Sunday, September 28 – We moved on down the road today from Augusta. GA, to Montgomery, AL. We are staying at The Woods RV Park…don't let the name fool you...no woods. We have stayed here several times in the past when traveling from Augusta to the Gulf. This is a Passport America park with gravel streets and sites. There is a small strip of grass between each site. Luckily, the park is not very busy, so the RV's are widely spaced.

If you are in the area and plan on stopping here, be advised NOT to follow your dang GPS. Ours and according to the front desk, MOST GPS, will route you the long way from I-75, 13 miles of stop and go traffic. It is best to exit off I-65 which is only .5 miles down the road. If you do that it is a very convenient location.
We are only in Montgomery for an overnight stay and some very quick sightseeing on Monday. We’ll tell you about our Monday morning sightseeing in our next post.
So, after our tour of Montgomery, AL, we hooked up the 5th wheel and headed to Bay St. Louis, MS. We are staying at a familiar place, the Silver Slipper Casino campground. It is located across a small street, about 100 feet from the Gulf. The beach is almost deserted. Our own private beach! The casino is about a half-mile down the street.
The campground has concrete pads with a patio and picnic table. The street is also concrete and there is a small strip of grass between the sites. There are two rows of sites with the front row costing an extra $5. We’ve always stayed in site #24, an end of the row with an unobstructed view of the Gulf.

Thanks for stopping by. Hope to see y’all back real soon. Have a great day!
That sure is a beautiful view of the Gulf from your site. Can't believe how empty those RV Parks are. I suppose they'll start filling up for the winter months soon.
ReplyDeleteThat is a nice area there on the Gulf, have been there a few times, but not at that campground. We have membership campgrounds in Pass Christian and Biloxi much more affordable.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the area.
I like when the people in the park offices are smart enough to space out the arriving units especially when they aren't crowded. We were at a park a few months ago that wasn't crowded but they insisted in assigning unit one next to the other.
ReplyDeleteNice parking in the casino! And to get that close to the beach and have a view...good deal! Now I hope the sun shines for you while you are there:) I like that empty beach header...sweet!
That's one of the prettiest beaches I've ever been to.
ReplyDeleteI'm hoping that the parks are still kind of empty when we decide to head west next month sometime.
ReplyDeletevery lovely. . .any water view is a great one. . .but that one looks extra special. . .enjoy!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful view of the Gulf!! Many of those Passport America parks leave a lot to be desired in the way of views but are convenient and not so pricey!! Enjoy!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful views of the Gulf and it looks like the weather is cooperating for you as well.
ReplyDeleteBe Safe and Enjoy!
It's about time.
Love the large sites and the near empty ones too. Too bad we don't get them as often as we'd like though.
ReplyDeleteYea, I would say that campground is misnamed for sure.
ReplyDeleteAdded that park to our list
ReplyDeleteMui doesn't have pleasant memories of our time just down the road at Buccaneer State Park ... he got eaten alive by sand flies last spring. We almost moved to the casino campground to see if we could escape the pests, but everyone there was complaining, too.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to hearing more about this part of the country, an area we have yet to explore.
