Convenient stop for the night or a base camp for a few days to see the area for RV’s or Tent campers - 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 , Citizens Marksmanship Park, Oxford ballgames or other area Activities - I reserve two RV sites and two tent sites thru hipcamp and rent the other 14 RV sites usually on a monthly basis - these hipcamp tent 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. The RV sites are in a more open area near the highway.

High speed, Nascar style outdoor adventure is so abundant at Talladega National Forest, we’re pretty sure Ricky Bobby spends his days here. Feel the wind in your hair on the Kentuck OHV or Sylaward Mountain Bike Trails. If you’re wanting more solitude, try hiking the challenging Odum Point where dwarf trees dot the landscape. Stunning laurels and huckleberry bushes will greet trail riders in the spring, and camping is as perfect as it gets with fall foliage greeting you in the autumn. Waterfalls, rugged ridgetops, and shady hollers ensure there’s no need to get hopped up on mountain dew; Talladega will have you hopped on adventure before you can say “shake and bake”!

Wonderful rest stop. Very peaceful with minimal bugs. The site was nicely laid out, complete with fire wood, string lights and a table. I didn't actually meet the host but he was very quick to respond via phone to a minor problem( I got lost) The gps coordinates will take you right there. Would definitely recommend and stay again when I'm out that way!

Very friendly, rustic and quaint. We slet in the cabin and it felt like sleeping in a treehouse. Trails were not that hard of a hike. The river was worth the small trek! Showers were nice and the composting toliet was surprisingly very clean. Clothing optional was easier than we thought and we didn't want to leave. Pro tip: bring a portable battery operated fan during the summer months.
