2-3 bars on Verizon. Too many trees for Dish Outdoors. But the park is sparkling clean and Beautiful. The lake is crystal clear. The weather was absolutely perfect the entire weekend. The lake was down about 12 feet but we still had a slight view of the water from site #55. So enjoyed this trip! Nice neighbors on both sides of us. Most of the sites are very well spaced except for #54, 55, and 56.... 2-3 bars on Verizon. Too many trees for Dish Outdoors. But the park is sparkling clean and Beautiful. The lake is crystal clear.

Currently camping at Wallace Creek Campground in Enid Mississippi, Site #30, site is level. Very quiet this time of year. (So cold, lol) Only one area open as of December 1st but full hookups are available. Actually the whole campground is full hookups!

Beautiful campground. Spacious, full service sites, very tall trees everywhere, awesome view of the lake. Campground host was hiding somewhere when we had some questions. The place could use some trash cans since the dumpster at the entrance was the only place to throw trash away. Overall, well worth the visit for a long relaxing stay midweek. See pic of fallen tree after a fierce thunderstorm. Th... Beautiful campground. Spacious, full service sites, very tall trees everywhere, awesome view of the lake.

We had a brief set up/stay here with our tent as we are on the road to another place. The sites are all cement and have decent space in between you and your neighbors. Plenty of bathrooms (not climate controlled, blazing hot! But clean) Beautiful views of the lake but they are all pretty far from the water. Our site was right next to the playground which was fantastic as we had small kids with us.... We had a brief set up/stay here with our tent as we are on the road to another place.

Biggest issue was the bugs. There were a lot of ants and they did get into the tent and were crawling on us in the night. My son also got pretty bit up by something (8 bites on one arm). Also, just the location of the campground in general. We had to travel down the road a bit to get ice as the gas station on site closes early. The 2 places we stopped to look for ice didn’t feel safe at all.
