Friends of Lake Lurleen State Park This page is dedicated to bring awareness and promotion for Lake Lurleen State Park. Please join our page to show your support for the park.

This page has no affiliation with Alabama's State Park system and is ran by someone who enjoys having the park in Tuscaloosa. Friends of Lake Lurleen is a group of dedicated members who have a vested interest in the preservation and future improvements of the historic Lake Lurleen State Park. We are a group who appreciates everything Lake Lurleen has to offer the West Alabama area including shared-use biking/hiking trails, canoeing, swimming, camping, fishing, geocaching, bird watching, plant identifying, and, in general, just being outdoors. Our focus is both to preserve the park's current offerings as well as to advocate for future park improvements and renovations that would create an even more accessible and enjoyable experience while visiting.

Many people have asked and here's our thoughts about the WiFi at the park. Last time we visited, the WiFi was not working past section B. We have heard they are still installing hardware and it's taking much longer than expected. However, even if there is Wi-Fi throughout the park, the bandwidth that is supplied is not going to be sufficient to accommodate a park full of campers (as shown in the image).

Is this the park's fault? Probably not. This is likely the only carrier and the maximum available bandwidth in the area and until that changes, it is what it is.

Unless something drastically changes, if you're planning to visit and hoping to be able to stream TV during a busy weekend, you should plan on bringing your own internet connection.

We've seen that T-Mobile has decent coverage in the park AT&T and Verizon are hit and miss.
