no one was at the check in shack , no clear instructions on how to check in , large rocks on the bank made you lose a lot of hooks and sinkers , camp ground was very nice and loved the roof over the picnic tables , all and all give it a 6 out of 10

Very nice space and view. We loved the quiet and saw some beautiful birds, but there are a couple of weaknesses. First, there really should be easier access to large trash cans. There are a few large dumpsters, but not well-situated--many campers will have to walk quite a way to find them, and that's especially annoying to those of us with dogs who scoop their poop. Second, though we paid ahead there was no information on how to check in, and nobody around to help. Finally, when we left we found that the cesspit at the dump site was full so we had to go to Pine Bluff to dump our sewage; and again, there was nobody around to consult with. Cellphone signal was just about non-existent, but we can't fault the campground for that. Having said all that, we will be back. The good outweighs the bad. I would say that the full dump site was a fluke, but they REALLY need to provide more trash receptacles.

Beautiful park! Quiet and right on the river. Camp sites were level and spacious with a good distance between sites.

Nice, quiet, peaceful campground with beautiful view of the river. Our back-in site was long and roomy. While there are no trails within the park, we enjoyed walking the loops. Well located for a quick trip to Little Rock. Bathhouse was clean. It was a bit disturbing that there was no one watching who was coming and going thru the entry gate and we did not see a camp host our entire 1-week stay.

Well this park was the first park I never saw anyone in the office. The bathroom need lots of work. No soap at all to wash your hands or anything to dry your hands. The showers need lots of cleaning. The dumpster were full to capacity the whole week we were there. The campsite are nice but it seems like no one takes care of them. It such a beautiful place just need people to run it.
