Most are uphill and very close together but good overnight park
I recently stayed at Movietown RV Park and had an exceptional experience! The amenities were top-notch, and the park was clean and well-maintained. For anyone planning a visit, I highly recommend you to must go. It was incredibly handy during my stay, providing a variety of entertainment options to enjoy during downtime. Give Movietown RV Park a try and enhance your experience with the PikaShow VIP MOD!
We stayed here over Easter and had a great time. Trail was flooded out less than .5 miles in, which I heard can be typical of this time of year bc of reservoir they drain near there. Plenty of kayak access to all the lakes around. Gnats were so bad we had to stay in the tent to stay sane in the afternoon and most of the evening. They was one other group that tent camped for one night but otherwise everyone had RVs. If you go to tent camp call ahead before booking because some sites have the fire ring on the tent pad. I remember site 10 definitely does. It was packed but pretty much quiet the whole time except a lot of traffic. At night you hear the highway sometimes. Bathrooms are okay, washer and dryer work great.
Big site no fire ring no other camp sites that I have seen
Only site I see on FSR 526 Big site you could pull through with a bigger camper no fire ring but you can see where they have had a fire
Had a night of rain and lightning when we stayed there !! Camped on the hill passed the boat launch nice to hear the flowing water when the thunder died down . I would like to stay again on a dry night .. packed up early and left between showers the next morning
It is a unique place just north of a dam ( low head dam ) that has another park and boat ramp for fishermen and a very friendly family owned bait store between the parks Tripp family store ! Non ethanol gas 6am to 6 pm grill is open ,
Found this sweet campground traveling cross country. Quiet, large level concrete pad, 30 & 50 amp, water, dump station, $35 after tax. Even tho it was in town,. It was so quiet you could hear the birds on the pond. Gravel road entrance is decent. Only drawback was the burn ban.
We will definitely come back to this campground. When you come to the campground , nightly rentals are first come first serve. You drive back and pick your available spot and go back to the office to pay. We were lucky to get a beautiful water spot this time. It’s clean and spots are a concrete pad. Right outside the campground is a Kroger across the street. It’s convenient to lots of things but tucked away as a quiet getaway.
We wanted to be near Jackson, Ms, but not too near. This fits the bill. Lot of trees, very small and private - only 15 sites, most were empty. Clean bathrooms and great showers. Drive thru sites mostly. Sites have 30 amps(not sure about 50), water and sewer. Good 5G connection on AT&T
It’s a pity the place is so dirty, especially the bathhouse.
It’s a pity because the property itself is of stunning beauty…
There is lots to love; bbq pits, fire places, all kind of canoe activities, a river with fresh and nice water… it’s mush and green. Bring repellent!
Park is right near Jackson, but you can’t even tell while you’re there. We were originally assigned site 2 after providing the office with the size of our rig, but found that it was much smaller than expected when we arrived. Site 2 would be good for up to a 26 footer, but not much larger. The office folks were very accommodating and we ended up staying at site 10 and it was great! Not too close to any other site, faces the water but not right on the water. Also very close to the facilities but I can’t give a review since we didn’t use them. Thunderstorm came through our second night there, dumped a metric ass ton of rain but all trails and roads were just fine the next morning. The only big con I have for site 10 is that one of the benches for the picnic table was missing/broken. Benches are cement base with a wooden seat and looks like someone not so great at backing their rig may have taken the bench out. Only thing left of it is two cement pillars with some rebar sticking out - bent over and not sharp so it doesn’t pose a safety hazard. We saw a small 5-6 foot gator in the lake on day one and fish are very active. Will definitely be back.
Very nice owners and well kept campground.
This is one of the best campgrounds around hands down plenty of space not crowded and the people that work there are super friendly and helpful. We go there all the time.
We stayed here for one night as we were just passing through on a longer road trip. This was one of the better state park campgrounds in Mississippi that we have visited. The sites were clean and spacious. The ladies bathroom was a complete disaster though. It appears as it if hadn’t been cleaned in days and all the toilets were “full”. Gross! The dump station also smelled horrendous, so we just kept driving as we didn’t have much to dump. This would normally be a 3 star for me, but giving 4 stars compared to other MS State Parks north of this location.
The host was very nice and accommodating. We was able to pull in at 6pm on a Friday night. There's showers, bathrooms, a pool and laundry room. The area is shaded with big beautiful trees and a decent sized pond. Besides the showers needing a fresh coat of paint, I'd definitely stay here again! We felt safe.
Convenience of nearby restaurants & Kroger, but still nice quiet & peaceful location to unwind after my other activities in area. Great shade in sunnier weather and clean bathhouses
Loved camping here!
Miles of trails
All natural with great camp sites
Lots of trails that go for miles. Beautiful campground all natural and clean., Fishing, hiking, biking, swimming.
Can anyone tell me about the primitive camping? My husband and children are planning a camping trip for this weekend over Mother’s Day, we are new to the neshoba county area. I see that fishing has great reviews, but what other amenities are there? Are pets allowed (on leash of course), kids friendly?
It would be perfect if there sewer on-site. Only complaint is I have to go to dump station for black.gray water.
Some sites are shady, some sunny, others limited shade. Campground is part of Ross Barnett Reservoir. Paved sites with grass. Some picnic tables, some grills. Nice bathrooms with 4 shower stalls, all with bench and hooks for dry goods. Cities for shopping 10 miles away.
This campground was our “go to” for weekend getaways for years with our children. From tent camping to RV camping. Fishing, swimming, exploring, to deer petting. We loved this campground and almost positive you will too!!
Sites are roomy. All the things you need-electricity water fire ring and concrete picnic table. Lake playground. Bath house with flush toilets. Could use an update but not bad. Just a beautiful setting.
Great sites although some are a bit tight. The bath house is dated and only 1 washer and dryer but the park itself is great
PROS
No fee to make my own on-line reservation
Site 88 excellent view of lake
Pedestal BBQ grill
Wooden Picnic table top with concrete frame on a concrete slab

3 bars T-MOBILE
CONS

5ft wide campsite fire ring…biggest we’ve ever seen!
Numerous HOMESTEADERS throughout CCC campground. Made campground very “junky” looking with all their “stuff ” piled around in their campsite
Park roadway in very poor condition, potholes connected to potholes! Potholes keep speed at 10 mph or less
Able to hear Interstate 20 road noise
Train noise about every 3 hours
Toilet/shower facility heavily used. Finish peeling off of toilet seats. Women’s stall doors coming apart. No soap. Insufficient TP once the weekend crowds hit. Toilets were not cleaned Saturday
Handicap assessable toilet only in one of the CCC campground loops
Trash dumpsters are in next campground loop so 30 minute walk
No campfire wood for sale in park, but sold at EXXON right outside park entrance
No park WiFi
Loved the park, data a bit iffy in Loblolli loop. No clear shot of Starlink (other loop closed, but sites on lake there would work). T-Mobile 5G & Verizon 4G fine in sites 4 thru 10. Not do good around #24
Facilities great. Sites nicely spaced. Fall colors awesome. Other loop closed for work along the shoreline.
Arrived unexpectedly as Isaac Crerk had zut data coverage, so came in here a week early. Hostess great and very accommodating
