The concrete pad was pretty level and long enough for a 28' trailer and truck. The crushed gravel patio area had a nice CLEAN table, fire pit, and a pole with 2 hooks (to hang trash bags, lights, towels, etc). The bathroom, shower, and laundry were just a short walk and were very clean. The swim area has a nice beach and there is a roped off area that goes out to 6' deep. The water was warm and the bottom was sandy. The trails wander through the woods and have old asphalt paving which does not detract from the beautiful natural surroundings but feels good underfoot and isn't muddy. The caretakers are super nice people. They give you a large trash bag when you check in. USE IT! We saw a family take a grocery bag of trash to the dumpster and leave the rest of their trash scattered around their site when they left. You shouldn't pay more and stay at a commercial campground that packs you in a parking lot with hardly any trees. Check out our federal campgrounds. They're awesome.

Two white sand beaches with sort of clean water. Even though the beach area is in a 'No Wake' zone…read morethere is a pier, close enough to keep the waters churned up on days with heavy boat traffic. There are no lifeguards. There are clean showers, water fountains, restrooms, vending and soda machines. There is a play area for children to burn off energy. Water related activities draw a lot of visitors and at peak dates or holidays, getting into the water is difficult and even impossible. Old Bridge Beach and Piney Grove Beach both offer picnic shelters and volleyball courts along with the restroom facilities, and showers. Overnight camping is available at two campgrounds, the Piney Grove Campground run by the Corps of Engineers and the Whippoorwill Campground run by the Bay Spring Marina. Piney Grove Campground offers 139 Class A campsites with water and electrical service as well as restrooms with shower facilities, a fish cleaning station, playground and fishing piers and an amphitheater. Fishing on Bay Springs Lake is very popular and productive. There are fishing tournaments throughout the year, with the exception of winter. There was a state record 6 lb 4 oz chain pickerel at Bay Springs Lake in 1986, and Scott Wood snagged a 4.66-pound saugeye here in 2000. It isn't unusual to catch 20-30 fish a day. We always did the 'catch and release' after we had enough to feed us and our friend.

The campground offers over 60 sites, plus six cozy cabins. Three of these are rustic stone cabins with two rooms each, while the other three are smaller, single-room cabins. Cabin Six has been beautifully updated with new floors, furniture, appliances, and a modern bathroom. For larger groups, the park also has three group camp cabins--each with 20 bunk beds and spacious bathrooms that include showers, toilets, and sinks. The park is full of history and adventure. Visitors can explore the Pioneer Cabin and its nearby waterfall, or cross the famous swinging bridge--a suspension bridge that stretches 25 feet over Bear Creek. On the other side, you'll find two trails perfect for bouldering, rock climbing, or simply wandering through the forest. Wildlife is abundant, with deer, squirrels, raccoons, and plenty of other critters calling the park home. There are three scenic pavilions for picnics or gatherings. Pavilion One has restrooms nearby, Pavilion Two overlooks Haines Lake, and Pavilion Three also offers a beautiful view of the water. The dining hall is available for weddings, reunions, meetings, and other special events. Fishing enthusiasts will love the three fishing spots: Haines Lake, a quiet pond behind the Pioneer Cabin, and Bear Creek beneath the swinging bridge. For families, the park includes two playgrounds, a sports field, and plenty of picnic tables with cast-iron grills scattered throughout. Outdoor fun continues with three disc golf courses designed for different skill levels. And when it's time to clean up, the campground features two bathhouses that are always kept tidy by the hardworking park staff. Tishomingo State Park is more than just a destination--it's a place where history, nature, and community come together.

Review of Indian Mounds Campground--by a former longterm resident. Lived here from 2017-2024…read more I came to the Indian Mounds Campground in 2017 after acceptance into a graduate program at Mississippi State. At that time, the campground was run by a different landlord than currently resides and administers the site. Then, a year later, the current landlords, Shelia and her husband, moved into the campground and took over. The change was immediate, and I think it is worth mentioning these past events as a witness to how well they do their job. Firstly, they went to work fixing the dilapidated aesthetic of the park. Gone were the piles of leaves accumulating at each campsite. Repaired were the doors and plumbing and interiors of the onsite bathrooms and showers. Replaced were the shower fixtures, toilets, and sinks. In addition each bathroom and shower was given a space heater for the winter. They dug ditches for drainage along the backside of the campground, and they cleaned up the tent camping site. New gravel was brought in, and they often scraped and re-leveled the roadway. The mail system was rationalized and ordered sensibly. Perhaps most importantly and impressively, they completely revitalized the pond--which was an eyesore when I initially arrived. They got rid of the slime and the algae, built a little dock, and added a gazebo. They have kept the pond clean with a nice little fountain feature and a family of ducks. As an aside, the ducks are hilarious--they waddle around like kings and queens and generally have a grand time. All of these things vastly improved the quality of life at this campsite, and the improvements stand as proof of their care. But they are not all. Indeed, they are constantly present during the year, helping residents deal with freeze warnings and immediately communicating about issues that arise--such as tornado warnings, freeze warnings, losses of power, and losses of internet. Oh, did I mention that they provide you internet, water and power as inclusive in their monthly bill? And that the prices are just unbeatable? At least in my opinion. If you have a camper, and you are contemplating having to move to live and work near Starkville/Mississippi State, then this is the place to go. They do a good job making sure the park is peopled with stolid and reliable residents--mostly students. Things are quiet and safe--even during football weeks when the tailgaters come in. It was just a great place to live. I really can't recommend it enough. Some downsides. The internet is not super fast. Its enough to load webpages and use Youtube, but streaming can be choppy at times. 4G cell service, however, is quite good. I was able to combine their internet with a 4G hotspot on my own service, and I found this perfectly acceptable. Also, the entrance can at times develop a bump--there is a crack in the cement roadway that they have to occasionally refill with gravel. The ducks sometimes sleep in the road, and one will have to get out of the car to shoo them away. They are also very serious about the 5-mph speed limit. (I personally find this a bonus, because it keeps cars from kicking up gravel, but they are serious about it) In summation, Shelia and her husband have created homey environment to park your rig. They keep things in good order always. They are always on site, and communication about issues is prompt. Living at Indian Mounds Campground provides peace of mind in my opinion. I had school and work to worry about--it was a great blessing to never have to worry about my home.
