There were no signs directing us to our site so we had drive through the entire campground to find site 68. There was no one to greet us or give us a map of the campground either. We walked all around the campground to try to find the dumpsters as well. When we arrived a ranger vehicle was parked in one of the spots. He waved but didn't offer any help finding our site. It looked as though many of the sites were long term and/or permanent sites, definitely longer than the 2 week maximum. We were very disappointed especially since the the campground itself is just lovely with nice big sites. Please improve your signage and communication. Also, when we dumped our gray tank, smelly water started to pour out of the cap of the septic next to our site. The water ran to the back of the site where there was a large, puddle/swamp from the overflow.

Both bath houses were closed and torn down for renovation during our last visit. Only the small handicapped bathhouse was open with only 2 combination toilet/shower stalls available for the entire campground. There was no air conditioning and barely any air ventilation in the building making for an extremely hot and uncomfortable shower experience. Also, dont expect any cell service by any provider at this campground. Otherwise the grounds are ok except for the low lake levels due to the (neverending) ongoing dam repairs.

The last day we was there we stayed on Site 76. It had a bad breaker so we couldn't even stay in the camper that night. When we told someone about it they didn't act like they cared so we spent $30 for nothing and was never offered a different spot. Other than that we enjoyed it.

HP is a quiet and well maintained campground. The staff are friendly. We'll stay here again.
There are great restaurants in nearby Hernando. We ate at the Windy City Grill and the Underground Cafe, both are awesome! No need to fight the Memphis crowds.
