Five of the RV parks listed here are Good Sam Parks: Swan Creek Community, Parnell Creek RV Park, Monte Sano State Park, Sharon Johnston Park Campground, and the US Space and Rocket Center RV Park.
RV rates for the parks listed varied greatly. The best bargain was probably the US Space and Rocket Center RV Park located at the Center. At $18 to $20 per night, they were the lowest priced park. All the parks were reasonably priced with the most expensive charging $36.75 per night.
RVing is a fun and inexpensive way to travel, but consumers who don’t own RVs don’t need to miss out on the benefits. It is possible to rent an RV nearby for your use in the area. We have a large assortment of RVs available for rent in the Huntsville area.
The Swan Creek Community is set up for long-term rentals, as is the Cowford Landing RV Park. Others accept a limited number of long term rentals. Many have limits on your stay.
Only you can decide which RV park is best for you. We have chosen these ten for their proximity to the Space Center and the amenities offered. Some have a more rural setting for those who simply want to enjoy nature, while others offer swimming pools, playgrounds, game rooms, mini-golf, and other attractions. Choose the park that offers the most for all of your family members.
Families with young children would probably enjoy the playgrounds and family friendly atmospheres at Sharon Johnston RV Park and at the Parnell Creek RV Park.
All of the RV parks listed here are family and pet friendly, but it pays to call ahead and ask about any specific concerns you might have. The people are friendly and willing to help.
