PROS: Such a beautiful little campground! Well-maintained, stunning views from every site. Good cell reception if you have to work while there.
CONS: COE does not provide paper maps for campers. The attendant said she’s waiting for delivery of them. No maps and no attendants on Saturdays or Sundays made it difficult to find the pump out station, which we later discovered is at a separate location.
Site 27 allows for wonderful panoramic lake views but is a challenge to back into, especially in the dark. Photo doesn’t show that you have navigate through two tight turns (while backing in) to park your camper.

This is a beautiful little campground on a little island in Beaver Lake. Wish we had more time in nicer weather. The day we got there the Fire Co. came out to warn us of Tornado chance that night-and they would come sound their sirens if we needed to evacuate to the bathhouse.We only got thunderstorms-Thank God. but nice to know people were looking out for us! Other than that-well kept beautiful area. If you get into Rogers, a very nice little restuarant is Havana tropical Cuban restuarant-Wonderful food, cute decor in and out-patio for outside dining and nice people! Also, we needed to take Uber to Urgent Care-all Uber drivers we had were good, professional and caring people-as were the staff at Urgent Care.

Campsite was extremely slanted. Took hours to level camper in order to get the slide out which put our steps extremely high off the ground. Would highly recommend visiting before you book. Pictures are not accurate.

We camp here every year, one of the best camp grounds anywhere.

Overall, it is an exceptionally well-run site. The only drawback was the dump station. It was across the highway and difficult to maneuver with my fifth-wheel. There is really no area to wait your turn. Unfortunately, a recent guest had a dumping mishap and there was too much of a mess for me to deal with. We ended up driving home and dumping there.

Close to Eureka Springs which is a great place to spend a cold windy day like we had last weekend. Excited to see that water hydrants have been added to a number of the campsites on the "island" so no longer need to bring water or fill up before parking.
