Best Dog-Friendly Camping near Belden, MS

264 Reviews

Trace State Park Campground near Belden maintains pet-friendly campsites throughout the park, featuring full hookups for RVs and access to hiking trails where leashed dogs are welcome. The park provides spacious, level sites with asphalt pads, picnic tables, and fire rings, making it comfortable for campers traveling with pets. Sites are adequately spaced with some offering lake views, though they provide limited privacy between neighbors. Bathhouse facilities are clean but show signs of age in some camping loops. The roads within the park need maintenance, with numerous potholes from the entrance gate to the campground areas, but remain passable for vehicles with pets in tow.

Tombigbee State Park and Serenity RV Park also accommodate pets with varying amenities. Serenity RV offers both pull-through cement sites and back-in pads with two sewer connections, making longer stays with pets convenient. A small dog run is available, though it may occasionally be closed for maintenance or AstroTurf installation. Moon Lake Farm provides a more intimate camping experience with a short trail that circles the property, perfect for walking dogs on a peaceful getaway. When exploring local outdoor spaces with pets, campers should note that most Mississippi state parks require dogs to remain leashed at all times. The park landscape includes wooded areas and lakeshores, creating scenic environments for morning and evening dog walks, though wildlife awareness is important when camping with pets.

    Piney Grove Campground

    This is one of the best!

    We reserved a waterfront spot, but our rig wouldn’t fit despite the website saying so, no biggy though. Was able to swap spots and enjoyed our stay. Very nice park, nice beaches and great for walking pets. Most amenities were closed for the season/ COVID. Great staff. We had few bars (Verizon) and no service on t-mobile. Overall great experience, can’t go wrong with any spot.

    Wall Doxey State Park Campground

    Abounds in charm and hospitality

    My stay won't likely be like yours. First, I drove in while Mississippi was under a blanket of snow. All the roads in Holly Springs and the rest of the state were treacherous with packed snow and ice following a week of unseasonably frigid weather across the southern midwest.

    That said, the 2 rangers working at Wall Doxey went out of their way to set me up with a parking place in the practically empty campground, putting me in the youth camp, finding me an extension cord to hook up to power and allowing me access to the group camp for a bathroom and shower.

    This was necessary because many areas were either in the middle of renovation, inaccessible or out of service due to frozen pipes. To say these ladies went out of their way to get me situated is an understatement. They were heroines!

    The camp has loads of retro charm. A big mid-century lodge, picnic area, swimming lake, frisbee golf and a 2 mile hiking trail around the lake. I enjoyed a walk thru the snow and the comfort of having a safe and caring place to stay during my trip through Mississippi.

    I suspect it will be the same for you even if your visit is under far different circumstances.

    Whitten Park Campground

    Gorgeous and well-kept

    The campground in Jamie L. Whitten Historical Center is easy to find close to the highway. Staff at the entrance was very friendly and helpful. The site was PERFECT: level concrete pull-thru big enough for our 40' rig and Jeep, adorable picnic and firepit area overlooking the Tennessee-Tombigbee Waterway peeking through the beautiful trees. Hookups right where you needed them. And lots of beautifully maintained trails through the woods for walking our dogs. Two thumbs up!

    A Tombigbee View

    Our 3/3/21-3/6/21 stay at Site 60 provides easy access to a fishing pier, walking paths and enjoyable sunsets. Sites are a comfortable size and located with adequate forrest canopy that provides shade for most. We enjoy several afternoon paddles on this stretch of river.

    Outside the campground entrance the Underground Railroad Bicycle Trail goes along the road and continues to the lock for walking and peddling.

    Howard Stafford Park Campground

    Small tidy county park

    With less than 20 sites this is a small comfortable campground with full hookups. 30 minutes to Tupelo or Oxford, this place splits them down the middle. The site is a level concrete pad with 50/30 amp, water and sewer. The campground is next to a big county park with a playground, boat ramp and fishing docks. Nice walking paths along the lakes edge provides a great place for a view of the sunset. The camp manger is a nice as could be and reached out after I left to return something I left behind. A great small park easy to get to.

    Trace State Park Campground

    Family friendly, single mom approved.

    Camped for two weeks in mid fall, October 2020. Full hookups, clean bath house. Family friendly. It is dated though. Play area available, small and quant. Roads are drivable of course but need to be funded, come on Mississippi and step up.. 15-20 minutes from a supercenter on West Main Street in Tupelo. Tupelo is lovely and where we actually live. This is the nearest campground my children 13, 10, and 4 stay at. The 4yo loves is, hiking and bike riding is what the older kids do. Nice lake for fishing, no swimming or wake.

    Site we stayed at was level, and fully shaded.
