Enid Lake

One of the four lakes managed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers in North Mississippi is Enid Lake. The Enid Lake Project was built starting in 1947 and was finished in December 1952. The Yazoo Headwater Project, which includes Enid Lake, was created to help save the Mississippi Delta against flooding.

Some of the most cutting-edge camping facilities in the area may be found at Enid Lake. Our campgrounds are particularly well-liked by campers. Five Class A campgrounds are maintained and run by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers at Enid Lake. These campgrounds are Wallace Creek, Persimmon Hill, Chickasaw Hill, Ford's Well, and Water Valley Landing. In addition to offering first-rate camping options, Enid Lake also offers a wide range of other outdoor activities, such as hiking, boating, swimming, picnicking, fishing, hunting, horseback riding, and wildlife viewing. The National Recreation Reservation Service has named Enid Lake as one of the Top 10 Fishing Spots in America and Persimmon Hill Campground as one of the Top 100 Family Campgrounds twice. In addition to being a camper's paradise, Enid Lake is also the place where a world record-breaking white crappie, weighing an astonishing 5 pounds 3 ounces, was caught.
