  Jeff Busby Campground, Milepost 193.1 — Natchez Trace Parkway

  Great FREE and cozy camping

  This site is a very popular one night stay about mid-point on the Natchez Trace Parkway. The way the campground is constructed makes this a unique place to stay.

  The campsites are very close together causing lots of social interactions. That's the best and worst thing about the campground.

  The park service provides nice bathrooms, garbage cans throughput the campground, picnic tables and multiple pullouts.

  The park also has a paved road and hiking trail to a viewpoint. The road is less than a mile and the trail is over a mile and has some good elevation changes.

  We enjoyed the atmosphere of frequent conversations with other campers. Some kept to themselves...we just waived and smiled.

  Eagle Point Primitive Campground

  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.

  Eagle Point Primitive Campground

  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.

  Teckville Campground

  No one will answer the phone s in Mississippi

  More rural campground area

  This might be one of my favorite places to camp on Enid lake. It is a favorite for many locals and more off the beaten track. Has showers bathrooms playground boat ramp and beach for the campers and picnickers that come to the lake. RV spots with or without full hookup. Reservations available online

  Small but decent

  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.

  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.

  Free camping on the Natchez Trace

  Paved 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.

  Pats Bluff

  Quiet and plesant

  They have large flat sites. Some with full hookup some just P/W. Reserve on line. We were there in Feb not busy at all. COE was responsive to bathroom cleaning issue. Host was very friendly. Camp ground is very clean but went for a hike along the shore and the trash was off the chart!!!

  One of the best ACE campgrounds in the area

  We have stayed here many times on our way south in January and found it great Recently they installed sewer for full hookup in all sites This year we ended up staying for 6 weeks in the area on ACE campgrounds and 14 days here and we liked this best .

  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.

  Great solo camping experience

  Campsite was great. Beautiful lake and not crowded. Night time was quiet. Really enjoyed the views and relaxing environment. This is a great location to disconnect, but do not expect the amenities other sites offer (bathrooms, electricity, water, etc.).

  Howard Stafford Park Campground

  Nice Muni site

  Last minute stop at this small muni campground/park. Clean grounds with friendly host. Photo from our site #7 overlooking the lake. Non campers kicked out at 8pm and gates are locked. All campers get a key for after hours entry/exit. Beautiful little spot.

  Howard Stafford Park Campground

  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.

  Beach Point - Sardis Lake

  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.

  Hardly any other people around. Very run down and lots of bugs. Stopped over here for a quick camp spot on a road trip, and it was fine for this. Wouldn’t go out of the way to come back

  Oak Grove - John W. Kyle State Park

  It is ok

  This is a fisherman's camp. The campground is only half available. Most bathrooms are closed due to a storm 4 years ago. Not well maintained and no one around to help with registration. I guess if you like to fish it would be ok.
