This is a very nice Corps of Engineers campground on the Arkansas River. There are actually 2 campgrounds, one larger and more spacious than the other. We stayed in space B-15 which was a very large campsite with plenty of room and nice views of the river with water and electric service. T-Mobile cell signal was not strong in the park for those who need cell coverage. For us it was just fine. We stayed here in a 30 ft 5th wheel.

We had a good campsite and enjoyed the whole park. Showers were bad,water to hot but they were fixed /repaired.
The locks observation areas should be reopened to the puplic. Good trails to walk and good dumpsite.
We have camped here many years and will be back.

Disappointed that this Army Corps of Engineers campground does not have handicap sites. We miss the previous hosts that manned the booth. They were very friendly unlike the hosts that were in the booth last fall. Otherwise the campground is great. Love watching the barges that pass by.

The up keep is HORRIBLE!! One of our campsites B19 was so grown up we could not get off the Seive way when we set out! We ask them about weedeating and was told “ we could bring our own and weed eat the spot” ! This is not acceptable when u pay for a nice spot! We camp there all summer long for the past few years never had issues until the past 2 summers! Rude park attendants now!

Our experiences at Springhill have always been good. We rally with a group of people every September and it's fun to walk and talk with everyone. The campsites on the east side of the highway are large and the bicycle trails are fun. Casey's fuel is found about a mile to the south, and a Walmart Supercenter is just a few minutes away in Barling.
