About Aux Arc

Download a park map HERE  Aux Arc Campground sits on the shores of Ozark Lake in the picturesque Arkansas River Valley. "Aux Arc" is a name that originated with French explorers when they mapped the territory. The term means "the big bend," describing the bend in the Arkansas River. Over time, the name was simplified to "Ozark," thus the name for Ozark Lake.

Wonderful location and the volunteer at the front office was very helpful and willing to go above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of since we were already registered further up the road but suffered a tire blow out of the interstate and had to wait till well after dark for tow truck. Fortunately, Aux Arc had a site available for us to stay closer because had to wait till the next day for the tire to be repaired and placed back on. Had to pay for two nights at both places but was all good as just glad it all worked out.

This was our third stay at Aux Arc Park and we love this camp ground. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The grounds are beautiful and a long walk around the park will make you a new friend or two!

The park was well maintained this year, grass mowed, very few geese, and the restrooms were very clean.

This is our second time to camp here. It's been a nice clean park with friendly host. I don't understand why people are allowed to camp in the park for months on end simply by moving from site to site and making reservations in the spouse's name
TV reception and cell service was OK.

Sites on the water are very pretty although I would prefer they be a bit more separated, so look at the site map before booking. The camp hosts are great.
