Bohamia is beautiful! The camp sites were clean and spread out nicely. We loved taking the conoe & paddle boat out on the pond.

Weekend Trip to Parksland Retreat
Me and my partner had a fantastic time at Parksland retreat, I really can’t say enough good things about our getaway.
Our yurt was spacious and clean, the bed comfortable, and our campsite was secluded.

A weekend at Parksland is heavenly. Every time we’re there, we’re happy. We’d move in, if we could.

My friend and I spent 2 nights tent/car camping at the pond area. I’ve been camping since I was a kid and she’s never been camping, but Bohamia was perfect for both of us. Leigh was wonderful, the camp sites were well maintained, quiet, and spread out enough to be more private than a lot of campgrounds. There’s only a Porta-potty in the pond area, but it was clean. The bathhouse is a short drive and very nice. The virtual camp store was so convenient for ordering wood for the fire and had a lot of other necessities. Highly recommend bringing hiking boots with good grip and hiking to the overlook/waterfall. The hiking trails are all very well maintained but not always well marked. However, Bohamia welcomes you to explore their unmarked trails as well, and it would likely be very hard to get truly lost on the property. My pit-mix comes on nearly every camping trip with me and I’m always a little weary of how she will be viewed, but she didn’t get so much as a sideways glance at Bohamia. I felt comfortable having her on a long tie-out or a zip-line and, because the sites were so spread out, there was no worry of her bothering anyone else. Before we even packed up, my friend was convincing the rest of our friend group to move our upcoming camping trip to Bohamia, so we will definitely be coming back.

Very big and pretty piece of property. The tent camping area is in a field with a pond and surrounded by woods. Two others were camped also but it was spread out enough that it felt comfortable and quiet. Great trails on property. Pretty in the fall. Host was very nice.

Very welcoming host and atmosphere within a beautiful natural setting.
Psst- P3 isn't really that far, and the hill isn't really that bad.

Private, quiet, beautiful…….

Bohamia is such a magical place!!! The property is so amazing and well taken care of. Bath house is like no other and always immaculate. So much to do on the land, you don’t even need to leave. From paddle boat/ canoe on the pond, fishing, swimming, hiking, and boulder hopping on the beautiful river that runs through the property, to relaxation at its best! This was our 2nd year coming here and definitely will be our yearly place to go to recharge and find our peace! The owner is exceptionally kind and always so welcoming!!! We love her and the land she shares with others, it’s all so perfect!!

Weekend Trip to Parksland Retreat
We had an amazing time camping here! It was a wonderful and new experience for both of us — being without clothes truly helped us connect with nature in a beautiful way. Dustin was so kind and welcoming the entire time, and everyone there made us feel like part of a big family. We will definitely be coming back!

I can’t say enough positive things about the experience of staying on Dustin‘s land. The campsite we stayed in was isolated enough to make you feel like you were by yourself. The common facilities that Dustin shared with his guests made the trip really worthwhile. He has a 2 mile hiking trail on the property that’ll provide you with solitude and a good exercise opportunity. The creek offered a good cold plunge for after the hike. Dustin is a very gracious host. I can’t wait to return.

Parksland Retreat was so great again. The hot tub was amazingly done and nice for my first time. It was a great start to the weekend to get to know everyone and set the vibes for the rest of the time. And I cannot stress how great the sauna is. It eased my stressed muscles from the days trail hiking and swimming. If you're hesitating to go because its clothing optional, dont. It's so welcoming and the friendliest campsite in Alabama. You'll only regret why you didn't go sooner.
Make sure not to bring to many items if you're camping at the two creekside locations. I learned the hard way and I don't want you to end up like me.
Protip: keep your cooler at your car and have a secondary cooler to take down to your campsite.

This was the perfect trip to the most beautiful well kept space! Dustin was very friendly and made us feel very welcome. I definitely would like to come back. This is a beautiful property with beautiful views, swimming and friendly people.
When camping a P2 pack as light as possible. It is a steep and far trip if you are having a lot of heavy things.
We packed food, equipment for 9 people and a glamping tent. Wouldn’t do that again! We are very out of shape too though!
Out of all the campsites we saw I did like ours the best. It was close to potable water and a compost toilet. We enjoyed being further away from the other campsites and had privacy.

Had a great time hanging out with Dusty and some of the other campers. He has created such a relaxing place that makes everyone feel at ease. Will definitely be back when I can stay longer. Thanks!

We came on our motorcycles for the Vintage Festival at Barbers in Birmingham. Every year we camp somewhere different, but that may change now. This place is wide open, quiet, and great for tents. Trees for shade, pond, and firewood via Uber! (Not really, but the staff brings it to you after order online). Now the helpful input….how about shelves in the shower. If you are on a bike, the road is steep and rocky with gravel in few places, turn off your ABS. We will decently be back next year!

Great spot with full hookups. As a solo female traveling with dogs I felt safe. Well located, Walmart is close by and Birmingham is about 25 miles away. The hosts were very helpful and accommodating. Great communication from both of them. Would definitely stay again if back in the area.
