WIGGINS — Flint Creek Water Park and Campground is upgrading amenities across the site as officials work to improve the visitor experience.

The park features a 700-acre lake, water park and campground. Recent upgrades include renovated cabins, improved campsites and a new 18-hole disc golf course.

Michael Clark, manager of Flint Creek, said cabin renovations have been underway for about 2½ years. So far, 13 cabins and one bunkhouse have been remodeled with new paint, flooring, appliances and furniture.

“We’ve also done some upgrades to some of the campsites, and hopefully next month we’ll start on a completely new campground,” Clark said.

Clark said the park also plans to add a campground called Camp Cowboy for visitors who use the horseback riding trails.

Funding for the work comes from the Pat Harrison Waterway District, which manages Flint Creek and eight other recreational camping areas.

Clark said the park is also seeking federal grant funding for future projects, including repaving roads throughout the site and building a pickleball court.

The new disc golf course allows the park to host professional tournaments, with events already scheduled for November and December.

Clark said interest in the park has grown as renovations continue, with some visitors already booking cabins and campsites up to a year in advance.

“We’ve got people coming back. They’re liking the renovations that we’re doing and the improvements we’re making to the park,” Clark said. “Things are looking up.”
