8 campgrounds with availability this weekend
RV parks near De Soto National Forest provide varied options for motorhome travelers. Cajun RV Park in Biloxi offers full hookup sites with 50-amp electrical service, water, and sewer connections across from the Gulf. "Some concrete pads, some gravel pads, full hookups, pool, and laundry facilities. Quite, except for go-kart park next door until 10:00 pm," noted one camper. Majestic Oaks RV Resort features 100 concrete sites accommodating big rigs with both 30-amp and 50-amp electrical options. Green Wood Stable Lodge RV Park provides more secluded sites with 50-amp and 30-amp service, though without sanitary dump stations on property. Most parks in the region maintain level sites with limestone or concrete pads to accommodate larger motorhomes.
Interstate 10 provides direct access to several RV parks in the Biloxi and Gulfport areas, approximately 30 miles south of De Soto National Forest. Cell service varies throughout the region, with stronger coverage near coastal areas and potentially weaker signals in more rural locations near the forest. According to one visitor, "The park was filled with friendly campers who made this place enjoyable. The price was a win. The site itself was very basic without Wi-Fi and an old fashion looking water pump." Pet policies differ between parks, with most allowing pets on leash. Laundry facilities are available at select locations including Majestic Oaks and Cajun RV Park. During peak vacation seasons, particularly summer months when beach access is popular, advance reservations are strongly recommended as coastal RV parks fill quickly.
"Some concrete pads, some gravel pads, full hookups, pool, and laundry facilities. Quite, except for go-kart park next door until 10:00 pm. They provide coffee and danish-pastries each morning at 9am."

ScoutBeautiful weather. I was not on the water but I had a clear view of the lake it was still very pretty! Grounds were immaculate. Not much shade on my site until about 4:30. But a lot of sites had no shade!!
ScoutSewage backing up for several days more than once. Guests drive through it…. Human waste.. management needs training on customer service 101. They will bother you for needless things. They don’t treat all guests equally. The bbq contests take over the place. Just packed in there. Owner has an attitude.
ScoutThe price is with 96$ to high. To much mosquitos.
TravelerThis doesn’t exist and looks to be private property
TravelerGuys this is just a little small spot right off the highway by an old run-down not even open store. It has maybe 6 spots. It’s definitely not scenic. It looks like a “we need to stop now and not set up anything” kind of place. It looks directly out to hwy 49. Did not stay here just drove past.
TravelerThere’s only one site big enough for our l shaped canopy tent and since you cannot reserve you have to get there and hope it’s open. For small tents it’s great, but make sure you have an inverter to convert to 110. The sites are also on a hill so almost all the sites are at a slant except the actual small pad area for each site. It would be a really tight fit for even small RVs
The bathrooms are single occupancy and really need updating, but they aren’t “dirty” just old. They are not climate controlled.
For small tents camping and for those very confident in the rv maneuvering skills, this is a little gem. For anything else, you might find yourself in a really tight spot.
TravelerThis is a beautiful lakeside campground with lots of sites. It’s a larger campground that caters to RVs of all sizes, but is great for tent camping too! They allow tent camping in the “RV pads” but even better is they don’t make you pitch your tent on the concrete or gravel. You can pitch your tent in the grass. They also have a really really nice primitive area without hookups, but has water really close. It’s well maintained and shady all day.
The lake is beautiful. There is fishing and kayaking and boating. They do rent kayaks but idk how much. There are piers to fish off of.
This is a beautifully maintained park, but the BEST part for this tent camping gal? The bath houses ARE CLIMATE CONTROLLED!
To me this is kind of the best of both worlds. Enough nature to not feel like you’re in an rv resort, but all the amenities of one.
GuidePark layout is nice with probably 150 sites +/-. Some are close together. Others are well spaced and situated for some privacy. No one on site at night so when it gets loud or rowdy, you're on your own.
GuideSpent a lovely night at Davis Bayou Campground. A beautiful, peaceful setting with fantastic hiking and cycling trails to explore. Perfect for stretching your legs, getting on the bikes and enjoying the great outdoors. Definitely worth a stop!
De Soto National Forest camping options provide motorhome travelers with alternatives to the coastal RV parks located 30 miles south. The national forest encompasses over 500,000 acres of pine forests and blackwater streams in southern Mississippi, with elevations ranging from 100 to 400 feet above sea level. During summer months, temperatures regularly exceed 90°F with high humidity, while spring and fall offer milder conditions for campers.
Fishing at nearby lakes: Several RV parks near De Soto National Forest offer fishing opportunities. At Magnolia Sands RV Park, campers can enjoy their own fishing pond on-site. "Beautiful park amongst the trees with its own pond. Concrete pads are large enough to handle most 'big rigs'," notes one visitor.
Beach access: Many coastal campgrounds provide convenient beach access within driving distance of De Soto National Forest. Gulf Beach RV Resort offers proximity to Gulf beaches. "You can walk a block to the beach, bring a wagon to haul your beach gear or drive as there is parking at the beach," one camper advises.
Go-kart racing: Several RV parks near De Soto National Forest have adjacent entertainment options. "This campground is situated just across the road from Biloxi Beach. There are several amenities that make this the perfect place to camp and is reasonably priced," shares a visitor about Cajun RV Park.
Pool facilities: Multiple RV parks feature swimming pools for cooling off during hot Mississippi days. Majestic Oaks RV Resort receives praise for its "heated pool year round" and "big showers." One reviewer notes, "Very nice site and grounds. Nice places to walk a dog and even a place to let them run. Really nice laundry facilities."
Pet-friendly accommodations: Many campgrounds welcome pets, with some offering dedicated pet areas. "Great location for beach and casino. Grounds are well kept," mentions a camper at Cajun RV Park. Another visitor at Majestic Oaks appreciates that the resort "has its own dog park."
Quiet rural settings: For travelers seeking tranquility away from busy coastal areas, Green Wood Stable Lodge RV Park offers a peaceful alternative. "We stayed 2 nights and loved it. It is a quiet country feel just minutes from downtown Biloxi and the casinos. We went to the dock to buy fresh shrimp right off the boat," shares one reviewer.
Site spacing varies significantly: RV parks differ in how closely units are positioned. At Oaklawn RV Park, "spaces are narrow but gravel was recently added. Leveling was easy, electric and water hook ups are in a good location," according to one camper. Another notes, "Each site is extremely small/tight. When we put out our awning, it literally hit the RV that was next to us."
Wi-Fi reliability fluctuates: Internet connectivity differs between parks and even within the same facility. "The internet is virtually non-existent, which is an issue because they list it in the park description," reports a visitor at Oaklawn RV Park, while another camper found "decent LTE speed on my phone but my Verizon LTE router was slow."
Noise considerations: Some parks experience noise from nearby attractions or transportation. "The biggest disappointment was the close proximity to a go-cart track (next door)," mentions one camper. Another reports that at Southern Oaks Mobile Home & RV Community there was "more than normal noise activities from the interstate being close."
Look for kid-friendly amenities: Some parks offer activities specifically designed for children. "Nice location. Across the street from the beach. Nice pool. Clean bathhouse. Lots of activities like putt putt golf, go carts, sailing, fishing etc," reports a visitor to Cajun RV Park.
Consider proximity to attractions: Shields RV Park offers nearby recreational opportunities. "Large full hook up sites, nice laundry facility and restrooms, and the office staff was very professional and accommodating for our last minute reservations. There are two parts to the campground, one of which is by a lake," notes a reviewer.
Check bathroom facilities: Family campers often appreciate clean, accessible bathrooms. "My girlfriend was especially impressed with the showers, comparing them to luxury hotels," reports one camper. Another mentions, "Clean bathhouse with 4 separate rooms with toilets and showers."
Reserve early during peak seasons: Availability can be limited, especially at popular coastal sites. "The park was filled with friendly campers who made this place enjoyable. The price was a win. The site itself was very basic without Wi-Fi and an old fashion looking water pump," reports one RVer.
Consider pad materials: Different RV parks offer varying site surfaces. "Level concrete pads with full hookups and cable. Newish with fine laundry/bath/shower/office facilities. The real draw is the beach just across the street, and the casinos down the road," notes a visitor to Gulf Beach RV Resort.
Check for big rig accommodations: Not all parks can accommodate larger RVs. "With ample slanted and elongated parking lanes for your parking pleasure, all of the sites come equipped with the typical 30/50 amp electrical hook-ups, waste disposal and water connections," reports a reviewer at Lakeview RV Resort.
