Stone/grass sites. Both back in. Overlooks pond. Out in the country. Very quiet. If you go out after dark would suggest leaving a porch light on. We have installed three motion lights in the area. PLEASE plan your trip to arrive before dark. There are no street lights and this is a country road. It becomes very difficult to park large rigs in the dark. Suggested Local Attractions:Clarkson Covered Bridge about 8 miles Ave Maria Grotto about 12 miles.

House Rules
There is a trash can provided at the site. We try our best to eliminate pesty fire ants. But this is the south! We always canvass the area prior to guests arriving. Should you see an active ant hill, let us know if there is not a bag of mound remover next to the trash can available for use. If you have young children you must be with them at all times when outside. We have a pond on the property near the sites. Remember.... these are both back in sites.

Retired and settled, full-timed for 7 years Details: We are a retired couple who after full-timing for 7 years have settled here in north Alabama. We continued to RV after moving here for a couple of years but due to health reasons had to hang up the keys. But we love having visitors stay on our 2 RV sites. The wife is originally from southern New Jersey, Hubby is from Lake Charles area of Louisiana. We have 5 children between us. Wife's girls and families live in MD and PA. Hubby's son and family live nearby and one daughter in Louisiana and one near Houston. So most of our traveling is visiting with the families. Home Town: We live 10 miles outside of Cullman, AL. Cullman has any thing you would need. Two Walmart's and a Publix. Lots of restaurants like Applebees, Cracker Barrel, Dennys, Logans Steakhouse, 2 McDonalds, 2 Burger Kings, 2 Zaxbys, Popeyes, 2 KFC., Golden Corral, Jim n Nicks BBQ. A couple of Mexican Restaurants. Locally owned establishments. We are but a few miles from Clarkson Covered Bridge and the Ave Maria Grotto. The warehouse district of Cullman is an area of small boutique shops, restaurants, etc. There are several auto dealerships and RV repair facilities in Cullman or nearby Our RV sites sit on our 4 acres out in the country. We are less than 8 miles from I-65 X308. We are surrounded by woods and fields. We have one site that is 50 amp Full Hook Up. The other is electric and water. Should you require a 30 amp hookup, we will provide an adapter for your use while here. Skills or Expertise to Share: Having RVed from Rio Grande Valley of Texas to Alaska and Rhode Island to Yuma, AZ we have lots of traveling stories to share. During our RVing days we were members of NOMADS, a mission of the United Methodist Church. We would volunteer for two or three 3-week projects a year at camps, churches, retreat centers and community outreach. This included building, repairs, landscaping and whatever else the agency needed us to do.

Staying here in our RV was an absolute delight! The highlight of every day was being greeted by Biscuit, the friendly dog. The view of the pond from the front of the rig was relaxing and provided hours of enjoyment for my duck watching dogs. The site was convenient, level, and very comfortable, and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
