Swimming

Whether in a river, lake or stream, Scenic Rivers is stocked full of great swimming holes. Some, better known than others, are great places for the entire family to come and spend a lazy afternoon. Many of the areas offer camping and picnic spots, as well as trails and hiking areas for those not looking to get wet but still interested in participating in the fun.

Clear Springs is hidden deep in the Homochitto National Forest amid the pine trees and hills of rural southwest Mississippi. There is a 24-acre spring-fed lake with a swimming area and good fishing. It has 22 RV sites with water and electric hook-ups, as well as tent sites and primitive camping areas. There are two bathhouses with clean restrooms and wheelchair accessible showers.

Known for its beautiful rolling hills that span its scenic countryside Franklin County is also known for the popular creeks and rivers that run through it, such as McCall Creek and the Homochitto River. However, one of its best-kept secrets is a small, wooden bridge that lies over McGehee Creek. This bridge, adequately named Low Water Bridge, sits very low to the water. So low in fact, that whenever there is a sizable rain causing the creek to rise, the water will most likely flood the bridge. 

A pure white sandbar and rocks near the creek provide plenty of room for kids to play or adults to relax along the creek bed and soak their feet.  In most portions of the creek the water is quite shallow and clear so you can see straight to the bottom. Camping is also available nearby.
