It is ok

This is a fisherman's camp. The campground is only half available. Most bathrooms are closed due to a storm 4 years ago. Not well maintained and no one around to help with registration. I guess if you like to fish it would be ok.

Still nice but it has gotten noisy

This is our second review of this campground. While still a well maintained campground, the noise is ridiculous. The fellow a couple of spots over has mowed the grass of his campsite three times since arriving. Nothing like a loud gas mower running constantly to grate on the nerves.

Great COE campground!

This is a great little COE campground on Sardis lower lake. It is clean and well maintained. Bathrooms/showers are clean and work well. They have a courtesy dock for boats and a fishing pier with benches. A nice little playground in the center of the park. It can get a little crowded at times, but that’s a good sign!

Nice COE Campground

Mississippi 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!

Oakgrove Campground, Sardis MS

Most sites are reasonably level with some longer than others. Some are located in Pine trees. The bad part is that they don't take reservations, so it's a gamble on what you get.
