Ameristar RV Park

If you are passing through Vicksburg (we were going from New Orleans up to Hot Springs, AR) this is probably the best place to stay. Nothing bad about the park, just nothing for the kids to do. They have a free shuttle to the casino if you need it.

I did have to go to the Magnolia RV Park to get propane...Ameristar is the place to stay.

Tons of in and out people just staying for a night but it was still good and quiet.

Sites were FHU but just a little bit skinny. Not quite long enough to park truck in front of 5th wheel.

Oh yeah, they had wifi that was actually pretty good! Cable service was not working while we were there.

This is about as good as you're going to find in the area of Vicksburg. We wanted to visit the Civil War battlefield and check out the town of Vicksburg. The park is owned by the casino, but not so close to cause any concern about traffic to and from the casino. I saw their security vehicle pass through the area several times during the night. The shower room was warm, clean, and the water was hot with good pressure. Many campers were only there for one night so there is a lot of movement in the mornings. Also, the grounds are very well lit up, which causes a lot of light coming in the windows all through the night. There is a train that passes nearby, but there is no whistle and it didn't cause any problems for us.

We stopped over for only one night but this is a good park to stay at for a longer visit if you have the time. It is convenient to the casino as well as all the sites along the river.

The entrance has a steep downhill grade when entering. The sites are on the tight side and even with a pull through we had to back out as there was a tree on one side and a light pole on the other along with cars parked in the street making it impossible to exit in forward. Other than that the staff was very nice and all the services worked well.

We did use the shuttle to go to the casino for dinner and it was easy to use on both ends.

The sites are laid out in typical RV park fashion, straight rows of diagonal pull-through sites. It was pretty good as an overnight stop just off I-20, with free WiFi that was actually usable, and a large grassy field good for short dog walks. Both Verizon and AT&T worked well. Our site and many others were un-level, with the front being much higher than the back. Even with all our wood blocks under the back tires and our jacks extended we could not get level. The sites (all pull-throughs) were also a little short, so our 37' motorhome and tow car didn't quite fit. We had to disconnect the car and pull it right up behind the RV. Others had to park their cars sideways. Site spacing was typical... fairly close to your neighbor, but not right on top of each other. We didn't visit the casino or the town, as ours was just an overnight stop. We'd consider staying here again overnight as the location near I-20 was convenient and it was relatively quiet, but we wouldn't go out of our way to stay again.
