Bigfoot Country
687 sites · RVs, Tents40 acres · Lauderdale, MS
Enjoy 5 acres of clear pasture land and 20 acres of forestry in a secluded area that's far enough away from civilization but close enough to the highway 45. As our great-great-grandfather called it, Welcome to Bigfoot Country!
Bigfoot Country has a small pond on site and over a mile of trails all over the 20 acres that is perfect for horseback riding, hiking, and ATV riding. Explore the forest on foot, horseback, or with a side by side to find the hidden spring in the woods.
Deer frequent Bigfoot Country as we feed them throughout the year. A small patch of trees serves as our "bird sancturay" where you can see and hear a wide variety of birds chirping and flying through.
We keep the pasture cut beautifully to fend off snakes and other unwanted pests. Pets are more than welcome, but please supervise them. We would hate for your furbabies to get hurt.

Overview
About
As one of four parks facing possible closure, the fate of Chickasaw State Park is currently hanging in the balance. Nothing is set in stone yet, so be sure to check on the park's website for the most up to date information. This area's virtue lies in its ample wildlife watching and peaceful wading pool. Grab your binoculars and keep an eye out for Bobwhite quails and wild turkeys. Whether you're looking to roast up some BBQ in the pit, or just chill under the shade of some trees, Chickasaw State Park knows how to do relaxation right. With Alabama's Rural Heritage Center nearby as well as the Black Belt Nature & Heritage Trail, we have a feeling a couple pit stops will be in order.
