Because of spring vacation camping activity, we had made a reservation a week ago. A couple of weeks ago we had a neighbor who highly recommended site 52, so that's we ended up. He was right - an excellent site at the end of the campground right on the bank of the waterway, with all its barge traffic. Date of visit: Mar 2010 |
 |
Sites 52-49 are at the end of the camp road and are the only sites directly on the Tombigbee. |
 |
Sites 43-42. |
 |
Sites 39-36 are on Foscue Creek. |
 |
Sites 25-27. |
 |
Looking across the creek at sites 3, 5, 6 and 7. |
 |
Sites 23-20. |
 |
Sites 7-1 are the loop nearest the campground entrance. The creek is just beyond them. |
 |
Sites 42, 43, 24-22. |
 |
Sites 13 and 12 are among the five that do not provide sewer hookups. |
 |
The few sites that are not on the water are still very pleasant sites. Here are sites 31-30. |
 |
One of the two bathhouses in the campground. It provides hot showers and has a small laundry facility ($1.00 per load). |
 |
There are two playgrounds in the campground proper and over in the day-use area a new play area is being installed. |
 |
A number of barges came by our site during our stay, such as this coal-laden string. |
 |
And there were some empty barges heading upriver. |
 |
Across from the day-use area is a small Coast Guard station, not exactly what one would expect to find in the middle of Alabama. |
