This is right off the interstate.
Great cave.

Also a good flea market at this exit.

Tannehill Historic State Park,
on I 20/59 at mile 100, between
Tuscaloosa and B'ham. About
300 sites, streams, museum,
heavily wooded, restaurant.
FINE place. Avoid 3rd weekend
each month because of the
crowd.

Also, if you are thinking Tannehill SP forget October. The spooks fill the park early.

Actually Tannehill will be packed in October. They do Halloween all month long and families come and park for the whole time. There are so many campers that they overflow into the primitive sites. Plus, as mentioned above, the third weekend is Trade Days and they are usually covered up with day visitors coming to shop.

If Natchez is a stop for you Riverview RV Park is the nicest in the area and just across the bridge in Vidalia, LA from Natchez. Nice park and walkway along the Mississippi River.

Natchez has many, many antebellum homes to tour and well worth the time to spend touring a few. The Carriage House restaurant located at the Stanton Hall mansion is excellent. It is only open for lunch. Stanton Hall, Melrose, Rosalie, and Longwood homes are among the best.

If you are looking for a cg in between check out Fall Creek Falls state park.
This is a wonderful cg.
Also right up the road is Cumberland Caverns

It is right below Cookville TN. on the map.

From there you could head to The Lost Sea and on to the Smokies.

About 3 hours from Fall creek falls.


Have fun

Last year we did the Natchez Trace northbound. Natchez State Park outside Natchez was a good base for that area. There are a number of CG's along the Trace, some of which are free. You can find some notes and pictures of the CG's we visited from Natchez on up into TN and then into east TN on our web site below. Have a great trip.
