Lake Chicot State Park Campground
Beautiful place
Loved it! Great trails nice lake very quiet in November! Only weird thing is the showers only have one temperature for water…it’s warm water.

Pecan Grove RV Park
Disappointing
Can’t see the lake. Right on the highway so there is lots of noise. Mostly a long-term park where many of the rigs are not in very good shape.

Chemin-A-Haut State Park
Wonderful state park
Bathrooms are hands down the best I’ve ever seen. Campsites aren’t on top of each other but are pretty close. My tent wouldn’t fit on the tent pad but was able to find a level spot to set up anyways. The lake was pretty busy with people fishing or paddling. Two room cabins looked pretty great and are on the water. Had two playgrounds and kids trail. Went to go to kayak out to Castle Tree and found out the water was too high to really see the base of it and it’s a two hr paddle upstream on the way there. So plan on calling ahead if you’re going to do that since the water can also be too low.

Not well kept
Don't think anyone has cleaned the pit toilet or the bear proof garbage cans for awhile only two camp sites that I can make out and only one with a camp site number (80 B) lots of flies not sure what they charge to stay here I left $10 definitely over paid but maybe they can pump out the pit toilet

Bayou Boeuf RV Park
Nice owners!!!
Super nice owners! Dwayne was very accommodating...good price for full hookup.Quiet and convenient campground.
15 mins from Black Bayou National Wildlife Refuge if you want somewhere to hike and walk around. Some delicious restaurants around for some Louisiana cuisine. We enjoyed our stay.
Level spot. Cell phone service and bathroom with shower available.

Good, Basic RV park
Good little place to stop for a night. Sites were parking lot style. Easy to find and get to, roads were in good condition. Check in was easy. Facilities were clean and taken care of. Pool was nice and clean. Fairly priced campsite.

Shady and Peaceful area
Quiet shady campsite. Not very full at all so it was peaceful. Showers and bathrooms were clean. Decent WIFI. Booster is close to site 14 and 15. If you like to be level in every direction, there are only about half of the sites that are easy to get that way. 4,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,14. All the rest slope a great deal. The ones on the inner loop slope from back to front. The ones on the outer loop slope front to back pretty dramatically. Inner loop sites are short. There were many campers unlevel it looked to me and jacks all the way out. I had the right side on 3 blocks to get it up to level.
If it rains its muddy in the site. They look to be clearing some trees as the area close to #12 where we camped had some leaning dead trees that were a bit concerning. Especially considering we had severe storms one night. Tree hit the bathroom building and also fell across the access road.
2nd picture hope you can tell how downhill the outside sites are after 14.

I tried to stay here on a recent visit to West Monroe but the gate was locked and the sign said closed.

Charming waterfront sites
Waterfront sites are wonderful, however the other sites are much less attractive. Clean facilities.

Lake Chicot State Park Campground
Fall one night stop
Very nice out of the way quiet State Park. Lots of space and not very full in late September. Bathroom and showers were great. Clean, good water pressure and plenty of hot water. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Verizon signal weak. Noseeums and other mosquitoes a little bad but could be worse.

Leroy Percy State Park Campground
Small state park makes a great stopover
Leroy Percy State Park is a small, but pretty state park with 16 full hookup campsites, 4 cabins and a nice disc golf course. Most of the campsites are shaded, at least for part of the day. Other than one other camper who appeared to have been there awhile, we were the only occupied campsite. Mosquitoes caused us to eat dinner inside our trailer, although it was otherwise nice enough to eat outside. The bathrooms were old, but mostly clean. The only exception being the handicapped men's shower which was a mess.

Blue Lake
Really nice, small campground
Small picnic area & campground along a small, pretty lake. Three campsites - 79A, 79B & 79C. Campsite fee is $7. Camped in April at 79A in a camper van, which is close to the lake. There is no pay station, and the forest office in Rolling Fork is closed; so, you have to make a reservation online at recreation.gov to pay. Online reservation fee is $8. This recreation area has a typical national forest vault toilet (not chem toilet). There is no drinking water. There are trash receptacles next to the vault toilet. There is also a gravel boat ramp. The nature trail was flooded when we visited. Insects were not too bad; we used a Thermocell insect repellent device which seemed to work. Saw an alligator lounging around in the lake. Beautiful nature sounds. No AT&T nor T-Mobile cell service. This is a low elevation, swampy wetland which does get flooded. Two wheel drive passenger cars should make it okay when the road is mostly dry. Drinking water at the forest work center was shut off.

Vicksburg Battlefield Campground
Not impressed!!?
Not impressed At all!!!!! Not well kept sites. I was put in a space with no table, bent water faucet and electric box and Stuck between two "permanent" RVs. Property needs maintenance.For $40 you'd expect to get a better space and WiFi. No WiFi where I was stuck. Paid for two nights, but probably won't stay both. So far I see no positives about this place....

Nice place
Nice RV spots with full hookups. Cellular service isn’t great but they do have Wi-Fi. The RV camping area has a nice, new, and clean restroom and shower facility with coin-operated laundry.
Kloee S.LegendRivertown Rose Campground
Great RV Park!
We enjoyed our stay at this park. It was close to historic dowtown as well as the battlefield memorial park. We rode our bikes around the park and rode accross the street to the city park. The restrooms were clean, the staff was friendly and the site was nice sized. They had a nice pool as well. We would go back if in the area.

Rivertown Rose Campground
Excellent stopover, clean, close sites
This is an excellent spot for a stopover with very clean bathhouse and easy parking. This area was very full because of area construction projects and travelling contractors. Quiet except for the inevitable train, easy to find, level. We try to avoid parking lot type parks, but this one was among the best.
Dan M.TravelerVicksburg Battlefield Campground
Still a Battle
Was misrepresented over the phone. Wife was told $25 per night then charged $35 per night plus $5 tax therefore it's $40 per night.
It's mostly a work camp with a couple that need to be permanently retired out of there.
Wifi only available in the office area and not in the campsites.
Deranged clean outs and electric pedestals.
First attempt to plug in showed reversed polarity so had to use second receptacle for next door pad.
Pad was flat/level. Was fairly quiet.
Restrooms appeared decent until you get past the lipstick on a pig.
Positive is that the location was close to the Battlefield National Park.

Five days of fishing
Great level clean sites, no sewer, dump station easy access. Store on site and ice onsite. Needs repairs desperately on the fishing docks very unsafe!

Wow on the river
Super quiet overnight spot for us. Amazing sunrise and bird activity. Might be light on leg stretching activities for some (no hikes). TMobile good coverage

Chemin-A-Haut State Park
Nice Park
Our Site #6 was large and it was a good value for full hookups, but the town of Bastrop was nothing to write home about. Winter is probably not the best time to visit — rather spooky with no leaves on the trees and most sites vacant.

Stopover
Nice place, clean showers and good laundry. Decent playground equipment, too. Stayed one night and used all the amenities with my kids.
