Campsites are big and roomy! It’s nice and quiet the times we have been there. It’s a great place to take nice walks or if you want to run or jog or ride bikes.
You can sit by a nice fire and watch the sunset most days.

Site B28 was a very good site except it has a tree branch that points directly towards the RV parking spot and is too low. All branches should be trimmed to a minimum height of 14’ to reduce potential for damage to campers.
During summer months many campers require 50amp service to maintain reasonable interior temperature. Particularly critical if pets remain in camper while owners are fishing!! I highly encourage the COE to consider upgrading park to 50amp electrical service at all sites.
Otherwise the park was clean, well attended and enjoyable.

We loved camping at Piney Bay while we visited Russellville. The campsites were father apart than many many places and our dogs had space to stretch their legs. We carefully chose a campsite that worked with our trailer, and were able to step directly out our door to the raised picnic area as they were exactly the right height. We parked in the G loop in the woods, and it had light shade over most of the site and sun in front all day, so we could sit in either. At night it was extreamly quiet, even the first night when every campsite was occupied, and I think it was because the campground is so spread out. Rangers didn't mind well-behaved dogs being off leash, and they made regular passes through to check on the well being of things. We felt very safe
