About: Archusa Creek Water Park is located in Quitman, Mississippi, just off Hwy. 45 and Hwy. 18 East. The 450 acre lake is a fisherman’s paradise with large quantities of bass, catfish, perch and bream. The whole family can enjoy camping, boating, swimming, water skiing and picnicking. The picnic areas are equipped with barbecue grills and family-size picnic tables.
Just a phone call will reserve a private pavilion or lodge hall. Archusa has four cabins for weekend outings or vacationing, and motor home hookups and aluminum boat rentals are available. In the fall of each year, the water park hosts its annual Forestry and Wildlife Festival featuring chainsaw sculpting, races, special events and activities for all ages. The blue green waters and piney woods provide relaxation for campers and fishermen year round. Other activities include a Dixie Youth baseball field, a disc (frisbee) golf course, a playground for the children, and a one-half mile nature trail for nature lovers.
