Pickensville Campground

"We just stayed at this campground for the third time. It is our favorite halfway stop on the way to visiting family, so we usually only stay a night at a time. One of the things we love the most about this campground is that the spots are so spacious. We also love the nature setting. The boardwalks over the water are so pretty to walk over. Would definitely recommend staying here. No complaints."

"I don’t think there’s a “bad” site in the park! Huge back yards, plenty of play space. Something to see and explore everywhere. Excellent for biking and walking. Several FHU sites and riverfront sites with active traffic- barges, fishing boats and leisure craft. Several active and accessible camp hosts. All sites are pretty level. Few nearby attractions and shopping."

"We were Tourists from Germany on a road trip through the country and stopped here for a night. The Staff was incredibly nice and welcoming, they had a chat with us when we arrived and were very interested in our trip and why we came to Pickensville at all. One of them even drove around in his golf car and stopped at every site to ask if everything was alright. They are really nice people who care about every guest they have. The Campsites are great and clean, so were the Restrooms and showers. Thats even more worth mentioning because they had to close the Campground because of a flood last year. We really had a great stay here, nice people, clean Campsites and Bath houses and a beautiful nature close to the river. Defenitely one of the best Campgrounds we have been to in the US so far. I recommend this place to everybody who has a chance to visit. Greetings from Germany!"

"Spent 3 nights here at the end of August, and definitely enjoyed it. The hosts were extremely gracious and helpful. Thanks to them, we took a bike ride over to the lock/dam. Truly enjoyed the scenery and the exercise. There were sections of the Campground that were fairly deserted, and we were surprised by that. It really is a great place. Our site, Number 114, was ok, though we were a bit disappointed that there was so much growth between us and the river. As a result, it's not what we would consider a water view site. Before we checked out on Monday, we saw the housekeeping and landscaping crews come by to keep everything in order. We didn't use the bath house since our site had full hook ups, but checked it out and found it to be fine for those who might want or need to use it. It's only a few minutes to a nearby town where you can find a Dollar General in case you forgot to pack something. Overall, we enjoyed our time there, and will definitely go again."

"The campground is huge and very nice. Large wooded and level sites. It’s very well maintained, bath houses are clean and the staff was great. There are several sites on the river which most people prefer. But we camped on Sweet Gum loop on the Clear lake side. We were the only ones on that loop. It was so quiet. All you hear are the sounds of nature. The cypress trees are beautiful and lots of wild life to see. There are a couple walkways across the lake and a couple of piers as well. While biking we saw several deer and several birds. The Tom Bevill Lock and Dam is only about 3 miles from the campground it’s an easy bike ride. The road is not busy at all. Across the river is the Visitor Center there you can tour the beautiful home and the U.S. Snagboat Montgomery at no charge."
