Nice showers, wonderful view on the lake and cute fireflies.
We are Tent Campers and it's not usual to have water and electricity in all sites. Really great place, we'll definitely come back

Beautiful location and campsite was relatively level. Only criticism was the site was extremely steep on the entry side of our rig. The last step was a doozy. Due to the steepness the picnic table was on the wrong side.

We loved Dub Patton!! Beautiful, quiet, serene!! It was a stop-over for us. We only planned on staying 2 nights, but stayed 4. We were on our way to the coast. Love Dub Payton!!

We love the area. The only problem was using the website. It wasn't user friendly and the cell service here isn't great.

The site that I picked was in a swag that collected mud runoff, so that was disappointing. The area was quiet in the evening hours - to a point! Good view of the lake from the end of the campground road. Lovely sunrise. Shower facilities were ok, just average. Good stay for the price (half price with my Parks Pass).
The Bad: This campground is unfortunately located right where FedEx jets either line up or make their final turn in to the Memphis airport, and it went on nonstop until 2 AM. Highly recommend earplugs, if you want to get any sleep.

Every year we come down it’s a blast and we always meet new families camping.

Site 21 is angled entry which is fine however the end of the road is closed so you can not pull your RV out without having to back up all the way to the main Rd with it. ALSO the fire ring and picnic table are on the back side of your camper right next to your sewer lines. We were unable to use them all weekend. Even if you were tent camping who wants to sit by a fire next to the sewer system?!?! Bathhouse was full of water considering the showers are not in the same unit. And they were a very dirty mess. Only sites we liked the set up on were 20 (which is not listed as a site) and 12. Don't go by the site pics either. None of them get cleared of the pine needles. You can not see the concrete/asphalt where your camper goes
