    Prophet Bridge

    Boat ramp with picnic area

    Out of the way. Decent sized parking lot with boat ramp, picnic tables, and trash cans. Unfortunately it seems like the regulars dont know what the trash cans are for.

    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.

    Chickasaw Hill

    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

    Great fishing & camping

    This is a very popular camping area with very good fishing it is fairly well maintained with showers and bathrooms hookups for RVs tents etc mostly quiet and reservations can be made online. Close by many other camping areas on Enid lake, a general store, the hatchery, floating dock, fishing Pier on the channel, playgrounds, Beach, basketball, and corps of engineer field office.

    Prophet Bridge

    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.
