🚐 The Trekkin’ Turtle Visits Great Escapes Chestnut Bay, Alabama

There’s something special about waking up to the still waters of Weiss Lake — the soft breeze, the quiet hum of nature, and that perfect cup of coffee by the window of our Thor Palazzo Class A motorhome, lovingly nicknamed The Trekkin’ Turtle. 🐢

On our latest T-Squad adventure, we rolled into Great Escapes RV Resort Chestnut Bay in Leesburg, Alabama, a true lakeside gem for RV families. From the moment we parked, we felt the calm. Wide, clean RV sites, friendly staff, and that stunning lake view — it’s the kind of place where time slows down and memories take over.

The resort offers everything from full-hookup RV sites to cozy cabins overlooking the water. Families can splash at Pirates Bay Waterpark, enjoy kayaking and fishing on Weiss Lake, or just kick back and soak in the sunsets. For us, the highlight was the serenity — no chaos, no rush, just laughter, grilled dinners, and baby Quinn’s first lakeside nap.

If you’re looking for a peaceful Alabama RV getaway that balances fun and tranquility, Great Escapes Chestnut Bay deserves a spot on your map. It’s a perfect reminder that sometimes, the best adventures happen when you simply slow down and let the road guide you.
