About Roosevelt State Park
A 150-acre body of water, Shadow Lake, forms the center of this park, bordered by the western edge of Bienville National Forest between Jackson and Meridian. The land sits just off Interstate 20 and falls under the oversight of the Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries and Parks. Its position along the forest boundary places visitors at the meeting point of managed woodland and lake shoreline.
Hours, fees, camping, reservations and closures are set by the park and change often. Check the official park site before you go.
