I loved It! Days Inn Moulton, Alabama
I can't even describe it to you. It was a amazing experience. I actually went because of a wedding, but the motel was very nice. The staff was very understanding for my family's needs and they did everything to help us. I keep bothering them about little things and every response from them was so sweet. My kids were able to play freely. The town was really quit and everything was just great. We were even put on the same side as my other family members without any request made about this and it was just great because we were able to knock on each others doors without bothering other guest that stayed that night. I could keep going, but that is that.

Fort Morgan
Fort Morgan is a Third System Coastal Defense Fort. It was built after the War of 1812 when Congress realized the need for stronger fortifications along the eastern and southern coastlines.

The post was named in honor of Revolutionary War hero Daniel Morgan. For more information, please call (334) 540-7125.

Lake Guntersville State Park
One reason to visit Guntersville is to stay at Lake Guntersville State Park. While known for its beaches, hiking and boating, the State Park is a popular meeting point for local road bikers to start an easily navigated out-and-back ride that skirts the southern shore of Lake Guntersville for nearly 25 miles all the way to Scottsboro. The road is lightly traveled as it swings in and out of the hills and through the low backwaters at the edge of the lake. It is as scenic as it is challenging. Riders can really amp up the challenge by detouring to Jackson County Road 38 at Langston Gap. By adding on this 21-mile loop to the top end of the route, you can add in a stiff 1.4-mile climb up Sand Mountain. For more information, please call (256) 571-5440.
