Very nice campground; spacious sites and our site (6) had FHUs. I believe sites 1-13 were FHU and a group of sites at the other end are too. All the sites were kept very neat and clean. DeWayne Hayes is a beautiful, quiet, well kept and spacious campground right along the Tennessee-Tombigbee River. The women's bathroom was very clean and warm. Husband said the men's bathroom not quite as clean. Short drive into the town of Columbus for needed supplies. If coming from the north on Hwy 45, and GPS says to turn on Mike Parra, I wouldn't. It becomes gravel and has a tight turn. Continue to Jess Lyons Road, or further down to MS 373.
Would definitely stay again whenever we are in the area.

This is a great park very near Columbus AFB in MS. We stayed during late January so the park was nearly empty. Bathrooms were very clean, but not overly warm for winter temps. We enjoyed the path through the woods very much. It's definitely a park we will return to.

It was mostly quiet. There was only 10 or so other campers the entire two weeks we were there. The camp hosts were very friendly and helpful. I am looking forward to returning when we're back in the area.

We had a beautiful campsite on the water at the Dewayne Hayes Campground. It was a full hook up, pull through site. We were just passing through and only stayed one night but made a note that we'd definitely like to come back for a long stay in the future. From the traveling we've done with our Class C motorhome, we've found that we really like the Corps of Engineer campgrounds so much more than commercial campgrounds. They are usually a little off the beaten path in an area with a lake or river. The sites a larger and a lot more quiet than what we've had at commercial sites, and with our senior lifetime pass we just can't beat the price anywhere else. The only problem we've encountered at some COE campgrounds is poor cell reception for our hotspot, but we didn't have that problem at the Dewayne Hayes Campground. Since we were only there one night, we didn't use any of the other facilities that were available.
