What Guests Are Saying

Chilatchee Creek is praised for its cleanliness, well-maintained campsites, and friendly hosts, particularly Kim, who is noted for her helpfulness. The campground offers a peaceful atmosphere with beautiful views and ample space for privacy, making it a hidden gem for campers. While access involves a mile-long dirt road and cell reception is poor, these factors do not detract significantly from the overall positive experience.

We camped at Chilatchee Creek in December so there were very few sites occupied. We had site 15 which has a lovely view of the water and concrete parking pad. Table, lamp pole, water and electric utility nearby. There are steps down to the water and a short pier between the next site. This site is remote to say the least, so don’t expect to dash out to any nearby Walmart for forgotten supplies. There is a short section of single lane dirt road to traverse which might be more difficult in wet weather. Besides the usual camp activities, fishing, hunting and nature watching, do not miss visiting Old Cahawba the site of Alabama’s first capital. Excellent historical preservation and interpretation. About a thirty minute drive north into Dallas County.

We need to know before we arrive we have to pay on line only. The last time I was there we could pay there. That was a huge problem.

Extremely calming and beautiful area off the beaten path. Poor cell reception. There is a dirt one lane road between the county road and park road for about a mile. It was fine and very worth it. Good showers and laundry.

Policies & Rules

Cancellation policy

  • Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
  • Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
  • Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
    • Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
  • Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
  • Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
  • Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.
