Things to do at Wind Creek State Park
- Swim Beach and Day-Use Area EasyRV parking available
The park's sandy swim beach on Lake Martin is the main day-use hub, with picnic tables, grills, and restrooms nearby. It is an easy walk from most campground loops and has paved parking that accommodates tow vehicles.
- Wind Creek Marina and Boat Launch EasyRV parking available
The full-service marina offers a public boat ramp, courtesy docks, fuel, and seasonal boat rentals for exploring Lake Martin. RV travelers often use the launch to put in kayaks, pontoons, or ski boats stored on a trailer.
- Fishing on Lake Martin EasyRV parking available
Lake Martin is known for largemouth and spotted bass, crappie, and striped bass, with productive water just steps from many campsites. The park has a lighted fishing pier in addition to shoreline access points.
- Wind Creek Hiking and Biking Trails EasyRV parking available
The park maintains several miles of multi-use trails winding through pine and hardwood forest near the lakeshore. Routes are mostly flat to gently rolling, suitable for casual hikers and families.
- Stargazing Program and Observatory EasyRV parking available
Wind Creek has hosted public stargazing programs on dark-sky nights, taking advantage of its relatively low light pollution for a lakeside park. Check the park's event calendar for current viewing sessions.
- Paddling and Kayaking EasyRV parking available
Calm coves around the park shoreline make Lake Martin a beginner-friendly destination for kayaks, canoes, and stand-up paddleboards. Seasonal rentals are available at the marina for visitors who did not bring their own boats.
- Birdwatching and Wildlife Viewing EasyRV parking available
The mix of lake, shoreline, and upland forest supports herons, ospreys, bald eagles, and a wide range of songbirds. Early mornings along quieter campground loops and shoreline trails are the best times to spot wildlife.

How to get to Wind Creek State Park
Wind Creek sits off Alabama Highway 128, about 7 miles southeast of Alexander City and roughly 60 miles (about 1 hour 15 minutes) northeast of Montgomery via US-231 and US-280. Birmingham is about 90 miles northwest, a drive of about 1 hour 45 minutes via I-65 and US-280. Roads into the park are generally flat with no mountain grades or tunnel restrictions, but the final county roads include some tight turns and low-hanging branches, so large Class A rigs should take them slowly. The nearest major airport for fly-and-rent trips is Montgomery Regional Airport (MGM), with Birmingham-Shuttlesworth International (BHM) a popular alternative with more flight options.
