North east trails are closed but still plenty of trails left to enjoy. Well maintained rolling trails. Must use the temporary parking lot about .3 miles before you get to the main parking area. Trail Forks shows the location of the parking lot.

Was a great stay for us back in 2021. We bought corn for one of the groundskeepers who kept the ducks and geese fed. Small park, but was quiet and relaxing which is just what we needed.

Good park for hiking or camping. You will pay a fee to enter the park. All the park employees we encountered were friendly and helpful. The trails could use more places to rest. The trails are lenghty so take plenty of water and energy snacks with you. A lot of wildlife which was a bonus.

Great for hiking, fishing and camping. Beautiful views of the lake. This location offers different types of boat rentals for your pleasure. Be aware that this campground will be closing as of December 1 for a 100% remodel. Expected to be closed for a year, but hopefully sooner. After these renovations, it will be five stars hands down!

Beautiful park on Lake Lurleen. The one problem we found was that the site is very uneven and were not able to get the rig level. We looked around the campground to find any sites that seemed more level but didn’t see any. Otherwise, it’s a nice place to camp. Very shady sites, so our Starlink didn’t work as well as usual. We had a full hook up site and everything worked just fine.

Lake Lurleen is so beautiful and tranquil with stunning views. We were very impressed with the ease of parking our camper. Peacful place to fish. Also, it is a great place to camp if you are going to a University of Alabama game. We will definitely be back!

This park is immaculate! Gorgeous setting for RV with a lot of mountain bike trails. They are marked very well too! This is a definite must stop campground.

Great Alabama Park. Small. Quiet. Lake for swimming in summer, Fall. Clean. Fishing, camping, RV, tents. BbQ. Walk trails. Quiet get-away from stress. Stay away here and visit Tuscaloosa area or Birmingham for restaurants, college sports, malls. 2022 World Games in Birmingham.

Loved this campground, very spacious, clean bathroom and bathhouse. Many trails to hike also. I absolutely love the old time playground myself, brought back many memories. They do have a newer playground also

This sweet little park is sadly neglected. Crumbling roads, crumbling pads. Half of the sites have the electric hook up on the curb side. The pull through sites are just wide spots in the road. Everything is outdated and done on the cheep. But I still like this park and it has potential. It was quiet at night. But for $170 per week it was a disappointment. Deerlick Creek is close and much cheaper. Leave Lake Lurleen to the full time campers who live there.

Nice place to go for the weekend but they need to update the camp sites

This is a very nice park only about 9 miles from Tuscaloosa Alabama. It’s a great place to go hiking, mountain biking, boating and fishing. In the summer they have a nice swimming beach. We spent a beautiful day there today canoeing. The one thing that absolutely drives me nuts about the park however, is that as you drive in the entrance, the first thing you see is a line of recreational vehicles. It is so ugly! Why do they need to be parked here? If they have to rent out a place for these RVs, I wish they would do it a little bit out of sight. Otherwise, this is a very nice park, and they rent kayaks, paddle boats, and canoes. Those are very popular. The price was right. Normally it is four dollars a person, or two dollars for seniors.
