About this campground
Chilatchee Creek Campground in Alberta Alabama is a US Corp of Engineers park offering partial and primitive hookup RV and tent camping. Located on its namesake at scenic Dannelly Reservoir in Alabama's Black Prairie Belt. The reservoir sits on the Alabama River and covers roughly 27 square miles, boasting more than 500 miles of shoreline.
The park offers excellent fishing for bass, crappie, bluegill and catfish, and numerous fishing tournaments and annual festivals are held in the immediate area. Whitetail deer and wild turkeys roam the park, creating excellent bow-hunting opportunities.
What campers say
Chilatchee Creek Campground is a quiet, well cared-for Corps site with river views, piers for fishing, and roomy, level campsites shaded by trees. Many visitors note friendly hosts, working laundry, reliable 20/30/50-amp hookups and a dump station; restrooms and showers are older but kept clean. Expect a remote, off-grid feel with limited nearby services — pack supplies. Access includes a rough unpaved approach with occasional potholes, though most say big rigs can get in. Overall it's a peaceful spot for anglers and those seeking a low-key riverside getaway, with the usual tradeoffs of remoteness.
