"In the middle off Mississippi just a few miles off Natchez Trace parkway is this lovely little campground on a lake. And super affordable."
"We stayed in site 18 by the water, most lakeside sites are about 20 feet from shore, and are mostly grass besides the driveway and tent pad."
$43 / night
"Tombigbee SP
Elvis was born in Tupelo, Mississippi and Tombigbee SP is a good spot to base your exploration out of.
I overnighted here enroute to Alabama."
"We have camped at several MS state parks near Memphis (Tishomingo, Wall Doxey) and have left feeling like MS didn’t have a lot to offer, but Tombigbee State Park is great."
$32 / night
"Roads are drivable of course but need to be funded, come on Mississippi and step up.. 15-20 minutes from a supercenter on West Main Street in Tupelo. Tupelo is lovely and where we actually live."
"Trace State Park near Tupelo, MS. Once you get into Tupelo the signage directing you to the park is easy to find and follow."
$32 - $34 / night
"Really well situated spots, very level and well maintained. Showers could use an upgrade but the worked none the less. Lake is very pretty. Quiet and comfortable stay all around."
"The site is small, without trees, and very close to site 73, offering no privacy. Some larger sites have trees, and offer water access."
$33 / night
"Stopped here for a night traveling through Mississippi. It is a little out of the way, but quiet. You drive down the Natches trace to get here."
$34 - $36 / night
"Our 3/3/21-3/6/21 stay at Site 60 provides easy access to a fishing pier, walking paths and enjoyable sunsets."
"Whitten Park campground is located on a peaceful waterway far enough from the highway to feel secluded but not difficult to access. Each site is surrounded by trees."
"Location is Very Informative, as you drive in, there are signs with the '800' # to get a fishing license, or) permit."
$25 - $35 / night
"The campground is next to a big county park with a playground, boat ramp and fishing docks. Nice walking paths along the lakes edge provides a great place for a view of the sunset."
"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."
$40 / night
"Close to town but didn’t visit. Reasonable at $40. Some sites have Wi Fi I think. Short nice walk and area for dogs. Not far from freeway."
"From inside the park it’s hard to believe you’re so close to the city. 2 mins from restaurants and shopping. Sites are pull through and on gravel. Relatively close to one another but not bothersome."
$35 - $45 / night
"Beautiful property with great host they have a short trail that goes around the property and a beautiful lake to enjoy"
"The land and lake are beautiful."
ScoutRuth’s arts are indeed fine, and the wine is even finer. We had an amazing time. Not exactly what you’d expect and not exactly an RV park, though there are electric and water hook ups but no sewer. The wine was your traditional southernly made wines with bit more complexity than I expected. We arrived late and she still offered a tasting and it even ran longer than I had expected which was nice. I highly recommend this place. We even bought a whole bunch of grapes so we could bring em’ home and make jelly. It was lovely. They were lovely. The arts and wine were of course, lovely.
ScoutSmall quaint winery and art house , wonderful host so sweet, pleasant conversation did wine tasting, was quite enjoyable, quiet camping Spot off the beat and path, nice hook up for water and electric, so private and quiet , great property for walking dogs, price was very reasonable and the wine was nice, bought a bottle😊
ScoutGood spot to stop on a trip or visiting the area.
TravelerRich and Ruth are excellent hosts. Rich makes the wine while Ruth is your main host. Quiet little spot with power and water hookups available. As an added bonus on the 2nd and 4h Saturday of every month Ruth makes a home cooked meal for her guests and they bring in local live entertainment.
GuideWe’re so happy that we drove 20 minutes off the interstate to get here! Such a wonderful place!
GuidePros: Clean, relatively quiet even when full, lots of sites with direct, clean access to lakefront.
Cons: not much level space between camper pads, access roads need replacing, sketchy cell service
LegendWe heard about this new RV park through a blog email and decided to check it out. Following our GPS from I-22, we had no trouble finding the campground (CG). We arrived at 3:00 PM to find the office closed, with a sign on the door indicating they would return at 3:30. Although we had prepaid for our reservation, we had not been assigned a site number. We called the contact number and left a message. A few minutes later, we received a call back with our site number and were informed that we could proceed to site 26 and check in once the staff member returned from lunch. Site 26 with FHUs is 1 of 6 pull through cement sites in the CG. The 4 back-in sites are cement pads. The pad was spacious, providing ample room for our 40’ fifth wheel and F-450 truck. There are two sewer connections on both cement and gravel sites, which is a nice convenience. Water and electric hookups are centrally located on the pad, though the electric connection sits low to the ground, requiring us to bend the surge protector to plug in. The water pressure was adequate at around 40 psi. The CG Wi-Fi worked well for basic tasks such as email and web browsing, including Facebook, though we did not attempt to stream. Facilities include a clean shower and restroom area, as well as a laundry room equipped with four washers and four dryers, each costing$3 per use. During our visit, the small dog run was unavailable due to maintenance or AstroTurf installation. A small playground is located adjacent to it. Most of the sites are pull-through, with a few back-in sites near the cabins. There is highway and train noise, but not too bad. The office carries a selection of snacks, drinks, and some RV essentials. Overall, the CG is a few miles west of Tupelo, with limited attractions nearby. While it offers good amenities and a convenient layout, the remote location may not appeal to those looking for nearby entertainment or dining options. This CG worked well for our overnighter.
LegendStayed 3 nights with friends. Nice spacing between sites and a nice dispersion of FHU sites with electric & water sites. Gave people the option of choosing either and allowed us to still group camp. Verizon signal not great, but good.
RangerNice park due for upgrades in my opinion.
