We rented the pavilion for my daughter’s gender reveal. The scenery was gorgeous and there were a lot of tables. The only things I would change is it needed some house keeping and a sign letting other people know that it was rented. We had strangers trying to come in and sit.

This was a beautiful campground near enough to Starkville to visit our son at Mississippi State but far enough away to have a quiet, tranquil space. Everyone there was very nice, including the park host. The only downside was that the bath house was closed for the season but that is expected since it was nearing freezing temperatures for late November. We would definitely check it out again.

Just spent 3 peaceful, relaxing days camped on the lake. Kayaked, hiked and biked around the lake everyday. Came midweek and had my choice of walk in sites, campground was very quiet and well maintained.

Lot # 17 was really GrEaT! We had a good view of the lake. It was peacefully and relaxing atmosphere. Thankful we camped here for OuR first trip. We did have to be careful with a low tree limb on OuR fifth wheel. We were NoT sure if we should have relocated or NoT. 😅

Was able to forage for firewood and start one up in one of the first-come-first served sites. Didn’t use the water or electrical, but it was there if we needed it. Nice picnic table there too. Adequate site for $22 after the processing fee.
