Many sites decorated for Halloween. Even little trick or treaters. Many sites on the river. Cool to watch the working barges going by. And lots of armadillos.
Traveler
RV spots are suitable for car camping, although a bit close together with bright street lights and showers are outdated. Still, the camp host treated me kindly, and I enjoyed the scenery and walkability!
Legend
Beautiful small park. Great riverside pull thru spots. All spots are sizable. Lots of wildlife. Hosts are very helpful. Off grid and quiet with the occasional boat.
Scout
There isn't a lot of space but the bathrooms were decent and they had water spigots and trashcans set up at intervals. It was clean and a pretty area.
TravelerPaved pull through sites are first come first serve. They seem to over lap and lots of folk share the sites. So you may need to back up to get out, even if it is pull through.
Flush toilets. Picnic area. Nice nature walk to a view, 1 mile each way.
Scout
Nice river front sites on the Ten-Tom waterway. You get to watch river barges approaching the lock/dam. HOT showers. Facilities are aging but in good condition.
GuideOff the beaten path. Power and water available for reasonable price. Walking the property was fantastic for us and our dogs. We were fortunate to be there on the last Saturday of the month, when they host a dinner and live music. With just 7 of us, including the 2 hosts and the musician, it was a very neat experience. Even had a “sing along “!!!! This is why we love Harvest Hosts. You would never get an experience like this anywhere else.
Traveler
This is a great place to dump your tanks. Only one problem and we expect it to be resolved soon. The charge is $5.00 but there is no one to pay! The sign claims you can pay in the park, the dump is outside the park, at the entrance or exit. Afterwards we continued to “in the park” to pay with our 53’ rig with car in tow. We looked for a place to pay we gave up and had to try to turn around running over the curb with Motorhome and car we thought we should just mail the fee. A BOX AT THE DUMP STATION SEAM TO BE A SIMPLE FIX.
TravelerClean, we were here Thanksgiving weekend. Loved every minute. Flushing toilets. Free water. NO DUMP SITE.
Traveler
The campground was full for the fall holiday. However, the energy was great. It was our first time at the park. The hosts were very helpful. The showers and bathrooms are dated but clean. The best views are located on the water in the lots 80-85. Level spaces and easy to back in.

ScoutIt’s good
ScoutCan anyone tell me about the primitive camping? My husband and children are planning a camping trip for this weekend over Mother’s Day, we are new to the neshoba county area. I see that fishing has great reviews, but what other amenities are there? Are pets allowed (on leash of course), kids friendly?
GuideShady & spacious campground along the Tenn-Tom with a boat ramp on calm water just off the main channel. Take your bikes and kayaks!
GuideThis campground was amazing. Our site was right off the lake. The scenery was beautiful, it was quiet, the sites are pretty spread out. Camp sites 3-12 is where you want to be. There is a playground for kids, a boat dock if you have one, or you can just fish right off your site. The camp host was a very helpful and sweet man. We loved this campground and will definitely be back.
GuideBusy campground but enough space so it doesn’t feel like your neighbors are right on top of you. Plenty of shade and many spots have a direct view of the Tenn-Tom Waterway.
ScoutI love camping spending time with my family
TravelerSites 5 and 8 are our favorite. Really, any site on the small lake is great. Those are the smaller number spots. Almost always one available. Large hands in the smaller lake. I haven't even had a bite in the larger lake. This is our local campground and we go a few times a year. No WiFi and very little cell signal, as camping should be. We love it.
Scout
This is great little campground. The Cabins were recently added and is a nice feature. Always quiet and owners are very accommodating.

Not dark sky friendly as there are street lights at sites 15 and 11 with 3 street lights at the toilet/shower building
Few of the 15 sites here are level side-to-side. We had to get creative in our site #4 as when parked on the asphalt pad we did not have enough leveling equipment so had to straddle pad with door side on the gravel.
Huge pot holes in the asphalt parking pass site
#4 No campfire“ring” at campsites so we just has a fire on the ground
No privacy from any other site
Shower curtain for toilet stall “doors” in both men and women
No park WIFI

COOL CAMP
Traveler
Quiet except for the sounds of nature. A river runs thru it. Well, next to it. Paved roads X throughout, with was huge for me on a motorcycle. But, the grassy area for my site was all red ants and bull ants. The "pad" was pea gravel, impossible to stake my tent. And, the super nice man running the place informed me I was to set up on the pad. @ The weather called for rain and I was worried about wind.
ScoutThis is a well maintained site and it is quiet/uncrowded. This site provides about 10-15 camper spots, and there is a small office were you would pay for a spot. There is no place for primitive or tent camping. Not much recreational area also. There is a boat ramp, but it was very shallow and dried up around the shore. A public bathroom is provided, not sure of the quality though.
GuideComing home to Dallas from Alabama and found this oasis…clean and quiet. In and out no problems.
GuideReally well situated spots, very level and well maintained. Showers could use an upgrade but the worked none the less. Lake is very pretty. Quiet and comfortable stay all around.
