J P Coleman Campground

You don’t have to venture far on your Iuka camper rental to experience the outdoors in roughly the same way as the ancient Native Americans. Find the best RV rentals in Tishomingo County and experience nature like the Paleo Indians did thousands of years ago. Lying in the foothills of the Appalachian, the Tishomingo State Park draws nature lovers and history aficionados alike to its timeless natural beauty. Huge boulders covered in moss are sprinkled throughout the hillsides, while hiking trails of easy to moderate walking are lined with colorful wildflowers that make for a truly magical nature walk. The rocks in Tishomingo State Park are made for climbing, and both Bear Creek and Haynes Lake are open for fishing. On the other hand, canoe trips are launched only from Bear Creek. If you ever would like to reach the Gulf Coast from Mississippi via a waterway, the 234-mile Tennessee-Tombigbee Waterway, built by the Army Corps of Engineers, will get you there. Follow the route, and you will pass by Civil War sites, antebellum homes, and Native American burial mounds along the way. But if your intent is less navigational and more recreational, the "Tenn-Tom” is a wildlife watching hot spot as it provides a migration corridor for animals and offers a veritable playground for swimming, fishing, and boating. On land, an epic and historic journey awaits when you follow the 444-mile Natchez Trace Parkway in a campervan rental. Roughly retracing the "Old Natchez Trace," the parkway, a couple of hours’ drive when you rent a camper near J P Coleman Campground, offers scenic driving with ample opportunities to hike, bike, and camp along the route. Leaf peeping during fall is a popular pastime along the parkway, and some of the most popular spots to admire the changing foliage are the Old Trace Drive, the Swan View Overlook (both in Tennessee), and the Freedom Hills Overlook (in Alabama and Mississippi).
