The grass was tall and some areas of the ground was rough, but I understand it is alot of work to clean up after construction. I am very glad the camp ground is open. It’s one of our favorites

Beach closed no notification on website.
Dirt work and high grass made tent camping extremely difficult.

The site we reserved was pure mud. No grass what so ever. The sites that did have grass was overgrown and not cut. You couldn’t even get in the lake if you didn’t have life jackets. I usd to camp here all the time in my 20s. If they would’ve let us know you couldn’t get in the water we would have gone to Sardis. We drovefrom Florida to see family,

The Park was beautiful . I was sorry to hear they had been closed all this time but glad we got there as they were opening back up. It was absolutely beautiful. I saw my first blue Herron there. Will definitely come back if I’m in the area . Huge fan of the ACOE Parks ♥️

They’re still under construction at this campground. Dump trucks drove by every ten minutes, our water was not working for a couple of hours because they had to cut it off to work on something. Also, men working on a fence ON OUR CAMPSITE while we were there. Wait six months and then try this campground IMO.

Good campground,apparently just reopened after a tornado 2 years ago. Added sewer always a bonus. Issues still being worked out in public restrooms, overall quiet and a good camoground

This was our third visit to Arkabutla lake and first time at Hernando point. We love the facilities at both the South Abutment campground and Hernando point.
