Spring Camping at Hattiesburg-Okatoma River KOA: Beat the Heat & Enjoy the Fun!

Spring is one of the best times of the year to go camping! The days are warm but not too hot, the nights are cool and comfortable, the flowers are blooming, and nature is bursting with life. At Hattiesburg-Okatoma River KOA, we love this season because it’s the perfect opportunity to enjoy the outdoors before summer’s heat kicks in. Plus, our pool is warming up, making it the ideal time to take a refreshing dip. If you’re looking for a reason to book your spring camping trip, check out all the exciting events we have lined up!

Are you a Southern Miss fan? Stay with us while you cheer on the Golden Eagles at USM baseball and softball games this spring! Our campground is the perfect place to relax before and after the big game.
