Nice campground and well spaced sites.
Quite for the most part, except for air planes all day during the week. But expect that when close to an AFB. Close to to town so easy to get anything you want/need.
Only major drawback was the host at site 7. Never met them or interacted with them. But they have giant string lights and spotlights that lights up the area around them. They leave them on all night. They shine into all sites around them. Stay away from site 7 and it is a decent park.

Loved our stay. Really appreciated the sidewalk trails thru the woods. Great for bicycle riding all thru the campground. Friendly staff. Clean wide sites with nice fire rings. Many sites with great river views.

Dewayne Hayes is a beautiful campground. We camped in a 3 room tent on site 88. We were right on the water. Love watching barges come by.
