would also consider hotels that took dogs with RV parking pulling a car. Look on several sites, but was inquiring about places that people stopped at on the forum. Thank you.

North Gate RV Park Athens Alabama.  Right off 65 and easy off/on.  Large sites with no amenities.  Gravel lanes easy to navigate.  Rural quiet location.

Just south of Birmingham is Oak Mountain State Park. Campground Reviews give it a fair. Not super far off 65.Just a thought.

We have stayed at Cullman campground in Cullman, AL.  It was OK for a one night stopover.  The sites were plenty long enough, but narrow.

Thanks you. Was looking at both of those.

Look at River Country Campground outside of Gadsden, AL. They have some pull-thrus and they are large. We use it for a quick overnight when we are our way to Gulf Shores.

ON EDIT: Forget this - it's on I-59 instead of 65. It is a fabulous campground, though.
