We were there during the annual Halloween celebration, but during the week it was very quiet. We got in good walks, saw quite a few tows & barges, visited with some interesting campers, and had no unpleasant encounters with loose dogs

We had an overall good stay at Town Creek. The gate attendants were very pleasant; Michael is outstanding and we hope he'll be there forever. He makes folks toe the line but does it in a kind and instructional manner.
We did have trouble, twice, with pairs of uncontrolled dogs literally chasing us across the campground road and into open space beyond. We love to walk in this park, as we do at home, but the dogs made us fearful for most of our stay. Michael did successfully address the problem, but ... We did notice a fair amount of "litter" along campground roads and, before we left, we picked up the butts and other small trash that had been on our camping spot when we arrived. We did not want the next camper to think WE were not responsible.
The river sites, which were re-habbed a year ago, were more "back to normal" than we expected. We enjoy camping where we can watch the traffic on the Tenn-Tom, the main reason we camp here.
We wish Town Creek could once again be open in the winter - we camped here in the winter regularly between 2000 and 2011, but maybe costs make it impractical.
We would also like to see more ranger presence - missed that.

We were only passing through, but upon arriving we wished we had more time to stay. Park was very clean, our site was very level concrete right next to the water. Such a beautiful place. Wish we would have had more time.

Always a pleasure to camp here. Park hosts are friendly and helpful. Sites are clean and well kept. Bath houses are tidy. Plenty of room and wonderful views since the river bank has been cleaned off more. Very peaceful.

The Town Creek Campground was well kept. The Park Hosts were friendly and accommodating.
Since what we sought was a quiet tent camping experience enjoying God's creation, midweek was a great time for us!

Town Creek Campground has been a favorite local getaway spot of ours for several years. We always reserve one of the river-front sites so that we can watch the barge and boat traffic go by. FYI, I don't believe we've ever even camped in any of the non-riverfront sites! Regardless of location, all of the sites are generally spacious and well-maintained. There are plenty of roads and trails to ride bikes on, and there are hiking trails as well. A playground and ball court are available for the kids. Unfortunately, TC-CG is closed from November until maybe March; we think it's to avoid having hunting parties camping there, but who knows? (One year while we were there in late fall, hunters had come in and were actually dressing out their kills - deer - at their campsites. This was not something I wanted or needed to see while on my camping weekend.) All in all, Town Creek makes for a relaxing weekend or week. It's away from town, yet it's only 10-15 minutes to town if you want to run in to eat or pick up something you forgot to bring.
