BIG NOTE: Site 16 shares a water connection with site 15. The spigot is on the far side of site 15. Bring extra hose. View was amazing. Site in good shape. A little challenging for a newbie to back into.
Camp hosts were amazing! It was our first time camping with the camper we bought that morning. Very helpful to newbies. Park was nice and clean. Overall great. We will be back.

Beautiful site, right on the water, and with a fantastic view. A number of good hiking trails were a short drive away. Pack for some wind as it really was blowing the days we were there. And bring hand sanitizer or travel soap as there wasn't any in the restrooms.

Great campsites, all the sites have good lake views . Been there 3 times and itβs always well maintained.
Eureka Springs is only a short drive away, we like to go there for lunch. Donβt miss the Turpentine Creek cat rescue.

We love this campground. Stayed on site 8. Lovely views and very wooded. Only down side is the slope of the drive. It took several attempts to get our camper in. We have a 26' so probably much easier for a smaller trailer. Beautiful site.

Site and campground were tidy and well maintained. Didnβt use the bathhouse so I cannot review that. Beautiful gem on a beautiful lake. Only wish the campground wasnβt closed for half the year. Note that the pump out is not technically at the campground.

Great campground. Would give it a 5 star however this particular site is a nightmare to back into if you aren't experienced. Has shade and water access is not far at all.

Definitely one of our favorite campgrounds! Site 30 is almost perfect, only drawback is, it is a bit narrow making it almost impossible to fully extend awning, it hits on the permanent shelter. Next trip we will squeeze a little closer to the railing on the opposite side.
Camp hosts were very nice, clean restrooms and showers.
Easy drive to Eureka Springs
