Very nice Campground.

We stayed in both section B, and A. The pad in section B could use some work, but everything about section A was delightful!

The CG Hosts in each area were both helpful, and friendly!

All in all (aside from a frustrating mechanical issue with our motorhome) our time at Sprnighill was terrific.

We will be back.

We have stayed here a couple of times and find it to be a quiet, beautiful park with lake access and views in the A loop. It's close to Fort Smith for shopping and visiting a relative of ours. I am grateful for the heated showers, as we visited in October, however the women's accessible shower did not dispense water when I pushed the button. I tried it numerous times, and pressed hard for 10 seconds. No water came out. I also tried the handle above the button, and it didn't budge. I was frustrated at this because I had already disrobed and set out all my shampoo, soap and other needed items in the stall. Fortunately the regular showers with smaller benches provided a warm, but not hot, shower. I tried finding the host to notify them, but couldn't identify which site they were at, so I left a note and slid it into the window at the check-in office. The restrooms and showers were very clean, however.
I thought some of the campsites where it looked like people were full-time residents looked a bit rundown. One had a storage tent that had a torn roof flapping in the wind.
Otherwise I gave it a four star for other good things. We enjoyed hiking on the trails all through the park and noted numerous mountain bikers using them, especially trails leading off from loop B.
