About
McCurdy Point Recreation Area is a day use facility operated by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers on the north end of Enid Dam at Enid Lake in Yalobusha County, Mississippi.

The facility features 6 individual picnic sites equipped with grills and tables, 3 single covered picnic sites, and a large group picnic shelter available for reservation.
