Gunter Hill Campground COE - Montgomery, Alabama

Campground ****
PFR *****

We stayed in this park once before, in the Antioch Loop.  This time, we stayed in the Catoma Loop, which is FHU.  The sites are REALLY nice, with very long concrete parking pads and packed dirt and tiny gravel yards.  The yard was large enough to use all 7 xpens.  There are lovely mature trees, with Spanish moss hanging from them.  It is very quiet and peaceful.

The only problem we have is that, even using the portable satellite dish, we can not get local channels.  The Eastern arc satellites do not carry the local channels, and Mike was never able to find a spot where it could see all of the satellites on the Western arc.  But, we got all the network channels on the OTA antenna, so we just had to switch back and forth.  Looks like if we were in site #..., or any of the ones across the street, we would have no problem with the portable getting all the satellites.

The mosquitoes are TERRIBLE!!!  They swarm us outside, and follow us inside.

 Site #63
$13 with senior discount
Length of stay - 2 weeks
FHU
Satellite - None on rooftop and only 2 with portable
OTA - 32 channels
Water pressure -60 lbs

(Original review 5/5/17 in the older, water & electric loop)
This is a really nice COE.  The roads leading to our site were pretty narrow and poorly marked.  But our site was easy to get into and right next to the water.  The site was packed aggregate and level.  The patio area was big enough to use all 7 of our xpens.

This site is mostly shaded, both morning and evening, and is pretty secluded.

Sites 1 - 75 are in the Catoma Loop.  It appears to be newer, and are FHU.  The parking pads are level concrete, with pea gravel patio areas.  It looks like there are a lot of long sites.

Sites 76 - 141 are in the Antioch Loop, water & electric only.

Site #101  (Site 102 would probably also work. Angel & Teresa were in site 100)
Length of stay - 2 weeks
$9/night
OTA - 32 channels
Satellite - Didn't try, too many trees
Water pressure - 70 lbs 
No sewer
