Oak Grove Campground at Sardis Lake Revisited

Our first camping trip of 2017 was Easter weekend at Oak Grove campground at Sardis Lake in Mississippi.  We have stayed at this campground several times and I have written about it before here and here 

This is an Army COE first-come, first-serve only campground, for now anyway.  It looks like they are making some improvements like sewer hookups.  It makes me wonder if they will start taking reservations like the other COE campgrounds in the North MS area.

As schools were out for Good Friday, this was a busy camping weekend at Sardis Lake.  We arrived Thursday afternoon and by Friday, the campground was near capacity.

This time we stayed at site #21.  It was a nice spacious site but had little shade on the "living room" side in the afternoon.


In addition to the sewer improvements that are underway, a boat dock with benches was added for Oak Grove campers only.

The weather was near perfect and we really enjoyed getting away for the weekend.
