This is a nice park, older & a little tight for big rugs but still no problem for our 40' motorhome with jeep tow! The staff is very nice and a large peaxedul field for walking! You can hear faint traffic from the highway but not enough to disrupt! Will stay again!!!

I called site 3 home from July 1-April 30, 2024, and I absolutely loved it! Shiela and her family are so very kind and wonderful!! She is like the mama bear of the campground and makes sure everyone (especially solo females and college students) are safe and taken care of. Shiela and her husband dedicate tons of work, time, and money into improving the campground and making it feel like home as well as keeping it in nice and clean condition. There are 2 bathrooms with a toilet and sink in each and 2 showers as well. None of them have air conditioning or heat but Shiela keeps fans on in the summer and electric heaters on in the winter in the 2 bathrooms. Once during my stay (in freezing temps) someone left one of the bathroom doors open all night and all of the water in the toilet bowl was frozen solid. Shiela was always quick to address any and all issues! Site 3 is really nice and close to the bathrooms as well as private since it backs up against the owner’s fence. There’s a good bit of noise pollution from hwy 82 though. They have a lot of rules to make sure your site looks orderly and not like someone lives there. The site has a nice ergonomically friendly water handle as well as all the electrical hook ups you might need. There is no sewage hookup at site 3, but I don’t have plumbing, so that was perfect for me. The pond area is very nice and relaxing, and there are some really cute duck residents that I enjoyed watching. I didn’t use the laundry room much, but Shiela and her husband were working on getting new machines installed and repairing some from residents washing large comforters and breaking the machines. A washer ate my quarters during that time, but she reimbursed me for them. I truly loved my time at IMCR and miss it and Shiela and her family! I highly recommend this campground!!

We had a fantastic stay at Indian Mound Campground in Starkville! It’s off the beaten path, but only 4 miles from MSU campus. I actually read through some of the reviews and I’m not sure why a handful of them were critical about the size of the spaces. Our pod and Jeep Wrangler fit just fine in campsite #15. Gravel spaces with lots of trees. It looks like every space has good shade. The facilities were clean and well-maintained. The campsites offered all the necessities you would expect like water, sewer, and 30, 40, 50 amps. We especially appreciated the peaceful atmosphere and the beautiful natural surroundings. We took advantage of the swings next to the little pond. They allow fishing for catch and release too. We didn’t encounter a lot of people, but the ones we did were very friendly. Besides our puppy, we didn’t see any other dogs in the park, even leashed. It was very quiet and peaceful. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, making our experience even better. It's clear they take pride in their campground. We'll definitely be returning if we’re return to Starkville!

Fun place to stay! We was only there one night. However we enjoyed it. Shelia is super nice and easy to work with. Loved the Halloween decor all over the camp ground. Definitely would stay again if we find ourselves in the area again.

Ms. Sheila and Mr. Chris are amazing people. They have helped my girlfriend get into her camper when she’s been locked out and have given us great advice on how to keep up with our camper. We were experiencing issues with our camper the other day and they lended us a tool to fix it and gave us advice on how to keep it from happening again. As a whole anyone looking for a weekend get away, somewhere to stay while on a job, or college students who are looking for an affordable place to stay in camper this is the place to be. Oh and the neighbors are friendly and the environment is great!!
