It's a nice park. I stayed away from the water in #43. It was more suitable for an RV than a tent, as the areas to pitch were few and not spectacular.
The place where I set my tent, at the end of the drive-in near the stop, was actually very comfortable. There was no staking it out, and I was on a bed of lichen/moss. The facilities were clean, and there was a shower. The campsite had a nice table, a stove pedestal, and a lantern hook. Deer were around the area. It was a good night in the woods and my first foray into Arkansas for camping.

Nice and quiet place this time of year. To bad the camp grounds are opening year round.

I enjoyed our stay tremendously! I do not care for the bath houses. I wish the bath houses were like the ones at Gilham Lake Cassatot Reefs. I also wish the area had been mowed before the weekend not on Monday. But I Love the trashcans everywhere and the campsite set up was Great!

We really enjoyed taking the grand kids camping here. It is a nice quite and beautiful park! No cell or tv coverage was not a problem, good to get away from it for a couple of days!

The time at Parker Creek was amazing. Clean bathhouse, trash emptied daily, and the rangers are helpful. We love to hike and ride our bikes around the park along with the surrounding area. We were in site 11 which was level, the only down side is the picnic table is on the back side of the camper, the stairs are on the road side. We were with a large group so it worked out well because it gave us a big area to gather, if we were camping alone it would have been a small issue.

Nice park. Good amenities, nice lake, good sites.
Directions to site not good, you may miss the last turn. Note, road to park is all paved, if you get to a gravel or dirt road, you're going the wrong way. ALso, I believe GPS coordinates are off, placing you in the middle of the woods away from the campground, not a good result if pulling an RV.

Very nice campground. Water, electric and trash at all sites (except the 3 tent only). Bathrooms are a bit small for the number of sites, but I never experienced a line to use them. Bathrooms were cleaned early every morning and trash was collected at that time, too.
Site also had picnic table, grill, fire pit, lantern post and a fun prep table.
Only issue was flies.
Interesting trail east of #35- Cinnabar mine trail.
The lake is beautiful. Since the campground is on a "finger" of Greeson on the SW side, it's almost like having a private little lake. The wooded hills make it feel very secluded.

Beautiful lakeside ACoE campground on Lake Greeson, just north of Murfreesboro, AR. Our campsite 26 had 30/50 Amp power and water, and we were level while unhitched with no problem in our 26’ Airstream. There’s a 2-lane dump station that is easily accessible. There are two restroom buildings with 2 toilet stalls and one shower stall in each men’s & women’s bathrooms. Showers are small, and the immediate dressing area is tiny with no shelf and only one small hook, so keeping your stuff off the wet floor is tough, and dressing is awkward.
There is virtually no cell signal, but StarLink works if you can get a clear enough view of the sky through the trees. Only Dollar stores available in nearby Murfreesboro as their grocery store burned down and has not been rebuilt as of 4/24, so get groceries in Nashville - 40-45 minutes south. Public boat launch and “beach” area centrally located. There’s an easy 3/4 mi. hiking path just off the pavement loop east of the Lake inlet. We were there in April, and the tree pollen was VERY heavy.
