This is a great place to take the family camping. Water hook ups, electrical hook ups, covered picnic area at the site, and dump station. They also have a bathhouse, but we used our camper. Kids enjoyed catching some brim fish on worms, playing in the sand near the swim area, and playing on the playground. Very peaceful and quite.

Quarry Cove is one of our fave places to camp! We cannot figure out why it seems to be underutilized much of the time. Our usual campsite is #29, but this time we tried something different (#31), loving both of these campsites for their spaciousness, views, and proximity to the water. Brought our small boat rather than our usual kayaks this time, and tho we caught only a few crappie, enjoyed beautiful sunsets on the lake almost every evening. This campsite is just so beautiful, with well appointed with covered picnic tables, convenient boat launch, a fish cleaning station, and friendly camp hosts. Campground is an easy stroll, with more challenging hiking at nearby Petit Jean or Mt Nebo. Tho we could not receive or make calls at the campground due to very poor cell service (ATT), we had fabulous Internet that afforded messaging and streaming TV. We’re thankful for this little slice of heaven relatively close to home.

We visited Quary Cove the first week of October, 2021. It was a beautiful park that is well maintained. The specific site was just perfect for us. A great view of the lake and the boat launch. Sites have plenty of room between them. Our day trips included Petit Jean State Park area, the Auto Museum and Mt. Magazine. We will definitely return

Very quiet and peaceful. Love camping there. Have been coming there for over 40 years. Nice places to eat are nearby and a golf course just up the road. Park attendants are extremely nice. Always willing to help in any way they can. Would recommend this place to anyone.
