Thread: BCDA campgrounds

I'd like to find out if there are any campgrounds in the BCDA lakes area that stay open year round and have full hook-ups. I've stayed at the cabins on Little Bear in the past for a week in the spring, but would like to see about something more permanent over 6-8 month time span from the first of October to the middle of May.


I've seen a campground (I think private) near one of the ramps, but I can't find a phone number or any other info from the internet.


Thanks for any help.

I dont think they are open all year you can call the bcda office at 256-332-4392.

there is one on upper bear, year round camping individually owned contact will be Gary Rushing @ Rushing Florist Haleyville,Al

Thanks for the information slilder. I'll make the contact. Planning to be down that way in 3 weeks for another spring break fishing vacation on Little Bear.

Hope your weather has been better than ours here in southern Indiana--first time in years that I haven't had the boat out sometime in February chasing some crappie.

Makes that trip to Alabama just that much better--what a super area!
Good fishing, good restaurants, reasonable prices, and some of the best people that I've ever been around.

the camp ground is nice. very nice people. they have a resturant there but it's not open all the time not sure about the times, It's 15mins from haleyville , then your about 45 mins from little bear and cedar. and you will be right on the water at upper bear, which produced some 3lb cappie last year.
