Beautiful view. Nice site but very difficult to level. The pad is very high on the passenger side.

Would be a great spot except for ANTS! Not just a few outside, swarms of ants inside. We tried everything and could not get rid of them. Happens every time we camp in this area. Love the park and come often but won't get this campsite again. Happened in the hot summer in #29 too last year too.

We love Wave land Park and this site was great. The site was level and easy to get the motor home set up. The view is beautiful and other than a little traffic we enjoyed our stay. This is a great park for bike riding. The internet is sketchy even with a booster and we were able to pick up 5 antennae tv stations.

The park was nice, had a great camping experience, until the trip home. When we were leaving the campground we hit a tree limb over the main road in and out, just about a1/4 mile past the campground. It broke the front ac unit on our fifth-wheel. I know, my fault, should have been watching and went to one side or the other. You’d think someone with the park would have it trimmed back tho. There’s no telling how many campers have been damaged by it.

Ended up here because Mt Magazine campground was full even booking two months in advance. Recommendation from folks there and so glad we stayed at Waveland Park instead!! Added a third night. Campsite was incredible. More for RV’s but we had level space for our tent on the ground. Campground was ultra quiet during the week. Relaxing sunsets, campfires, and star gazing. Perfect to recharge from hectic work life on a long road trip. Pretty convenient for nearby hiking. Showers were lukewarm at all times of the day so that was a bummer but literally our only minor complaint that resulted in…brief showers.
Still, for $20 a night, this was an absolute steal!!
Would highly recommend and will return if in this part of the country again!
