About

Wallace Creek is a quiet, family-oriented campground situated along the banks of Enid Lake in the forests of northern Mississippi. Managed by the US Army Corps of Engineers, it is the largest campground at Enid Lake with 101 campsites featuring full hookups. Modern amenities include flush toilets, showers, and a dump station. Each site has a picnic table and fire pit. A playground and interpretive trail provide additional recreation. Enid Lake is part of a dam project on the Yocona River that creates almost 16,000 acres of water, with an additional 44,000 acres of surrounding forest. The lake has been recognized as one of America's Top 10 Fishing Spots, with white crappie, bass, and catfish in abundance. It holds the world record for white crappie at 5 pounds, 3 ounces. Hiking trails wind along the lakeshore, offering hiking, biking, and horseback riding opportunities. Boat ramps are provided at the campground.
