Autauga CountyAlabama

A mill town built on a creek

Prattville is the seat of Autauga County, and its story starts with water. Daniel Pratt put his cotton gin factory on the banks of Autauga Creek to use the creek's power, and Heritage Park now occupies the spot where that first factory stood. The county seat moved to Prattville in 1868.^[3]

Outdoor time here centers on water. Cooters Pond Park lies on the Alabama River with boat ramps, docks and a riverwalk, and a canoe trail on Autauga Creek begins at a park behind City Hall. For an overnight stay, a Campendium listing describes Kountry Air RV Park on Highway 82 West with full hookups and many pull-through sites.^[4,5,7]

Prattville questions about storms, damp air and a warm fridge

General information. Every situation is different, so call us about yours.

A line of storms just passed over my parked camper. What should I look at?

Severe storms and the occasional tornado are part of life in central Alabama, so it helps to know what to check afterward. Look at the awning arms and fabric, the slide-out seals and tracks, and the roof vents and trim. Look underneath for jacks or blocks that shifted, and take photos for your records. During a warning, shelter in a sturdy building rather than in the camper. We can inspect the damage at your driveway or storage lot.

Roofs, awnings and sealants

Why does my camper smell musty after a few days near the river?

Damp air is common near rivers and creeks, and it can settle behind cabinets, under mattresses and along cold window frames. Run the air conditioner or a small dehumidifier, open cabinet doors when you can, and wipe down surfaces that sweat. A musty smell that keeps coming back may mean a slow leak rather than plain humidity, and finding the source early saves the wood behind the walls. We can help track it down.

Tracking down a problem

My refrigerator warms up on hot days. Is it the fridge or how I parked?

Either can play a part. Many RV refrigerators work harder in summer heat, especially when the outside vent area is hot or crowded with debris. An absorption refrigerator also cools poorly when the camper sits out of level, so level it first and keep the vents clear. Give the unit time to catch up before you load it with warm food. If it still drifts warm, we can test it at your campsite or driveway.

My camper sits in a storage lot between trips. Do you come out there?

Yes, a storage lot is one of the places we work, though the lot may have its own rules, so ask first. Prattville is about 38 road miles from our base in Thorsby. A lot visit is a good time to check the battery, the tires, the roof seams and the refrigerator before your next trip, instead of finding a problem at the campsite.^[1]
