We love staying at Whitten camp site. It's always clean and the staff are very friendly and helpful.The only thing I wish, it had internet access. It's close to shopping and restaurant.

Beautiful setting and very quiet even though most sites were occupied. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We stayed in site 11 and the views were amazing as it backs up to the waterway. Nice trails for some short walks along the waterway. Our 40 ft Super C fit fine. The only drawback was the picnic table and fire ring for the site next to us was very close.

This is a great park for a week stay or an overnight stop. There is shopping and food close by. Walking paths and fishing docks. A swimming spot in the summer months. I stay here every trip across the south...love the place.

What a beautiful campground in an EXCELLENT location! Clean park with beautiful scenery and sunsets. The restroom and shower facilities were clean and well maintained, dumpsters were easily accessible but NOT right next to any campsites. Our site was clean and free of trash, fire ring and picnic table were included. Hiking and Walking trails are all over, and the campground is in driving distance of Tupelo for an afternoon trip, the birthplace of THE KING, Elvis Presley. (Wal-Mart and anything else you may need is a very short trip into town)

Very nice park with clean bathhouses and friendly hosts! The Jamie L WHITTEN Historic Center was also nice with very friendly staff.
@SylviaFD3C95B8 · Camped on Dec 3, 2024 at Campsite #7
I have been a nomad for 5 years and always stop at Whitten Park. This is by far my favorite park. Wonderful sites, walking trails that are safe, three piers, and a restaurant walking distance away. Clean, wonderful restrooms, hot showers, everything you need to enjoy your stay. If you have a senior pass, it is good at this COE campground.
@NathanG6451658 · Camped on Nov 22, 2024 at Campsite #13
Great wooded sites. Hiking trail along the water in the campground. Played frisbee golf. You can access a paved bike/walking trail that goes along the Tombigbee to the nearest lock (6 miles round trip). Fire pits at each site. This was our second trip and we plan to continue camping there when we can.
@DavidS3927304 · Camped on Nov 17, 2024 at Campsite #9
Nice facility, peaceful setting along the waterway, thanks.

Paved sites and large spaces.
@NoelaC8BAC1B69 · Camped on Nov 7, 2024 at Campsite #42
We have stayed here twice, both were just overnight trips, a stop on a longer journey. This looks like a park that we would like to spend more time at. Our last sight was so level we didn't need to unhitch our trailer from our vehicle, nor did we need anything to help level us. Driving around the loop on our way out the next morning gave me a quick view of a park that looks like it is well cared for.I gave this CG a 4-star rating because it only had electricity and water, but not sewer. I know that many COE CG do not have sewer, but some do, so those who do not cannot earn 5 stars.
@JaniceR3870008 · Camped on Oct 29, 2024 at Campsite #60
I absolutely loved it there. Anita and Jackie, we're the best host and anyone in the front booth were awesome. I was on the lake and my whole experience here was great. I have to return next year
@WILLIAMM503355 · Camped on Oct 29, 2024 at Campsite #28
What a delightful spot to escape! We tucked in after a couple of days travel and stayed two nights near the end of October. The campground is clean and well maintained. The staff were great, very friendly and helpful. We will keep Whitten Park at the top of our list for stays when passing through this part of the country.
@Katherine2FA3B · Camped on Oct 23, 2024 at Campsite #59
I was in site 59. To access this site you have to back down a lane then back into your campsite. This one is right next to and at right angles to 60, which is the end of the lane. Unfortunately campers in 60 viewed the lane as their private drive and not only was my camper requently blocked by their parked vehicles but my pickup truck was as well, limiting my ability to get in and out of my site. As to the site itself: full shade, slight view of the water through the trees but looking across site 60. Long walk to bathrooms, which were clean but no trash receptacles as you are required to pack and carry all trash yourself. I was there over Halloween weekend. Many of the campers were decorated and there was an organized party of sorts including kids trick or treating around the loops, which was a lot of fun. Overall, a pleasant stay.

Always a great stay here. Nice park great access to the waterway for fishing

What a beautiful campground! We found Jamie Whitten Park/Fulton Recreation Campground in Fulton, Mississippi, by accident. We were traveling home to Arkansas from Tampa (post Milton), and just looking for a place to stop for the night. I found this place on RV Life. This is a COE (Core of Engineers) campground. Cost is very reasonable ($30. / night) if you are a senior and have a senior Federal park pass, it's only $15./night. We are staying for 3 nights! This park is located on the Tennessee-Tombigbee Waterway, which is a lock system joining the 2 rivers. So the park is right on the water. Our space is about 50 yards from the waters edge. There are several docks and boat launches in the area, and a Marina is about half a mile down the road. There is a public boat launch and several picnic pavilions before the entrance to the park. Really, you need to check this place out! There are spaces for RVs, trailers, and tent camping. Most (maybe all?) spaces have electric and water hookups. There is a dump station on the way in. All spaces have concrete level pads. There are large green spaces for kids to play and extra parking for extra cars. There are nice restrooms and bath houses on each of the three loops, with abt 20 parking/camping spaces per loop. Also, there are bike trails as well as walking paths to the docks and waters edge.We stayed in space 9 on the first loop. It's a nice large pull thru site. We're looking forward to going back.

Had Fun Walking With My Wife And Dog. And Just Looking At The Water. Lot 60 This Time Has a Good Over Look . WE Will Be Back In The Spring .
@MichaelA251288 · Camped on Oct 7, 2024 at Campsite #18
The gate associates were very friendly and courteous even though I arrive a little early for the rather late 4 pm check-in. The park was pretty well maintained. The paved area for parking is rather narrow but we managed even with a pretty high drop off around the site ( # 18). Oher than that we enjoyed our stay.
@DavidC2858387 · Camped on Oct 6, 2024 at Campsite #51
Park's host was rude.Park has camping spots too closely located to each other.We were told we would have to change spots because we were not in the right one, so we left during the night.I will never go back to this campground.

Thanks to all our Supporting Members

@BranJen - Santa Clara, CA

I wanted to thank you for this site and especially for the notifications feature. Thanks to your site and my subscription I was able to book a campsite I've been annoyingly trying to book for 5 years unsuccessfully. So thank you.

@Wondering - Oregon

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
