Piney Grove

The stay was good all the the way until the Friday night when camp host Bobby Owen ran me down with his golf cart and told me I couldn't go to the garbage dump, I was hauling off my garbage from my niece's and my camp ,we were only 2 site's from each other and were cooking at her site. He was rude, aggressive, and over stepping his authority, telling me he would throw me out of the park, I am 72 years old and handicapped, I have to have my golf cart to get around on as I cannot walk very much. I was not riding around the park, just doing what I needed to do. That camp host ruined my whole stay at this camp ground. I had no problem until he came on Friday night, all the rest of the employees were nice and respectful. He had no respect. He should not have a job dealing with elderly with his attitude. I was supposed to leave on Sunday but decided to leave on the next morning, Saturday. If he is there next year there is a great chance I won't be. It was the first time I had a problem at any camp of the camp grounds at Recreation.gov I hope I never have to experience it again. I don't have that many more years to enjoy my visitation with my relatives at these camp grounds and would like to have what few that are left in peace. I later learned that he being a camp host did not have the authority to run me down and threaten me to get thrown out anyway.

Great place

Site 18, Full Shade, Limited Starlink connectivity. Close to the lake with water view. Picnic table and fire ring on site 50Amp power and water site only. Services worked great. Plenty of room for our Motorhome, site was level. Saw some deer in the evenings and mornings. Would come back to stay again.

Great campground. Great staff. Great time.

This place is still my favorite location to camp!

Very clean & well maintained campground.

Sites mostly level and campground was clean. Yappy dog was annoying.

We had a great 2-night stay at Piney Grove. We have two small kids and they had a blast. They liked climbing through the trees and looking for sticks, and there was room to kick a ball on the beach even though it was too cold to swim. There was also a playground at the campsite. 20 minutes away was the John Whitten Lock and Dam Museum. It was the tiniest little museum, but it was free, the woman working there was so nice, and the kids got to see bones and turtle shells and canal models.
We came from the north (Hwy 30) and there was a little one-stop shop that had gas and snacks. It probably also had firewood, but we didn't need to buy any because there was lots of fallen deadwood around our campsite.

Very hospitable camp hosts! Beautiful lakefront! Campsites are spacious! Short drive to Tupelo!

Always love coming here, it is very quiet and peaceful
