It was spring break and the beach area wasn't open. Even if you were not swimming it would be nice just to let kids play in the sand and explore! Definitely recommend a playground and make it a little more kid/ family oriented.

We would love it if Corinth stayed open longer in the fall.

When I checked in I ask about putting a tent on our site. I told the lady the tent was large she said it should fit somewhere on your site. We put our tent up to one side. Then when my daughter came in I told her to pay for an extra car because we would have three. Pay 10 you can bring in an extra car. BUT that means park in overflow. Not at your site even if there is room for 40 cars. Only two per site. Yes, I read that in the rules but then they said pay 10 bring in extra. Rules do not specify where you park the extra. Park ranger was rather rude when he came to tell us to move our tent because it wasn’t on the pad. I ask! Told us to move the extra car to over flow! It does not explain that anywhere!!!! Two days later after wind destroyed our tent that couldn’t be staked down. Got another message because our extra car was parked at our site again. Yes, it was. A sick sleeping child was in it and it was not in the road or on the grass. We were gonna move it as soon as she woke up. We WILL NOT BE BACK!!!!!!

Great campground, clean, and very Friendly and helpful Host. No OTA channels for TV. Nice spacing, very private. Never seen so many armadillos. Phone reception on Patriot Mobile was excellent. Lots of beautiful waterfalls to see, other sites include Jesse Owens Museum, Helen Keller Ivey Green not too far to drive and Alabama Natural Arch just down the road from the park. Great trip. Thank you.

Very nice campground, we enjoyed our stay here very much. Clean and quiet and easy access to a beautiful lake for fishing. We are already planning our return trip.

This is a very nice campground. It's a little off the "beaten path" as they say, but that is what draws me to this area. Simply to relax and take it easy. Sites are very nice and roomy, and all amenities worked flawlessly. Hiking trails around for those who enjoy getting in the woods and walking plus a nearby lake for fishing. All in all, a great campground. We will definitely be returning again and again. Also, the campground host while we were there in mid-October was very personable, friendly, and just super nice.

Stayed in site 32, firefly. Large sites with next neighbor far away. Across from bathhouse. The grounds were stunning. At night, it is dark and you can see every star in the sky. A gate code is needed for when gate closes. Verizon worked well for streaming and working. Dish captured all satellites. There are 51 accessible trails in the Bankhead Ntp Forest. Not from the park. You will have to drive to most of them, and the trailheads are not clearly marked nor are the trails. I suggest a physical map because you won't get cell service with Verizon on the trails. We visited the Natural Bridge, which was lush and beautiful.
