This was a fantastic stay. The property is beautiful. Close to everything but feels private and is quiet in the middle of nature. Camper with amenities clean and convenient. And Clay was a great host!

Don’t miss out on the opportunity to stay at Wendy Oak’s! It’s so peaceful and beautiful to be parked by the water in your own little oasis.
The owner Melanie is a gem and is so helpful. She thinks about every detail of your stay and wants to make sure you are in the best site possible to accommodate all of your needs(if there is availability of course) We hope to visit again!

Everything went well! It was an easy in and easy out location. All the hook ups worked great. Hosts were friendly and helpful, but gave you privacy, as well. Property was landscaped beautifully with gorgeous flowers and surrounded by forest. Site was level. It was just an all-around great place to stop!

This is a perfect spot for anyone - especially bikers - traveling on the Natchez Trace to camp as it's less that 1 mile off the trace. Nice level concrete pad with electric and water with a treelined forest on one side and an open field on the other. Great wide-open view of the stars (no light pollution!) from the site. Anna & Will were gracious hosts, communicating everything we needed before our arrival, and they made a point to check in on us to make sure all was well after we'd settled in - much appreciated! Gotta love the address (111 Dummy Line Road) and it was a great experience overall so I highly recommend.

We had such a good time at Rock Hill! We were lucky enough to have the place to ourselves so it was very peaceful. Kids had a great time fishing. There is a bathroom on site which is always appreciated! I definitely recommend this small peaceful lakefront campsite!

I enjoyed the privacy. Still new to camping and felt comfortable in the elements solo. There are decent size catfish if you're into fishing. Appreciated being left alone while still being able to reach him in a timely manner if I needed anything. Gave tips and information to help.

We had a great stay. We pitched our tent close to the entrance for the use of electricity. There was lots of clutter around and the grass needed cutting, but we made the best of it. If it were a little cooler we would have definitely camped closer to the small swimming hole. We stayed 2 nights. Vincent was very easy to communicate with and responded quickly to messages. Great place for an overnight stay with a small RV or if you want to pitch a tent in the woods for a night.

We went tent camping and enjoyed it. There were a couple of good trails to explore. The swimming hole was smaller than expected and not much water running the creeks, but still enjoyed ourselves!

This was the most beautiful site of my trip down south. We loved the amenities and the site was just beautiful. It was more extensive than I realized and it was a great price! The bathroom camper was really nice and the outdoor shower was a fave! Just a dream.

It was a nice place. Easy to pull in. No one travels down the road. It's very peaceful. Easy to drive in and get settled. Grocery store not too far away.
Very nice watching the sunset over the pasture in front and there was a cute black cat that traveled along the side of the road... just making sure everyone was ok. The sound of the birds chirping this morning in the trees while we were drinking coffee was spectacular.

Spent 1 night on our way back home to Louisiana. Easy to find day/night (we arrived after dark), it’s ,secure, secluded, perfect for a tent or a self-contained RV. We were in a 32’ motor home and had no problem getting in/out of the property. There’s an awesome creek with couple of waterfalls. There’s a 3’ waterfall. that you could put a float or two in the 4’ pool below and just lose yourself in the beauty and peacefulness of nature there. I got in the creek and walked it a bit. I would’ve had my float in that pool if, we didn’t have to head back home. The stars are beautiful in the evening. My husband & I, are looking forward to planning a trip back in the near future to spend a whole weekend enjoying the property & creek. Perfect place to get away from everything and yet, near to stores and interstate

We really enjoyed camping and hiking on Vincent's land. The trails follow a creek that runs through the property and end at a waterfall, very scenic. Vincent was a great host and quickly responded to any questions we had.

Overview
About
If you’re looking for a unique experience in the outdoors close to Jackson, head on over to the picturesque Roosevelt State Park. The park provides a panoramic view of the Bienville National Forest, and you don’t want to miss the view in the fall when the forest is ignited by autumn colors. Once you’re here, you can enjoy the fresh waters of Shadow Lake through, boating, waterskiing, or eating up its tasty bass! Other park activities include Frisbee disc golf, a swimming pool with a water slide (ooh-wee), picnicking, softball, tennis, and nature trails. Might as well make it a night because the camping is golden. You can choose from primitive tent sites, nestling in in your RV, or renting a cabin where you can watch the sunset and enjoy a beer from the front porch!
When to go
The ideal time to visit Roosevelt State Park is during the spring and fall when the weather is mild and the natural beauty is at its peak. Summer months can be hot and crowded, while winter brings cooler temperatures that may affect some park activities.
Know before you go
- Check the park's website for any alerts on closures or safety advisories before your visit.
- Ensure you have a valid park pass or pay the entrance fee upon arrival.
- Wear appropriate footwear and clothing for hiking and other outdoor activities.
- Be mindful of park wildlife; observe from a distance and do not feed the animals.
- Facilities such as restrooms and picnic areas are available, but it's wise to bring essentials like water and snacks.
