Redstick forces attacked the fortified camp of General John Floyd's army in the predawn darkness of January 27, 1814. Floyd's army was nearly routed before forcing the attackers to withdraw.

The battlefield lies on private land near the confluence of Calabee Creek and the Tallapoosa River in present-day Macon County, Alabama. There is currently no marker commemorating the site. This image shows an area believed to be near where the battle took place.
