Company Description
|
Located in the heart of Mississippi’s pine belt region.
Paul B. Johnson State Park is the gateway to a natural wonderland marked by majestic long-leaf and loblolly pines, delicate dogwoods, and ancient oaks.
The deep forests surrounding Paul B. Johnson provide a picturesque setting for a variety of outdoor activities.
The University of Southern Mississippi (USM) is just a 20-minute drive to the north, making Paul B. Johnson State Park the perfect place to spend a football weekend.
Lake Geiger offers 300 acres of fresh water for fishing and water sports.
The lake is well-stocked with bass, crappie, catfish, and bream. A Mississippi fishing license is required for all persons between the ages of 16 and 65.
Licenses may be purchased at the park office for a nominal fee.
Fishing boats and canoes are available for rental year round.
Paul B. Johnson features 16 vacation cabins, all offering direct access to Lake Geiger. Each cabin accommodates five to six persons, and is furnished with bed and bath linens and basic kitchen equipment. All cabins are air-conditioned and heated; four cabins feature fireplaces.
Reservations are strongly recommended.
The Park office is open from 8:00 am - 5:00 pm daily except Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year’s Day.
