Many visitors appreciated the level, spacious pull-through sites in this free NPS campground with clean facilities. Some noted maintenance issues with rusty grills and aging picnic tables, plus limited cell service for T-Mobile users.

Plenty of space for activities

10 to 15 spaces around a big loop in a wooded area. Little run down but the area was pretty. There were what appeared to be two long term "campers" also in the loop but no one else. Very quiet at night. Campfire ring, grill grate and old wooden picnic table. Mostly flat spots with a couple of pull through spots.

Looks like a very nice place

I drove through,  The sites are level, clean and about half a pull through.  Each site has a picnik bench fire pit.  However, I did not stay because it had absolutely no Tmobile cell service and being alone and full time.  I did not feel like camping without it.  I did fine another campground on the same road about 150 miles north east. which I stayed at.

Great location on the Trace Parkway

Nice big pull thrus all along the camping loop. Great camping with mostly one-nighterz. Stayed two days in early December and had no issues.

The campground is a large loop with about 30 sites. Only one bathroom open but everything was clean and garbage service was excellent.

Walked the loop (about 0.6 miles) several times a day. Our site was about 80 yards from the toilet. Lots of trails through the middle of the loop as a shortcut to the toilet.

Site80 yards past the toilet.

Peaceful Evening in the Trees

All campsites had a picnic table, fire ring and a grill which were typical of these free NPS campsites. The bathroom facilities were clean with running non-potable water. All of the fire rings and grills were rusty and some of the wooden picnic tables were falling apart but we were one of a few campers this early in the season, so hopefully they'll be attended to before the summer rush. We picked a pull-thru site and lit a fire in the ring and used our own camp chairs and table for a lovely star filled night.

all Trees, Quiet. A great place to stay overnight on the Natchez Trail

Nice primitive grounds with pull-through and back-in options. Gave a 1 in service because it is a first come first serve. It is a terrific spot to stop and sleep. We camped at Natchez Trace Parkway- Rocky Springs in a Fifth Wheel. Didnt get a chance to take photos, we arrived at dark and left early morning.
