Timberline Glamping at Lake Martin
Quick Facts
Why Lake Martin & Wind Creek State Park
Lake Martin is a 44,000-acre reservoir with over 750 miles of wooded shoreline, created by the completion of Martin Dam in 1926 and once the largest man-made lake in the world. The lake is known for popular boating spots like Chimney Rock and the Kowaliga Bridge, along with Wind Creek State Park, home to the largest state-operated campground in the United States.
Timberline’s glamping tents sit inside Wind Creek, right on the lakefront, with kayaks and paddle boards waiting at the water’s edge — a genuinely easy way to get out on one of Alabama’s most beloved lakes.
