Situated atop northeast Alabama’s Lookout Mountain, Desoto State Park is a 3,500-acre nature preserve and recreation destination that features vibrant forests, gushing waterfalls, and rugged mountain scenery. The park is located 8 miles northeast of Fort Payne, and approximately 75 miles east of Huntsville making it a great place camping near Atlanta. Dedicated in 1939, the park was named after Hernando de Soto, the renowned 16th century explorer. Prior to its dedication, most of the park’s roads, trails and facilities were constructed through the 1930s by the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC), a Depression-era works program that improved many of the country’s parks and forests, while providing jobs and skills to millions of struggling Americans. The park boasts many local legends, including one that suggests that the area may have been settled by Welsh explorers, centuries before Columbus’s arrival in the New World. Visitors are invited to learn more about DeSoto State Park by camping in the park.
The campground at DeSoto State Park features 94 full-hookup sites for tent and RV campers. Sites have either back-in or pull-through parking pads, and can accommodate large vehicles/trailers. Each site is equipped with picnic tables and cooking grills, and there are two comfort stations available with restrooms, showers and laundry facilities. A dump station is located onsite. The park also has a primitive tent campground that offers 16 sites with fire pits. Picnic tables, cooking grills, potable water, trash receptacles, and vault toilets are located in this campground’s central area. There are also two primitive backpacker camps with sleeping shelters and fire pits, but no water or trash service. In addition to camping, the park also offers a variety of chalets, cabins and motel rooms for those less interested in roughing it. Other amenities include picnic areas, an outdoor pool, tennis courts, and a playground. Campsite rates range from $15–$36/night, plus fees; other accommodation rates vary.
Visitors will find a variety of seasonal activities to enjoy at DeSoto State Park, from hiking and fishing to geocaching and zip-lining. Start your visit by checking out the CCC Museum and Benefield Interpretive Center to learn about the park’s history, flora and fauna. Drop into the country store and purchase a trail map for the park’s 30 miles of hiking and biking paths. Trails range in distance and difficulty, so there’s a path for everyone. There’s even a barrier-free boardwalk trail. Swimming, fishing and kayaking can be enjoyed on the West Fork Little River, which runs right through the park. The park also hosts guided hikes, campfire programs, and community events. Thrill-seekers can get a bird’s eye view over the park on the Aerial Adventure zipline course, which includes six ziplines and seven sky bridges, and golfers can tee off at the DeSoto Golf Course, just a few miles south of the park.

Fort Mountain State Park is a place of legends. Literally! Home to an mysterious, ancient, rock wall at the peak of a mountain, Fort Mountain’s associated legends include the construction of a Welsh military fort, a honeymoon destination for native newlyweds, and a relation to “moon-eyed people” of Cherokee folklore. Whatever the truth may be, there is no denying that this park’s unique features have made it one of the major draws within the Chattahoochee National Forest.
Located just a short scenic drive off of Highway 52 near the Cohuatta Wilderness, the campground at Fort Mountain State Park hosts 70 campsites for tents and RVs. Campers can bring their paddles to take advantage of all 17 acres of Fort Mountain Lake, or take part in the local rental program for easier travels.
While there is no need to leave the park to find adventure, many campers take a short drive east to a historic site featuring the Chief Vann House. This well-preserved structure was the first Cherokee brick residence and is often referred to as the “showplace” of the Cherokee Nation. Continue your travels to the peak of Fort Mountain where you can take a tour of a stone fire tower built by the Civilian Conservation Corps during the Great Depression. Enjoy panoramic views and marvel at the legendary beauty of Fort Mountain State Park.

I called and was told this is a membership ONLY campground resort! Please delete this resort
I didn’t get the chance to have an experience because they would not even rent to me because I have mixed breed rescue dogs.
Great location near I-75. Just stayed for a quick overnight.
This place did not disappoint. Wife and I were wanting to stay at Desoto State Park but it was full. The husband and wife duo that owns this took us in and treated us like royalty. They looked after us and even stayed up all night to help everyone watch the weather during a tornado watch. RV spots were very shady from all the trees and super quiet. Beautiful piece of property. Bath houses kept hot water too!
This is a beautiful place. If you’re looking for more primitive and secluded places to camp this place is mainly for POEPLE with rvs.
What a beautiful place. Stayed the weekend and hit almost all of the trails, saw 4 waterfalls and so many amazing rock formations. There are three trailheads that leave directly from the campground, which is a well-kept and clean place with well spaced sites. The upper loop is on a hill, but the sites are spaced out slightly more than the lower loop. The lower loop was more level and a bit newer. The best sites are in the 60s on the outer part of the lower loop. Just a wonderful place to spend a weekend.
Great place to camp near the cloudland canyon. The campsite 8 that we camped on was far from parking and restroom, so you might wanna choose the sites near to parking. Be prepared to carry things for quite a walk. Bring something to carry water to your site from water filling station near the restrooms. But, the campsites are well spaced so you will have the privacy you need. There are lots of beautiful hiking places nearby.
Stayed two nights, had a great time. Plenty to do all close by, as well as a few comforts to make the time easier if you want them.
Very peaceful and clean park.
Good site. Ground is slanted but the walk was easy. Our 4 year old had no issue and neither did I even with a pack and being 4 months pregnant
This place seems to have it all. The hikes are diverse from walking along the edge of a canyon with beautiful vistas to trekking through the gulch with canyon walls towering overhead. The waterfalls are beautiful too although they were all but non-existent after the recent dry weather. The campsites offer good privacy with clean facilities.
Small spots right on the water with a friendly staff and lots of peace. My family and I will be back often
I gave my transmission a work out climbing up the mountain to get here. Site 49 was a beautiful lakefront site with the lake trail conveniently next to my site. W/E only, dumpsite outside the campground. Hiking trails accessible from the campground. Bears were active in the area. Lots to do nearby, but the surroundings were so beautiful, we really enjoyed just being in the campground.
This a gated park. Owners take you to your site. Park has many trails for you to hike. Owners and staff are very friendly.
Recent updates, nice pads, full hookups, good cell service
Clean place with very friendly staff. Lots of hiking trails. Bath house was clean unsure about water quality
This is one of our favorite state parks in Alabama to camp at and is amazing when you visit in the spring and see all the wildflowers. There are also so many great places to swim when it gets hot including DeSoto Falls and the stream that runs through the park.
We stayed M-F; the park was 70% ish occupied; lots of great hikes, although most of the water falls were dry 🤷🏼♂️. #seasonal. Paddled above DeSoto Falls on the Little River. Mostly cooked out, but a lunch visit to the Wildflower in Mentone is worth it.
Our first time at Walk in camp #14
So quiet, many trails, native blueberries in season. Easy to get to campground, navigate to our site and exit to dump site. Our can site was spacious, clean and so quiet.
Camped at site 19 of the walk-in campground. The campsites close to parking and fairly close, I chose site 19 because it is a bit of a walk and more private. I could not see any other campers from campsite. During the week I had the back section all to myself. There is a stream flowing by the campsite so I could hear the water flowing, nice and relaxing. Hiking trail runs from campsite to the main trails for plenty if beautiful hiking and waterfalls to enjoy.
 our site was not clean. There was trash and a dirty fire ring.  Trails are really nice but the campground is in need of maintenance. 
Banning Mills has 2 parks. 1 that central based are ziplines..90 of them. Great place for the kids or adults who are still kids... Then there's the camp grounds that's about a mile down the road. Very impressive. 1st thing you'll notice is the key card you get at the main office. It opens up these huge Gothic iorn gates. If you don't have a key your not driving in. All the campsites are set back in the woods at different elevations and really cool. It took us about 6 months to get in here. Long waiting list. The rent was $500 a month for a 50amp spot. They have pools and hiking and fishing and zip lines and the tallest man made rock climbing wall...over 100ft tall. They have paddle boats, canoes, fish, snakes, mosquitoes... All.n.all great place. We went during the height of covid 19 so the morning buffet they have was diminished to a plate of food. Cool place.
we stayed in a tent site in dec '22'' , the sites are very close together and the tent site we were on hardly had enough space for our 3 person backpacking tent . there are fire pits, grills, and tables available on each site as well as water . we appreciated the security gate and extremely clean and heated bathhouses with showers . the park has a nice playground and a pool we were unable to try during the winter months . the campground is very close to town and as so expect alot of noise from traffic
Camped for two nights before heading to the smokies. Great trails, beautiful scenes, lots of space at outside loop sites. Plenty of wildlife that are around the campground including deer, gray fox, and fox squirrels. Bathhouses clean and staff friendly.
It was a great place. Owners were super nice. Easy to get to local places. Lots of hiking and off roading for 4 wheels drives. WiFi/ Cell not great, but could text out. Shower/ bathroom clean. If you want to get away this is your place. Foliage was still pretty, but would have been better end of October.
Wooded tent and RV sites that are very nice and well spaced out to give plenty of privacy. This area also has yurts available that are set up with beds and heating/AC so they make a good option in the hot months. Lots of great hiking and views on this side of the canyon and it also tends to be a little less crowded.
