What others are saying about this campground
Big Hill Pond State Park is a great camping spot for those looking for a peaceful outdoor escape. It features a variety of trails, a boardwalk, an observation deck, and a fire tower for those looking for an adventure. The campsites have been recently renovated with fresh gravel and wooden railing, and have a nice big table and fire pit. The park also offers kayak and fishing boat rentals, and is a dark sky area, perfect for stargazing. The bathhouse is clean and easy to access from all campsites, and there is a small store with ice and snacks. Unfortunately, the visitors center has been closed on our visits. The campsites are perfect for small to medium sized campers, but not for RVs over 26 feet. This is a great spot for camping, backcountry hiking, and hammocking, and you wont be disappointed!

From The Campground

Big Hill Pond State Park is located in the southwestern part of McNairy County and encompasses 4,138 acres of timberland and hardwood bottomland. Cypress Creek and Tuscumbia River border the property. The flood plain, adjacent to the river and creek contains small oxbows and swampy areas which are desirable habitat for waterfowl, wildlife and fish. Big Hill Pond highlights include the 70-foot observation tower that offers panoramic views of Travis McNatt Lake and the boardwalk that wends through Dismal Swamp. Guests visiting Big Hill Pond State Park enjoy camping, hiking, birding, mountain biking, fishing, and paddling on Big Hill Pond Lake in the summer. The park is home to thirty miles of overnight and day-use trails with four backpack trail shelters.
