Styx River RV Resort, Robertsdale, Alabama

Styx River Resort is one of the resorts of Ocean Canyon Properties, and is our "home base resort." The park is off of I-10 at Hwy 64, east of Mobile, north of Robertsdale off Waterworld Road, and not too far from Pensacola, Florida, and like the name says, is on the Styx River.  

Styx River has been serving Gulf Coast campers with vacation rentals and RV campsites since 1983. The resort has received lots of recognition and numerous awards as being one of the finest outdoor resorts in the United States.  They offer large pull-thru sites perfect for RV camping, beautiful cabin rentals, a large clubhouse with both an indoor and an outdoor pool, a small restaurant, kids’ playground, and easy access to the beautiful beaches on the Gulf of Mexico.

There are some full time residents who reside at the park, and a lot of OCP members who visit.  They also have cabins which we have stayed in on our travels. There is a large recreation center with games, TV center, play center for children, kitchen. Upstairs is for adults only with two pool tables, TV center, and tables for card games. They also host lots of activities for the guests and children. There is a large playground for the kids and a game center as well.

Kitchen

There are two pools - one outside and a heated one inside. They have a real nice outdoor center with TV's, lots of tables and where they hold get togethers.

There is a large section that they say will be developed one day, but so far it's a very nice field with a pond where Waterworld used to be. 

There is a trail around the pond, but it's hard to get to from the street side but once through the brush, there is a nice trail, which I then turn right onto another trail which takes me along the Styx River to the swimming section, campfire, and stairs to get back to the campground.

Walking the dogs by the lake every day I keep watching for a picture opportunity.  I especially like reflections and this one popped up the other day.

There is a nice stairway and decks down to Styx River with a large fire pit and picnic tables near the river.  The river is low enough for tubing and playing in. There is a trail along the river which comes out at what used to be the Waterworld. There is a large concrete slab next to the lake, and a large grassy area around the lake where I let Hayley & Lucy loose to get their exercise.
