      Great RV Lakeside Park

      Third time at Millers Ferry! Water & electric hook ups . Good water pressure, dump station on property. Our site was paved and easily accommodated our 40 ft Rv/ fifth wheel & Dooley. Each site has a fire ring/with top grate to grill, picnic table, shepherd hook.Bathroom clean another one under construction. Nice playground. $1 for washer and dryer. Lots of sites are gravel as well, but level. Lots of people fish-parking for trucks & trailers at water ramp on property. No dog park, but lots of nature walks and paved roads to walk on. Oh yes, Lots of mosquitoes & ants, bring bug spray for a more pleasant stay! Shopping in town about 15-20 minutes away. Several good restaurants. There is a Piggly Wiggly, True Value Hardware, and Dollar stores. Approx 20-30 min to Walmart, next town over. Public lake for swimming, on site, with playground!

      Chickasaw State Park Campground

      CCC Remnants , Chickasaw SP

      Small road side park that the state had turned over to the County some years ago.

      It only has 3 RV sites and typically offers water and electricity only.

      Nothing more than a class "C" should stay.

      Tent camping is welcome. 

      Bathrooms were closed for the season and the water is off due to a leak.

      There is a dump station located by the restrooms. 

      There is WMA property across the road that could be accessed for hiking.

      Peaceful

      Very nice. Roomy. Clean. Many nice sites. Nicely wooded and a lot of water views. Great for water/fishing/boating activities. Only drawback is no sewer hookup but dump station on-site

      Best place we've ever been!

      Talk about a nice campground! Secluded, quiet, right on the water. Only thing that would make it better is full hookup.

      Great sites, lousy bathrooms

      Large, well kept sites. Horrible bathrooms a long walk from many sites. If the urge hits, you won't make it. Bring your own if you can.

      A favorite place

      This is one of my favorite places to spend a few days. It is by a beautiful lake and a friendly, well kept campground. It's also close to home so it is easy to run down and get out of town.
