Our review on Campground Reviews:
Quiet park under the trees
This was a great stop for a couple of nights on our way through Mississippi. The road to get to it is a bit sketchy (it’s more pothole than road), but once you get in, it’s peaceful and the sites are nicely spaced out. There is a short walk to the day use area, which wasn’t very busy in December, so it felt like we had the place to ourselves. We camped at Leake County Water Park in a Motorhome.
