    Small Diamond in the Rough Campground

    We hit the jackpot with this small diamond in the rough campground right outside of Jackson. If you find yourself passing through Jackson, this is an excellent place to stop. This resort is beautiful and peaceful with the friendliness people around. The owner greets every visitor personally, showing you to your site, and making sure you have everything you need for the best stay possible. I can’t say enough about their hospitality. My only regret is not being able to stay longer! This was our second stop on our roadtrip from Dallas to Disney. Read the entire story at ChampagneOnDeck.com

    Calling Panther Lake

    Calling Panther Lake Campground

    We arrived around 8 pm. I am originally from the Crystal Springs area so expected bad roads, low hanging tree limbs ect... road wasn't great but also wasn't full of pot holes as I expected. There were no low hanging tree limbs, just keep your speed to about 35 and you'll be fine. This is quite possibly the hidden gem of my beloved State of Mississippi. Quiet, No WiFi, T-mobile worked in some locations. We had 35 OTA channels, not that we watched TV but it was available. Park has pull through and back in, level concrete pads with fire pit and table, 50/30/15 electric, water and sewer.

    Movietown RV Park

    Nice size TV park w cabins

    Thanks dyrt for pointing us here. For 30$ a night u get a level gravel drive thru spot electric, sewer, water, and wifi,laundry facilities and bath house very very clean. Very quiet all thru the day and night. Friendly people all round. 5 min to walmart, tractor supply, and many restaurants and gas stations. Spacious lots so you arent right up on each other. Theres rental lots and cabins by the night, week and month. Theres saved spaces for those who just want a pulling over night. Theres big rigs here and small ones. Vintage and brand new. These are friendly people you can sit a chair or 2 outside and not have someone pounding on your door at 7am yelling about a toy or a chair left out all night. This is our face in canton so far. Lovely place with country atmosphere. Pet friendly and spacious. All u need is right here. Thank you ms. Kay and staff.

    Natchez Trace Parkway - Rocky Springs

    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.

    Lake Mary Crawford

    Quiet and simple

    The road into the lake area is a little rough but it's only about a mile and a half from the highway to the lake so it's not bad.

    Sites are first come first serve with an honor box, I think roughly 20 pads. $17/ night if you don't want to use electric, $22 if you do. I went without electric but each site has power and water. No sewer hookups but there is a dump station by the bath house. Bath house itself is functional but pretty rough. The lake was recently drained and renovated... I wish they could have extended the renovation to the park's facilities.

    The concrete pads are not huge but they get the job done and I think they are all back in spots. When I camped there was a good size Class A on a spot by the lake. This was the only other site taken when I was here. You'll likely be on your own if you come during the week.

    Overall beautiful lake and I hear the fishing is pretty good after the renovation and restocking. The campground meets my needs perfectly but it's far from "glamping."

    LeFleur's Bluff State Park Campground

    Lovely

    Found this sweet campground traveling cross country. Quiet, large level concrete pad, 30 & 50 amp, water, dump station, $35 after tax. Even tho it was in town,. It was so quiet you could hear the birds on the pond. Gravel road entrance is decent. Only drawback was the burn ban.

    Natchez Trace Parkway - Rocky Springs

    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.


Guide to Brandon

Brandon's RV parks sit on the eastern shore of Ross Barnett Reservoir, a 33,000-acre impoundment of the Pearl River with an average depth of 12 feet. The area experiences humid subtropical climate with summer temperatures averaging 91°F and mild winters rarely dropping below freezing. Several campgrounds offer lake access with concrete pads that remain usable during Mississippi's frequent rainfall periods, which average 54 inches annually.

What to do

Fishing and boating: Sunset Marina and RV Park provides direct reservoir access for water sports. "This campground also has a nice Marina/Camp Store (and coming restaurant), as well as a nice pool and bathhouse for short-term campers. Also - as this is a marina as well, there is a full-service marina, boat ramps, and parking slips if you need them," notes Paul C.

Disc golf: The course at Timberlake Campground attracts players of all skill levels. "It literally has everything... Disc golf course was a huge plus since I love disc golf," writes Daniel S. The course is adjacent to the campground in a public park with soccer fields.

Water park activities: Families can enjoy the heated water attractions at Yogi on the Lake year-round. "Water park is heated which I didn't know and wished we brought swim suits," mentions Melissa G. The park includes slides and splash pad features popular with younger children.

What campers like

Lakefront ambiance: Campers appreciate waterfront sites at RV parks in Brandon, Mississippi. At Timberlake Campground, David H. notes it's "Quiet, scenic and the few neighbors I had for the holiday weekend were friendly." The shoreline setting creates a peaceful atmosphere despite proximity to urban amenities.

Wildlife encounters: Wendy Oaks RV Resort offers an 8-acre private lake with resident wildlife. "We liked walking by the pond and watching all the birds, as well as swinging on the bench swing," shares Renee. Another camper mentions, "Our kids and babies loved feeding the ducks and walking around the lake."

Seasonal events: Holiday camping draws visitors to local RV parks. "We spent a weekend in October here and absolutely loved it. The trick or treating is the best. Start right when you can because there are so many sites offering candy or haunted areas. The spook trail is top tier," reports a Yogi on the Lake visitor.

What you should know

Campground layouts: Some RV parks mix with residential areas. At Springridge Mobile Estates & RV Park, Lisa E. notes it's "Pretty difficult to navigate at night since the layout is atypical. RVs are mixed with mobile homes and you just pick a spot if you are late arrival." This arrangement affects privacy and navigation.

Bathroom conditions: Facilities vary widely between parks. Joy R. warns about Timberlake Campground: "The bathroom was one of the nastiest we've encountered in our 8 years of travel. Moldy; broken tiles, countertop, towel dispenser, & trim; caution tape over both shower stalls in the women's."

Site leveling: Many sites require adjustment. Richard at Springridge reports, "It took more effort than usual to get level but we did achieve that." Most parks offer gravel or concrete pads, with condition and levelness varying significantly between locations.

Tips for camping with families

Free water equipment: Wendy Oaks RV Resort offers complimentary water recreation equipment. "Free– 2 paddleboats, 3 kayaks, 4 SUP boards for campers to use(1st come, 1st serve basis)," details Monica C. This saves families from transporting or renting equipment.

Scheduled activities: Family-oriented campgrounds offer organized events. At Yogi on the Lake, Shirley B. explains there are "planned activities each day for family fun" alongside amenities like "Pool, slides, jumping pad, playground, mini golf, tennis, basketball."

Grocery proximity: Most Brandon RV parks offer convenient shopping access. Timberlake Campground has "a Kroger grocery store right across the street from the campground," according to Brad G., making meal planning and supply runs easier for families.

Tips from RVers

Site selection: At Brandon area RV parks, waterfront sites fill quickly. "We stayed in spot #1 and had a beautiful view of the lake, nice fire pit and picnic table," shares a Wendy Oaks camper. Lakefront sites typically cost $5-10 more per night but offer superior views and direct water access.

Personal assistance: Wendy Oaks provides arrival help for RVers. "Melanie and the team at Wendy Oaks are amazing! We arrived after dark and they had a lantern waiting on the electrical box for us to use while setting up," writes Alexandra. Other campers note the "personal greeter/escort to site during office hours."

Sewer connection challenges: Some parks have problematic hookups. At Sunset Marina, one camper notes "some sewer hook-ups are 12" above ground creating a problem for dumping and drainage." RVers should travel with sewer hose supports and extensions for these situations.
