This is an extremely clean and well maintained campground. Staff was out cleaning fire pits and sweeping off the pad as soon as a camper departed. A great place to stay when visiting Tuscaloosa.

Sites are well spaced apart. Each site was is at a different tier - so what might look like an interior sight may really have quite the view.
