We're about to spend our second night here and we really have no complaints.  This campground was a KOA at one time and it's now a Good Sam Park.

There's nothing fancy about it, but it's a good place to stop enroute.  There are some long term campers and many overnighters.

Our site, #27 was gravel and fairly level.  It fit Louis and the Jeep so we can't complain. The sites are not overly large, but fine for a night or two.  Since it poured down rain, we weren't interested in sitting outside anyway. There is not a designated dog park, but there were a couple of empty places to walk them.  

It's right off I-65, so very convenient.  There are many shopping areas within a six mile radius.  Not sure how safe I felt inside the Alabaster Wal-Mart.  They had three police officers standing guard inside, but I got what I needed.

My one dislike was the continuous run of trains, day and night.  Not sure if there is a big crossing here, but you could hear the horns, about every hour.  The trains woke me up a couple of times during the night, but it was not a big enough issue to stress over.

The staff was friendly and welcoming.  There are a few items for sale in the campstore.  They also have a list of nearby restaurants and stores.

​I would recommend this as a stopover.
