nothing to say but pleasure. clean location. the staff made a lot of effort to understand me (I am French-speaking) and fully answered questions. the only problem that isn't the fault of the park is that some dog owners don't pick up the feces. I recommend this park.

Campsite was good. Spacious. The beach was very dirty and lots of broken glass and trash and unmowed grass

We have 2 doggies, so it was not very welcoming with the grass at that height. That made it look like the park was neglected.

There was no one working, so we had to drive 5 miles to get a phone signal to get a site. The bathrooms had not been cleaned in weeks. Someone had defecated in one of the men's showers and it was left.

The sites here are spacious and you can pull your boat up to the edge of the lake easily in most spots. The bathrooms were clean - showers were separate from the commodes. Most sites have shade and are asphalt.

Beautiful campsite, quiet, clean, military friendly. It’s close to Memphis for day trips. The lovely little town is close and offers everything you need.
My husband also recommends Martins BBQ joint. Is a little bit of a drive but worth it.
