Best Campgrounds near Demopolis, AL

The camp is very relaxing along the Tombigbee River. Camp has latrine and rustic campsites. Several spots with river view and have picnic tables, and flat gravel and dirt areas for campers, tents or other vehicles. Boat ramp, back on spots for larger campers or RVs. Roads paved all the way to camp. Also 4-5 Sites not as close to river, but near boat ramp. Great Sun Rises and viewing 3-5 barges pass each day, very relaxing camp.

Great lil quiet spot.

Beautiful small park. Great riverside pull thru spots. All spots are sizable. Lots of wildlife. Hosts are very helpful. Off grid and quiet with the occasional boat.

We were looking for a place to overnight. We found this place on the dirt. Full hookups, swimming pool, bath house, dog park, fishing lake, and oh yes! There is a train caboose on site. No real shade, but no matter. LEVEL CONCRETE PAD!

No shade in this side of the park, but no worries. We needed a place to stay for the night and they had an opening with full hook ups. There’s a swimming pool, dog park, and bath house. Not to mention the level concrete pads!

Kids would love the fact that there’s a train caboose on site. Convenient, super easy to find a spot, and the lady in the office is super sweet.

Third time at Millers Ferry! Water & electric hook ups . Good water pressure, dump station on property. Our site was paved and easily accommodated our 40 ft Rv/ fifth wheel & Dooley. Each site has a fire ring/with top grate to grill, picnic table, shepherd hook.Bathroom clean another one under construction. Nice playground. $1 for washer and dryer. Lots of sites are gravel as well, but level. Lots of people fish-parking for trucks & trailers at water ramp on property. No dog park, but lots of nature walks and paved roads to walk on. Oh yes, Lots of mosquitoes & ants, bring bug spray for a more pleasant stay! Shopping in town about 15-20 minutes away. Several good restaurants. There is a Piggly Wiggly, True Value Hardware, and Dollar stores. Approx 20-30 min to Walmart, next town over. Public lake for swimming, on site, with playground!

Our second trip here. We came last April and hammock camped at the same location in #3. This year we have a popup and closer the site with the absolute best views of sunset and sunrise right on the bank of the Tombigbee. The river is much higher than last year due to the recent storms which makes it even more magnificent. Cell phone coverage is still marginal at best but useable for basic data needs. Att is ok, Verizon is marginal, and T-Mobile is emergency calls only.

The are is quiet and gorgeous. Picnic tables rough at the site. I have a cassette toilet, so the “outhouse “ was a perfect spot to empty. My two little dogs loved it.

We had a great time visiting Payne Lake this weekend! We stayed at a primitive campsite with a beautiful view of the lake. 

My biggest advice is to bring. your. own. firewood. As far as we could tell, there was nowhere at the campground to purchase bundles of firewood, and even the local grocery stores/gas stations weren't stocked with any either. We spent quite a bit of time using a hatchet to cut up down trees to fuel our firepit. 

The campground is organized well and we were able to have our pick of campsites (mainly due to the fact that it was 30 degrees the whole weekend). The primitive campsites all had picnic tables and fire pits. Our group also uses hammocks and there were plenty of trees near enough together for hammock hanging. 

When we got to the campground, the check in area is quite simple. There is a box with envelopes/forms to fill out that ask for your payment (in cash!), car information, and site number. Once you fill out your information, you simply drive and park at your campsite. As far as we could tell, each site had ample room for parking 2 cars within 15 feet or so. We paid $6 a night for the site, as well as an extra $3 fee/day because of a third car. 

The area is quiet and peaceful, and the lake is a beautiful spot to catch the sunrise. On the East Side of the lake, we got a large amount of late afternoon sun, but minimal sunshine until later in the morning. The West Side saw a lot of sun early in the morning. 

We got the chance to meet the Camp Host, who was very gracious and also introduced us to his dog, Reecie. He even offered to take our trash out for us!

We took a walk around the entire campground, and it is clear that the West Side of the lake sees more visitors and is generally kept up with more. The blue hiking trail on the East side required quite a bit of bushwhacking and didn't seem to have much upkeep at all. On our hike, we ended up walking the roads of the campsite and seeing the whole grounds.

It was beautiful, quiet, and the lake was perfect. Would definitely go back!

This is one of my favorite places to spend a few days. It is by a beautiful lake and a friendly, well kept campground. It's also close to home so it is easy to run down and get out of town.

Very well kept clean relaxing campground been going here for years.

Concrete pads pool nice friendly staff

Great space between sites, pet friendly, nice bathrooms and showers, friendly and helpful host, clean site with concrete pad and picnic table and fire pit! Water access nearby and fun swimming area and playground! Our family had Lots of fun & We will definitely be back!

Called day of to book a spot and had no trouble getting one. Park was clean, easy to get through, and had full hookups. I had no issues staying here and will stay here again in the future.

Large, well kept sites. Horrible bathrooms a long walk from many sites. If the urge hits, you won't make it. Bring your own if you can.

Very friendly owner. The small sites are perfect for my van. No complaints. Busy for the size, a lot of children and families.

Nice little quiet place. Camp hosts are very nice and helpful. Electric and water at site with dump on property. If you’re interested in fishing it right on the water and I hear it’s good fishing.

Each site is on a level cement pad with full hookups. Only $32 with Good Sam discount.
