The surrounding terrain features flat to gently rolling plains characteristic of the Mississippi embayment, with dense woodlands and agricultural fields shaping the regional horizon just north of the urban core.
Amenities & Park Features
Because official property specifications for Navy Lakes are not publicly cataloged in full detail, guests should verify site configurations directly before arrival.

I have been staying here for going on 5 months now. Just a really nice place if you aren't looking to be in the middle of town and prefer a bit more quiet. There is a municipal airport in sight, a Navy base very close by and a rail line also not far so there can be a bit of noise from time to time. The couple that operates this place is wonderful! They offer a free laundry room, free bath house and no cost electricity hook-ups! 3 Very large "ponds" pretty much small lakes to fish in and more than enough space to stretch your legs. They also host events like weddings in the main office.
