Best Equestrian Camping near Wiggins, MS

27 Reviews

Big Foot Horse Trail and Camp offers primitive camping and trail access for equestrians near Wiggins, Mississippi. The free campground has toilet facilities and accommodates both tent and RV camping with drive-in access. The trails wind through forested areas with pine stands surrounding the campsites. The grounds are designed primarily for horse riders, with ample space for trailer parking. Visitors should note the primitive conditions include no drinking water, electric hookups, or shower facilities.

The horse trails connect to the larger De Soto National Forest trail system, providing extensive riding opportunities. Campsites feature picnic tables and allow fires, but riders must bring their own firewood. Horse owners need to manage their animals' waste as no dedicated manure disposal facilities exist on site. The campground terrain consists mostly of natural surfaces without designated horse corrals or stalls. The primitive but beautiful setting attracts equestrians seeking a basic camping experience with direct trail access. Riders should come fully prepared with water for both themselves and their horses as no water hookups are available.

    Flint Creek Waterpark

    Beautiful lake view

    Second time at Flint Creek in Wiggins Mississippi. Stayed during the middle of January of 2021 on site 29.

    The back of the site backs up to the lake, with plenty of beach to fish or hangout. This site would be perfect during the summer if you wanted to swim. The site had full hookups with 50amp connection. Plenty of space between sites. Also there are several shower/restrooms located throughout the Seneca Campground.

    Only thing negative about the site was that it was not level. I had to add an extra step to get in and out of my travel trailer.

    Will definitely go back.

    Flint Creek Waterpark

    Nice and Woodsy

    Flint Creek has a little of everything for everyone. There’s a large lake which is good fishing (there’s a boat launch in the park and in the campground itself) beach swimming areas (one for day use and the other for the campers) there’s an updated water park with slides and a lazy river. The water for this is pumped in from the lake so it’s not a fresh blue water like in a swimming pool! There’s a section of first come first served campsites and a section of reservation only sites. All the sites are blacktopped and are very nice. The bathhouses could use some attention though. The town of Wiggins has lots of restaurants and grocery stores very close by.

    Primative but free

    Campgrounds are beautiful with line forests surrounding the sites. Utilities are primitive but expected for a free campground. Watch where you step! Lots of horse poop.

    Creekside Farm Co.

    Great place!

    I was the only camper there but sites are pretty spread out regardless. We had direct access to the creek. The bathroom, sink, grill, and shower were just a quick walk up the hill. Shower was cold water only but honestly so nice after a hot day. They have tons of vegetation to look at, chickens, turkeys, ducks, geese, and peacocks. There’s a small fishing pond too. You can follow the trail around the back of the pond and see the bunker and balcony. Will definitely be back! Only complaint is the ants were terrible! Idk where they kept coming from but definitely put up anything with food (even in tubs) up while not in use. Dogs are allowed but need to be on a lead. They have two dogs too, Mocha will come around to the campsites and creeks to say hi and want sticks to be thrown. Randy up there was super helpful too and good company. Everyone honestly was just so nice.

    LOVE-LOVE-LOVE this place!

    There were maybe 6 campers here when we arrived at midnight or so- Easy access, large lots, 50amp and under, not a destination but the perfect overnight stop! However, beautiful lake behind it with a wooden walking bridge that crosses the entire thing. I will be here EVERY TIME I cone this way!!

    Flint Creek Waterpark

    Tons of sites and something for everyone!

    Flint creek has TONS of sites with full hook ups in 30 and/or 50 amp and even a primitive (water only) tent sites. Different sections allow folks to feel like they are away from the crowds.  Price is absolutely reasonable and there is night security by staff and local law enforcement.

    The water park has a ton of slides and will keep kids young and old entertained sliding down the hill into the lake.

    Several swimming holes and boat ramps lets you enjoy the lake however you want.

    Great for Overnight

    While maybe not a destination site, it’s great for overnighting. We’ve stayed here for an overnight several years in a row on our way to Gulf Shores from Central AR. Concrete pads, full hookups, excellent satellite reception throughout the park. The RV Park is adjacent to a multi purpose facility. Rodeo, barrel racing, concerts, gatherings, etc. In our stops here, the park has never been more than a 1/3 occupied. Plenty of spaces to choose from. Payment is the honor system. $20 on the way out!

    Flint Creek Waterpark

    Flint creek

    Loved, loved this Campground...This was always our go-to. Lake is always great. Nearby Hiking trail a few geocaches and then there is the water park... I grew up in the old water park and it was great but when they upgraded, and it needed an upgrade bad, all the prices for pat Harrison went up... They have just started clearing the brush around the campsites, much needed, but there are so many things that are in disrepair and are taking a back seat to the water park. The bathrooms are always clean and in great working order... And the views of the lake are phenomenal. I gave it the rating because I see so much potential that is not being used.

    Flint Creek Waterpark

    Lots of space to get in and enjoy the water or just chill!

    Flint Creek is our go to for a quick weekend camping trip. The spots are big, although there are a few waterside ones that are more of a deck style and limit lateral space. With a few different loops, there is a variety of spaces throughout the park. There is even a primitive camping spot for those folks who want nothing to do with modern necessities.

    The park itself is huge with a few beaches in and out of the camping areas. Folks can get sites on the water and pull their boats right up next to their rigs.
