Chilatchee Creek Campground sits on the shoreline of William "Bill" Dannelly Reservoir, a broad reach of the Alabama River that covers roughly 27 square miles and weaves more than 500 miles of shoreline through the Black Prairie Belt. The site feels like a transition from open prairie to mixed hardwood and pine forest: low rolling hills and rich dark soils give way to creekside trees and long water views where anglers cast for bass, crappie, bluegill and catfish.










Length limits vary by campsite.
Dump station on site.

“Clean. quiet, pleasant in the off-season for our stay.”
“The camping was great, the high water made for bad fishing. Guess that’s why it’s called fishing and not catching. ”

Months with fewer than 30 reservations of that kind are left blank. Sites where nearly every booking was made the day of arrival (pay on arrival) are left out. Closed seasons, windows not yet released for booking, and currently unavailable nights are separate from this history.
Based on Recreation.gov reservations, FY2015–2025 (4,510 reservations in the years scored). Counts reservations made, not nights actually camped: cancellations aren't in the data, and nights a site was closed count as not booked. FY2020–21 (COVID) are left out of the scores.
