Prime Location in Oxford, Mississippi
Roundabout Oxford RV & Water Resort is located near Oxford, Mississippi, approximately 70 miles south of Memphis, Tennessee. Easily accessible via Interstate 55 and U.S. Highway 278, the resort provides convenient city access without the hustle and bustle of a major metropolitan area.
Oxford, a vibrant college town with a population around 27,000, offers an fun cultural scene, great dining, and ample shopping, all enhanced by the presence of the University of Mississippi.
Campsite Options and Details
The resort features approximately 150 RV sites, all equipped with full hookups including 50, 30, and 20 amp service. Impressively, about 80% of these sites are pull-through, ideal for larger rigs, with the remaining 33 back-in sites. Each site is paved, level, and spacious, providing room for campers to spread out comfortably.
Dean highlighted the absence of shade due to the resort's recent opening but pointed out strategic site choices such as back-in sites along Chillin' Way (especially sites 117-124), which offer morning shade and additional privacy due to their location near a retaining wall and hillside.
The resort also includes 20 luxurious cottages available for rent, each fully furnished and well-appointed, including amenities like a full kitchen, comfortable beds, and plenty of living space.
Exceptional Resort Amenities
Roundabout Oxford goes above and beyond typical campground amenities, offering a truly resort-level experience:
Welcome Center
The Welcome Center greets visitors with offices, a business center, restrooms, golf cart rentals, and bike racks. Guests can also enjoy morning coffee and a patio overlooking the newly completed mini-golf course.
Grand Lodge
The Grand Lodge serves as the resort's central hub. Here, campers find a well-stocked camp store, community room with a full kitchen and bar, arcade room, sports TV lounge, and the casual dining restaurant called "The Canteen." Covered balconies with rocking chairs and ample entertainment options create a relaxing atmosphere for families.
Water Resort
Spanning approximately 2.5 acres, the water resort is a highlight, featuring two impressive water slides, family pools, hot tubs, a lively kiddie pool complete with playground and water cannons, and a 912-foot lazy river. An adults-only pool area and a swim-up bar ("Hoka Hut") further enhance the experience, offering refreshments accessible directly from the lazy river and the adult pool.
Food and Drink Options
Guests have numerous convenient dining choices onsite, including The Canteen for casual meals, the Hoka Hut swim-up bar, the Molly Barr Bar concession, and the Beach Bar serving tasty cocktails. The camp store also provides snacks, ice cream, and camping essentials.

The resort boasts pickleball courts, cornhole areas, a Gaga ball court, classic board games, an arcade, basketball courts,
