Tunica Hills Campground - camp site

Tunica Hills Campground

Just came back from another lovely weekend of camping at Tunica Hills. Brenda and John do a…read morewonderful job of making everyone feel welcome. The campground is beautiful and each pad has a woodsy feel. Everything you need for a rustic camping experience is available, from a utility sink to wash dishes, to a shower shack, to being able to purchase firewood right onsite. There is a street type light right next to one of the porta potties which makes using it after dark so much easier. Our first trip was adults only, we liked it so much we came back and brought our kids. They had a blast. The campground is great for a large group get together, which is what we did. We all stayed at our own sites but hung out around one if the larger fire pit areas This campground is very close to clark creek hiking, which we've done twice. Can't wait to go back.

Lovely property! Gravel parking lot to park in, and Brenda will offer to help carry you/your stuff…read moredown to the campsites. There was also an unloading spot that you could drive your car down to and she also let us borrow a wagon to haul our stuff from the car for the campsite. The campsites are close by each other so it can get loud when it's really full, but I didn't mind that - I almost felt like we had neighbors lol but if you are wanting something more private, please keep that in mind. There was a flushable toilet with a running sink and a small mirror. There's also a pavilion with some picnic tables and lights at night if you wanna play cards there. There was a porter potty near the campsites so that was another option for the bathroom aside from the flushable toilet that was just a little bit of a walk closer to the parking lot. Multiple water/dishwashing stations with big sinks (huge plus!) Firewood was five dollars a bundle and we ran through four in one night! (Bundles are kinda small.) We did have an electric campsite, which was just one outlet (it did have an extension cord attached to it, so if I would've known this, I would've brought some lights to hang up.) The fire pit is pretty big and it comes with a cooking grate. There is also lots of trees to hang up hammocks on. The tent pad was pretty big but I did ask for a campsite that could fit 3 tents - I saw some that were a lot smaller so you will just have to let her know what you want. We had site #8 - I would stay there again. We paid $98 for an electrical campsite for two nights with four people and four bundles of firewood. Not too bad. We didn't have too much of a problem with bugs, but I would definitely bring some bug spray next time. We did have some fire ants next to the fire, but they didn't get in our food. We also saw a good bit of spiders but you're in the woods so what do you expect lol. You're also only 15-20 minutes away from some great hiking trails! We went to Clarke Creek in Mississippi. There's another closer to the campsite I believe. Anyways, i'd come back here!
