- Gunter Hill Campground Montgomery Alabama - Full Time RV: Our new favorite RV park is in Montgomery, Alabama. It is Gunter Hill Campground which is an Army Corps of Engineers Campground and is amazing! If you are looking for the perfect campground Gunter Hill is where you should go! Check out the video for drone footage of the campground as well as a little trip to check out Montgomery's history. This is by far the best RV park we have stayed at so far. You will also think it is the best RV park when you choose to stay here!

Many years ago I was stationed at Gunter Air Force Base. Then it was a base for medics. I learned to be an X-Ray Tech and medic and then I went to Andrews. Vietnam era. Thank you for your service. My brother is a Vietnam Navy vet (3 tours). My dad was a WWII Navy corpsman.
Love what you said about Ms. Parks and that don't want history to repeat itself and learning from mistakes.
What an incredible drive into that place. Man the woods were beautiful. Thanks for taking us along on your travels today. Some of us may never make it on the road so we really appreciate what y’all do. Cheers!!!
It is such a beautiful park! We were so lucky to find it.
We love our senior pass for the parks. We hope to get even more use, when we start RVing. Glad your enjoying yourselves. As always take care and be safe.
They are the golden ticket!!
Thanks for sharing! And too funny...took a break from purging to watch this! We are working towards full-timing! Hope to see you on the road soon!
That is funny!! Phil much have been watching you!
We loved Gunter Hill too!
We should have stayed for the full 2 weeks at this one!
No doubt one of our favorites as well
YES. The Catoma Loop is amazing. The way the sites are laid out are the best we have ever seen. Easy to back into & deep, WOW. 👍👍
We agree completely!
What is a good site with the best water views? We'll be traveling there in end of January 2021
My husband and I are at Gunter Hill right now! And you are right, it is amazing. We live south of Birmingham so it is only an hour or so away but was perfect for our first outing in our 21' Rockford travel trailer. Beautiful grounds, lots of trees, and on the Alabama River. We went into Montgomery last night for a Marty Stuart concert. This was so much more fun (and lots cheaper) than staying at a hotel like we have done before for shows at the Montgomery Performing Arts Center . I love your videos and look forward to seeing where the road takes you next.
So glad you love it too!
I always love the music you choose and enjoy seeing nice people enjoying life 👍
Thanks so much! Music takes me forever to choose!
Forgot to add we met you in 2019 Hershey RV show when we were searching for our RV
November 2021 we became Full-Time RVers
Thanks for the inspiration 😄
Wow - that’s an amazing campground ! Thanks for sharing 👍😀.
Hey friend! You guys would love it and fit with no problems.
Love those COE campgrounds. Several great ones here in Tennessee.
We have stayed at a couple near Nashville. Loved them.
I also want to thank you Mike for all of the great videos that you do. I am a first timer me and my wife just
bought our first RV 2 weeks ago and been trying to get everything ready. Wow what a job.
You have taught us so much about RVing and I thing we are ready to hit the road on our first trip.
I hope we run into you guys somewhere on the road one day it would be an honor to meet you.
We are from NW. GA. Hope to see ya one day Be Safe Be Blessed :)
I told you this was our favorite place! We have been there 3 times now and go out of our way to find a reason to pass by and stay again. Lots of history in the area including Selma as well as Montgomery. I love the videos, keep them coming.
Yes you did and I can totally see why! Hopefully, when the word gets out we can still get reservations! lol We cant wait to get back and check out more of the local history.
What are some good waterfront sites you would recommend there?
Thanks for the quick video from our home state. We will definitely put that campground on our list. Wife and I love your videos!
It was pretty awesome!
We saw this video 4 years ago and have been to Gunter Hill 3 times and will be there again at the end of our 4 month trip from Florida to California and Glacier NP and back. It is the best! Thank you ! Richard and Virginia. . YoloRvAdventure on UA-cam!
In my career, I had the honor of meeting Rosa Parks twice. My take away from those experiences:
Ms. Parks was a very humble and soft spoken woman. She held the sweetness of spirit within her soul. I did not see someone affected by notoriety or act in such a way. She was a quiet, humble soul. This how I remember her.
Thank you so much for sharing that with me. It makes me love her all the more!!
Thank you so much. We cant wait to go there!
You wont be disappointed.
Thanks for the reminder. Love your humor!
Phil is a total dork! lol
LOL.....Phil looking into our lives and seeing that we need to purge!!!! Still chuckling!!! ........ Thanks ..... Enjoy your channel a lot...... You give the gift of laughter and we can all use more of that!!! BLESSINGS to you both!! :-)
Thanks so much for hanging out with us!
Looks like a fantastic place.
It really is awesome.
All I can say is you two are crazy!!!
(In a good way😊) I hope that one day I can just walk up to you two and say “Hey Stacey and Phil was new” I’ll have to put that on my bucket list😄😄
Love you guys....be safe!!!!
That would be so much fun!
I've been a lifetime purger, hero. My mom/family used to hate when I was a kid.
Y'all just motivated my wanderlust and the only thing stopping me is me. I best get started or I'll be sitting here next year missing out on what I want to do. PEACE
Awesome! Maybe we will see you out there.
I appreciate how you two embrace the history of our country. The good, bad, scary, pretty & ugly. Awesome COE park.
Safe travels...
I love their videos, but I'm worried about the lump on Stacy's lump on her throat. She needs to have that checked out by a doctor!
@@marilynortega5649, Stacey mentioned in the beginning of one of their recent videos that she did have it checked out and all is well.
I love history and I think it is important for our future! We must never repeat our ugly and teaching others about it is the only way that will happen. People need to FEEL it and let it become a part of their soul. I'll never be a preacher on our platform but I am hoping to encourage people to go see those places that might change their perspective of others.
That was fun...thanks!
Thank you!
Thank you so much for the recommendation. I evacuated Florida and came to Maxwell AFB but they could only reserve my slot until Sunday. With a Hurricane, I was looking for another spot and found you guys. I appreciate it! I did see the Rosa Parks Museum driving in. Thumbs up!
Glad you found a safe place to go during the evacuation period. Hopefully the storm isn't to menacing on your Florida spot.
You are a beautiful couple, funny and very informative. Thanks for the Corp of Engineers tip.....
We were at that campground , same space 2 years ago . Too funny noticed right at the beginning of your video. So nice to see your photos, we also went to the Rosa parks museum it was done so well, it brought us to tears. Safe travels!
That is crazy cool!! We hope to get back there and explore a bit more.
Another great video! Thank you. This CG is on our list now.
Thanks!
oh wow, beautiful place!
It really is!
we're purging as fast as we can. I'll see you on the road SOON!....
We are about halfway through the funnel on the purge thing. Nice campground; thanks for the tip. Thanks to US for sharing the Annual pass with us Canadian snowbirds; wish we could qualify for senior or military.
Awesome!! Keep going! The purge is the hardest part.
thank you for great vlog... just became planet fitness member and here we come Rosa Parks
Sweet! Enjoy! You wont be disappointed!
We LOVE COE parks, use them as much as possible. There are 3 in East tx on Lake of the Pines that are wonderful. Lots of history in the area 1 hr west of Shreveport, la. Lots more in Texas also most close to historical areas. This is a pines forest area so really beautiful.
Awesome! Thanks for sharing.
You are right....I haven't started purging yet but I have started painting which will lead to purging.
It is a step to your goal!
"I noticed you haven't started purging yet". Hahahahaha!!! Oh dear how could you see??? I love it. It's on my list and our first garage sale is June 1.
June 1st is just around the corner! I guess you have started because garage sales are a lot of work! Good luck
Definitely gonna subscribe. Montgomery is my hometown and I don't think I have ever been there. Great practical information. Thanks for sharing and hope you guys continue to travel, have fun, be safe and inspire others!
Awesome! Thank you!
I love rv life has a great video on the falls
Sweet. thanks
Great drone footage 👍. Thank you both for your service. SF
Thanks!
Great video! Thanks for the tip on Gunter Hill COE campground. Somehow, I had missed that one. We love COE campground. If you are headed NE, stop into Desoto SP in Ft Payne, AL. It's on top of the mountain and one of our favorite stops. FHU, cable, and WiFi. Have a great trip to Va Beach.
Thanks for sharing!!
My bestie Army buddy and I toured the Maggie Walker museum today in Richmond VA. Sooo cool!
That sounds cool!!
After watching your review on Gunterhill we decided to give it a try!
Hope you enjoy it!
Awesome info !!! Thank you!
Thanks for popping over!
You know it! ❤️👏🏻
Excellent music and scenery. You're getting better at editing and I like the format. Good Job.
Thanks so much! I am really working on it!
You guys crack me up! We're started purging and i've already needed 3 things I've purged! Much more to go, wish us luck!
I hate when I do that! I do tend to over purge!
@@todayissomeday ya I ended up with no dress pants for Easter 🤦♀️ #goodtimes
Thanks for the reminder about needing to purge!!!LOL! Hope to be on the road soon!!!
You are so welcome
So funny!!! We just watched this video and it was like you were talking directly to us about purging! We took a break from moving into our fifth wheel to watch this! Video! We are moving out of our Sticks and bricks this weekend and are a month away from pulling out!! We are so excited and exhausted. Sure do enjoy your videos and really look forward to meeting you soon.
That is awesome! You guys are so close! I am excited for you. You are going to love it.
You guys are a hoot!!!! Love your videos! Happy Easter!!
Thanks Dino! Happy Easter to you as well! Blessings to you and your family!
Great video
Our favorite is Corp parks as well, Come to Arkansas we have lots of great Corp parks. Have to add this one to bucket list. Spent quality time at Maxwell AFB for Leadership schools and plan to visit the base so that park will work great. Thanks for sharing. Bloopers are so Awesome! Safe travels.
Arkansas is on our list.....we will eventually make it there!
Phil, you are too funny, cracked me up!
I started laughing because I am purging right now ... too funny ... house went on the market today... hope to see you on the road in the next 6 months ... love your channel!
Sweet! Good luck with the sale. Fingers crossed for a quick one.
Love the new intro!!
We do try to get the drone up when we can but most places wont allow it. Hopefully, we can get more soon!
Great video! Already purging!
Enjoy the purge!!
I just found you guys. Love the info you present and how you present it. New subscriber!
Welcome aboard!
Ha!! That purging video has to go into a greatest hits montage in the future! Fantastic. :D
Hahaha What a great idea!
I didn't know anyone could camp at COE campgrounds. I'll have to include them in my research of areas we go to. Good video. ~Lucy
I am so glad that now you know!! They are amazing.
LOL Bustled! We are going full-time in about a year and still have a lot of purging to do. Excellent video by the way.
Thanks! Purging takes forever. I would start today and go slow. Just keep repeating spaces until you are done. I made a video on purging if you look in our early videos.
Great video. Like to see the things you are doing.
Thanks!
Yes we have a golden ticket!!!
Sweet!
I’m purging! Joshua Becker’s the minimalist Home ... I’m on it!
Sweet! It is worth it!
Based totally on your video, we decided to pack up the RV and try Gunter Hill. As I type this we are parked in lot 14. The park is everything you stated plus more. The Rangers at check-in told us this place isn’t normally crowded.
Thank you for the recommendation.
Awesome!! Enjoy your time there ....we sure did!
You guys are too cute lol (sorry Phil). I love watching your channel :). We are a good 5 years out from full timing...but you both make learning very fun and I love your insight and honesty! Please keep the videos coming and safe, happy travels to you!
Thanks Kelly. Those 5 years will be here before you know it. You are doing it right by researching ahead of time.
Sweet looking 👍
It is amazing. You should check this one out.
We literally just booked our spot at Gunter Hill for October. Once we finished, we sat back and noticed you had a new video out so decided to watch it. So weird it was about Gunter Hill Campground. haha
Awesome! You are gonna love it.
You are right we have a lot more purging to do...the camper comes in 1 month! House goes on the market Monday!
Yikes!! The pressure is on!
Nice video. You guys are doing good. Keep it up! 🤠👍
Thanks
Also my favorite COE campground especially at half price. Use it on my route back and forth from up north to Florida. I was there when you were.
It is amazing!
Cool info!
Thanks
Heyyyyyyyy
We watched this video last week
We said let’s try it
We love it
When we watched the video again today we saw the drone footage and we were like
Wait a minute we think we got the same site #33😄
Glad you found it! Also about the pass if your 62 you can get the pass for $80 and get the same discount of half off. $10 a night! Also if your ever in the area of Gadsden Alabama visit Naccalula falls there r videos on utube check it out!
Yes!
Very funny Phil. Yes we do have a lot of purging to do. LOL.
Well get to work! lol
We're working on it! So much to do but it feels good.
Thanks for all the great info. I’ve are in the process as we speak of purging. House sold , purchased our Class A and plan to hit the road my May 20th. Hope to see y’all out on the road. 👏👏🎉🎉
Awesome! It is coming fast!! Congrats to you. I hope you love it as we do!
Just saw this 2 yrs later, but going to Gunter Hill next week to see our grandson who's stationed there. We LOVE COE parks. Have you ever stayed at the Airport COE outside Waco TX? Beautiful view of Waco across the water at night and gorgeous sunsets.
We have and loved that one as well!!!
Enjoyed meeting and talking w/you at the Planet Fitness in Prattville. Thank you for the tips for myself and my wife for our trip out West this spring and summer. Hope to see you on the road sometime or if we can make contact, we'll give you a tour or tell you where to go to find a lot of history in the area.
We enjoyed chatting with you as well! Enjoy your trip. I hope you have a great time.
Thanks Phil and Stacy, we are planning on staying here in Jan. 2025 based on your recommendations.
Our favorite COE
We enjoyed our stay there. We have also purchased Corp of Engineers campground book. Well worth $16 or $17 we paid for it.
Lordy, if I was in US I would definitely stay there. I don’t know of anywhere so well laid out in Oz. 5th wheelers are still pretty rare here so not a lot of places cater for them. Here is Oz I’d say 90% of full time vanners (travel trailers) are max 26 ft in length including A frame. A rig like your would stop traffic here. Me? A Weekender only a16ft “classic” fully stripped and renovated. Love it. Enjoying your channel. Love from Melbourne, Australia.
It is beautiful! I would love to rent an RV in your country and explore!
You, Me & the RV You would be very welcome and I can hook you up with hire rig. Cheers.
Hi guys, check out Deerlick Creek COE just outside of Tuscaloosa
, AL mostly water/electric 50 amp. But the park is one of our favs! Happy trails
Thank you! We will!
Great video as always! :)
Thanks Dean! Good to see you!
Have I seen drone video from you before? Great footage and you operate like you have been in the “Air Force” forever😉
Looks like a great place, but since it is 3 hrs from home, we always make our way back home from trips. I still can’t believe you skipped the beaches of the panhandle, but I know you are trying to go visit your son!
We have had drone footage sprinkled throughout our videos. It has been hard because it is not allowed a lot of places! We also had it in our video from last week as an opener. We will include it as much as possible.
You were talking to us about purging. I felt like you were really looking into my home. Lol!! My husband and I are wanting to full time RV in about 4 yrs and the reason is we are in a yr of a 5 yr bankruptcy. We have a used camper that we bought 2 yrs ago and are taking it my dads land in Ky, I just found him 2 yrs ago. We have to get us a truck before we can get a camper to work on getting our credit built back up. We love watching you two. You have very interesting pointers for wanting to go full time. Would love to meet up if you are still Rving in 5 yrs. Safe travels!!!
Sounds like a plan! We wish you the best during your transition.
You, Me & the RV Thanks! Can’t wait!
Damn it, you got me. Purge!!!!!
Hahahaha! Get 'er done!
We stayed at Gunter Hill in 2000 and it is a beautiful park. I can see that there have been upgrades since then. We were living full time in a little Class C with our 12 yr old son. Part of our home-school curriculum was a unit study on the civil rights movement. I don't remember seeing a Rosa Parks museum, but maybe it was not built at that time. We did visit a number of other significant sites in the movement. We are full time now in our fifth wheel, but I did get a laugh out of the "purge" comment. My advice to all: Just do it!
I agree!! What are you waiting for! Do It!
Looks like a great CG. Looking forward to meeting you on Saturday. Phil, stop looking into our living room!! We’ve purged everything.
Awesome!!! So excited for the meet up.
We are working on the purging! Had our first garage sale this weekend. Got rid of a ton of stuff & made a LOT of money!
Perfect!! Add it to the Nomad pile!
And YES, I've had my house purged since Sept 2018, house on the is in process, closing sale by May 15 or sooner, crossing fingers. Flying to Mississippi to pick up my 5th wheel and the guy is selling me his truck too! I will be on my way full time soooooonnn!! So Stoked!!! Hope to meet up with you two sometime. Love your videos!!
This is awesome!! Congrats to you. I hope you love it.
@@todayissomeday I'm sure I will.... It's time to travel. I'm exploring doing some rock hounding.
So with that new opening to the video, I was wondering if I clicked on the correct VLOG. Glad that I did click on the correct one. Wow, what a campsite! We will definitely go visit that one when we are on the road. I do have one bone to pick with Phil. Why did you have to call me out like that in the video? I am working on the purge lol. Great video, still my favorite retired military RVer couple on youtube.
Hey friend! We are trying to drone when we can. Unfortunately, most places dont allow drones so we havent been able to launch. But we kinda snuck it at the COE park! PS: keep the purging going! lol
We've started, mostly we're moving things from one room to another, and occasionally trips to the Salvation Army.
It is a start!!
You both are so funny. It's funny I thought you could see us perging. Haha that's what we are doing we leave the end of june. We are living the norman life. ☺ great video.
That is so close!! Congrats and I hope you love your new way of life.
Great video you guys! We Love Love Love our Planet Fitness Membership. They are always in big cities so it can be hard to fin them sometimes, but Thomas and I have gotten really good at planning our stays around the gym. He's lost 30lbs and several inches. We are cracking down in May and June food wise. Gotta get them beach bodies ready 😂😂😂😂😂🏋️♂️🏋️♀️
~Stacy~
Thanks Stacy and please congratulate Thomas for us. We know how hard it is to drop the lbs although it is so easy to pick them up!! Food is killing us right now too! Every time we meet up with family our diet is out the window.
We also love our Planet Fitness membership. Sometimes we are surprised how many small towns have them.
Okay okay, I'll start purging!!
Move it! Move it! lol
Dang, I thought I had the camera covered up on my computer but you saw right in at all my junk. Actually, I am proud to say that I managed to get a whole bag ready to donate today. Hopefully a little every day will get me there. Safe travels.
hahahahaha! A little every day is the best way to go! Less stress and anxiety that way!
Lol, made me laugh! Felt like you were talking right to me 🤣
Hahahaha! He is a total nut!
LOL we purged!! ps but hubby needs to do more lol started our full-time 2 weeks ago, hope to see you two on the road =]
Yay! Great job. PS We are still purging 1 year later! It never ends. See ya out there.
There are quite a few good COE parks along the AR river valley and along the AL/GA border.
Awesome! Thanks
Hello fellow retired GIs, LE, and RED Owner,
April, last year, on the way back from Red Bay, we ended up in Montgomery, Maxwell AFB, had to kill five days. It was on the fly, and one of our more enjoyable five days to burn, lots of history there.
We did Selma, Edmund Pettus Bridge, Rosa Parks, Capitol, Civil Rights Museum, MLK Memorial Chapel, and a must Chris' Hot Dogs.
Keep up the good videos, i have a coin for you, if our paths cross.
No FB, no IG.
Todd
We did not see enough there for sure! We do plan to return and finish up your list!! Hopefully, we will see you out there.
Beautiful campground! Stacey did you cry at the Rosa Parks museum? I know I would have. Safe travels!
I didnt actually cry but it was very emotional.
