Prairie Creek (AL)

This is not a knock on the campground as Prairie Creek is my absolute favorite place to stay. The rating was poor due to this last trip ONLY. The was some hunting tournament where there were many hunting dogs tied up outside of many sites around us. The dogs were constantly howling and totally ruined the peace and quiet we are accustomed to at this campground. We called and complained about the constant barking and were told that a Ranger would go by and remedy the situation. That did not happen. I finally went to a group of the hunters and politely asked them to please take the barking dogs away from my campsite. There were people that drove in for the hunt that would just leave their dogs tied up in random places. They did remove the dog that created a large part of the noise but could not fix all of the noise. I wish there was a calendar of events that would warn campers of something like this when it is going on.
You will not find a better place to stay than Prairie Creek so please do not let this review deter you from staying there.

Gate attendant was friendly and the Park Ranger was very helpful. The site was clean and level. This is a hidden gem of the COE campgrounds.

Prairie Creek is a very nice campground. Most of the sites are on the water and they are level. The campground has nice restrooms with showers and laundry.

We camped in site 19, there were dog hunters at the pavilion, and their dogs barked most of the time. Called the camp host, they didn’t attempt to do anything.
There was no ranger on duty. Very dissatisfied with who can rent the pavilion

We had planned an annual dog show and competition months in advance after meeting with the camp hosts to describe exactly what would occur and how many people were expected. Upon arrival, the camp hosts were terribly rude and caused each member of our association as much trouble as possible, even going so far as to say a member of the group had to come to gate each time an additional member arrived from a five-state area.
One bathhouse was disgusting and had no handicap accommodations. When that was reported to the park ranger his response was, "Oh, that bathhouse needs to be shuttered."
Many other campground volunteers and frequent campers stated the same complaints about the rude campground hosts. Will never use this facility again for any reason.

Very friendly and helpful camp Host during the check-in process. The Campground is very well maintained and quiet. Most Sites are very large with most of them right on the water. We'll be back!
