The price is great. We were here a month so about 3 weeks too long. There are really no amenities…no picnic table, bare bones. With our tow vehicle we’re at about 58’ and we fit with no problem. It rained for about a wk and the grass outside our motorhome was standing water and mud. We had 2 dogs and they had muddy wet feet for days and tracked inside. That’s not the campgrounds fault, not sure how they would resolve that issue. But just FYI…try to park on
higher ground. The interstate is super close and you hear lots of road noise 24/7. The campground is very clean, sites were easy to get into which is huge!!!! We didn’t use showers so no idea about them. John, who I believe is the manager, is a nice fellow who makes you feel quite welcome. Restaurants are close as well as Walmart. It’s a short drive to the beach.
Guide
At the time we visited, the high were in the low 80's, mine you this was November. Camp host very friendly and helpful.
Traveler
I wish I wouldn’t known this was only accessible via boat, which in hindsight was obvious from the title lol.

We escaped an early winter cold spell in Michigan and made the thousand mile trip to the Mississippi coast. It was worth the drive. The campground includes 52 spaces most of which can accommodate an RV and a vehicle. The spaces are quite small and close to one another. Water and electric are included. There is a campground host on site. We saw a park Ranger just once during our visit. There is a railroad nearby and it is quite loud in the evening. There was no issue for us as we are accustomed to train noises. There is also a group campground nearby, which was very noisy late into the night. I got the sense that this was not customary. The campground is located in Ocean Springs, Mississippi, which is next to Biloxi. Outside the campground, the golf beaches are beautiful, white sand. The bathrooms and showers are adequate. There is a dump station in the campground. We definitely recommend and will come back.

We stayed in the new loop @ $45/night. Unfortunately, the loop is one way, and because of the way the sites are laid out, it forces you to back in on your blind side. The disappointing thing is that we contacted the park ahead of our stay to change our arrival date due to the possibility of a tropical storm hitting the area. They would not refund us for two days, but would issue a credit for a future stay within a year. We live nowhere near Biloxi, and will never be able to use the credit, and they do not care because they have our money already. The worst sites in the park ended costing us $85/night. Don't recommend this park.
Scout
Nice location if it weren't for the truck noise, subwoofer bandits and susceptibility to flooding. The management is non-existent except for when it's time to be stupid.
They have some very obnoxious full-time RVs there who who prey on short-term visitors with obnoxious motorcycle behavior. Avoid the fire pit circle... Loud drunk and incredibly obnoxious people.
Scout
Good place to go on a camping trip
Scout
If you are in sites 1-38 they are wooded with some privacy between sites. Some have a nice view of the lake. We were in site 34 which was spacious. Easy access to the All Ranks Club and a small Exchange.
Guide
We stayed the weekend before Halloween and it was a very busy weekend in the campground. Some sites were extravagantly decorated and trick or treating following a golf cart parade was fun. The park is nice. The only reason I did give 5 stars is because the boardwalks over the lake were in desperate need of repair and unsafe.
Guide
We enjoyed our mid October stay. Great playground and splash pad for the children. We walked the nature trail and enjoyed the river views from our campsite. This park packs them in during the summer months but was pretty quiet this time. The park is clean and very family friendly. Cell service: Verizon service with 2 bars and AT&T one bar sometimes none. We were able to stream the LSU Tigers beat Arkansas on our Verizon hot spot.
Traveler
Nice small campground. The shower was clean yet dated. Had multiple sites with the lake view. Many of the campsite have campers that are staying the maximum stay. So some of the premium site are occupied by them.
LegendBeautiful campground with large spaces. Wildlife is in abundance. Hosts kept us informed of the weather. Close to everything.
Scout
I went ahead and booked online the favorite spot, hog's wallow. The spot is really nicely arbored, but big spiders all over the place, and ants nests everywhere as well, as soon as I got my food out they were all over . Went to see the shower and it was smelly and dirty as heck. It was enough for me to leave after an hour of visit. I asked for a refund , but they were not willing to do so, hence my comment.
Legend
Beautiful park. Could use just a little more space. Lots of wildlife and amenities. Cabins, laundry, pavilions, pool, propane and store.
GuideThis was a great find in the middle of Mississippi on a trip from Hot Springs Village to the beach. Looked to be new and well-kept. Staff was efficient and helpful. Sites were arranged around a lake and level. We would stay here again.
Scout
This campground has been temporarily closed for 4 years and when I last spoke to the rangers office, there was no schedule for re-opening.
Traveler
Arrived here today. By the time I got camp set up, the host stopped by welcomed me and said if there are issues to get with them. Very friendly!
GuideThis was the nicest campground we stayed at on our 4 week trip. Our level site was on a lovely pond, with a friendly duck. This is the first architecturally designed KOA facility I've seen in two years of camping in our RV. It looked new. It was nicely done. The pool is a good size, the communal kitchen area has barstools on two sides. They had two TVs and an inside/outside fireplace. The bathrooms have granite countertops, and very nice tile. I wish we'd brought our dog because they had a professional quality bathing/grooming room with a professional dog dryer. There are walking trails that look lovely. The woman who checked us in couldn't have been nicer, as was everyone we encountered at the campground. I wish we'd been able to stay longer and we hope to come back soon.
Legend
Stayed here because it was so close, literally a block away, from the Mississippi Colosseum, for granddaughters cheer competition. We checked it and were greeted at arrival, with information packet. FHU, back-in concrete pad, and small dog park. A nice clubhouse and facilities, although we did not use. Directly across the street from the beach, perfect for photos. Clean pool but too cold to use. Very close to neighbors and backed up to apts, which the garbage truck came super early on Sat, dumpster on other side of fence. We were up early, but if you like relaxing and peacefulness, probably not my choice. Close to lots of area attractions, stores and restaurants. Many closed for off season, however. Waffle House next door to RV park. Good for short stay!
Scout
Pitbull friendly they didn’t bay an eye. Great staff super clean place. Friendly people.
TravelerWe just drove in hoping that there was a suitable site for a 30’ motorhome available. There were 3. The campground is more suitable for tents and small trailers. The cost for a site with electric was $15.00 for a senior. $22.00 normally. Joey, the attendant, was so helpful and very knowledgeable. There is a dump. Will come back.
Guide
this is a small private campground. Sites were roomy and mgm't was very helpful. They have a nice 'laundry' room and can't beat $1.50/washer & $1.00 for dryer. A short drive to Hattiesburg.
Guide
Close to the water, and the beach is well maintained, but the water is so shallow that at low tide you don't get rolling waves that are usually part of the a beachfront experience. And there were lots of sand gnats, at least during our earlly April visit. Otherwise, we considered the price reasonable for full hookups, and the speed limit on the adjacent road is slow (25 mph) with little traffic, at least during the week.
The previous reviewer indicated that this place is not big rig friendly. Don't know what was there when that review was written in 2021, but as of this writing, there are two separate lots to park your RV. The north lot is certainly tight, but the south lot has angled concrete aprons that are of ample size for big rigs.
ScoutDeer Island is an amazing location to fully appreciate the natural splendor of the Mississippi Gulf Coast! We can join minecraftle game together. My spouse, a few friends, our teenagers(a group of six) and I decided to embark on a tour with Happy Daze Kayaking in Biloxi, MS, and we were extremely satisfied! This particular excursion involved pedal kayaking, which was a new experience for us. The journey from the launch point to the island was just a short and enjoyable few minutes. The owner of the company provided us with valuable insights about the wildlife and ensured we didn't miss anything noteworthy. Pedaling was definitely the way to go! It wasn't challenging and allowed us to sit back and relax. It's advisable to bring bug spray as there might be occasional insects. We had a delightful picnic lunch on the island and had a fantastic time overall. I highly recommend considering Happy Daze Kayaking if you're seeking enjoyable activities on the Mississippi Gulf Coast.
RangerThis place was literally so sketchy we left instead of staying the night here
Ranger
Came here for two nights because our initial campground was too sketchy. Wayyyyyyyy overpriced but got the job done.
Scout
Loved the little walk into the spot. Explored the best spot to pitch our tent . Peace and quiet. Not far to the car for supplies. 30 yards and that’s it. Great location to the beach and gulf
