Weekend Trip to Camp Strong Wood

Our stay was pretty much what we were looking for - secluded, quiet, and comfortable. The best part was the staff. They were beyond just friendly and professional, but were also very accommodating. They gave us a side-by-side tour of the property, let us borrow a phone charger, and even offered us fishing poles and bait to use in the two beautiful ponds. If you are looking for something secluded and quiet where you can just relax and enjoy nature, we strongly recommend.

Weekend Trip to Camp Strong Wood

Amazing experience from the start to the finish. The host were very quick to answer any questions before we even arrived. We had a group of 10, and the cabins slept all of us comfortably and the A/C worked amazing. Any help/questions we needed, were swiftly handled/answered by the host couple. They were amazing. Having close access to the kitchen was definitely a plus, since our group had so much food. Firewood was readily available. Our group’s favorite party was the lake. You can tell the owners of this camp have really put time into making this a fun and comfortable place to relax. We will definitely be back, and there is talk with our friend group to make this an annual trip. Also enjoyed how dog friendly everything was. Highly recommended!

Chris was terrific from the moment we arrived. The cabin was adequate for our needs and the outdoor kitchen on the porch was perfect. The land and the lake are beautiful. Fresh from the lake fish fried for dinner! A great getaway and we will be back.

I feel my words will prove inadequate to capture the essence of what Camp Strong Wood has to offer anyone who is fortunate enough to follow their sense of wonder into this beautiful land. If you are trying to have a human experience by going back to basics, without sacrificing civility and genuine hospitality - this is the place that needs to top your list. The staff (Chris and Zoey) are wonderful and caring people who made us Floridians feel welcome from the moment we arrived late at night when they came out to greet us with a smile! The atmosphere of community, communication with the land and its creatures and features, and tangible love of what the do was so refreshing - people who are so grateful and blessed to call their stewardship of this acreage their livelihood. Everything is sanitary and well-constructed with care. I loved my stay and will be back in the near future. This place is well worth your time and money, highly recommend.

Weekend Trip to Camp Strong Wood

On January 29th, 2023 we had the opportunity to stay at John’s camp in Wesson, MS. We had a great time there. It was a very relaxing and quiet weekend secluded in the middle of nowhere which was very nice and calm. At the camp there are 1-2 cabin/tiny houses to stay in. Currently as of the date of this review Chris (The caretaker) is in the process of building 2 more cabins to stay in that are fairly close to being finished. Chris was a very pleasant and hospitable host. He attended to our needs and showed us around the land and the lake which was very nice and beautiful. Chris lives there on the camp, but always respected our privacy. We also had a very pleasant time talking with Chris. This camp not only offers some cabins to stay in, but for those interested you can also pitch a tent and “rough it” outside. They also had a grill, microwave, and an oven (I assumed it was functional) to cook with while you are there. We did not utilize this though. Wesson,brookhaven, and hazlehurst are only about a 20-30 minute drive if you’d like to go eat in one of those towns. We also asked for some firewood when we booked the camp. Not only did Chris provide the firewood, but he also went ahead and prepared the whole campfire for us to use when ever we felt like sitting out under the stars around the campfire. All in all, we had a great time staying at this camp and we will definitely be returning to stay here once again. I would highly recommend this camp!! Thanks John and Chris!

So peaceful out in the cabins! Even though we went during hunting season so we couldn’t explore much he made sure we had a wonderful experience. The campfire set up is absolutely beautiful. The cabin is so homey with a stunning shower. Can’t wait to come back.

Stayed again on our way back to TX from FL and it did not disappoint! It’s a great place to play like kids and not care about much other than the weather. Great bonding time and adventures with my dogs, which I’m grateful to Chris for making possible. And the dinners he made—epic. So delicious after swimming and kayaking and wandering in the woods! Easy drive back to DFW, we’re already thinking about returning!

Not sure who had more fun, me or my dogs. Chris prepared a mouthwatering steak dinner for all of us, pups included, which, after a long days’ drive, was nothing short of incredible and will be remembered fondly as a great start to our adventures! The cabin is cozy and efficiently furnished—everything I needed was easily found, clean, and worked, from the hot water to the chilly as you like it AC. The next morning, breakfast was damn near as good as dinner the night before, and we spent the day at the lake—kayaks, canoes, floating dock, the perfect summer day. Already booked a return trip! Thanks John and Chris.

Peaceful, safe, and comfortable. The lake is an easy 10-15 minute or so hike back from the cabin. Groundskeeper was friendly and helpful but also respected privacy. It's a lovely place if you're looking for a quiet retreat for reading, writing, meditating, light hiking. Not a ton to do if you're looking to stay super active/busy, beyond canoing on the lake or walking the trails (maybe there is more in the surrounding area, which I didnt get a chance to explore). The main cabin was comfortable--great mattress, strong water pressure. Lots of spider webs/nests which didn't bother me (and helped catch a few flying critters who snuck in), but might not be great for anyone with a phobia :-) The porch was lovely and well-shaded. Stayed pretty cool even in the afternoons, without many bugs. Great stargazing from the lake, but hard from the cabin as there are lots of lights around the cabin and parking areas that turn on at night. Overall, a lovely trip, with everything as advertised!

Camp Strongwood is where it's at. Tons of pine forests to hike and experience wonderful solitude in.... Swimming in the lake during the day and laying out at night on the floating dock looking at the Milky Way and Stars.... Cabins with comfy beds, luxurious showers, and Air conditioning! Chris the Groundskeeper is an beautiful human being. Truly the chocolate frosting on the whole experience. He was right there when we needed him and knew when to give us our space. Please do yourself a favor and pre-book several meals. Amazing. Isolated treasures like this are what make Hipcamp awesome.

The digs were simplistic and unpretentious. I ended up doing a whole lotta nothin’, mostly by design. But I still enjoyed my time. Chris, the groundskeeper, was friendly and helpful. Walking through the woods on property was very pleasant. There were lots of animals around, which I enjoyed. The cabin itself was as advertised and had all I needed.

This site was absolutely stunning. Chris, the grounds keeper, was a gentleman and a scholar in regards to the the surrounding wildlife. All of our needs were promptly taken care of. The lake was a highlight. Morning and evening dips in the lake made for great memories. Chris’s dinners were 10 out of 10. We had the best 4th of July weekend we could of asked for. - Daniel & Mckenzie (New Orleans)

We had a great stay at John’s camp. The cabin was small just just perfect for what we needed., and air conditioning! The lake was full of fish and the groundskeeper was great at showing us around. My dog loved the water and we are exciting to come back in cooler weather and tent camp.

After arriving at the cabin area , Chris ( the grounds keeper) greeted us with hospitality. Cabin was great and just as pictured. Only thing was the beautiful stocked pond is on site not at edge of cabin ( grounds keeper will bring you to lake )as well as a kitchen ( not in cabin ) but can be used if needed. if your looking for a off the beaten path, quiet ( more of an adult get away) then this is the place !! John ( host) came out and checked on us! They are in the process of building another cabin and a common area. With a great fire pit in the middle ! The lake was amazing and my favorite part. They even rent tents to stay at lake front ! Go check them out !
