Rating: 4 2 3 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: No showers or toilets! You get a clean space with utilities. Cable TV available from local cable provider if staying for a month. Half of sites are level concrete, rest are grass or gravel. Working utilities. Staff very friendly and helpful, but office (in next door car lot) closes as five (after hours - pick a spot). Work performed on utilities at many sites, some access holes not filled in, so mounds of dirt at utility hook ups. Quiet at night, but residents in back MHP leave for work early. It's OK if you just need a base to explore the area. - LoneWolf
We pulled in here on our way home from Gulf Shores as it is about half way. No office at the campground, it is in a used car lot next door. Arrived at about 4:30 pm, and no one was at the office. Someone who lives in the MHP behind the campground said it was $20, and he would get the money to the owners the next day. After paying, with absoutly no paperwork, we then find out there are no bathrooms or showers! Not an issue with most RV's, but a tent camper is an issue. Guess what, no refunds! There was traffic through the park all night long, and we were the only ones that were not "permanent" residents. Moral of this story is if you have a self contained RV this might be an overnight stop but not with anything else. I'll drive 100 miles more next time to avoid this place. - bipeflier
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Pat Kelley RV Park »We travel a lot for business and found this park via the internet. The owners are extremely nice, pleasant and accommodating. Unfortunately this park has seen better days and needs updating. There is a run down MHP behind the campground that must be accessed through the campground so there is a lot of through traffic. They do not have bathrooms, showers, or laundry facilities. The garbage dumpster is a long distance away behind the MHP. The plus side is the sites are paved, with full hook-ups, and good water pressure even though the sites are narrow. Shopping is located within a couple miles and the casino in Lulu, MS is approximtely seven miles away. - kandid61

Rating: 8 7 8 5 5 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: This campground is a parking lot with RV hook ups connected with the Isle of Capri Casino. There is water, electric, sewer and free WIFI for $17. The space between the parking spots is the same width as the parking spot, maybe 12 feet. Nice space but there are no tables or fire rings, just an empty asphalt parking lot. This is not a vacation stay but for a night, it is secure, cheap and easy. The casino it's self, has seen better days. - Metro Johnson
This is a casino parking lot with E/W/S hook ups. It provides a safe location to overnight or stay if you are gambling. We used it for one night and will use it again if passing through. I did not see any shower / laundry facility. - A hitch and hop

All hookups, just parking a lot but they leave you plenty of room. Well lit and security present. I felt safe at all hours. Casino has a great Friday night fried catfish buffet. - SlicksMom -

Rating: 10 10 8 10 10 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: This is an excellent small park. The visitors center was exceptional with friendly and helpful staff. The small museum was educational. There was a variety of programs scheduled throughout the year. Because of our schedule we were unable to take advantage of any of these events. It is peaceful and very beautiful, but especially so this autumn when fall foliage was in full swing. We stayed at Beech Point Campground in site 10, a Class AAA site with water, 50 amp hook up and sewer. This was one of several pull through sites. This site was level concrete with a gravel sitting area. Just like most sites it had a metal fence around the back. The bathhouse was centrally located with four facilities. Each room had some heat, toilet and hot water for the shower. We had plenty of space for our 33ft toy hauler fifth wheel, two vehicles and our fishing boat. Almost all of the sites would have worked for us because whoever planned the layout made sure you were able to get your RV turned around where you had plenty of space to back in. The space between sites seemed just right, not too close. The rangers came through the park several times a day. We came to the park to get away and to do some fishing. There was a nice easy accessible concrete boat ramp which made it easy to launch and take out the boat. Our problem was our main boat motor was to large for the Bear Creek Lake, we had to use our trolling motor all week. We did understand the regulation. There were two courtesy docks provided that gave you lake access. We did catch several large catfish on jugs. One of which weigh over 20 pounds. There was not much to do in the area but we did come to fish and to get away. We plan to come back. - Debra D
Newer State Park on Eastern Border of Arkansas. It is ~ 1.5 hours from Memphis. There are not many sites in the CG, but they are all beautiful - and FHU! We were in space 4, which was on a peninsula in a lake. Plenty of space between sites. Cell and Dish were fine. There is a nice hiking trail in the CG and another up at the Visitor Center (which was a 20 minute bike ride through forest and meadows). We were also able to ride our bikes for a couple hours on the "Great River Road" which passes through the CG. Visitor Center is well done and all staff we encountered were very friendly and helpful. - Davishouse2
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Mississippi River State Park »14 full hook-up RV sites. Some back-in, some pull thru. Sites are level concrete with a gravel sitting area. Some sites are a little close, but in general they are spaced fairly well. Site 14 (back-in site) is the nicest site in the campground. It's more private than the others and has access to it's own peninsula complete with bench seat for viewing the lake or fishing. This site, like some of the others, has a metal fence around the back of the site. Someone did a nice job of spacing the utilities out so they don't interfere with slide outs, however, the sewer connection is just "stubbed up" with no threads or bayonet connection - (why?). You'll have to use the resident rock to hold your sewer hose in. Water pressure was OK at 60psi. The campground is flat and bicycle friendly. There are nice hiking/biking trails in the park, and a small swimming beach is adjacent to the campground. There are 3 tent sites in the RV area (if you like improved bathrooms), but a better pick for tent campers would be one of the 8 tent sites in the Lone Pine campground down the road (in the same park). Those are much more rustic and private. Although access to the campground is not controlled, it seems secure and park rangers were seen several times during the day. Signage in the park is good, all except the small one that tells you to check in at the Visitor's Center before setting up, and the Visitor's Center is about 4 miles before you get to the campground. Most campers just get a note from the ranger to come back to the Visitor's Center. There appears to be an active schedule of nature programs by the park. - Bama Camper

Rating: 4 8 7 7 7 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: This park continues to be a disappointment compared to what it was just a few years ago. The fact that there have only been about 10 RVs in this park the last few times we have stopped here indicates others feel the same way. From the closed park office forcing you to check in at the hotel to the poorly maintained bathrooms, laundry, and garbage containers, this park has only the reasonable cost going for it. The sites are mostly FHU, back ins that are small and not level. The sites are satellite friendly so I haven't tried the cable TV. We lost the internet connection several times during our stay. The bathrooms are inadequate for this park and were not clean. The small laundry cannot handle more than 2 customers. Typical of the area, there is no recycling. - Jerry S
Clean sites, small grassy area for each site. No picnic tables or fire rings - wjs225

Rating: 8 8 6 8 4 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: Nice long level pull-thrus with full hookups. Have not checked out laundry or restrooms as we have our own. For the price you can't beat it. Not much to do in the area but geocache, gamble, and eat. - The Gunny
Nice Park, but site 62 is positioned to not be able to follow the exit. Park is very new. - Jim and Lynda
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Sam's Town RV Park »Like many casinos that have eliminated having staff at the RV park, this park is not as nice as it was a few years ago. Besides having to check in with the hotel, the poor bathroom and laundry facilities are not cleaned often enough. The sites (mostly large, pull through, FHU sites on level cement pads) are the best aspect of the park. All sites appear to be satellite friendly, so we didn't try the cable TV. There is no Wi-Fi in the RV park and, typical of the area, there is no recycling. The hotel does have a nice outdoor pool we have used on previous stays here. - Jerry S

Rating: 1 5 7 5 8 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: The "camping" is all level, and the site we chose was back-in. All pull thru sites (approx.200) were full time permanent. I can live with folks working on cars, abandoned vehicles, RV's with fire damage/ windows out, city folk walking thru campsites throughout night (several openings to lot), trash everywhere, city pound which backs up to park w/overflow of dogs barking all hours. But in 30 yrs. of camping, this was first time ever I was awoken 2:00 a.m. by 3 cop cars to tell me neighbors reported my truck had been broken into. I love the music in town, but won't stay here again. Seriously unsafe. - mitig8er
Came to Clarksdale to check out the history of the Delta Blues music. This is the closest campground to town and is a fairgrounds. You self register by envelope, we never saw an actual person. Most of the full hook-up sites were occupied by long term campers, so we took an electric only site after filling our tanks per a nearby water spigot. Site was paved and moderately level. There were some gravel pull through sites but they were not very long, the paved sites are back-in. The paved road with sites is a dead end so be aware. We did not feel unsafe as there are "street lights". With rain, there were many puddles so we were glad we took a paved site. It was fairly quiet, some highway noise and heard a train in the am. Restaurants not too far away and Kroger and Walmart nearby. - mohocamper
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Coahoma County Expo Center RV Park »If coming to Clarksdale for Blues Music this is about the only choice in town. A few long term residents but was not a problem. Pros: inexpensive for full hookup, mostly asphalt pads, clean and mowed (festival weekend), staff regularly drove through - and were helpful, close to downtown. Cons: gravel pull throughs can be very muddy when rain, sites on inside the drive are only 30 amp and no sewer (but still pay $20), and delayed maintenance in general - 2-3 sites have broken spigots or electric problems but no notice until you try to hookup, also ants prevalent. Also no sign that drive is a dead end. - BandD
