A forested campground near fishing, hiking, and mountain biking. RV fit varies by site.
Water Valley Landing sits on the wooded banks of Enid Lake in northeast Mississippi's Hills Region, about 56 miles south of Memphis and reachable from I-55 by taking exit 227 onto State Route 32 east for roughly 17 miles and then a short drive on County Road 53 to the campground. The lake itself is the product of a dam on the Yocona River and opens onto nearly 16,000 acres of water framed by roughly 44,000 acres of mixed forest; a public fishing pier below the dam and boat ramps make the water easy to access from the campground.
Length limits vary by campsite.

“Very quiet. Level pad with full hookups. Beautiful view of sunset”
“We loved the quietness of the park, but the grass needed to be mowed. The weeds were overrunning the sites. We were there on the July 4th weekend. The grass was overgrown throughout the park. I don't understand why the grass and sites were not mowed.”
“Small quiet campground. Small town with few food options and one grocery store. Larger town of Oxford 38min away. Small playground and there is not a swimming area. ”

Months with fewer than 30 reservations of that kind are left blank. Sites where nearly every booking was made the day of arrival (pay on arrival) are left out. Closed seasons, windows not yet released for booking, and currently unavailable nights are separate from this history.
Based on Recreation.gov reservations, FY2015–2025 (2,805 reservations in the years scored). Counts reservations made, not nights actually camped: cancellations aren't in the data, and nights a site was closed count as not booked. FY2020–21 (COVID) are left out of the scores.
25 individual reservable campsites from Recreation.gov, checked Nov 7. Rates are the listed nightly rates.
