Love camping at Dwayne Hayes. The sites are spacious and shady. Many sites to choose from. Full hookups available on some sites. Camp host and staff are friendly. Enjoy seeing the barges coming down the Tom Bigbee. Shops are close by if you need anything.

Site was tight and un level. Bathrooms are terrible. Mayflies made it impossible to do anything outside.

Nice park! Large, clean sites. Peaceful trail that is paved that goes behind the park and around a marsh. Can watch the barges go down the River. Not having a swim area would be the only negative.

This campground was really nice when they had host that lived in the campground and were paid to be there. Now, there is nobody stationed at the guardhouse and anyone can come and go as they please. Not a safe condition for the campground that was once a very secure place. You can also see that the lack of government funding for parks is extremely lacking. Bring back the campground that was once a great place to stay!!
