A very nice campground with abundant shade, nice bicycling. Part of a very large park complex, apparently built in anticipation of much larger volume of use.
Again, another Mississippi ACOE campground which locks all of its laundry rooms for use by staff only.

Dewayne Hayes CG was well designed. It is spacious, quiet and clean . Nice for walking with hiking trails and playgrounds. Conveniently located between Columbus and West Point.

Beautiful park, we’ve been there many times over the years. Spacious sites, some with sewer but all have water and electric. Dump station available. Bathhouses could use to be updated, can’t remember anytime over the 8 years that we’ve been camping there that any updates have occurred to them. Some sites have a really nice view of the river, others not so much. Some clean up work along the banks and at the boat ramps are needed.

It was our first time camping at this campsite and 2nd time camping. Overall it was a great experience and my 3 kids had a good time.
I wish the play park was just a bit bigger.
Definitely a lot of ants everywhere. Thankfully we managed to not have many in thr camper this time around.
A quiet place even when it was almost all the way full this labor day weekend. We will be back at some point. Thank you.
Oh yes and pretty clean bathrooms on site at least for camping.

As always, a great experience at Dewayne Hayes. It was a holiday weekend and lots of activity, but still a quite and enjoyable weekend. The grounds were well kept and the camp host/attendant was very nice and accommodating.

We always enjoy our time here. Campsites and bathrooms are always clean. Staff are friendly. We enjoy riding our bikes on the trails and around the campgrounds.
