The grounds are well kept and everything is clean. The only issue is the bath house. The hot water only lasts about 30 seconds.

Campground has nice space between sites, and was very flat for parking or setting up tents. There is not much in the way of vegetation between sites so you have clear line of site to almost every site. Near Arkansas Post National Memorial and along the banks of the Arkansas River. Great campground for kids to ride their bikes/scooters, there is shady trees in most of the campground as well. I did think it was buggy, probably due to proximity to the water. Camp host was great - very friendly and welcoming!

A very nice campground! The sites have good space around them so that you don't feel crowded. The bathrooms were clean. The showers are the kind where you can't control the water temperature and have the push button on/off - you have to keep pushing the button when the water times out. The campsite numbers aren't posted very well - they need to write the campsite numbers on the pavement at each site.

Great campsite and campground. Only complaint was extremely quick push button for showers. There has to be a better way.

Small quiet campground with not much aesthetic to enjoy, if you care. Great place to rack for a night but not much else. Fire pits and picnic tables nice. Bathrooms not nice. All slabs level. Easy access. Closest town 20 minutes.
