What Guests Are Saying
Dam Site River Campground offers a beautiful, shaded location along the White River, ideal for fishing with clean, well-maintained facilities. Many campers praised the spacious, private sites and the friendly camp host, making it a favored destination for repeat visitors. However, some concerns were raised about the early checkout time and the need for upgrades to the shower facilities.

It is a beautiful campground with large sites and we have camped there several times. However, this trip we arrived to find the water faucets padlocked at the sites even though the water was on in the campground and it was not below freezing at night. There was NO NOTICE that water could not be accessed at the site on the booking site or on the Beaver Lake website or even at the unmanned entrance booth (which did have other info posted). This information should be provided so campers can decide whether to visit that campground. I would not have driven 6 hours to camp there if I had been advised in advance as there are plenty of other places to camp that have water available at the site.

The site is a bit deceiving by sight. There is a dip in the drive that made the unhook from truck difficult. Had to have two blocks under front end levelers. The reservation site says water/electric and we arrived to a locked faucet. November 30 - Dec 1. There was no rate adjustment for that either. I tried through recreation.gov and was told to do that through the facility, where the gatehouse is locked up for the winter. Otherwise a pretty little park, very very quiet until someone fires up the loud diesel early a.m. or arrives late (after 10 pm) and bangs around setting up. Our site had a nice path to the river with some stone steps. Fish were not biting. Cold. Most the sites are long enough to accommodate bigger rigs. Ours had 50 amps.

Unfortunately it rained for several days and this particular site the runoff water puddled outside our door which was a big mess trying to enter and exit our RV. Otherwise we enjoyed the quietness and beauty of the site ... we stayed during the beginning of fall and the color of the leaves were so stunning.

Beautiful sites, we were disappointed the website didn't show how slooped the sites were because we had trouble leveling our 22ft camper when the other side of the road would have been fine. We still had a great time. We never saw any hosts so can't commit on them.
