Moved to south MS a few months ago. I’m in the North Moss Point area. I know there isn’t much down here but I’d like to get out and explore and hopefully meet some cool people. Cheers
 
yeah, im basically in the same boat youre in. we either go to arkansas or alabama. since you are way east of us, alabama is probably your best shot. we've done some time over in desoto and its OK for a weekend or so. central and north georgia is pretty much our go-to for hiking and exploring

New guy here, so I apologize... but when I was a scoutmaster, we would go camping at V-Bar in Kiln, MS all the time. I believe they rent out cabins, but also regular camping areas to the public. Beautiful lake, hiking trails, dirt roads everywhere, shooting range... worth looking into. (I'm not 100% sure they still do public reservations)
For simple camping practice runs, you can always check out the state parks like Percy Quinn in McComb, Bogue Chitto in Franklin, etc.
Looking forward to getting back into camping soon! I'm in southern LA, just southwest of New Orleans.
