Only reason to stay here is it is easy on and off I65, and it is uncrowded, quiet, clean. Was shocked at the price increase to $30 in 2015. Used to have a sign claiming to be world's friendliest campground, but owner must have changed his mind. Used to be $20. We pull in there out of habit, but looking for another spot heading south next trip.

Level sites, all are pull through. No bath house or other amenities, but has full hook-ups. Good free wifi throughout the campground. Good over-the-air tv reception. Very close to I-65, however, road noise is minimal. Run by friendly folks. Water pressure is very high and they will offer you the use of their pressure reducer if you have none. Cash or check only.

Here it's all about location, location, location, thus the four stars. We pulled into this place after a long day driving. It is exactly as others state, good for an overnight stay, no amenities. It's easy on/off the highway. The sites are gravel and level. We are 40 feet long and towing a car and JUST fit into our pull through site. But it worked. Warning...the power pedestal is very low to the ground. We had to really bend the cord on our power conditioner to plug it in. The water is supplied by self draining hydrants, so there is no concern with the campground turning off the water when it gets cold out. The campground WiFi was 1 Mbps down. My Verizon hotspot had a full set of bars (I could see the tower). Over the air TV was good. This place is not fancy, but it gets the job done when you are tired of driving.

This is exactly what they say it is: a rv travel park. This is not a campground, nothing scenic about it what this is is a perfectly located, level, clean full hookup stop for weary RVers on I-65. I was born and raised in Athens AL and we stayed here for one night while visiting family. Perfect. Literally the only negative is there are quite a few roosters next door and they do rooster things...

Great place for an overnight stop. Long spaces which allow for dingy to remain hooked up. We were in a 43 foot motorhome.

Perfect park to stop overnight en route... Full hookup sites, but they don't even have a bathroom - so bring your own :D.

Sites definitely not level, I used leveling blocks and still nose down in the end.

But - perfect overnight. Great water, 50A service and dump at every site. Cash only, we used twice to and from elsewhere, and it's perfect for that. Literally the first driveway off the interstate - don't come barreling off at full speed! In the morning unhook and you are right back on :D

Northgate is a great place to stop for a quick overnight. It has easy access to the city of Athens (dining, shopping, just minutes from Wal-mart). Access is easy, located just off I65.

Despite the proximity to the highway and the road, the noise isn't bad at all. You'll hear more out of the owners chickens than you will traffic.

The place is very clean and site quality is great.

They offer no amenities - no showers, no laundry, nothing, but full-hookup sites. They make it very clear that they prefer self-contained RVs that are just passing through. In talking to the owners, they are not RV people, and they don't much care for RV people. They seem to think that the majority are Cousin Eddie, but they are OK with you if your rig looks nice and you don't make any moves to look like you might be staying long (I wouldn't put down your patio rug).

We've stayed here three times overall. In C6, C7, and C4. The sewer hookups are a bit high in C7, but that's really the only complaint about any of the sites. Overall, their sites are nice and level. Cell signal was good there on both At&T and Verizon.

Great location right off the highway for an overnight stay. All sites are drive through gravel.

The electricity was surging so dramatically that our surge protector (and several other campers) shut off the power to our 40’ motor home.
Management’s response was that we should not use a surge protector.

We demanded, and received, a full refund and left the campground.
