This is the quietest CG we have ever stayed at. Breath taking view! We counted 7 mountain chains in the distance! Staff very hospitable. Very clean and well kept. Off grid but on grid. Full hookups. Gravel pads but level. Pavilion And picnic table at every lot. Great rates. We will be back!

Frank’s Point of View was a hidden gem. So grateful we found this slice of Heaven campsite. Gorgeous 360° views from the top of the hill. Camp hosts were so kind and friendly! We saw fireflies at night after watching the gorgeous sunset and moonrise from the hilltop. We stayed an extra night just to take it all in, we didn’t want to leave!
Amenities: Full hook ups, a fire ring with firewood for your first night, picnic table under a cover, including a cover for your tow vehicle, level gravel site, swings, corn hole, horse shoes, miles of private nature trails. Lots of small touches that make this so wonderful! The hosts set up bird / hummingbird feeders so there is a lot of activity to watch, deer feeder, and a shade / privacy barrier that does not obstruct views of the mountains!
Road leading in is gravel and has two large hills to climb. We didn’t need 4WD but they were quite an incline, worth it to reach the view at the top! The small town of Ashland is about 10 min away with restaurants and grocery. We have a 37’ travel trailer. Great ATT coverage!

We lucked out and were able to book a Memorial Day weekend campsite at the last minute. Franks Point of View is a unique and special place. Just 8 campsites all have large shade structures and full hook ups. The owners are great folks and incredibly helpful. The views, sunsets and night sky are incredible. We will be back.

Best kept secret campground in Alabama!
What a wonderful, family owned campground! 5 stars is not enough for Frank's Point of View Campground in Ashland, AL.
Pros
*Amazing cell service (husband and I worked for the full 2 weeks we were there and it was really easy)
*Small- 8 sites (each and every one has an amazing view of rolling hills, mountains, and the Talladega Forest)
*Huge canopy covering in each site
*Full hook ups
*Hiking Trails
*Good Price/weekly rates are available
*Little things that the owners thought of like hummingbird and deer feeders, a free bundle of wood for your first fire, hooks for a hammock (you have to bring your own), small clubhouse with pool table, swings for the kiddos, and they are building a bath house.
Cons
None that I could think of
The owners could expand and easily fit 2 or 3 times as many sites, but they don't want to compromise the feel of the place or not allow for every site to have that perfect view. We spent 2 full weeks working, with 2 dogs, a 3yr old and 5 yr old. I loved seeing the kids get to explore in nature and truly felt like we were boondocking in somewhere remote.
I'm not usually one to leave a review unless I feel strongly about a place. I want to recommend Frank's though because they are only about a year old and were mostly empty while we were there. I hope they get more business so that they are there when make it back some day!!

If I could more stars I WOULD!!! I can't say enough amazing things about this site! Literally as close as you can get to boondocking but don't have to sacrifice any conveniences!
Site was level and very well maintained! Plus Gary and Tricia provide each spot with firewood and all the tools you need to enjoy your time around the firepit! Then they offer firewood for sale on site as well. It is almost like staying with family! Everyone is beyond kind! Gary provided us with propane when we ran out (which was essential because it dropped below freezing a few times at night)
The views are absolutely incredible! The trails were so much fun to explore! We found a branch stuck in the trees and created a "rope swing" which provided a needed rest for the kids.
I was able to conduct my zoom meetings without any issues on Verizon. Tmobile was hit or miss. we were able to connect tablets and do simple things on the internet but streaming didn't work well.
SERIOUSLY can't express how much we loved our time at the Frank's home. After 9 months of being full time this is definitely on our top 5 spots!! ......Actually on second thought I take it all back... you should stay far away because we would love to come back!

This is as close to boondocking as you can get but still have full hookups. With only 8 sites, and all the people at Frank’s Point of View are here for the same reason...the tranquility. That would include the hiking trails too.
The view stretches on forever, and you never get tired of looking out at it as the sun and clouds change the colors.
There was a mention in a previous review that getting to the campground might be a challenge in a large class. It is not. We are almost 60K pounds with our car in tow and we navigated the hills without any reservations or problems. Ez-peezy.
Lastly, the owners are real RV’ers and it shows not only in the sites but in their hospitality! Most excellent! We will be back for the fall colors in 2021.
