Best RV Parks & Resorts near Tennessee-Tombigbee Waterway

Several RV campgrounds surround the Tennessee-Tombigbee Waterway area with varying amenities. The Oaks RV Park provides full hookup sites with electric, sewer, and water connections, along with sanitary dump stations and trash collection. Browns RV Park in Columbus offers big-rig friendly spots with 50-amp electric service and water hookups. "The sites are paved, large and very easy to back into. We have stayed at #43, #41, #1, #31 and #35 and we love them all," noted one camper about Lake Lowndes State Park, which provides RV camping with lake views. Sunset RV in Cottondale features big-rig accommodations with full hookups including 50-amp service and shower facilities.

Seasonal popularity affects availability at waterfront sites, particularly during fall when many RV enthusiasts visit the region. Most campgrounds around the waterway require reservations, especially on weekends. Cell service can be inconsistent throughout the area, with one visitor mentioning "no cell phone signal for Verizon once you entered the park" at Lake Lowndes. Corps of Engineers campgrounds like Dewayne Hayes offer half-price camping for America the Beautiful pass holders, and many sites provide direct views of the waterway where travelers can watch barges passing. Campground access roads are typically paved, though some interior roads may be gravel, and most parks accommodate pets with specific restrictions.

    Bama RV Station

    Good For Quick Overnight Stay

    Literally right off the interstate at Tuscaloosa. Much lower noise level than I expected. Definitely a parking lot, without trees. We are in site 9, pretty level gravel site, electric and water hookup only. 2 dump stations are available, 2 dog parks. 30 dollars a night. Mostly long term parking. No firepits or picnic tables. Check in by phone, no office.

    Deerlick Creek

    Awesome little campground

    Nice level concrete pads with awesome shade. Bath house stayed clean. Nice 1/2 mile asphalt bike/walking trail. Hiking trail with hills and valleys skirting the lake. Boat ramp with easy access to the lake. Convenient access to Tuscaloosa for supplies, eating or just a change of scenery. Some site are smaller than others and some are pull through. Highly recommend.

    Sunset RV

    Bright light and road noise

    Stopped for an overnight on our way home to Atlanta from a trip out west. Not much of a park. Most sites are long term or semi permanent. Only 6 available for regular RV. Water, 30/50 amp electric & sewer There is a small laundry room The office wasn’t open but we had reservations and had received an email about our site and directions. WiFi was poor. It is right off of I-20 so there was lots of road noise all night. There was a very bright vapor light above our site that lit up the whole area. There is a small dog walking area.

    Moundville Archaeological Park Univ of Alabama

    I love this place. If you are into ancient Indian mounds and seeing the artifacts they have collected this is a place you want to visit.

    Small well appointed museum to see. Information panels at the important mounds. Since we visited last year some improvements have been made to the camp sites. Level sites. 4 pull through with full hook ups for bigger rigs. This is a small campground, all sites have water and electricity with dump site as you leave camping area. Also much needed improvements to bath house.

    Jennings Ferry

    Nice small COE park

    Close to my home base. Nice level site. Clean. Friendly hosts. One mile from small store with essentials. 7 miles from supermarket. No bad sites here. #22 gets satellite year round. Fish from site #13. Only reason for 4 stars is no FHU’s. Be sure to try the food at Roebuck Landing restaurant (1 mile away).

    Forkland Campground

    Nice wooded campground

    This was a pretty cool campground tucked away in the woods. Our site was shady most of the day and well spaced from other sites. Some sites have stairs to the water, to a beach big enough for one person to fish or to tie up a jon boat.

    There is no firewood for sale here. The bathrooms were very clean and a laundry room (closed due to COVID). Lots of fireflies and some mean mosquitoes. Early in the morning you can see some huge paddlefish jumping in the water.

    30 and 50 amp power, water hookup (be sure to have a pressure regulator) and the dump station is in the middle of the campground.

    Moundville Archaeological Park

    Great campground with lots of history

    This is a great campground managed by the University of Alabama. It is on the site of the Moundville Indian mound complex, from the Mississippian period.

    There are several camp sites, most with electric and water, some have sewer. There is a central bath house, which is closed in winter. However the campground is open all year. There is a dump station as well.

    The museum is very interesting and the park offers several events throughout the year based on Native American culture.

    Pickensville Campground

    Nice Campground

    We visit Pickensville Campground a lot because my MIL lives in Pickensville down the road from the campground. Friendly staff. We stayed at site 126. It was on the river across from the bathrooms. Site we stayed at had power and water hookups. They have a community dumping station. I think some of the sites have sewer hookup but ours didn’t.

    Lake Lurleen State Park Campground

    Great park just needs a little updating

    Decent state park hosted by always friendly staff. Large swim beach with bath house and a few small playgrounds scattered throughout. several pavilions that can be reserved for parties. 4 camping sections with power and water, plus a primitive area. only about half have sewer, and even less have 50amp service. sewer sites are near the front of the campground, and one dump station near the back.

    campsite sizes vary, and it can be difficult to find a site for larger campers. utility connections aren't always in the most appropriate spot (often need water hose or power cable of 25ft+) most sites do offer plenty of shade or a view of the lake.
