Twin Forks Campground, near Bear Creek, Alabama, is a peaceful spot that caters to both RV and tent campers looking to unwind by the water. With sites that offer electric and water hookups, you can enjoy the comforts of home while soaking in the natural beauty around you.

This campground is known for its friendly staff and clean facilities, including picnic tables and a couple of bathhouses. Visitors have mentioned that the shaded spots under tall pine trees provide a nice respite from the sun, and many sites boast lovely views of the water. As one camper noted, “The campground is right on the water,” making it a perfect place for fishing or just relaxing by the shore.

For families, there are activities on weekends when the weather cooperates, and a playground at the entrance keeps the kids entertained. If you’re looking to explore, you’ll need a BCDA permit to access the lake and beach area, but it’s a small price to pay for a day of fun in the sun. Just a heads up, there’s no store on-site, but a Dollar General is just a mile away for any last-minute supplies.

While some campers pointed out that the tent sites might not be perfectly level, the overall vibe is friendly and laid-back. Whether you’re planning a weekend escape or a longer stay, Twin Forks Campground offers a great mix of relaxation and outdoor adventure.

Picturesque, reasonably-priced lakeside campground

This city campground has many beautiful lakeside campsites along Bear Creek.  Sites are first-come, first-served.  We camped here in mid-October and had no problems getting a site.  The campground staff were friendly and helpful.

The site is gravel with large wooden beams surrounding it.  We had to put a couple boards under the passenger side tires to level our rig; the site was pretty level from front to rear.  Easy setup.

The campground was quiet during the evenings.  Fire rings are not provided, so bring your own fire pit if you'd like a campfire. 

The park WiFi worked well for us - strong signal, roughly 40mbps download speeds.  Using T-Mobile, we had strong 5G service.

Not a bad place to go for the weekend!

This campground is a nice quiet campground. They have about 90 spots for you to camp which includes primitive spots. The campground is very shaded with tall pine trees, for most of the day depending on what site you are on. Most sites have very nice views of the water also. Most sites a spacious and have plenty of room behind them. There’s several RV sites right on the water and all tent sites are on the water. The tent sites didn’t look to level to me but there were some places that I saw that wasn’t bad. All the approved sites had water and electric hook ups, concrete picnic tables that were on a slab so that didn’t move. One downside was no grills or fire rings at the sites. However previous campers had makeshift rings out of rocks that were at several sites and you can make your own so fires are permitted. They did have a couple of bathhouses which had only one shower for each gender. They did not have doors going into them. Water was hot but no pressure. There was a huge open grass area were all the kids would gather and play. To use the lake or go to the beach area that was down the road you had to purchase a BCDA permit for ages 16-65. $3 a day or $10 for 3 day for each individual. There is a play ground at the entrance that has a pavilion, and a basketball court. There’s a boat ramp at the entrance as well. The dump station and garbage dumpsters are at least a 1/4 mile from any of the sites. There is no store to purchase things but there is a Dollar General about a mile from the campground if you need something. This campground is a first come first serve and do not take reservations, but if you call the day of you can pay over the phone to ensure you have a spot. The attendant was very friendly and helpful. Overall we enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back.

Big campground on the lake

This is a work in progress as I just added this campground and will review as the days progress! So far, it is reasonably priced. It does require a BCDA permit which is $10 a person to make use of the lake and creeks for a three day permit.  The website says the daily rate is $6.  

There are RV plots with electric and water hook-ups and tent camping too. We have an Airstream on one site and three tents on another.

A picnic table is available at each site and campfire spots. Our sites overlook the lake and it is lovely so far. Super busy for the July 4 weekend!
