Battlefield Campground & Motel Rooms

"When I spoke to the manager over the phone, I was told the rate was $25/night. When I arrived, I was told to choose a campsite, set up, then come to the office to pay and again was told the rate was $25/night. When I paid for 3 nights, the charge was $40/night and multiple signs said “no refunds.” This campground is a bit like a rustic state park with long needle pines, a steep driveway, and as other reviews have said, a somewhat deep drainage-way along side the road next to the campsites. Although getting level wasn’t an issue and power, water and sewer are adequate, it gripes me to not be given the correct price including taxes and fees up front. Even with this campground being within a mile of the National Military Park (battlefield), I will not choose it again because of the deceptive practices of the manager."

"This campground has so much potential. We arrived in January and spent two nights. Pros: Less than a mile from Vicksburg National Park, very affordable, has full hookup, has drive thru sites, other campers kept to themselves and it was quite Cons: Stray cats (counted 7 from entrance to site), roadways we're not kept clear of tree debris in the campground, concrete driveway strips on sites have drop off to ground, bathroom was locked I think with a bit more effort this could be a really nice and welcoming campground. They need to do weekly maintenance and add soil up to the edges of the pull through site concrete strips. I would stay there again IF I we're going the Vicksburg National park since it so close."

"Not at all what was represented. Talked to owner days before arrival and was quoted 25 per night. Upon arrival he charged 40 per night. No assigned site, no map, no assistance. Told to just go up the hill and pick a site. The only site we could get into was level but unsightly. Could not use surge protector on pedestal. Water service was barely adequate. Full time rvs are literally falling apart. WIFI was NOT available beyond the motel area. Previous reviews indicated owner updates and clean bathrooms. Not my experience. Dirty sink and showers. Loose tiles in shower. No where to hang or set towel, clothes or bag. No lights in shower area. A thin coat of red paint is just lipstick on a pig in my opinion. Close to National Battlefield is the only positive I can add."

"We were leary about staying here. Old reviews were very unfavorable. Several newer, more positive write-ups caused us to check it out. We were glad, came for 3 nights and stayed 9. The campground is under new ownership as of Sept 2019. It is an older facility but the new owner, Mitul, is making improvements. The pull through sites are on a hill but they are terraced and level with concrete tracks to park your wheels on. I had no problem aligning our motorhome on them. My wife and I found the park peaceful. She commented how safe she felt walking the dogs in the evening. There was plenty of grass for them. There is some noise from the highway. You have expect that when your close to the interstate. I did hear a dog bark in the adjacent neighborhood. Not a nuisance. The campground itself was quiet. It's very close to the National Park and anything else you might need. One review I read mentioned grass needing mowed. We were here in February and one day a lawn crew showed up, mowed and mulched leaves and pine needles. As I said he is trying. There is some old inaccurate literature on the campground circulating in print and online. There is no Wifi. The laundry facility is small. We used the one by the Walmart. The pull through sites are 50A. The nightly rate was more than reasonable. We had a nice stay at the campground and Vicksburg was a friendly town to visit."

"I found it to be quiet. The residents generally were quiet and polite. Many of them live there full-time. It’s very close to the battlefield. You do hear the highway noise. The bathroom was clean with 2 shower. I was the only one using it because all the other people had their own hooked up. The owners were very pleasant. There’s a laundry room if you want to do a load of laundry. It was $35 a night which is less than most of the other places close by. There is a small motel also on the property. The owner is trying to fix the property up. There is electric water and sewer hook up I think for some of the people who need that."
