Review Detail

Our GPS took us right to the gate and the campground was easy to find -- directions were spot on! It is not far off of the Interstate which was great for us as we were passing through on a longer trip. This is a small campground with most sites occupied by base employees. It is very quiet during the day since so many occupants are working on site. The host couple are very friendly, nice folks. We were greeted upon arrival and supplied with information about our hookups, local map and even information about the night's entertainment: Bingo and (optional) dinner at the rec building. Both cable and wifi worked great, and if you need help with hookups, Steve is very helpful. We had some issues with our vehicle and he helped us check out the problem and even gave us a boost and a mechanic nearby if we needed. The sites were full hookup, paved, and perfectly maintained; the restrooms and laundry room -- while basic accommodations -- were spotless with everything in working order. Laundry was $1.50 wash and $1.00 dry (and we removed our dried clothes, including jeans, before the cycle was even over). There was a nice playground near the campground. There is also a small pavilion next to the laundry building. For the price, this campground is a great value. The base itself has a small shopette and Anniston is nearby, as is Oxford which has about everything you could need -- including Sams Club, Walmart and the usual chain stores and restaurants. The only drawback for some may be that there is a train track beside the campground, but we were not bothered by it and my husband is a light sleeper. All in all, this was a great place to stay if you are passing through, visiting family in the Anniston area, or even close enough to go to the Talladega race!
