11/2/24 - IMPORTANT DRIVING INFORMATION!
If traveling SOUTH on Highway 49, please make note of this important message.
(It doesn't apply if traveling North on Highway 49)

When traveling SOUTH on Highway 49 - the typically used, very large u-turn (at Muse Road intersection) that is required for entry to Wendy Oaks is blocked for construction.  My recommendation is to drive our "back road route" until this is resolved (~1-2 months).  Please call/text (601-942-6611) or email (info@wendyoaksrvresort.com) for this back road route map.  (It only detours you ~0.5mile so a short route).  I will personally call you the day before arrival to ensure you have this information. But feel free to call/text/email before your day of arrival as well. I apologize for this current situation but the great news is the construction will eventually improve the highway for entry into Wendy Oaks RV Resort.

Wendy Oaks RV Resort is a dog friendly park.
Owners must keep dogs on a leash at all times and pick up
their waste at all areas within the park, including your site yard.


Thank you!

Just left after a 3 day stay here. We loved this place. Melanie (owner) is the sweetest thing. She is so pleasant and helpful. We highly recommend staying here, strolling around the lake, visiting with Melanie, watching the ducks and stopping at Donna's fresh product just down the road. Loved our stay ! Thank you Melanie -
