LegendThis park is all concrete with level sites. Huge dog park and close to any type of store you might need. Clean facilities and very nice staff.
LegendMississippi does a great job of maintaining their COE campgrounds. Nice, spacious spots underneath large Pine trees. Water views and access to the Lower Lake. There is a popular swim beach, boat launch and boat dock. The spillway is also close by for fishing. Do not get this park confused with the John Kyle State Park Campground that is directly next to this one. This park is much nicer!
GuideMy stay won't likely be like yours. First, I drove in while Mississippi was under a blanket of snow. All the roads in Holly Springs and the rest of the state were treacherous with packed snow and ice following a week of unseasonably frigid weather across the southern midwest.
That said, the 2 rangers working at Wall Doxey went out of their way to set me up with a parking place in the practically empty campground, putting me in the youth camp, finding me an extension cord to hook up to power and allowing me access to the group camp for a bathroom and shower.
This was necessary because many areas were either in the middle of renovation, inaccessible or out of service due to frozen pipes. To say these ladies went out of their way to get me situated is an understatement. They were heroines!
The camp has loads of retro charm. A big mid-century lodge, picnic area, swimming lake, frisbee golf and a 2 mile hiking trail around the lake. I enjoyed a walk thru the snow and the comfort of having a safe and caring place to stay during my trip through Mississippi.
I suspect it will be the same for you even if your visit is under far different circumstances.
TravelerNice campground next to Graceland. Clean park. Open area for dogs to walk.
ScoutWe showed up after hours and the security guard was able to help us get situated. We walked right over for a tour of Graceland and the Elvis museums. Also, if your hungry, call Marlows BBQ and they’ll send over their pink limo for easy pickup and drop off. They also have a small playground and area to walk your dog. Overall, we enjoyed our stay. Very friendly staff!
LegendWe spent two nights here (May 26-28, 2022). This is a decent, easy access CG with level pull through and back-in gravel sites in Memphis. It is located next to Elvis Presley’s Memphis and across the street from Graceland- it’s a busy area. There are a number of activities available: walking trail, swimming pool, playground/horse shoes (both in disrepair) and dog walk. We did not make use of the laundry, bathrooms or showers. It is a great base camp to visit everything Elvis, Beale Street (34 points of interest) and the Memphis area. The WiFi was great as was cell phone reception. We would stay here again.
GuideWith less than 20 sites this is a small comfortable campground with full hookups. 30 minutes to Tupelo or Oxford, this place splits them down the middle. The site is a level concrete pad with 50/30 amp, water and sewer. 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. The camp manger is a nice as could be and reached out after I left to return something I left behind. A great small park easy to get to.
TravelerMississippi needs to put some funding behind the park, could be a real gem. Overall we had a great stay and I would recommend the campground.
ScoutNice park with pull through at late notice , great staff. 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.
