We live in Tuscaloosa and we are weekend warriors so we have camped all the campgrounds around.
In the immediate Tuscaloosa area, there are really only two choices (unless you want to park in a gravel parking lot)
If you are willing to dry-camp and want to be in the center of town, there is a free lot that is used for RV parking during football season. If you want more information I can pass it along.
I also have pictures of both campgrounds listed below if interested.
Deerlick Creek
(hands down the best sites in the area, no competition)
PROS:
The sites are all large paved sites,
All sites are spaced out from each other
Waterfront sites all have personal decks with seating areas
50amp sites
All sites are reservable
Very quiet and serene
CONS:
Water/Electric (no sewer)
You will want to stay more than a day
Gates close at 10pm
----
Lake Lurleen
PROS:
Some Water/Electric/Sewer sites (no site reservations)
Some sites are nice and have waterfront (not quite like deerlick though)
Gate has code to go in and out at night
CONS:
Smaller sites
Not all sites are paved
Sites are much more crowded

Jennings Ferry is also very nice (COE like Deerlick) but it is a good ways away from Tuscaloosa.
