Description
State Park campground right on the Mississippi River in Trail of Tears State Park. Open year round. Water, electricity, and dump station. Even has a boat dock for putting out into the Mississippi, in case you want to see barges up close. Quiet, except for when the trains pass through. Then the whole ground rumbles and shakes, more or less, depending on the size of the train engines. It's a sight to see!
You must register to camp here. Honor system in the Off-season, though when I called the park office and left a message, they actually called me back.

Latest Check-Ins
Our second time in this campground. We are always here off-season. There was one other camper. Altho it is “Honor” system for payment, I did see a car come around checking on things. We paid via internet. Electric sites are $23 ($21 for 65+). Nice long paved sites. Fill hookup sites on opposite side of loop, nearer the train track and river. Dump and potable water available at end of the loop. Basic camping is on a separate road, which was closed when we passed by. Nice park!
Report Check-InDidn’t use facilities due to COVID. Only ones in campground and had beautiful sunrise over the River. Trains are powerful and noisy but really non problem. One of our favorite stops across the country.
