Dewayne Hayes

We love Dewayne Hayes Campground.. so quite, clean, peaceful but close to town. Love it

Excellent visit as always. Clean bathrooms and well maintained. We had a very enjoyable and peaceful time. Cant wait to visit again.

This is a great off season park for us. We had site 74 and could enjoy watching the barges go up and down the river. Plenty of space between sites. We love the walking path through the woods. The host, Steve, was very helpful and friendly. We very much appreciate the staff maintaining the bath houses and grounds, they are very friendly and do a great job.
The park is close to Columbus which has everything you need from groceries to laundry. Be sure to eat at The Grill, the food is excellent.

Dewayne Hayes is an excellent campground for a quiet getaway. Our site backed up to the waterway. We enjoyed watching the barges. The campground is large and the sites are spacious. Bathhouse was very clean. It would be nice if there were doors on showers rather than curtains. We loved "the sound of freedom" each morning aka planes from Columbus Airforce base training. We will be back.

Everything was excellent! Hosts are awesome!

The facilities were great! Spacious sites, with parking! Friendly staff!

Only negatives observed: lack of signage from main roads & main road in is narrow, no shoulders (would hate to meet a big rig or bigger camper on those roads).

Nice park, good accommodations. Nice, clean restrooms and showers. Good, paved roads and concrete pads. I have a son in a wheelchair and should have reserved a handicapped site. The gravel surface around the picnic table and BBQ pit and fire pit does not work well with a wheelchair. Checked in after hours and there were no Late Check-in Instructions or maps at the office. Had to find my site on my own. Had I not had my registration documents, I would have not known which site to get on. Camp host did come by after I was on the site and setting up. Over-all a very good park and I had a good, peaceful experience in a beautiful setting.

Nice clean COE Campground
We stopped at this COE campground on our way back to Memphis from the Alabama coast and spent the night. We had originally reserved a pull-through site (#66) but there was a camper in that site that had issues and could not move so they moved us to another site (#13). This was a back-in site, but it was pretty level and worked out just fine. The ranger on duty when we arrived even paid the $2 fee for changing sites due to it not being our problem.

The sites are spaced well and are fairly level. There are concrete hiking trails close by that weave around the edge of the Tenn-Tom backwater. We really enjoyed walking around those trails. There is a lot of wildlife around (geese, cranes, deer, squirrels, raccoons, opossums, etc.).

The rangers were all very friendly and easy to work with if there was an issue. The roads are in good shape and all the sites are fairly easy to put a camper in.

We were there in late December so insects were not an issue but I can imagine in the spring, summer and early fall, they could be challenging.

NOTE: If you are using GPS, be aware that some systems might try to take you through West Point, MS and on Barton Ferry Rd. Be aware, Barton Ferry Rd does NOT cross the river so you cannot access the COE site from that road on the west side of the river. You must cross over the river on Hwy 50 from West Point and access Dewayne Hayes from there.

We would stay here again.

plenty of walking trails and open spaces for our fur babies, most of the full hookup sites are spaced out but a lot of trees have old limbs that drop a lot of times

Nice campground if not raining. We got used to the barges and the planes from the base. The sites are spread apart enough for some privacy.
