We stayed on site 84 during the week. It was very nice with plenty of separation from other sites. I had not paid attention to where sewer sites were because I didn’t think COE parks had sewer. If we go again I will pick a sewer site. Other than that it was a very nice stay. Bathhouses are adequate but not heated/cooled. That’s fine with me. Park was pretty well cared for and nicely arranged. I loved watching the different boats and barges pass by pretty close to shore. Overall great stay and easy set up. Had good cell signal too. 3 bars and LTE.

Great campground. Awesome park attendants. Level spot with a view of the river. Very quiet and peaceful. Nice concrete walking/biking trail thru the woods along the backwaters of the river. Saw numerous squirrels and deer while there. Can’t wait to return.

We have been going to Dewayne Hayes for several years and we do not like the new way they do the reservations. Several sewer sites that were showing booked were empty all weekend. Then when we went to leave and dump our black tank the dump station was running over and blocked off. With the increase in cost they should be doing better, not worse. And blowing off the camp site after someone leaves at 7 am is for the birds. People are trying to sleep. If you can’t check in until 3:00 … why the hurry?

Gate attendants very friendly. Stayed for a week without issue. Very nice campground but wish there were some full hook up sites with view of water.

Very nice clean campground with spacious sites. Not full hookup but with the scenery we didn’t care. Right on the Tombigbee River. Definitely will visit again! $24. A night $12. With discount.
