Introduction
Featuring amazing fishing, hunting and RV camping facilities, George P Cossar State Park is a must visit destination if you are traveling to Mississippi. Located in Yalobusha County near Oakland, George P Cossar State Park is on the banks of the 28,000 acre Enid Lake which makes it an awesome spot for RV travelers who love the water. The park takes its name from George Payne Cossar, Sr. who was a prominent Mississippi attorney during the 20th century. A little fact about the park is that there was a state park at this location before it was named George P Cossar State Par. In March 1979, Gov. Cliff Finch signed a bill that renamed Yocona Ridge State Park in Oakland to George P. Cossar State Park.
The park mostly attracts RV campers who love the great outdoors. It is a sportsman paradise with Enid Lake being a great spot for boating, waterskiing and especially fishing. The world record for the largest ever Crappie was broken with a fish caught in the lake during 1954. Hunting is popular too, with many many acres open during the hunting season for you to use. There is also an 18-hole minigolf course and an 18-hole disc golf course if you prefer to spend your days on the fairway and greens.
The camping facilities at George P Cossar State Park are also top notch and the park offers full hook-up sites, which is rare to find in Mississippi. In total there are 76 campsites that all offer full hookups. George P Cossar State Park is open all year round and peak season runs May until August.
