DeSoto State Park Campground is a very nice campground. There is easy access to this gated campground. Most sites have a good bit of shade. They have many campsites all with water, sewer, 20, 30, 50 Amp power. We had almost nonexistent service for our T mobil and Verizon. It has cable at all sights with a lot of channels all very clear digital. They have both pull through and back in sites. Most are pretty level with a lot of space between sites. Our site was number 55 which is a pull through. We have a 40 foot coach and it leveled nicely on thr asphalt pad. After setting up we had 30 feet behind our coach and 48 feet in front of it. We had 48 feet between pads. In the morning and evening there were deer everywhere. It gives you easy access to the DeSoto Falls and Little River Canyon. The

What a wonderful campground! I think this is one of my top favorite campgrounds!! The staff was friendly, the fellow campers were friendly! So many things to do!! The only thing negative I could say about this was just the roads getting in and out we were very scary and challenging pulling a camper.

Great campground full hookups. Big spots, good Verizon and T Mobile service. Some spots have a big step between the road and the spot itself, some are very steep to back into. But most of the spots are nice wide and spacious. Very quiet and well maintained.

Very nice, clean campground with full hookups and paved sites. Some of the pull-through sites were very unlevel from front to back so a lot of adjustments had to be made to try to get it level. So it might be a good idea to call and see if you can get one of the more level sites. Nice and shaded with lots of hiking and small waterfalls nearby. They do have laundry facilities but it’s coin-operated only. Nice little store with pleasant staff.
