About this campground
Perched on the scenic shores of Sardis Lake, Beach Point Campground offers an authentic back-to-nature experience for tent camping enthusiasts. This peaceful retreat invites you to disconnect from the digital world and reconnect with the great outdoors, providing all the essentials for a comfortable stay including well-maintained flush toilets, convenient seasonal water stations, sturdy picnic tables for lakeside dining, and fire pits perfect for evening gatherings under the stars.
Beach Point Campground is a tent-only, primitive camping facility.
Weather and SeasonsSeptember visitors should come prepared for nature's smaller residents β the evening hours bring out local gnats and biting flies that are particularly active during this transitional season. As seasoned camper Mike A. notes, 'It is crazy buggy in the evening during September,' so pack your insect repellent and consider timing outdoor activities for earlier in the day when these tiny companions are less active.
Natural Features and ScenerySet atop a distinctive rock bank formation, Beach Point Campground commands breathtaking panoramic views of Sardis Lake's sparkling waters. The thoughtfully maintained grounds feature neatly trimmed grass areas that blend seamlessly with pockets of natural shade trees, creating an ideal balance between open sky camping and sheltered spots for those seeking refuge from the midday sun. The elevated position offers campers front-row seats to stunning sunrises and sunsets reflected across the lake's surface.
Geological RegionNestled at the northern terminus of Sardis Dam, this campground occupies a unique position where engineering marvel meets natural beauty. The location in the greater Sardis Lake region places visitors at the heart of one of Mississippi's premier recreational waterways, where the landscape tells the story of both human ingenuity and the enduring power of nature.
