Place isn't to bad, it was a former mobile home park. There are lots of seasonal folks and people working . Site size varies drastically. Bath house needs an up date. Full hook ups with cable, everyone one is nice , if you're expecting a RV resort feel it's probably not for you . We were only there two nights as the reason for the stay was to visit the USS Alabama, we would stay again.
Stayed overnight on our trip from Texas in January. This campground is derelict, the "nature trail" is completely overgrown. We were given site 19, which is not on the map. It took us a while in the dark to find that our spot was a muddy patch at the entrance. For $50/night, this place was a joke. I wouldn't attempt to use the common restroom unless I wore a biohazard suit.
Husband and I moved here from Kentucky about 5 months ago and we love it here. It’s peaceful and quiet and everyone here is so nice. Only downside is fall is we were told we would have cable but we’ve been here 5 months and the cable has never worked. We just purchased an antenna because no matter how many times we ask for it to be fixed it never has. We were Also under the impression we would be able to go back to the water and the dock in the back but come to find out it was no longer apart of the campground which honestly kinda blows. It’s definitely not a resort but for the price and convenience to downtown Mobile it’s pretty nice :)
Had a great stay. Booked online no issues, no hassles. The overnight spots are all pull thrus with electric, water and sewer. We booked online and learned the office is closed on the weekends so no check in needed. Shady on the acres is accurate because there are trees. The acorns hitting our roof at night sound like gunfire. But NO complaints. Love it and will be back.
We were happy to find Shady Acres. After a long day of driving, it was great to find this very quiet spot so convenient to the highway. There was lots of room to pull in under the shade of big beautiful trees.
