We sincerely enjoyed our stay at this COE park. The location is easy to access and close to Columbus, MS, which is a pleasant town with interesting historical sites and excellent dining and shopping options. Staff were friendly and helpful. Paved nature trail was a big plus, and it was fun to watch the boats and barges on the waterway.
