"Beautiful campsite surround trees. Very quiet and secluded. There is water and electric hookups at each site and a dump station on the grounds as you leave. This was a very clean and safe campground."
"Has a small lake and dock for fishing, paddling, etc... They have rentals on site. Has a few miles of decent flat trails, all of which are young kid friendly."
"Nice lake at 102 sq acres in size. Did have an issue that most sites are only 50 or 30amp hookups only, so I had to borrow a 30 to 120 adapter."
"Very clean Friendly staff Lots of activities in park, and many more along the nearby Natchez Trace Parkway.
Cons: Game room has seen better days. Not very many sites with sewer."
"That’s probably not something I would have said before visiting the Meriwether Lewis Campground near Hohenwald, Tennessee. This campground is amazing."
"I did not expect to find something like this in Tennessee! Needless to say, I was pleasantly surprised. It is a cute little campground with clean bathrooms nearby."
"I do wish the campground was on the river or had water views, but it’s close by, so that’s okay.
There is a nice lodge with restaurant. The cabins here are extremely nice!"
"Campsite#18 is located near the bathrooms and shower areas. The restroom and shower building had 8 individual shower rooms with fold down benches."
$7 - $30 / night
"It is on a nice stretch of the Tennessee River, and you can swim, fish, and boat there. Plenty of camp sites and very spacious. Popular with the locals and fairly secluded."
"Lots of shade close to lake with wildlife too"
$7 - $35 / night
$26 / night
"We were fortunate enough to get a spot right on the lake.
It is such a perfect place to get away from it all.
We were there for 5days . We got on the Natchez Trace parkway. Also we went to Tupelo."
"Site 13 with electric and lake side was perfectly level and near restroom with showers, which were large!"
"The sites are rather narrow with varying sizes and locations for outdoor living space. Pay close attention to the states website regarding vehicle size maximums."
"It was back away from the water but we had a clear view to the water. Beautiful park."
$16 - $25 / night
"Visited Shiloh National Battle field and got ice cream near the campsite from “The Outpost.” Overall a good experience!"
ScoutStayed in A25 RV/Tent spot and had a beautiful view of the lake. Great little hiking trails near by. We ended up in this spot because the dispersed camping area had tornado destruction from years ago. So it was a bit pricey for just tent camping ($46)
TravelerThe scenery is beautiful. Plenty of fish activity with multiple campsites on the water with a steady breeze. No Potable Water sites. Bathrooms do get cleaned in the morning. Using Verizon and AT&T, service is great averaging between 3-4 bars. Spoke with some of the Rangers. Renovation plans are in place coming January 2026 to make this campground gated with PIN access for paying campers and will be adding RV parking. There is currently an issue with individuals driving to the campsites throughout the day and night utilizing the park’s amenities without paying. First night at least 5 vehicles drove in and took control of the bathrooms/showers for hours throughout the night. One came out and started, what sounded like, a chainsaw. My belief was to intimidate us given we were the only paying campers and we looked at their direction due to the noise they were making. Constant yelling and argumentative behavior among the individuals. It takes the Rangers 20-30 minutes to arrive if called so you have to ride out the uninvited guests and hope they leave you be. The Rangers themselves, are very polite and they were honest about the issue. However with how much ground they have to cover with limited staff and resources they can’t control the situation until the renovations begin. My advice, if you want to avoid potential conflict and harassment wait till the park renovates.
ScoutGreat little spot if you’re looking for a quiet get away close to some great outdoor adventures. My husband myself and three kids 2 toddlers and infant all fit comfortably. A river nearby for kayaking and a local park spot great for creek walking and a swim!
ScoutI stayed 2 weeks in June and came back on the first of July. I felt blessed to be able to stay, until July 7th. I love Mulberry Creek Camp! Misty and Jason provide the cleanest, neatest and friendliest campground site, that I have ever stayed at! I plan to come back in September! It is so peaceful and tranquil. Turning down Mulberry Creek Camp road makes my endorphins rise and the relaxation begins immediately. Have I even mentioned, the spectacular Fireworks Display, Mulberry Creek Camp provided? It was so awesome that not just their 2 Campgrounds were entertained, but also the surrounding small towns. Thank you Misty and Jason, for providing entertainment for all, your hard work does not go unnoticed! See you in September!
ScoutThis campground has continually gone downhill since it's inception. I sold my membership for about a tenth of what I paid for it and still used it a couple times a year just paying the fees. Full timers killing the park and little maintenance done on the sites. Better RV Campground near this place.
LegendSaraj from The Dyrt here. Hidden Oasis at White Oak Landing really lives up to its name. This peaceful RV park sits right on the Tennessee River, so it feels quiet and private in all the best ways. If you're looking for a relaxed, scenic place to unwind, this one’s worth the stop!
LegendThe new section - sites 38-62- is amazing! Just perfect. Beautiful large sites with lake views and perfectly paved and landscaped. The rest of the campground needs the same treatment asap and is in rough shape. A very quiet place. The swinging bridge and trail is very cool! The river is fantastic. The only disappointment for us was the lack of swimming opportunities. The pool has long been out of service and swimming isn't allowed in the lake. The river probably has some swimming holes but was flooded and brown when we were there. The people working there are very kind.
GuideWe were sent to a site in Phase 2, drove at least a mile from the amenities to get there. Site had not been mown for quite some time. Weeds were tall. In fact, we had to search for the sewer connection. We left 3 days before the end of our reservation.
ScoutThe owner is kind but the lady at the office will treat you terribly if you ask for any kind of accommodations as a disabled persons. It looks nice there but how is any disabled human supposed to live at a place that won't even change policies for the FHA laws. Even explained this to her and she just stopped texting. I'm assuming she hasn't done much research into laws. But apparently they are all under the table with no actual insurance at all because it's not a legitimate business under the government.
