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.

My stay was a hot and humid one! I was disappointed to see all the downed branches and limbs throughout the park. Not sure how long ago they fell, but there was no clean up going on. The gate attendants were very nice and seemed to take pride in their work.

We enjoyed our stay of 4 nights. We took 3 of our great grandkids ages 6, 11 and 13. They all went fishing but only the six year old caught his first and only one caught fish. Everyone enjoyed themselves even though it was extremely hot. Our youngest son just wanted to go camping for his birthday. Since his dad has been sick we haven’t gone all year.
