Whitten Park

What a beautiful campground! We found Jamie Whitten Park/Fulton Recreation Campground in Fulton, Mississippi, by accident. We were traveling home to Arkansas from Tampa (post Milton), and just looking for a place to stop for the night. I found this place on RV Life. This is a COE (Core of Engineers) campground. Cost is very reasonable ($30. / night) if you are a senior and have a senior Federal park pass, it's only $15./night. We are staying for 3 nights! This park is located on the Tennessee-Tombigbee Waterway, which is a lock system joining the 2 rivers. So the park is right on the water. Our space is about 50 yards from the waters edge. There are several docks and boat launches in the area, and a Marina is about half a mile down the road. There is a public boat launch and several picnic pavilions before the entrance to the park. Really, you need to check this place out! There are spaces for RVs, trailers, and tent camping. Most (maybe all?) spaces have electric and water hookups. There is a dump station on the way in. All spaces have concrete level pads. There are large green spaces for kids to play and extra parking for extra cars. There are nice restrooms and bath houses on each of the three loops, with abt 20 parking/camping spaces per loop. Also, there are bike trails as well as walking paths to the docks and waters edge.We stayed in space 9 on the first loop. It's a nice large pull thru site. We're looking forward to going back.

Always a great stay here. Nice park great access to the waterway for fishing

I absolutely loved it there. Anita and Jackie, we're the best host and anyone in the front booth were awesome. I was on the lake and my whole experience here was great. I have to return next year

Love this park and the staff! The bathrooms need to be fixed up a little bit. The electricity didn't work in loop 3 and the shower curtains were a little shabby, but other than that, it was awesome!

I was in site 59. To access this site you have to back down a lane then back into your campsite. This one is right next to and at right angles to 60, which is the end of the lane. Unfortunately campers in 60 viewed the lane as their private drive and not only was my camper requently blocked by their parked vehicles but my pickup truck was as well, limiting my ability to get in and out of my site. As to the site itself: full shade, slight view of the water through the trees but looking across site 60. Long walk to bathrooms, which were clean but no trash receptacles as you are required to pack and carry all trash yourself. I was there over Halloween weekend. Many of the campers were decorated and there was an organized party of sorts including kids trick or treating around the loops, which was a lot of fun. Overall, a pleasant stay.

We have stayed here twice, both were just overnight trips, a stop on a longer journey. This looks like a park that we would like to spend more time at. Our last sight was so level we didn't need to unhitch our trailer from our vehicle, nor did we need anything to help level us. Driving around the loop on our way out the next morning gave me a quick view of a park that looks like it is well cared for.
I gave this CG a 4-star rating because it only had electricity and water, but not sewer. I know that many COE CG do not have sewer, but some do, so those who do not cannot earn 5 stars.
