Best Tent Camping near Notasulga, AL

Tent camping with family during Hurricane evacuation. Beautiful park, numerous bath houses, laundry, camp store, playgrounds, mini golf, and so much more. Secluded campground with RV and tent sites right on Lake Martin.

Parked late one afternoon to get a driving break in road trip. Tent camping from dusk till dawn was peaceful. Lots of areas to climb though the trails.

Secluded and quiet, but 10 minutes from anything you forgot to bring. Ideal for RV'ing, this place is good for picnics, hiking, or just peaceful reflection. Tent camping is also available.

We tent camped on site 14 Spring 2017. Big campground with lots of lake front sites or views. Bath house was clean. Very relaxing and spacious sites that are spread out! We will be back!

Super well maintained tent sites. The tent footprint is elevated by railroad ties, preventing flooding and it made it very convenient to put my boots on in the morning. Established trash/food hang poles as well as picnic tables next to the fire ring with fold over grill capabilities.

I am rather new to tent camping so I really appreciated the helpful folks running the camping area.  Each spot had electricity, water, great internet, picnic table and places to build a fire.  Each site is shielded from the next by trees.  Bathrooms and showers are used but clean.  Clear maps available for hiking or biking.  Nice lake with swimming and boating.  Pet friendly.  Could not have asked for more or better.

We stayed at tent site 63. Park is very well maintained. Camp hosts were especially accommodating and helped us get a great spot without reservations on Labor day weekend. Our site was right on the waterfront with plenty of firewood available in the surrounding woods. Not all bath houses have showers but they were all well maintained. We would definitely go again!

Nice hiking trails here. Mountain biking is also allowed on many of the trails. Trails are along the lake, along the creek, and in the woods. Trail map is well done and helpful. Easy to get to this state park that is not far from interstate hwy I-85 near Auburn, AL. Some pictures attached taken while hiking and sight seeing. Both RV camping and primitive tent camping can be done here. Cabins/cottages can also be rented.

This place was awful. We pulled into our “camping spot” and pulled right back out. It was packed in like sardines and even if we were not in a pandemic, it was too crowded. Not exactly camping. It’s just a spot on a over crowded lake to park you’re RV. Do not expect to tent camp here. The staff was super helpful and very polite though, which is why I am not giving it one star.

I stayed here in my NoBo 16.2 camper for almost 6 weeks waiting on a house. The site is clean. Cable, electric, water and sewer. The wifi has been out for a while. Tent sites and cabins also available. Lots of wildlife. If you're into C130s flying over due to being in close proximity to the US Army Airborne School, this is the place for you.

This is an okay campground but really caters to RVs. There's a whole lot of concrete, perfect for recreational vehicles but not so much for tent or hammock campers. It's more of an RV resort of sorts.

Tent sites are cheap at $5/night but you're limited to only 7 nights. Which probably won't matter to a tent camper here, as I would think being here for that long would be a bit much.

There are a ton of amenities here, including an old softball field turned into a dog park of sorts. There is a nice little lake but that's about it in terms of 'natural' amenities. Okay spot if you just need a place to stay the night but I wouldn't prolong a visit here. Also sort of loud given its close proximity to the train tracks.

Clean and quiet. Great amenities. Get any size rv in the spaces. Tent sights. Very clean bathhouse.

Mostly RV’s but two different open fields for tent-hammock camping. Potable water, small store and pool on the grounds. Quite campground.

State park. Very pretty and lots of trees. Camp with all amenities (a bit pricey) or with no hook ups. Lots to do. Family oriented. Lots of trees and lots of waterfront lots on the shores of one of Alabamas most beautiful lakes.

Lots of campsites, fishing, pavillions and bath houses. Sites for tents and RV's. Conveniently located near Alexander City in case you forgot anything. Loaded with activities for the whole family, fishing, water sports, hiking, geocaching, or just relaxing in the shade, this place has pretty much everything.

This is a good fishing destination. Campground has a sandbox and playground but for a little more you can get a hotel room. Boat rentals available for fishing and close to the museum of wonder in seale, alabama

Overall: Excellent campground with close access to the Chattahoochee River, access off AL State Rd 165. The sites are, for the most part, reasonably private with most sites being right on the water and have excellent views of Bluff Creek. Some of the campground areas were closed for the season as traffic falls off quite a bit in the Fall. Most of the campers had RVs, but there were one or two tents as well 

Getting there: Known as Bluff Creek Park on Google maps, it is located South of Fort Benning and Fort Mitchell in the most Eastern part of Alabama. 

Check in and staff: Check in was very easy and one can make advance reservations. We were allowed to take a quick tour to pick out a site, but did have to call the central number to pay by credit card once we had picked out a site. They have stopped putting up a note on each site and now simply issue a parking pass for your vehicle. I did have to go back to the gate to get that and while doing that the reservation was verified.  The staff were kind and very pleasant. 

Amenities: There is a boat launch site, a fish cleaning hut, and multiple bathroom facilities. Water and electric are present at each site. 

Bathrooms: clean, well kept. Laundry machines available. The showers had plenty of hot water and were clean. No mold or mildew. 

Site: We had site 81. It was right on the water. There was a good size picnic table and another square table at the site. The fire pit was out near the water and there was a stand up BBQ as well. Also provided was a hanging hook for provisions. The campground was very quiet, but in the evening one often heard the chimes of a RR crossing that is just outside the park entrance. The chimes& red flashing lights go on after dark when a car approaches the tracks to make sure that the driver stops and checks for train. There are occasional low flying airplanes due to the nearby military fort.
