Delta National Forest Site 45/45A and Little Sunflower River provide primitive camping options near Vicksburg, Mississippi. Neither campground features dedicated horse corrals or specialized equestrian facilities based on available data. Delta National Forest Site 45/45A offers more amenities for general camping with picnic tables, fire rings, and lantern poles. Both locations permit tent and RV camping, though hookups are not available at either site. The pit toilets at Little Sunflower River have maintenance issues with infrequent cleaning. Reservations for Delta National Forest must be made through recreation.gov or by calling 877-444-6777.

Delta National Forest charges $7.00 per night per site. The forest contains beautiful cypress trees and bayous throughout the landscape. Access to Delta National Forest involves turning onto Fire Tower Road from Highway 16 near Rolling Fork, with the second turnoff offering a shorter trip on a less potholed gravel road. Campers should be prepared for potentially muddy conditions after rainfall. Alcohol is prohibited in Delta National Forest, and proper food storage is essential due to bears and wildlife in the area. Mosquitoes can be particularly intense during certain seasons. Little Sunflower River offers both drive-in and boat-in access with limited facilities, making it suitable for campers seeking a more rustic experience.

    Delta National Forest Site 45/45A

    Picnic table, fire ring, lantern site with pit toilet and trash, and potable water is available from the Delta Work F.C.

    Off of Highway 16 out of Rolling Fork, MS, we turned onto Fire Tower Road, you can take this road at two different places. We went to the second turn for a shorter trip and the gravel road in is not as pot holed than the first turn. Once you pass thru the open gate travel follow the GPS coordinates for directions. If you love primitive campsites you will love this and you will love this National Forest. We are very partial to primitive sites that are amazing. This is a very small campsite equipped with picnic table, fire ring and lantern pole. You will find some beautiful cypress trees and bayou's scattered through out the forest. Alcohol is NOT allowed in DNF. Food storage needs to be taken serious because of bear and wildlife in the forest. These are right off the gravel road and across from each other. I would guess that during the season you can make a meal out of the mosquitoes or I would guess they will make a meal of you. This site is so beautiful and I can't wait to go back. I know this is primitive but remember you MUST HAVE RESERVATIONS AND HAVE PAID FOR SITE. If it has rained you need to be aware that the site could be muddy. It had been bush hogged and was in great shape.
