Then right after you pass the dog park. Great space - I'd take Mark's review from March 2022 with a grain of salt. Yes, the site numbers are difficult to see and yes there are few shade trees (only tall pines grow here). And I've definitely been in parks where sites were closer together. But during the winter the park it mostly empty and quiet. The soccer field was in use last night but otherwise not much activity. Sites are level, the hookups are good, there is a dump station, there a cement pad & picnic table at the back of each site. I'd definitely come again especially since having a hookup was nice since it got into the 30s last night.
The online reservation system didn't appear to take me to a payment page but I received a receipt for a balance due. I assumed a host might stop by or there would be a pay station. But neither appeared so I called the office in the morning (number provided in the listing) and was able to pay over the phone. They were very nice.

Not sure what campground the previous four reviewers were at but it's not the one I'm at. After reading their 5 star glowing reviews, I was very much looking forward to camping here...but then I couldn't even find it at first. Following the original provided GPS coordinates (it's since been corrected), it took me to the original posted address (also since been corrected)...but no campground was there! I had to call the number posted here only to be told that that address was where a back gate to the property was...and that is always kept locked. This was actually my second call to them, after being unable to find any RV park reservation information on their website. I eventually found it with their help but it was difficult to navigate. They also don't tell you on the site that you have to reserve more than 48 hours in advance. If it's less, the site will tell you that there are no sites available...even if there are. That happened to me. I had to call and ask if there were available sites. There were plenty.
So I punched in the correct address she gave me - 5400 Ballpark Rd. Drove thru the entire complex, past ball fields, the dog park, event center and their office...but could not find the RV park. So I called a third time. Turns out the park is hidden, no signage to indicate it even exists. For those looking for it...you turn at the street the dog park is on, follow the road back towards the event arena, then just before you get there take a right across what looks like a bridge, into the fenced in RV area.
First thing I notice...pretty much no one there. Like 6 RVs in the whole park. And no shade trees. Everyone's in the sun unless it's early or late in the day. Sites are not spacious. It's a big parking lot where you can almost spit far enough to hit the next RV. Many of the grills aren't back near the picnic tables and the concrete pad where they should be. They're up near the front of your vehicle where you've backed in. Restrooms are decent and private but no mirrors. I used my reflection in the paper towel dispenser.. Showers are separate from restrooms on the opposite side of the building but have no temperature control. The water isn't even lukewarm. It's a push button system where the water shuts off after 20-30 seconds. Also, poor pressure and weak stream. I left, wasn't even going to mess with that horrible system.
There is a pavilion...with no tables under it. Just a big empty space. There's also signs that something like sites 26-45 are reserved for Year 2 volunteers...whatever that means. Nothing else in the RV park itself.
Outside the park is all the sports fields and event arena but no action there when I'm here on a Wednesday night. Even the dog park is a bit of a hike from the campground. And both doggie poop bag boxes were empty. The site numbers are hard to read from the street. They're way up, attached to the electrical post and they are gold colored numbers on lighter colored wood, so hard to make out from a distance. I thought I was in site 5 until I got up close and saw I was in 15. My T-mobile wifi was constantly fluctuating between 1 and 5 bars, so say 3 bars. The picnic tables are delightful, look almost brand new. And before I left, I checked out the laundry room. Wasn't going to, previous reviewers stated there was only one washer, one dryer...for 50+ campsites. But I checked it out anyway and was glad I did. No charge/FREE. Couldn't believe it. I quickly did 2 large loads before I left...in their industrial size machines. They hold a LOT of clothes. They also look pretty new and are electronic. Next to the laundry room the utility closet was left open...inside was laundry detergent, softener sheets and a very clean sink. So I took advantage. Used them all. Washed dishes because as we all know, most campgrounds don't allow that.
$20 is a great price for electric/water/dump/free laundry...and cold showers but why anyone would want to stay here beyond one night is beyond me. There's just nothing here. It's cold, lifeless and boring, with no privacy between sites. Nevertheless, I'll be back because of the price, free laundry and large dog walk areas.

If you are in or passing through Mississippi, this is a great stop along your journey. Originally constructed to support the county fairgrounds/horse arena, this campground is open to travelers. It is clean, well maintained, and quiet and although there are no frills like a private park, the sites are large, comfortable, and there are ample amenities that you can enjoy for the price and nearby. Here's a quick review:
- There are 45 sites large and spacious sites. No problems with any rig. We were here folks with with 65' of rolling stock and they had no problems fitting even though the website may indicate otherwise.
- The restrooms are clean and well maintained. Seriously, they are fantastic and private.
- The showers are clean and adequate. It takes a moment or two to get the hot water through the pipes but the temperature, although not adjustable, is well set. They are of the push button type and some work better than others but the showers are private and keep you from filling your gray tank will here.
- The laundry is such a treat. Only one set but they are massive and new.
- There’s a dog park close by with an obstacle course.
- There are great restaurants very close to the campground,
-- Georgia’s Corner Market is fantastic
-- Ixtapa has great Mexican Food and HUGE margaritas!
-- Lou-Joe’s Donuts are amazing.
Directions. See the attached image. Find your way to 5400 Ballpark Rd in Vancleave. Then, go slightly north and make a left just after the ball fields and before the dog park... into the Conrad Mallette Multi-purpose Arena. Just as you enter the large parking area, look for the campground entrance on the right through the tree line.
Yep, it's a county campground and it's not flashy but seriously, this place is awesome and a great place for a rally or event.

This clean county park is located only 10 minutes (7 miles) off of I-10, it's fairly new and is very well maintained. We stayed here for two weeks while doing some volunteer work in Jackson county and its $20 per night cost is a bargain. We were able to use the single washer and dryer free while here but I'm not sure if that applies to all guests or only for us since we were working at another Jackson County recreation site.
