Holmes County State Park, State park and conservation area in Holmes County, Mississippi
The park extends over a natural area with two lakes covering 88 acres, surrounded by hardwood forests that provide a home for local wildlife species.
The Mississippi Department of Parks established this recreational space in 1935 during a period of state conservation efforts and development of public recreational areas.
The park includes an amphitheater and meeting rooms where local communities gather for outdoor activities and educational programs about Mississippi's natural environment.
Visitors can access 12 cabin units, 28 camping pads, fishing spots in English Lake and Odum Lake, plus hiking trails and an archery range.
The two lakes within the park contain populations of Bluegill, Crappie, Catfish, and Largemouth Bass, making it a primary fishing destination in central Mississippi.
