Summer kickoff - Memorial weekend at Alabama State Parks

You are invited to "Bring a Friend" to one of Alabama's 22 state parks. Doing so will save you money on lodging the next time each of you visit. From April 1 through July 31, 2015, when you bring a new customer to a state park and each of you rent a campsite or stay in another overnight facility within the park, you will each receive a $25 voucher to use during a future visit. 

Hey Dad, can we go camping for Memorial Day? 
If that answer is yes, then choose an Alabama State Park campground as your destination. Most Alabama State Parks host modern campsites along with primitive camping. Modern bathhouses and spacious camping pads - many right on the water - make camping in an Alabama State Park comfortable and fun.   

Why just "go to the park" when you can stay at the park? Alabama State Parks offer comfortable lodging options for every style and budget. Whether it's cabins, cottages, chalets or lodge rooms the Alabama State Parks provide you and your family with top-quality facilities including all the amenities you expect with unmatched hospitality.

Fishing at an Alabama State Park offers something for both the freshwater and saltwater angler. Our lakes, rivers and streams are home to a variety of species. At our Gulf State Park, you will find excitement in landing the big one from the pier or right from the beach. For something a little different check out the fly fishing at DeSoto State Park.

Our Earl Stone designed golf courses are scenic, challenging and affordable. The next time you hit the links give the Alabama State Parks golf courses a try. Our new online booking tool makes it easy to book and play.   

Put on your grass skirts, Hawaiian shirts and join us for an authentic Beach Luau at Gulf State Park on May 23rd. Hula dancers, fire dancers, tiki bars and a buffet make this event fun for all. Tickets start at $55 and can be purchased online at Ticketleap.com. Keyword: Gulf State Park
