Pearl River WMA - Crawford Landing

Restrooms are portable, no showers, no light. There’s nothing, just space for campers. Some really big trees for a good shadow. Place really calm, quiet and perfect for what’s needed. No luxury. Check in and check out can be done right here at the entrance.

The coordinates are a little misleading. They take you to a neighborhood. You should actually drive past the neighborhood and the field is right before the swamp tours parking lot at the end of the road. There are porta potties on site. I stayed the night before New Year’s Eve and there were quite a few other people, but still plenty of room to park. There isn’t a lot of privacy and I did notice a lot of people being reckless and going to bed with still burning campfires.

One of the only places in the area that offers free camping. We were able to pull in at 2am and stay for the night. No amenities but felt very safe and it was well kept. There were two other tents set up but we still had plenty of room and privacy. It’s isolated enough down a back road but still close to the main road as well as neighbors to a little neighborhood. As a 23 y.o. female, didn’t feel nervous at all. No lighting of any kind so make sure to provide your own. I have AT&T and had full service.
