National forest 43mi from Buckatunna · 79 sites
Lush rolling terrain and wide slow creeks are trademarks of the De Soto National Forest. So are kickin’ it in a canoe with a brew while you float down the river, we suggest exploring both! The swamplands here offer ample opportunity for kayaking, canoeing, and fishing on the Black Creek National Scenic River. The primitive camping along the way is hot in the summer, but prime for misty morning photography and inky orange sunsets...worth it! Off-road the Rattlesnake Bay Trail or hike the Tuxachanie trail with your crew for a day of laughs deep in the pines. You can pretty much camp forever here too, so pack up a week or two worth of gear, and really dig deep into what Desoto has to offer.

Trip was awesome. River was very high when we went. Still enjoyed and had a great time. Land is spotless no trash from previous guests. Ran into some people who live nearby that were extremely nice and even offered to help us out if we get stuck. The drive onto the sand is a little steep but with an4x4 you should be fine. If you can’t get right on the sand there is a place you can stay not far that almost any car can get to. 10/10 would recommend

Tony and Tracy are dream hosts! Their property is beautiful and well-kept. There was sufficient room for us to throw frisbees and do school with my son outside on nice days. The spot we were in was level gravel with easy access to a covered porch. The sewer connection was a bit far but Tony had an additional sewer hose to help. We left feeling like family. We have friends close by that we like to visit when we can so we will definitely be back and look forward to seeing what they do with their property. Tracy also has quite a few plants and offered us a small plant that she started from a cutting. Such ridiculously kind people.

We loved our 1 night stay at Hometown Host! The directions they provided were clear and easy to follow. Tony and Tracy are super friendly and welcoming. They even invited us to watch the Sugar Bowl with them.
Their property is beautifully kept and very quiet at night. Hooking up was a breeze. Their 3 little pups are adorable and sweet natured. We enjoyed a very easy and relaxing stay.
We highly recommend this Hipcamp! Book it -- you won't be disappointed!

Great backwoods camping/overnight spot woth accesd to beautiful sandbar on the Escatawpa River. We visited with B+ camper, 8ft wide, 10 ft tall, 24 ft long and this is probably the size limit to prevent overhead and side limbs from scratching your camper on the access path. Very quiet site, and host provided good directions to access the site in the dark.

We cannot say enough about how beautiful Vikrum’s land was. It was so peaceful and quiet and the river view and beaches were amazing. We had a little difficulty finding the initial turn off from the dirt road but the GPS directions lead us right to it. We just didn’t listen to them 🙄. The trail to the campsite was totally passable for a Tacoma and a grand Highlander. We loved it and so did our pups! We will totally be back. Thank you for a wonderful little break from reality!

We’ve camped at this spot several times now, and every visit just reinforces why we keep coming back. The property is absolutely beautiful — serene, quiet, and nestled right on the banks of the Escatawpa River. Whether you’re relaxing by the water or waking up to the sounds of nature, it’s the kind of place that instantly makes you feel grounded and at peace.
The primitive camping setup is exactly what we love — no frills, just raw nature. It’s the perfect environment to unplug, reconnect, and even brush up on some survival skills. My two boys especially enjoy the experience; they’re always excited to explore the woods, learn new outdoor skills, and just be outside without the distractions of screens.
If you’re looking for a peaceful escape where you can truly disconnect and appreciate the natural world, this spot is a must. We’re already looking forward to our next trip.
