Cool place for a camping trip

We wanted to be near Jackson, Ms, but not too near. This fits the bill. Lot of trees, very small and private - only 15 sites, most were empty. 
Clean bathrooms and great showers. Drive thru sites mostly.  Sites have 30 amps(not sure about 50), water and sewer. Good 5G connection on AT&amp;T 

Small, no frills, nice trail and museum nearby

Stayed one night, very quiet and a few nice and fun things to do. Had a fire ring to cook for the night or just to enjoy a fire. 2 nice picnic tables and a good place for a tent. Can drive your car right to sight. Tent and camper sights.
