Desoto State Park, Alabama


22 Oct 2019

We decided to overnight at the Desoto State Park in northern Alabama.  The Desoto Falls are in the park along with numerous hiking trails and other attractions.  We liked it enough that we spent a second night here.  The campground has spacious sites and paved roads.  Bathhouse and dump stations are nearby. 






We drove the motorhome over to the Desoto Falls and had no problem parking but the parking area is not particularly large.  It is a very scenic spot but due to lack of rain for an extended period, there was little to no water over the falls. Several locals mentioned that they have never seen it this dry.











We then took a short stroll on the Azalea Cascade Trail before driving some of the park roads and finding the very small park CCC Museum which is open by appt and on Saturdays.  Afterwards, we enjoyed a quiet evening at our campsite.

Imagine what this would look like after a couple days' worth of rain!
