Demopolis is a charming, historic riverfront town on the Tombigbee that makes multi-week stays feel comfortable and interesting—think a walkable downtown, antebellum architecture, cozy local cafés and plenty of outdoor time for boating, fishing and birding to fill evenings and days off.
For bigger-city options within reach, Tuscaloosa (about 55 miles north) and Montgomery (about 70 miles east) offer weekend dining, cultural events and shopping, so you can enjoy small-town life without feeling isolated.
