We have camped here twice and love it! This campground is convenient to nearby Tuscaloosa. It is relaxing, well maintained and fun to visit. The sites are huge and provide for a great time! This is a must-visit campground.

THE CAMPGROUND IS VERY WELL KEPT. THE BATHHOUSE IS CLEAN AND KEPT THAT WAY OFTEN IN THE DAY. THE VOLUNTEERS RIDE THRU SEVERAL TIMES DURING THE DAY. THE CAMPSITES ARE FAR ENOUGH APART THAT YOU HAVE PRIVACY. IF THERE IS A PROLEM WITH ELECTRICITY OR WATER THERE IS USUALLY SOMEONE THAT WILL HELP. WE HAVE CAMPED THERE FOR YEARS AND LIKE TO GO THERE SINCE IT IS CLOSE TO HOME BUT FAR ENOUGH TO HAVE THAT CLOSE TO NATURE FEELING.
