- jmaottoExplorerStayed at Rivertown RV park twice this summer. Easy in and easy out with plenty of room. Friendly people and the park is clean and well maintained.

I have stayed at Ameristar, just north of 20. Ok place close to casino but make sure you tell them you want a level site! Some of their sites, particularly on the south and west of the campground, are pretty unlevel.
We were there a week ago and agree that some of the sites are very unlevel - front to back. All the sites and roads are paved with grass in between the sites. Some 30 amp, some 50 amp. - Since this thread includes "attractions" I am going to suggest you go see the Vicksburg National Military Park. You can drive through the area and stop at various sites where key Civil War battles were fought. At the end of the drive is the ironclad Cairo. It was fished out of the Yazoo River years ago and placed on display. It is covered and the ship has been pieced back together. It is quite impressive and you can actually walk through parts of it. Now keep it mind it is not all intact, but the frame is there and they have made a good effort for you to experience the size and layout of the ship.
Here is a link to my blog where I show pictures of it:
Cairo
Truly fascinating.
Dale - AtleeExplorer IIWe stayed at the Ameristar which is owned by Ameristar Casino in very late February last year. It was a good place to stop.
That was our first real stop on our tour across America. If you are looking for a "resort" style RV park, this isn't it. But if you are looking for a nice clean rv park to drop the trailer while you did sight seeing, etc. it's great.
I thought I got good value for the money. - ksbowmanExplorer IILast year on the way to Florida we stayed at the Ameristar and liked it. Clean, friendly, pet friendly and reasonable. We plan on staying again this year. The shuttle picked us up at our door for supper and breakfast. We did have to pay for meals though. Didn't have to cut loose either.
- Dance_ChickExplorerWe also stayed at Askew's Landing 2 years ago. It was fine..would stay there again. Did not us bath house though.
- cheteckieExplorerWe stayed at Askew's Landing in Edwards, MS, just a few miles from Vicksburg. It was a nice park, but we did not use the public bathrooms or showers.

- TrlrboyExplorerWe stayed at Rivertown a couple of years ago. I have some pictures of the RV park in an album about Vicksburg. Check it out.
