Forkland Campground

Nothing wrong with the camp, we would have stayed longer, but we needed cell service for work.
Sites 1-32 are on the water and have access to the creek for boating & fishing, but have no view.
Sites 33-42 are in the woods and seem more private. They were empty when we were there early in the season, and looked a little overgrown still.
Our site was set up backwards, so that the pull in left the awning on the wrong side for the patio. We would have needed to either back in, or drive the loop and pull in on the way out. Really not worth it for 1 night

A bit off the beaten path, Forkland Campground is operated by the Army Corps of Engineers and features paved, level sites and a paved road tightly flanked by trees. Front loop back-in sites had views of the river and were closer to the bathhouse and laundry. Pull-through sites at the back loop were heavily wooded and quiet, but had easier access.

Being new to trailer towing we had trouble getting into our initial back-in site (Site 24) because of the trees across the road. The very friendly and helpful hosts switched us to Site 27 and gave us a hand backing in. Lovely quiet spot. Watched beaver (huge!) working on their dam.

The park has some of the best designed showers we've seen. Instant hot water, very private, and you step out onto a mat that drains away the water so you're not stepping onto dirty, slippery tile as with most parks. We liked it.

Quiet and secluded campground. Hosts were friendly. Campground is well maintained and clean. TV reception over the air was extremely limited. Cell phone service was One Bar (Verizon). Has nature trail, boat ramp, and wooden stairs that provide access from the campground to McConnico Creek. The creek leads to the Tombigbee River. Plenty of birds for those who enjoy bird watching and photography. Saw Bluebirds, Wood Peckers, Snowy Egrets, Great Blue Heron, and many more. Heard Turkeys when walking the nature trail.
