Creekside Camp near Hurricane Park!

Super nice host. I have already re-booked. Campsite is primitive, but spacious. No power or water at the site, but the host offered to let me use his water at the house if I needed it. Feels safe. The site is in a subdivision, and is a short drive away from food and grocery stores, as well as the University of Alabama. One thing to note is that the site is at a lower elevation than the road, so pack lightly to minimize the trips back up the hill. Awesome customer service!

It’s a beautiful spot, and the host pays a lot of attention to it. It’s what might be called semi-remote, because it’s completely tucked away and private, but at the same time, the residential neighborhood is just over the rise on both sides. The frogs and whatnot are quite exuberant at night—which is delightful—but you still hear the odd pickup with undersized mufflers or a few trains. So this is a great spot for someone who likes the reassurance that civilization is not too far away. We slept very well.

Host was very responsive and nice. However, at the campsite it is not easy to find a spot flat enough for a 4-6 person tent. There were a lot of mosquitoes, as the site is right next to what I would call a small bayou. It was not easy to walk down to the spot from where you park.

This location was awesome. Secluded enough to have privacy, but close enough for easy access. We had a great time, the set up was awesome. Definitely will be back!

We spent one night at Nathan’s property and couldn’t have been more happy with the experience! It was a great, secluded spot that was the perfect place to set up camp, and Nathan was very nice and helpful! As others have mentioned, you have to go down a steep-ish hill to arrive at the spot but Nathan has lined the path with solar lights to aid in any after dark navigating. The spot itself was well kept with a fire pit, hammocks, and a trashcan. Though by a shallow creek, the mosquitos were not a problem! If you’re in the area, definitely check out Nathan’s spot!
