We were pleasantly surprised at how nice your park is. The paved streets with paved sites to park on made it so nice and cleaner and comfortable. The sites were comfortably large enough to stay far enough away from neighbors during the pandemic. Very impressed. We will be back.

We have always loved Dewayne. It’s not too far from home or town. Our kids would enjoy the splash park & playground. We would have their grandparents out to visit the campsite one night while we were there. They both looked forward to it..but now, things are so different. It’s just sad that we can’t let the kids play in any of the kid areas. Their grandparents can’t come visit. It’s just not the same. I realize it’s that way everywhere, thanks to Covid. Ready for camping to be what it use to be!

This was our second visit and we will return again. Camp sites are large with good privacy and we were right next to the river. The cement pad was great and fairly level. The park is well maintained and it is one of our favorite stops. We highly recommend DeWayne Hayes.

Hosts are always friendly and helpful. One of the most scenic and spacious COE parks. Lots of shade trees. Campgrounds are kept clean and well maintained. A previous reviewer said the gates are not open until 8 AM but there is a one way traffic spike exit open 24/7. I prefer having the entrance gates closed at 10 PM for security reasons.
