My dog, Homer, is our very friendly welcoming ambassador who will enthusiastically great you upon your arrival. I put him up in his kennel each evening around dusk, then lock him in his shed until morning which keeps him from backing during the night.
We also host an AirBnB, so other guests may be here as well.

Convenient stop for the night or a few days for RV’s or Tent campers and a good place to get a hot shower - only a easy mile a half from I-20 exit 173 ( Eastaboga - Talladega Superspeedway Exit ) also a good base camp to see Cheaha State Park - bike at Coldwater Mountain- see the Talladega Superspeedway , Combat Park Flea Market , Oxford ballgames or other area Activities - I reserve one RV site and two tent sites for hipcamp and rent the other five RV sites at the top of hill on a monthly basis - these hipcamp sites are wooded, shady with woods between the other sites to give some privacy while still not far from the unique showers made from the old chicken house feed bins -these showers are very functional and I have been complimented that they are the best showers on the east coast

Welcome to CAMP 222, a private campground nestled on approximately 1 acre of land adjacent to Lewis Smith Lake in Cullman, AL.
Experience the tranquility of lake life as you enjoy boating adventures accessed via our private boat ramp. Relax and bask in the sun on our floating sun deck, or unwind in the shade with a nap in one of our hammocks. As night falls, gather around our fire pit to share stories without the distractions of nearby campers.
Our campground offers camper hook-ups for water and electricity, although sewer facilities are not available. From April - November a portable toilet is on site. During the months of December - March, guests must either have a camper with a restroom or bring their own camp toilets.
Conveniently situated just off Cullman County Road 222, our campsite is within a quarter mile of two gas stations, two independently owned stores offering short-order food options, and a Dollar General. While there may be some road noise from County Road 222, especially during daytime hours, it typically tapers off in the evening and nighttime.
Enjoy stunning views of the 4th of July fireworks from Smith Lake Park, as our property provides a prime vantage point.
Lewis Smith Lake, managed by Alabama Power, spans 21,000 acres and is the deepest lake in Alabama at 264 ft. The water level varies throughout the year, usually reaching full-pool from April to July before gradually decreasing for the autumn and winter seasons. Please note the rocky shore near the sun deck, which is why jumping or diving from the sun deck is prohibited.
The nearby City of Cullman, located approximately 10 miles away, offers abundant shopping, dining, and entertainment options. Additionally, the city hosts numerous festivals throughout the year, including the Rock The South Music Festival.

We really enjoyed our stay. This place was so quiet we wondered if we had lost our hearing at times! Everything was nicely maintained and convenient. Tent campers may wish to bring a water filter as the water tastes a little funky. Such a lovely piece of property- hiked the trail several times. This was our first visit but not our last!

Bates Farm was a great place to stay. I booked a site later in the afternoon and I had a response from Mary confirming the booking almost immediately. The hosts were super polite and very helpful. Bathrooms and shower were very clean and worked amazing. The archery range looked like it would be fun and I will have to return with my bow next time!

Great place to camp. We will be back. This property is dedicated exclusively to camping both tent and RV. You are not staying at someone's house like other HipCamps. The owners were very nice and were on grounds conducting improvements. When messaged directly through the App, I received prompt responses. This property is close to the Talladega National Forest and loads of jeeping trails we enjoyed. Relaxing in the peaceful beauty in camp was nice also.

I stumbled across Hidden Branch during a Hoogke search and I am so glad that I did! I had never heard of or used Hicamp before, but it made reserving a site super simple. This place is truly a hidden gem. The property is so peaceful and clean and offers you an opportunity to relax and disconnect from the hustle and bustle of life. The site itself was great. Plenty of space and a great view of the pond down below. The hiking trail offered great views and lots of wildlife. The campground offers a shower and bathroom as well as a community camp kitchen with everything you need to create a delicious meal. Wi-fi is also available if needed. I only stayed one night, but definitely look forward to coming back in the future! Thanks Caleb for taking care of the property and allowing folks to use it to truly relax and unwind!

Zed and Strider were amazing hosts! Our campsite was beautiful and the hiking trails on property were fun to explore. Zed and Strider asked us many times if there was anything they could do to make our stay better. They were very accommodating and attentive. We would definitely recommend dark hollow and if we are ever passing through Alabama again, this will be where we camp!

Camping at Pondview Acres was an amazing experience. The property is peaceful, well-kept, and perfect for anyone wanting to unplug and enjoy nature. The pond views are beautiful, and the campsite felt safe, quiet, and spacious—great for tent camping.
Even though it was pretty cold at night, the overall experience was still a solid 10 out of 10. It was calm, relaxing, and exactly what I needed. If you’re looking for a low-stress, scenic camping spot in the Brundidge area, I highly recommend Pondview Acres. I would absolutely camp here again.

We loved being so far away from town! The peace and quiet was what we needed for the holidays! Caleb is super easy to chat with and he replies almost instantly. Definitely backwoods and not for everyone but perfect for us! Pit toilet amd away from cell phone service. He does have wifi which is nice too! The pond was great to fish. We enjoyed many campfires under the stars. Thanks for the great stay! I would highly recommend if you need to get away from the world and get in touch with nature!
