    Unsafe

    I had a horrible experience at this campsite. Rolled up to find one (miserable) couple there. They were blasting music out of their car which is whatever and I waved hello and they just stared. Multiple cars came thru the campsite at night, shining their headlights every which way. Even though it says don’t enter past a certain point unless you are camping, this is clearly a spot for locals to do what they cannot do at home. At 2am I hear barking and one of my dogs busts through my tent. I go out there and there is a pack of wild dogs scouring the campsite. They weren’t terrifying or coming at us, but it was still scary. No more than 10 mins later two cars surround my tent with headlights, which is really scary for anyone, but I am a young woman traveling alone. Apparently the couple called the cops saying my dogs had been barking all night. There was brief barking and it was the wild dogs who were actually eating the trash the evil couple left out. Even if my dogs were barking, why is surrounding my tent with only headlights at 2am appropriate? I couldn’t see anything. Never saw a ranger, immediately left in the morning. Sorry for the essay, just hope to spare someone a similar experience. It is beautiful tho.

    Lake?

    The lake is currently drained because they are working on the dam. Made reservations online. Pretty much all the sites I thought would be easy to get into were reserved, so I chose this one. Website said it was good for 53' unit and 2 vehicles. We have a 36' 5th wheel and it was a little difficult to get in. Someone previously knocked down the site number post. I also had a problem with the post for site 31 being in the way. I finally just backed in by driving on the grass. It only fits the 2 vehicles if each one has 2 tires in the grass. It turns out that all of those reserved sites online were empty. There is hardly anyone here. It would have been nice to have one of those angled for better entry. Other than the empty lake and difficult backing in it is a nice park. Standard COE fare.

    This is a must visit

    This place was absolutely gorgeous. I was alone in the campground both nights i was there with a couple of people coming in during the day to have lunch at one of the picnic tables.

    I might have worked on my tanlines 🤫

    I fit pretty good in my 24' motorhome but woupd be leery of something too much bigger. 

    Do not try to come at night. It is pitch black and steep drop offs. 

    Really nice set up for tents if thwt is your thing.

    Arrived at the park a little after 11pm and the gate was locked with a sign saying “Closed 10pm-6am.” On the website it said “first come first serve.” Very disappointing, ended up driving another 30 min and booking a hotel.

    Fishing, boat ramp, picnic spot

    We have spent many nights fishing under the bridge. Haven't camped per se but many people fish the general area. There is parking lot and picnic area by the boat ramp. No amenities and if you want to explore other than the boat ramp area you need AWD or 4WD or it's a pretty good hike. This is more of an overnight fishing/parking/boating area for people passing through who don't require all the amenities of the campgrounds in the area.

    Good spot for camping and fishing

    Most of the campers you see here are RVs. We camped in tent, wish they had tent pads. Good view of the lake, nice clean bathroom. Spacious depending on which site you choose. We reached there in the night, the camp numbers were hard to read as they were painted on the floor. If you fish they have fish cleaning station in the campsite entrance.

    Decent campground, disappointing shower and bathroom

    Small, quiet campground on reservoir. Plenty of space and privacy between sites. Concrete pad was level and ample. Any size rig could fit into these sites. Each site has its own garbage cans. Water and electric at each site. Dump station in campground. Verizon signal was good. Bathrooms had prison style toilets and showers were functional but dirty. Showers were in dire need of repair to floor and deep cleaning. Bathrooms were maintained daily but not adequately cleaned. No soap in bathroom, only air dryer for hands, no paper towels, no garbage can in bathrooms. There were unattended dogs on leashes/in crates at a couple of sites that barked aggressively when people passed by. Owners were absent for good part of day. Nearby lake access road passes right by campground is routinely used by locals. Not staffed by COE official.

    A lot has changed since some of these reviews

    This seems a very typical NFS campground. Lots of spots some with electric and water and a number which are primitive. It is rustic. The electric service has an open ground situation so my camper wouldn't take it which was fine but a lot of the year could be an issue. There are bathrooms and private showers. I did not need or use the facilities but they were clean and seemed functional. I am literally the only camper here which frankly I think is wonderful. Tons of places to walk and a lot of nice views of the lake. I will definitely be back and use it for an overnight on my way out or back to my winter location.

    Great spot on Enid Lake

    Stopover in January. Left one day early because of imminent weather on our route home. Otherwise would have stayed longer. Beautiful trees, lake, and drive. Enid Lake is big with lots of walkable shoreline. Bathhouse extra large and clean. It even smelled good if you can believe that. Large sites with elbow room. Our site 27 had great views with full Hookups. Site 30 would be optimal site with view and pull through.

    Nice weekend, great weather, few bugs. The bathrooms were decent for campground bathrooms. Plenty of firewood to forage. Campsite was relatively clean. Neighbors were very close and made it hard to feel like I had any privacy.

    I ended up leaving early because of a creepy experience with a man who made me feel uncomfortable…even unsafe. Crappy ending to an otherwise great weekend.

    Small but quiet and cheap

    Small campground attached to a public use park. Gated after dark with older but usable bathrooms and showers. Has a splash pad, a basketball court, and several piers on the lake for fishing. You can hear cows in the distance from across the lake.

    Can’t beat the price at $22/night. We stopped in for a night in our teardrop trailer on our way farther up north.

    Tupelo is 30 minutes away with the Elvis Birthplace museum and other attractions. There’s a gas station at the entrance to the park for snacks and ice.

    Quiet campsites, pretty view

    We reserved campsites 13 and 14, at the far end, behind the restrooms. You have to park in the parking lot and carry your stuff to the site. But it’s a tent-only campground and there were only a couple other tents there so it was quiet and peaceful. Our lots were large.

    There was plenty of firewood to be collected on site.

    There’s a boat launch but it didn’t add significant traffic or noise.

    The bathrooms were…campsite bathrooms. Not the best, not the worst. No locked on stall doors. No soap. But the toilets flushed so there’s that.

    Very pretty view of Sardis Lake.

    The negatives: The flies!! They were so so bad! And bighty!! My poor dogs were covered in flies, as were we.

    Other negative is just about a previous camper. At our site, we picked up literally a case’s worth of Coors beer bottle caps. Evidently they didn’t throw away a single one, even though garbage is provided and literally just right there.
