GuideWould try to get one by the lake or up by the office. The campsite we had was not level & hard to get camper level. Could not put a tent up due to being on a hill. Would go back.
LegendNice smaller park with friendly staff
RangerTucked away in the midst of a big city this tiny state park packs a big punch. Walking distance to museums and a beautiful lake we were satisfied. Even saw an alligator in the water within fifteen minutes of our arrival.
ScoutQuiet and nice views. No alcohol allowed.
TravelerLarge park with monthly and daily sites. Boat ramp. Wooded and open sites. Friendly employees.
GuideWe spent a weekend in October here and absolutely loved it. We had a tent site and my only complaint about that was a leaking spicket that drained onto campsites. The trick or treating is the best. Start right when you can because there are so many sites offering candy or haunted areas. The spook trail is top tier! And there were plenty of activities throughout the day for the kids. Water park is heated which I didn’t know and wished we brought swim suits. Had tons of laughs and memories with my family. So much so we already booked for next October and have more family coming!!

ScoutWe were planning to stay a second night in a better location on the resevoir… so we moved to avoid the sound, fury and allergens of a half dozen lawn tractor mowers circling us. The management notified us that there would be a $20. Fee for changing spaces plus the fees for an additional night and were asked to return to our original site until check in time if we didn’t want to pay the additional 20 bucks.
We moved to the bathhouse, showered, hung out by the pool until check out time and departed for another campground. Sometimes management treats guests according to the rules of an HOA, versus the hospitality industry. It was kind of sad.
We did enjoy the site, the pool and the water views. We didn’t enjoy the sound of traffic and grounds maintenance early in the morning. We might return one day, but much wiser, indeed.
ScoutWe enjoyed our night at LeFleurs Bluff. We were surrounded by giant RVs but it proved to be a very quiet respite in the middle of the city. Keep your check in code handy as it is necessary info when arriving or departing via the security gate. We hope to return one day and stay longer!
The previous night we tried to reserve a spot here online around 3 or 4pm. As this wasn’t possible on we found another campground in Ridgeland with a more flexible reservation system and a swimming pool! It was more like a gold course on the river than a camp ground but we were pleased to have options.

Wildlife viewing: Morning coffee with nature sightings. "Had my morning coffee and watched a 7ft gator swimming and paying us no mind. Most amazing thing I've seen.

Very quiet and I'd stay here again and again. Love that it was close to town because one night we decided to just go out for dinner."
