Desoto State Park

Trick or Treating in DeSoto State Park’s Improved Campground
Wear your favorite costume if you wish! Candy stations are located through-out the campground, where campers will be handing out candy. Parking is very limited to the public inside the campground, so for those that don’t mind walking we suggest parking at DeSoto’s Country Store or Picnic Area and walking up to the Lower loop via the gold trail (path behind Country Store) or the silver trail at the end of the store’s parking lot.

Improved campground gates will open at 3:00 pm, no public entry will be allowed before 3:00 pm & after 5:30 p.m. Please do not line up at the gate prior to 3:00(no vehicles will be allowed in prior to 3:00).

 

PLEASE NOTE: In the Improved Campground, the upper & lower loop will be CLOSED TO VEHICLE TRAFFIC from 2:30 pm to 6:00 pm

Parking can be found at the campground bathhouses and along the roadsides in the campground. Please note parking is limited and in the past this event has had very high visitation. Please be courteous and do not park vehicles on campsites or on the road leading to the store.
