Little Black Creek Campground & Park

SUMMARY PRESENTED BY

Reservations are available at Little Black Creek Campground and Park, a full-hookup RV and tent destination set along a wooded lake outside Lumberton, Mississippi, roughly 30 minutes from Hattiesburg. Sites accommodate rigs up to 60 feet with electric, water, and sewer connections, and many include wooden decks with direct lake access via stairs. A gated entrance with code access operates at night.

Water access shapes most of the experience here. The lake is open for swimming at two beach areas, and the campground rents kayaks, canoes, and jon boats on-site. Anglers work the shoreline regularly. Hiking trails and disc golf courses give campers more ground to cover, and several reviewers mention riding bikes along the wooded loops throughout the park. Reviewers do note that some boardwalks over the lake were in need of repair as of late 2024, so check current conditions before relying on them.

Cell service runs thin. Most visitors report one to two bars, with T-Mobile hotspot usable but inconsistent. There is no Wi-Fi. Crowd levels vary considerably by weekend, particularly around holidays when sites fill and the campground runs organized events. "Plenty of space between sites, lots of trees and water views," notes Cat R., though busier weekends narrow that separation. Campers planning a quieter stay may want to check the event calendar before booking. Nearby Spring Hill Commons and King's Arrow Ranch are worth considering for campgrounds near Purvis if dates here are unavailable.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Hidden Gem — Can’t Believe I’d Never Heard of It!

We just spent the weekend at Little Black Creek Campground in Lumberton, MS, and it absolutely deserves a 5-star review. I live less than 2 hours away and honestly can’t believe I hadn’t discovered this place sooner — it’s a massive, beautifully wooded, and incredibly well-maintained hidden gem.

We stayed at a full hookup RV site and were blown away by how spacious, level, and private it was. Most sites had wooden decks, and many had lake views or direct access, including ours, which had stairs leading right down to the water and a picnic table on a platform. We didn’t see a single “bad” site in the whole park.

The lake is gorgeous, and swimming is allowed! They have kayaks, canoes, jon boats for rent, and even a bait shop onsite. There’s also fishing, hiking trails, disc golf (two full courses!), a general store, multiple bathhouses, and cute tiny cabin rentals for non-RV guests. They even have propane filling, golf cart rentals, and a dump station. It’s a great mix of peaceful nature and plenty to do.

The campground is huge and wooded, with tons of shade and a very peaceful, quiet, and family-friendly atmosphere. There are two beaches — one near the main camp side and another closer to long-term spots and day visitors. We brought our e-bikes and loved riding around the scenic roads and loops.

The bathhouses were older but very clean and air-conditioned, and we felt completely safe the entire time. There’s a gated entrance at night with code access, which is a nice extra touch. The store staff were super friendly and helpful, even giving us some history on the campground. The greeter at the front gate wasn’t the warmest, but that didn’t impact our stay at all.

There’s no Wi-Fi, but T-Mobile worked just enough for us to use a hotspot to stream TV at night. Cell service is limited but manageable.

It’s also very easy to find, just a few minutes off the main road with a gas station and small town nearby, and only about 30 minutes from Hattiesburg.

We will 100% be back and have already told several friends about it. If you’re looking for a peaceful, activity-filled campground that’s off the radar but worth every mile, Little Black Creek is it. Truly one of the best surprises we’ve had camping!

Halloween fun

We stayed the weekend before Halloween and it was a very busy weekend in the campground. Some sites were extravagantly decorated and trick or treating following a golf cart parade was fun. The park is nice. The only reason I did give 5 stars is because the boardwalks over the lake were in desperate need of repair and unsafe.

Beautiful views, quiet, no wifi

We reserved a spot on the lake with a sideways site so the side windows faced the water. Very pretty sunset views. No other RV’s anywhere near us. (It was a Sunday evening). This campground has no Wifi. Cell service was 1 to 2 bars, hotspot worked sometimes. The check-in staff didn’t give us a map so recommended screenshotting the one on their website. We were only there for the night but it was the prettiest and most relaxing site of our 4000 mile trip.

Peace and Tranquility

Seriously one of the more relaxing parks we've been to in a while. Plenty of space between sites, lots of trees and water views! We were in site 4, which was quite level and easy to back in to. Also had full hookups!!! No loud golf carts this week either! Our site was around 35 dollars a night with taxes. Family and pet friendly.

Clean

We visited during quarantine so we could not rent canoes, kayaks, paddle boats or do the zip line but quiet little place. It kept up well. Beach area and a couple play areas. Lots of fishing going on (never saw anyone catch anything). Nice cabins to rent too. We found a hiking trail and rode bikes
