- Chewacla Falls EasyRV parking available
Chewacla Falls is the CCC-built dam spillway where Chewacla Lake pours over into the creek below, creating a photogenic cascade. A short, well-marked path from the day-use area leads to viewing points and the base of the falls.

Chewacla Lake is stocked with largemouth bass, bream, catfish, and crappie and is accessible from the bank, a fishing pier, and small craft. An Alabama freshwater fishing license is required for anglers sixteen and older.

Wow, we had a ball in this camper! Me, my husband and our 3 1/2 year old son. We were all comfortable, beds slept great and this camper was CLEAN, looked brand new! The West are so friendly, we can't wait to rent with them again.

Cannot recommend Auburn RV Rentals enough! We were trying to coordinate a busy birthday weekend, including picking up the camper, and Jeff was nice enough to text the morning before our reservation and offer free delivery and setup. Everything was perfect—bedding, towels, kitchen essentials, coffee—everything! We can’t wait to rent from Jeff and Auburn RV Rentals again!

How to get to Chewacla State Park
Chewacla State Park is located just off Interstate 85 at Exit 51, about 5 miles south of downtown Auburn and roughly 60 miles northeast of Montgomery (about a one-hour drive). Atlanta is approximately 110 miles to the northeast, a two-hour drive on I-85. The access roads are paved and suitable for large RVs, with no tunnels, mountain passes, or steep grades to navigate, though the final approach road into the campground is narrow and winding, so drivers of longer rigs should take it slow. The nearest major airport for fly-and-rent travelers is Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International, with Montgomery Regional Airport offering a closer but smaller option.
