Very nice and clean campground. Only stayed for an overnighter but I thought it was a nice place to stay.

Only stayed the Friday night due to ridiculous loud environment from loud music and screaming to gunshots into the river. Camp host participated in the loudness and refused to answer about refund for the second night and negotiations of partial for the 1 st night. Immediately packed up at sunrise and left for elsewhere.

Great little park, away from the noise and lights of the city right on the banks of the Arkansas river. The sites are level, save for a couple of them, water and electric are available and reliable. There are some trees that need cut down or trimming, but otherwise a very well maintained camp with friendly hosts and routine patrol visits.

Tar Camp is always a favorite of ours and stop there anytime in the area. The spaces are hugh, and we pull our motorhome face into the river so we can watch the barges going by. We had a bit of a problem with our 50 amp breaker, but Karen was very responsive and had it fixed right away. Its a bit in from the interstate, but well worth it.

Tar is a beautiful camping area with excellent volunteer staff. Like that it is locked at night so you will not get much non-camping traffic.
