Bella Terra is a private RV resort in southern Alabama. It was a chance to receive our mail and catch up on bills, phone calls, and emails. Bella Terra is an upscale Class A motorhome retreat. It has a luxurious 6,000-sq ft clubhouse with its distinctive decor, private movie theater, fitness center, and expansive lake views.
While at Bella Terra we did not explore the area as much as we normally do. Michael’s activities are still limited. We had a nice view over a lake, wifi, large paved pad, and a pool/spa! The clubhouse is huge and has a very nice gym…which we didn’t use. There were two fenced in dog areas so Jake was able to get some laps in. Southern Alabama is a boater’s paradise. Bella Terra is just 5 minutes away from the Intracoastal Waterway, and just 10 minutes from the Gulf of Mexico
Beautiful sunsets over the lake fountain.
We were told that Jesse’s Restaurant in Magnolia Springs was the place to go. We went for a late lunch and really enjoyed it. The mushroom risotto was amazing, but then everything is wonderful with a good wine and a nice atmosphere.
We drove around the area and enjoyed it. The historic district had some very old trees and restored homes. It looks like spring in February. Flowers are starting to bloom and some of the trees are budding. The azaleas were beautiful.
Although we really enjoyed southern Alabama. We would enjoy coming back to the area and further explore everything there is to do including boating and sampling the amazing seafood in the area. But, its time to go back to Florida. Private parks are beautiful, can receive mail/packages, and have all the amenities. We are looking forward to a state park for privacy, trees, critters, trails, and maybe canoeing!
