KOA Birmingham South
Just stopped here on our way north from the Florida panhandle.? Great stopover spot, extemely convenient to I-65.?

Luckily the scenery is good and there is plenty of wildlife to enjoy. The put in at Lovic bridge is tricky. Its a pretty steep grade and full of mud and sand. I ended up just getting in my canoe and slidding down the hill into the water. Thats a good way to flip so take a friend and you could rope your boat down much easier.
