About
North Abutment Campground is a well-developed Army Corps of Engineers facility located on the north shore of Grenada Lake in Mississippi. The campground features 88 RV sites, each with a concrete parking apron, 50-amp electric service, and water hookups. Sites 2-88 also include sewer connections. The campground offers both back-in and pull-through configurations to accommodate various RV setups. Within the campground lies a 17-acre lake stocked with bream, largemouth bass, and catfish, complete with a swimming beach for campers. Grenada Lake itself is a 35,820-acre reservoir with 148 miles of shoreline, offering excellent boating and fishing opportunities. Boat ramps are adjacent to the camping area. The campground operates year-round with reservations through Recreation.gov. A 2-night minimum applies on weekends and 3-night minimum on holiday weekends. The maximum stay is 14 consecutive days before a mandatory 14-day absence. Nearby attractions include the Haserway Wetland Demonstration Area with its 1.5-mile interpretive trail, and the city of Grenada is just five miles away.
