We loved Chilatchee Creek campground. It was clean, quiet and very relaxing. The sites are spacious and most are very private. My 6 y/o loved the playground. We only wished they had hiking trails in the campground. There was a hunting trail and a closed area of the campground that we hiked around, but we really live to hike through trails in the forests!

The camp hosts were great! Can’t wait to return.

We came in late so we weren’t able to experience it during the full daylight. However, we did experience one of the most sunrises over the lake! Absolutely serene. Campground is larger than i originally expected, and the sites are pretty big too.

It is a beautiful park we had such a quiet nice space with a big deck the morning the mist coming off of the river was just beautiful. Our host Kim was the greatest,kind and helpful. We toured Cahaba the 1st capital of Alabama it's now a ghost town so interesting suggested to us by TheFarmersMarket in Orville.which has wonderful food

A delightful hidden gem. Needs a little work on the access road and the power posts. But beautiful sites along the river and hidden in the woods according to your desires. The staff is friendly and helpful, they made me feel a part of their family. I will definitely be coming back.
