12mi from Vicksburg · 12 sites · Tents, RVs
Old growth, shaded and well maintained land on Big Black river. 4 RV sites 8 primitive sites. 110 and 30 amp power with water hook ups available. Generator's are fine as well. Best catfishing in the state. No fishing license is required. Just start fishing. Borders Big Black civil war battlefield. Pets are family and always welcome. Off leash is fantastic as long as your good with it. Lots of room to run. Jon boats with motors, Kayaks and ATV's always ok. Large stretches of sand bars when water permits. Not far from I-20. Great cell reception. Good restaurant down the road in Bovina. Loves truck stop just down the road. The existing road going in "Vickors Rd" can be bumpy, dusty, wet and may hold pools of water at times but the road itself is solid and will support the heaviest of vehicles.

If you’re looking to get down and dirty in the bayou, Delta National Forest is your place to explore the bottomland hardwood forest. The only one of its kind, this great green jewel is home to hundreds of migrating butterflies in July. While here, skip along the Great River Birding Trail to brush up on your chirping skills. Little Sunflower River is as sweet as it sounds and the hiking, fishing, and hunting you’ll find there will leave a permanent smile on your mug! Be sure to check out the primitive camping, there’s lots of backcountry to discover in this lush and wild forest. You’ll feel down home and fired up about the adventures at hand in the Delta.
