Nice area, woody, quiet, remote. Bathroom remodeling timeframe over a year, I the spring of 2022 the new building was constructed but locked, Host reported "waiting on plumbing; connection" In summer 2022, observed new water service connection. COE reported waiting on new electrical service. In October 2022 observed new electrical connection, but bathroom still locked and unusable. New parking area at bathroom has not started yet so completion not expected until mid-2023. The COE should be able to do better.

We had a great campsite. It's a very pretty campground. Enjoyed going into Mena for a meal at the Branding Iron. Disappointments: One bathhouse was closed. The other didn't have any toilet paper and looked like it hadn't been cleaned in quite some time. The campground needs some TLC with repairs and upkeep.

We went in late August after school started back and campground was very quiet, not many campers on site so that was very nice. Only downside was that it was the end of August and it was hot. Campground sits in a low hollow below the lake damn with lots of trees so there was not much breeze. River was not flowing much due to decreased volume out of the dam so did not bring much relief. Other than the weather, the campground is just beautiful. We had a wily racoon who was able to open ice chests and enjoys, grapes, peaches, lunch meat and hotdogs so secure the lid to your ice chest! Bathrooms are kept clean and showers worked. Nice play ground for the littles. Would return again.
