The only negative issue is not very many of the sites are even close to level. One family member's site was 2" off left to right and 6" front to back.

Nice and quiet, well maintained
@BrentP2965519 · Camped on Sep 26, 2025 at Campsite #E12
Very good spot to camp the view is great. Note: There is little room for a tent on level ground and it would be hard to back a camper into the spot. Because of this, choose spots 11 or 13 as they have more room.

This campground is in a quiet location which some camp sites close to the water and with a good host who was prompt to greet us on arrival and help us find our spot. Beware that some of the campsites away from the water are on the side of the hill with a very steep slope to back up to get into the site. However, the site itself was reasonably level. condition of the site itself was good. There were a lot of downed trees in the area close to the sites but the sites themselves were clear. The last stretch road to the campground is a very steep downhill to watch out for. The dump site was level and worked well for emptying the tanks. There was good shade.

Lovely little campground. Spaces were well situated with lake views. Bathrooms were clean and well stocked. Bonus - there is a playground for the kiddos.

Piney Bay Campground is a great little escape on the water between Russellville and Clarksville. The proximity to the water is what keeps us coming back. It is the perfect place to camp out and kayak and swim. The facilities are always clean and the staff is friendly. Check out Piney Paddles for kayak rentals on the bay!

This was our 1st time to camp at Piney Bay. Pros: Spacious campsites, clean campground, clean bathrooms. Flat camper pads. The view of the beach and lake were great! Cons: we are tent campers. No tent pads or level spots for the tent. We ended up putting the tent on the camper pad. No convenient place to fill water jugs. The spicket was too close to the ground to get a bucket under. We had a great time!!
@ClaytonL366823 · Camped on Aug 1, 2025 at Campsite #B27
Great park, good swimming area, quite at night. Campsite are well spaced. Rangers and Park attendants are very friendly with good information. Great place for families and friends!!
@AmandaC6826113 · Camped on Jul 17, 2025 at Campsite #B21
Always a great experience at Piney Bay!
@KerwynnB893628 · Camped on Jul 11, 2025 at Campsite #E8
Only few campers were there and so it made a very quiet and peaceful time. We drove to one of Eden Waterfall and enjoyed our hike in tge morning. We also took a 30 minute trip to Russelville and visited the Kaleidoclasm Art Gallery. I recommend going, the artist Daniel, was friendly and shared his art journey with us. We also visited the state park in Russelville and went to the visitor center and watched a documentary on the trail of tears.

Great park enjoyed it greatly
@MaryC1377445 · Camped on Jun 29, 2025 at Campsite #B14
Beautiful location with campsites right on the water! People were very friendly with many families. Super helpful camp hosts. Bathrooms were not the nicest but everything was functional and there were hot showers. It was very warm and humid but the shade from trees in most campsites helped immensely.
@TyrellPF6DD86D · Camped on Jun 26, 2025 at Campsite #B18
Nice shady sites, reasonably level.
@JohnnieS948800 · Camped on Jun 18, 2025 at Campsite #B17
We love camping at Piney Bay, great fishing, nice camp hosts, clean and well maintained but most of all beautiful sunsets.
@ANNW8257673 · Camped on Jun 13, 2025 at Campsite #B24
Sites are unkeeped with limbs, dirt. The fire ring looked like it had not been cleaned out in years. Why not hire someone to maintain these sites? Shoreline is overgrown . I have been coming here for 45 years and it is the worst I have seen it
@MichaelH990269 · Camped on Jun 12, 2025 at Campsite #B26
The grass needed mowing, there were limbs down in several places, the park was very quiet though.
@RyanK6503156 · Camped on Jun 6, 2025 at Campsite #G1
We loved our location (G1), the park was clean including the bathrooms and swim beach area. Staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend.

I just used PerfectCamp.com to book six consecutive August nights at the most popular campsite in one of the most popular campgrounds in Humboldt Redwoods State Park in California. That is not anything I could have accomplished anywhere else with the ease I did here! Thank you, PerfectCamp! I LOVE this site! You will find me on several other camping sites but the design, format, functionality, and personality of this the best. It’s fresh and clean.

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
