Beautiful campground. Our site was a little sloped but was able to make it work. Love being right by the water. Camp host was a very friendly man.

We loved this spot! It was the perfect spot by our tent where dad would fish and Littles could swim (eventhough it was cold for swimming during our stay) We look forward to visiting during the warmer times

Worst campground showers I’ve ever seen. No water temp control, cold building, gotta keep pushing a button to keep water on. Construction going on around the campground was very loud

Great campground and sites! Beautiful clear lake for swimming. Sites 28 and 29 share a driveway and would be very close neighbors if you aren't traveling together. Based on previous reviews we knew this and booked both sites. The campground is about 20 minutes from Eureka Springs.

Dam Site at Beaver Lake, AR has always been a favorite destination. Most of the waterside camp spots have been redone and redone well! Unfortunately, I gave my review 4 stars because we happened to reserve an area that has not been redone. We were located in the area of site 16. 3 of the 4 sites were usable, but visibly crumbling. There was one site at waters edge that should have been condemned until redone. One late afternoon we had a small car drive in with a mom and 2 kids. They needed to put up a tent. There was no place to pitch a tent. We happily let them pitch their tent on our small piece of grass. That poor family! Not one complaint from them and even though they were less than a foot from our RV. We made the best of it. I hope an investigation of this area will be the result of my review.
