What a hidden gem! The campground was half full yet it was one of the most peaceful, beautiful campgrounds we have been to. It deserves more people getting out and enjoying it!

Choctaw is a favorite. Well kept, beautiful setting. Our host Danny is a joy to talk to. He greets you upon arrival and is there in time of need.

This is a beautiful camping area especially in the fall!! The campsites are very quiet and not once were we bothered by anyone.

Site was nice. Fire pit was not usable due to placement and condition on site #21. Campground was clean and organized.

A beautiful campground in the forest. Host was great. Sites are big and level with gravel patio for table. The walk around both lakes is beautiful. We didn't get to explore other trails because of rain. The campground is about 20 mins off the natchez trace parkway.

This campground is so pleasant, peaceful, and scenery is nice overlooking lake. Not a large campground but that’s why we like to visit it. Trails are nice, too. The campground host is awesome. We only wish the campground would stay open year round.
