Not all the bathrooms at Parker Bottoms were functional. We come every year and I’ve never had to wait to use the restroom until this year. Other than that, it was good!

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.

Car was parked in our reserved spot upon arrival. No one around. Could not find the owner. No one answered at guest house. If people are getting compensated as guest host, they could at least make themselves available. Especially at check in time. Could not get the ranger to come out. Couldn’t get anyone to help. Hours later, truck pulls up and lady gets out. Said it was hers. They were camping across from us and had left for the day. Told us she had used our spot as over flow parking. Are you serious? Some people just need to stay home.

The actual campsite experience was fantastic for my lady and I. We hung our hammocks and parked our yaks just fine. If you are kayaking or canoeing, be aware that the "walkin" access from the river is up a set of stone stairs that's pretty rugged and definitely a two person job to get up with a vessel. We paddled up river while the dam was generating and finding and getting up those stairs was the most difficult part. If you're driving in to the site and hauling in it's not a concern at all, there's a site up the road that has a real nice water entrance that I'd reccomend over the stairs. All in all, the physical site and the river were a great experience, just the disconnect between them that made things challenging.

Love this campsite. But it is beginning to get a bit overgrown. It needs some trimming and pruning. Showers could use some updating. But I love this campground and want to continue to visit.
