Can't make a recommendation but here is a link to rvparky which is one of many ways to find a place to stay.

I use rvparky as my first choice, you can design your complete trip and pick places to stay along the way including walmart, fuel station that let you overnight luvs travel America.

Here is the link for rvparky Trip Planner

Hope this helps.

The state park is extremely nice, too.

There is a new park just opened called Pandion Ridge on the island side of the Intercoastal Waterway, it's really nice and open to all types. sugar Sands is just north of the IC WW and is very nice as well but requires you to cross a toll bridge to get to the beach. If you want a class A only park, look at Terry Cove, Heritage, Bella Terra, or Beuna Vista. These parks are nearer to Orange Beach instead of Gulf Shores but that is where the best restaurants are. If you want to stay in Gulf Shores, look at Luxury RV, it is the most centrally located but nothing special as far as amenities. The state park is ok but no cable, no wifi, and you have to drive to go anywhere. Great bike/walking trails though.

We just got back from Gulf State Park in Gulf Shores Alabama. It is a great place. Sites are full service, level concrete pads, with good spacing. We were along the lake. They own many miles of white sand beach and a fishing pier that goes out into the Gulf for 1/4 mile. They also have about 16 miles of bike trails and a golf course which I believe they own. Also close to town for restaurants, etc.

+1 for Pandion Ridge (especially if they've gotten their cable tv problems resolved)
