Camping at Jennings Ferry

Public campground · 49 campsites

A forested campground near fishing, and hiking. RV fit varies by site.

About this campground

Fishing and boating are the main draws here: anglers can fish from shore or from boats for bass, crappie, bream and catfish, and the larger Black Warrior & Tombigbee Lakes system some 457 miles of combined shoreline and nearly 39,800 surface acres of water supports water-skiing, sailing, powerboating and jet skiing. Boat launching ramps are available at most Corps-managed recreation areas and three private marinas nearby offer fuel, repairs, rentals and supplies for longer outings.

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 (15,821 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.
