We are thinking of going to Vicksburg, Mississippi to do the Civil War thing in that area.  Does anyone know of a nice campground in or near this area?

Check out Norm and Linda Payne's website at http://www.seeya-downtheroad.com.  They just passed through that area and stayed at Rivertown Campground just south of Vicksburg stating that it was a nice campground with free WIFI.

We stayed at the Magnolia RV Park. It was very close to town.

We checked out the info on this thread - but wondered if anyone had more recent stays in the area?  We're headed to Vicksburg in about a week and look forward to touring the National Military Park with the boys.  Thanks!

We stayed at the Ameristar Casino RV Park and got coupons free breakfast buffets at the casino.

I stayed at the Rivertown Campground for one night a couple years ago. It was inexpensive (I believe $15 at the time). I paid cash so they gave me a discount without asking. It's basically a large parking lot with level sites - no trees. The sites were large and almost all are pull-through. The management was friendly and the CG, including the bathrooms, were clean. There were lots of friendly campers there. I must have given a dozen tours of my little Aliner. I would recommend it for one night if you are passing through the area, or visiting the battlefield park. My brother-in-law was working at the park, and he gave us a free tour.
