We like this campground, but the cell service has gotten worse for some reason. The guy at the front gate needs some help.

Campground could have been cleaner. Hosts had no control of campground. Speediing was really bad I would hate to see a child hit.

Dwayne Hayes is a beautiful facility. All the campsites and facilities are well kept. The bathrooms are always clean and the camp hosts are very kind.

Really a nice park to camp in. Bathrooms were a little dated but functioned fine. Was there for a MSU VS KY football game that was a night game so getting back into the park late at night was a bit sketchy. Feel like that should be addressed.

The weather was perfect and so was this COE. This was our first stay at DeWayne Hayes but will not be our last. Sites are all paved and level. Our neighbors and the camping community here were great. We did not have any interaction with the host, but our site was clean and ready for us when we arrived. The baths house was in need of an update, but the host made sure it was clean every morning.
We had 3 bars on our phones through ATT and were able the receive 5 local TV channels with an antenna. This may have been our first time her but surely will not be our last.

The host and park personnel were great, very friendly and knowledgeable. The bathrooms clean and the campsites spacious and very nice. I love this park and would have loved to give it 5 stars but the noise was horrendous . The AFB is close by and they do training exercises a few hours in the morning . There’s nothing to be done about that but the most annoying thing was boats with full throttle coming in from fishing at 11:00 and 12:00 at night just as you are getting to sleep makes it hard to enjoy the park. During the times between the planes and boats it was peaceful and quiet and we loved that. Maybe we will try it again someday.
