Twin Lakes

21 sites · RVs, Tents350 acres · Water Valley, MS

A quiet, country campground with over 12 miles of well-marked trails through old growth hardwood timber. We offer shady campsites and fishing in two private lakes stocked with bass and bluegill. Lakes are for campers only! Campers can pick blueberries when they are in season (June-July)--limit 2 pints per site per day. Wildlife is abundant. You will hear owls and coyotes at night. Often bald eagles can be spotted at both lakes. Other wildlife you may see: deer, wild turkey, raccoons, opossums, fox, bobcat, coyote, rabbits, armadillo, otter, and squirrels. Please do not approach the wild animals! There is a pretty creek for those who like to creek walk. Petrified wood can be picked up in the creek bed. We are only 30 minutes from the University of Mississippi campus for people coming for ballgame weekends. We are only about 20 minutes from Grenada and Enid Reservoirs. These have some of the finest crappie fishing in the United States. We are located 2 miles east of the Trans America Trail.

Learn more about this land: There are a lot of soft people in the world today, if you're one of those people this isn't the place for you. In the spring and summer the property can become quite overgrown. Some people have had difficulty accessing the inner part of the property that is pretty well cleared and secluded. I happen to like it that way. A quarter acre, just a stone's throw from Graceland. The property itself doesn't provide much more than a place to park, but you can literally walk to Graceland and Beale Street is only about a 15 minute drive or Uber ride. My friend has parked his 5 window skoolie with a 15 foot utility trailer without any issues. There's no access to the shipping container on the property, but you're welcome to set out a few chairs and bbq on the back side of the property as long as you're careful about fires. There are no fire rings, toilets, or running water; and certainly no power. You're welcome to park or tent camp but understand that this property is very primitive. If you're looking for luxury there are some amazing properties in the area listed right here on HipCamp. Please have a great stay and message with any questions.

Kyle State Park is also a family affair and by that we seriously mean invite the whole fam! The 96-person ballroom located at the visitors center is just enough room for a family-friendly game of musical chairs and the Mallard Point Golf Course will keep the all the uncles safely entertained.
