We stayed here this weekend for a couple of nights for a ball tournament. It was a small campground and priced at 20 per night. Great find as all others were full that we tried to get into. If I come back through I would stop here again.

My experience here was perfectly nice and possibly deserving 4 stars, but I've given 4 to much nicer campgrounds and this one is definitely down a notch. Andy & Mandy gave a pretty fair review late last year. Access is very direct off River Road/Hwy 40 on good roads. It's 20 minute drive to get into town where you can find all the stores and attractions you might desire. I ended up here because McFarland Park was full (which is much closer, if not in town itself) and I didn't have much to go on as far as reviews of other parks in the area. I was also concerned about being able to find a spot this close to Memorial Day weekend. I called and after a while, Jim answered. At first, he thought the park was full but then he remembered someone had just left. He told me to text him and he would send me the site number, which he did, nothing else. This was on Saturday prior to a Tuesday arrival. Just as you enter the park the road goes straight and down a short hill to the boat ramp. To the left is the main loop, sites 1-20 (no trees). I drove through there and didn't see my site so I sent Jim a txt. I didn't hear back right away so I figured I'd take my chances and look for my site. Just before the main loop is a road to the left - nothing is marked and no signs. I proceeded left, past the storm shelter, the turn to the pavilion, and down a blind road into the trees, NOT my favorite thing to do when towing and not knowing if there is a turnaround. Fortunately this was the right way to the "lower" sites, 21 and above, as well as the dry/tent camping area. These sites are pretty basic, with 4 of the 8 or so sites taken by what appeared to be longer-term tenants. I wasn't able to fully level but got close enough. The hookups were basic - the water spigot at ground level covered with a blue bucket with a rock on top. The electrical box has a small wasp nest...my BIGGEST pet peeve. The sewer was fine. The biggest surprise was the 40+ foot tall tower next to me with decent WiFi. Yes, direct cell signals are spotty throughout the area so this WiFi came in handy. I just checked the WiFi I got 27 down and 22 up. Jom provided a passcode. As I was setting up, Jim drove up. Very nice guy. I paid him by check and he gave me a receipt. He also offered a pretty decent area map of the 4 towns with all the attractions well laid out. Unfortunately things were still fairly shut down due to COVID but many of the historical/cultural sites you could see easily from the street. Downtown Tuscumbia was really nice. The river is great as are the dams and the TVA Reservation area and trails. Wildwood Park is great with good MTB trails. The Rosenbaum House is amazing if you're into FLW. Helen Keller and the WC Handy birthplaces are both cool. Least I should mention the nature trails here in the park. They aren't that long but circle all around the park, pavilion, play area, with a long flight of steps and through the woods. I found a big patch of wild raspberries, not quite ready for picking. The water area is nice if you want to paddle out to the river or just around the inlet. The neighbors were quiet. Oh, there was a sad homeless cat hanging around - it was not well and ran off as soon as you approached. I left out food for it which quickly disappeared. The other county park, Rose Trail, is way far away on the other side of the county about an hour from this park. But it is a good bit larger, has 3 loops all in the trees (one with just 30 amp and water, the other 2 FHU) right on a large inlet from the Tennessee River. It was quite full when I passed through with only a few sites in the more run-down 30 amp loop. But it would work as well as this in a pinch and for the same price.
