Site 8 is an easy back in with good over the air tv reception and unobstructed view of southern sky and lake There is a big slope on the door side of the camper down to the picnic table so be carefull

What a beautiful campground! I was on Site 29. I was able to watch sunrise from my door, and sunset from the back of the camper, both views were of the water! Bonus, only advertised electric, but has water AND sewer! A great place to stay! Only stayed two nights. Was going to go visit Memphis, but stayed at the campground and enjoyed the surroundings.

Blown away by having full hookups at a COE. No real trails due to storm damage, but I was able to get in a lot of hiking throughout the park, and even on the beach. Many of the sites overlook the reservoir with a few interior sites for those unconcerned. We had site 1, which may be the only site I wouldn’t recommend due to its close proximity to site 2. Many other great sites though.

views were great, sunsets were stunning! I will warn that the wind can get intense if you are on the lake rim, we were in site #3. if you like to walk, this is a great park for it. Memphis isn't too far away so it makes it easy to take a day trip. Definitely would recommend Central BBQ in Memphis and Wiseacre Brewing just down the street form there.

Our weather was less than desirable but it went well. Lake was very low,more than expected, but still beautiful. Your pretty much on your own there with a ranger passing by maybe once a day. I would like to return during the summer to check it out.

We very much enjoyed our time at Hernando Point. The view was absolutely stunning and the restrooms/showers were clean.

We were in Lot 8 for 9 days. It was a perfect back in for beginners. Straight shot, but you have to stay on the pad because of hills. It was the perfect view from the back of the trailer and sitting in chairs. We were in lot 14 for 5 days. It was a simple back in not quite as easy as 8. It was an handicap site so the table & grill was easy to access.

We really enjoyed our trip at Hernando Point so much we switched sites to extend our stay. Would be a 5-star review, only drawbacks were lake was very low which revealed a lot of trash on shoreline. Sunset views were beautiful regardless though. We're also an active family and walk/bike area is limited to campground area.
