      Twin Forks Campground

      Picturesque, reasonably-priced lakeside campground

      This city campground has many beautiful lakeside campsites along Bear Creek.  Sites are first-come, first-served.  We camped here in mid-October and had no problems getting a site.  The campground staff were friendly and helpful.

      The site is gravel with large wooden beams surrounding it.  We had to put a couple boards under the passenger side tires to level our rig; the site was pretty level from front to rear.  Easy setup.

      The campground was quiet during the evenings.  Fire rings are not provided, so bring your own fire pit if you'd like a campfire. 

      The park WiFi worked well for us - strong signal, roughly 40mbps download speeds.  Using T-Mobile, we had strong 5G service.

      Nice stop on rainy night

      Stopped at Pickwick Landing SP on a trip West to the Ozark National River. Nice campground but a little worn around the edges. Campground was mostly empty. We were in site 30, and the only people in that loop on a Friday night. They had recently had a lot of rain, and it rained most of the night. But it didn’t bother us. The asphalt on some of the roads was breaking up making for a rough road. But the campsite was large and mostly level. The bathrooms and showers were modern and well maintained. It is only 20 minutes from Shiloh National Battlefield Park which is worth the visit. We only stayed one night. Also- be sure to visit the Catfish Farm Restaurant. Smoked catfish is outstanding!

      Labor Day weekend

      From the get go at checking in we noticed how laidback and friendly the staff was. We stayed in #26 which has an incline to park the RV which wasn’t a big deal for us. We liked that on the passenger side are view was woods with the lake. The restrooms could used an updated for sure but still very usable. Fishing off the fishing docks was great! Spacing between sites is decent with trees between at most sites. Very friendly family quiet campgrounds.

      Great spot!

      Everything is clean and new and the bathrooms are amazing. Beautiful pool and splash area for kids. Pool table inside the store and a cute macaw named paco is a fun surprise.

      Only one night

      First impressions pulling in I was thinking it was going to be awesome but while setting up we noticed thrash all over. The wife picked up a full bag of garbage while I was setting up. It was around 7pm we noticed that this camping area is a special spot for tweakers and some sketchy people. They did keep to themselves which worked out. I’d say this location isn’t that bad if you’re a believer in the 2nd and watching out constantly. The camper next to us decided to run the loudest generator from 8pm on. Going to the restroom early am noticed a guy up and watching from a distance. Also someone in the stall having a weird intense conversation with himself and was in there for over a hour. Park does have the possibility of being a great campground with some improvements and someone keeping out the tweakers.

      Quick night stay

      Ended up at this location after a crappy night in Alabama. It was very clean nice location. Very nice Mississippi State Park Campground. All the staff were very friendly and Gary was a great guy that we chatted with for a bit after checking in. Restrooms were clean and air conditioned. Family type campgrounds with friendly happy campers. We will be back a lot more in the future.

      Spaced out sites

      Older campsite some improvements needed in the parking locations. Nice quiet, camping plenty of trees great for the dogs. Watching the squirrels chasing their nuts. We did have a raccoon jump on top of the RV at 1am and I think the wife shit herself! Write that down….

      Perfect Layover Dog Friendly

      It's the perfect place to stop while traveling through. There are spacious spots, a short nature trail, a swimming area on the lake, and one good restaurant just down the road.

      There are some spots right on the lake.

      Wooded sites, clean

      Stayed on a weekend in March. Campground was about 80% full. Bath and showers were clean. Concrete pad with adjacent gravel area for screen room, tent, etc. Laundry facilities were closed during our stay. Paved bike trail nearby. Limited walking trails within the campground. One dump station and trash collection area near the check-in. Good Verizon signal.

      Exactly fits the description

      Nice park with 3 loops and a few short trails. Reservation on recreate.gov and my spot was $30 a night which feels a bit steep but seems to be the going rate. The spots are not private at all but there are trees.

      This is a gravel parking lot with hook ups. Sites are extremely close together. Not my idea of "recreation".

      Staying here is staying at the best!!

      We stayed at this campground in August of 2023. This is one of the best in the country, and we know because we are just finishing a 7000 mile trip. The grounds are well manicured, the camp spots are spacious, and well spaced so that your neighbor is not on top of you. The avenues are paved, the spaces are crushed stone, well maintained. The cable TV gets lots of stations, and works well. The pool is extremely clean, as are the restrooms. It is quiet here at night, but close to town to get all your needs, or go out to eat. The owners are on site, and are as nice and polite as can be. Rest assured, your stay here will be a delight!!!

      Fall Colors

      This is one of our go to areas , no power at sites , water only , decently clean bath house . Lake access and hiking everywhere . Park rangers are quite nice here . We had a scout troop staying in the campground which I found odd as there are three specific scout areas . Beautiful fall colors
