COE Greers Ferry Lake Devil's Fork Campground

With 55 sites and electric hookups, COE Greers Ferry Lake Devil's Fork Campground operates year-round at $17-22 per night through the Army Corps of Engineers reservation system. The campground accommodates RVs up to 70 feet and provides drinking water, flush toilets, showers, and a dump station alongside boat ramp access to Greers Ferry Lake.

Multiple sites sit directly on the water, offering immediate lake access for boating and fishing. The facility includes a sandy swim beach enhanced with imported sand and a playground for families. Shana D. notes there are "lots of really nice sites on the water" and expects the campground gets "packed in the summer." The location houses the Tournament Fish Life Support Facility, where official fishing tournament weigh-ins occur with aerated holding tanks.

Campers should plan for longer walks to the main bathhouse from many sites, as some portable facilities develop odors by evening hours. The surrounding area provides 9,000 acres of wildlife management land with archery-only deer hunting permitted. Rocky bluffs and wooded terrain create the backdrop for various water activities including scuba diving at old home sites.

For different lake experiences, nearby COE Greers Ferry Lake Narrows Campground offers an alternative Corps-managed option.

Many visitors reported nice waterfront sites and family amenities like sandy beaches and playgrounds. Some feedback indicated bathhouse distances can be challenging for tent campers without facilities.

Beautiful View 😍

Super nice Campground right on Greers Faity lake. Our only complaint was that they didn't stop us to check us in upon arrival and we had to return to do so. Bathrooms were located nearby, as well as boat access to the lake. There was also several swimming spots!

Nice sites on the water

Lots of really nice sites on the water. The campground is well maintained. There is a swim beach with sand and also a great playground. I bet this place is packed in the summer! There were several people winter camping here. The bathhouse isn’t close for the people like me without a bathroom in their RV or tent campers.

Floating and boating

This is one of several campgrounds to choose from around Greers Ferry Lake that are operated by the Corps of Engineers (COE), and there are a few good reasons to choose it. A good amount of sand is dumped near the swim beaches, improving on the natural and concrete poured banks. There is a good breakfast buffet up the road at Janssen's. A bit farther away, the Little Red at Indian Hill's is well reviewed by foodies, though I haven't tried it. This COE campground has a nicer feel than the one at the Fairfield Bay Marina, yet is still within a reasonable distance to visit the marina for a ferry ride to the island Sugarloaf Mountain (a must-do 1-2 hour hike with terrific views of the lake). Although, I have not tried Sugar Loaf campground, which also offers a dock and marina within sight of the mountain. On the downside at Devil's Fork, most sites are a long walk away from the bathhouse with showers. The toilets that do not have a shower smell strongly of human waste by evening hours, so avoid campsites directly by them.
