This is by far the nicest COE park we’ve experienced! The sites on the “peninsula” were nicely spaced, and from site 20 we had water views in front and in back of us. There was a covered picnic table, and the site was nice and level. Because of the twisting roads into Eureka Springs, it’s about 25-30 minutes into the town, but the views on the way are breathtaking! I would definitely stay here again in a heartbeat!

Beautiful, nice place to camp. Bathrooms close. Everybody seemed to have a dogs, so the barking was not pleasant. Overall a good place.

Perfect site right on the shore. Wanted to be on the peninsula, but this was pretty damned good. The wind though was surprising. I had to erect a wind barrier just to allow a charcoal grill to work. Nonetheless, this was a beautiful site. We wanted to be on the peninsula, as stated before. We walked there and there were at least 21 vacant sites, but when we made our reservation, there were NO SITES available. How does that happen?
The 30 amp receptacle had a ground fault, so no power. Fortunately, I had a 50 amp dog bone and so we were in business.
Also, like other sites around Beaver Lake, most sites have electric only. So plan your water, and sewage usage accordingly.

There is not a bad site on the island.
You can see the lake from any site and several are right on the lake.

Very beautiful view. Out site wasn't very level. We had to use all our leveling blocks. We are 1st year campers and this was my favorite spot.
