Liberty Hall stands near Camden in Wilcox County, Alabama, and remains a privately owned house rather than a public site; the sources record no visitor tours or overnight stays. Its main house, added to the National Register of Historic Places on January 5, 1984, is documented in the Historic American Buildings Survey as No. AL-164, which includes ten photographs of the McDowell House.

The front portico mixes two round Ionic columns in the center with a square column on each side, a distyle-in-antis arrangement. The lower-level formal rooms and hall carry plasterwork designed in part by Harriet McDowell, wife of John Robert McDowell. The house remains in the family: it is owned by the original owner's great-granddaughter.
