There is no pool but the kids didn’t seem to mind bc there is a swimming area in the lake by the bank. Also there is no fire pit on the sites so bring one if you plan on building a campfire. Swimming is the only real activity to do on sight. That and fishing obviously. Sites were cleaned and well maintained. No problems to report. Place is affordable. We only wish they rented pontoons. That would be nice.

We had a great time here. Wish there was a swimming pool but the kids don’t seem to mind as there is a swimming area in the lake. They loved it. Great campground.

$44 a night for the lake view and $30 for other. Bathhouse and laundry room nearby. Very beautiful place and fishing allowed.

Well been coming here for the past 7 years, it's been really good. Now they have a new owner, the rule changes are a little much. We have always brought our boat with us. So now they charge you extra for 50 amp, can't leave your boat on your site. Must park it in a lot, at 5 dollars and you have to pay each time you launch it. Called and made a reservation for specific site, paid ahead. When we arrived they had rented the spot I reserved. Money money money, I know they need to make it. Just not all from a couple of customers.

Nice family atmosphere. Mostly adults and couples, but there were some children. Everyone is very friendly and welcoming. There are long term residents but they are very friendly towards the short term visitors. Bathhouses extremely clean. Great convenience having a shop and laundromat at the entrance

Love living here such a great place to visit and live. Well now not such a good place the new owner bill is a very hard person to have to deal with and the maintenance man Rowland has been known to run off guest and calls the cops all the time.so watch out.. when going there if you get a little loud and the cops are called you move out.would not waste my time setting up in there you will not last in and they don't drug test the maintenance men randomly .so u are on your own out there so just watch what's going on around you and have a good day

It’s a nice enough place (not top notch, I suspect due to the Marina). Trees need some trimming. Couldn’t get the canopy out. Nice store for goods. Cable had no end and it seemed to paralyze the place. Office blamed the cable company (kind of a stupid thing to do). I ultimately went down to ACE and bought a screw on 75 ohm connector and fixed it myself. Overall, an OK place. We’ll try another place if we return.

Fished Saturday was hard to find parking and lot doesn’t support many boaters . Wife and I used bathrooms, disgusting isn’t the word. Was informed after taking out that they were towing vehicles with any Warning ! Boaters beware if coming to this landing, I’ll not be back !

Had small club tournament there Friday 11/15/19. Been coming for years. But, a club member truck & trailer towed for parking next to 8’ high chain link fence with NO Gate to access That Storage area on other side of launch fence. Yes, signs said “Storage area” no park we could figure that out but No Accessible from Boat Parking side figures ok. Oh, No, gotta tow! Here is suggestions for improvements to owners. 1) don’t sell but 10 boat launch passes cause only 10 can launch and park safely. Don’t take 20 five dollar bills from honest fishermen who call ahead. Then, tow when!!!! Over sold!!! Post that on both sides of your 8’ chain link fence gates going into boat ramp parking area then y’all will not have anymore trouble Or confusing thoughts. I am a Republican and have been for 60 years. Must be A set up opportunities for tow company & owners or camping business side. Y’all, can understand now why a masters degree Republicans who fishing there for years and called ahead are Not coming back and spreading the word about this shady operations. Or at best confusing signs & fences now smoke that big daddy’s!

The lake is stunning! The showers are awful! The owner has put in shower faucets that are like public bathroom sinks. You push them on and they turn off by themselves in 5 seconds! If you want a normal shower you have to push the knob again and again and again! I've been to a lot of parks and I'm sure water costs are high, but no-one has handled it this way. No thanks.

Our bass fishing club uses this launch maybe once per year. Its an adequate, convenient location but recently we had some members that we treated rudely.||This year, the launch parking area has been fenced and gated. It holds about 12 truck and trailers(maybe) that are unmarked parking spots. So we parked in the area the best we could fit. They will sell passes all day long without limiting the passes sold to the number of boat trailer spots. So, that makes you guess in the dark where to park safely. Today one of members arrives back at the launch and they have towed his truck and trailer that was inside the boat launch fence and not obstructing any right of ways. I launched after all the members had left and was approached by a rude elderly man that said he was going to tow my vehicle if I didn’t move it( I was getting the boat ready to launch out of the right of way in the fenced in lot. (When I let the that afternoon a single truck and trailer was left in the lot in the exact location that this elderly man had threatened me.) Not sure what is going on at Lakeside Marina in Pell City but BOATERS BEWARE! Hopefully our club and others will find a safer and more pleasant boat launch areas to conduct our business.||I have taken the time to look at past reviews in other social media post to discover this has been happening over the last year.

Nice place for family meet ups and fishing. Bathrooms clean, laundry mat on site. Boat launch. Fairly convenient. Great lake access.

Not the nicest park ever but certainly very nice. Extremely friendly staff and very convenient with gas and nice convenience store right there. Also really cool to have a lake right there. Would highly recommend this place. Nice and level, more shade would be nice but then again trees don’t overnight. Would definitely stay again.

We always stayed here when we go to Florida each year. I've always enjoyed our stay. Plenty of places to park with no reservations. Great view across the lake.
