RV Rental Sleepy Holler Campground

Sleepy Holler RV Park is conveniently located a short drive from some of Alabama's most popular recreation areas. Head over to Bankhead National Forest, one of Alabama's largest national forests with more than 180,000 acres to explore. The Corinth Recreation Area within the forest is a popular spot, with a designated swimming beach, boat ramps, and an RV campground with full hookups. Eager to bag some big game? Pack your hunting gear in your RV rental and target wild boar or quail. If you'd rather watch the birds than hunt them, keep your binoculars handy for a chance to spot kingfishers, osprey, and several species of warbler.

If you're looking for a smaller area, escape into the wilderness at Oak Mountain State Park in Pelham. Covering just under 1,000 acres, it's the perfect place to spend an afternoon. The extensive multi-use trail network, with 25 miles of hiking paths and 50 miles of mountain biking routes, welcomes adventurers of all skill levels. Enjoy a serene stroll along the two-mile Green Trail, or test your mettle on the eight-mile Yellow Trail. Several paths lead to Peavine Falls, a 65-foot cascade that's well worth the trek. Other activities include fishing, swimming, golfing, wildlife watching, and camping.

Kick it up a notch at Talladega National Forest in Brent. This vast swath accounts for over half of Alabama's national forest footprint at over 300,000 acres. For some truly spectacular panoramas of the park, ascend over 2,400 feet to the summit of Cheaha Mountain. If you're passing through the area in a smaller campervan rental, take the 30-mile scenic route to the peak and soak up the beautiful views along the way. Prefer to explore on foot? The Pinhoti National Trail system boasts more than 100 miles of woodland trails winding through the national forest. Anglers are in for a treat, too, with the chance to reel in catfish, crappie, bream, and more from the forest's numerous lakes.

Hop in your RV rental and take the short 40-minute drive to Birmingham, where you can discover delicious dining, vibrant nightlife, and cultural attractions. A tour at Vulcan Park and Museum allows you to see a legendary landmark and explore some local history. Keep your camera handy to capture a photo of the imposing iron statue of Vulcan, the Roman god of fire, towering over the city from the summit of Red Mountain. Climb up to the observation tower and you'll be rewarded with jaw-dropping vistas of the cityscape. The surrounding 10-acre park is an excellent spot to get a dose of fresh air in the heart of the bustling city.

Got kids in your crew? Take a trip to the McWane Science Center. Dozens of hands-on exhibits let the little ones learn about everything from sea critters to dinosaurs. Watch awe-inspiring science demonstrations in the Rushton Theater, take a thrilling bike ride on the High Cycle suspended above the lobby, or catch an educational film in the IMAX Dome.

No adventure in Birmingham is complete without experiencing the Birmingham Zoo, home to around 1,000 animals of over 200 species. Every member of your family should find something interesting to see here, with daily activities and amazing exhibits like the Flamingo Lagoon, Southern Bayou, or Predators. Check the events program to see what family-friendly events are on during your visit.
