Beautiful time of year to be there.
The birds sang, the night creatures roamed and the bathrooms were clean!

We stayed at site 44B at Brady Mountain, and it was a great experience. The site was very clean, level, and well-kept
perfect for a tent, trailer, or camper. It had a nice view of the water across the street, and we were able to take our kayak right down to the water and launch nearby, which was super convenient. The marina views were beautiful

The site had electric hookups that worked well, but water was not directly on-site, so you need to fill up when you enter the campground. It was also close to the bathroom and shower facilities, which was a plus. Cell service was decent—not perfect, but workable.

Overall, the campground was quiet, clean, and very enjoyable. We had a wonderful time, as always, at Brady Mountain. Definitely recommend trying out site 44B if you’re planning a stay!

Camping is more difficult here because there is no water hookups. Nice campground but having water hookups would make it a 10

There's no confirmation checkin which is a little strange. This place is a hidden gem so it'd be a shame to go to waste. Could also hear music into the night after quiet hours so there needs to be a little more effort into making quiet hours enjoyable so that you can sleep.

Having had to abandon the pathetic campsite they gave us at Hot Springs Nat’l Park (Gulpha Gorge), we took a shot (& 40 min drive) to Brady Lake and we’re very pleased. Beautiful park with great sites. Only one negative and it was a big one: the park has a hideous huge generator that makes an incredibly loud and annoying noise. Worse, it’s located right next to the very best campsites. However, we camped a good 200 yards away so we could barely hear it. We will go back to Brady Lake, tho’, when our camping travels take us through Arkansas.

This spot #50 is my favorite being right next to the water and beach. Also being close to the end point you get to see the sunrise and the sunset without going anywhere. The bathhouse is very convenient and close. There is a generator close by that does make noise but it's so beautiful at this spot that it does not bother me. The spring and fall are my favorite times to be there with less people and better weather.

We had a beautiful spot, no. 56. Sunset views, nice parking for pontoon, and swimming in the cove. We were able to set up a 6 man tent, a 35 ft 5th wheel, and had plenty of parking for 2 vehicles. Using a 10x10 pop up canopy, we were able to create shade over the picnic table and plenty of trees to hang string lights. Overall, this was a great camping experience.

The spots are very close together. I don't recommend tent camping here. Really loud music all night which was horrible because we went there to enjoy some peace! The worst sleep for 2 nights in a row because of the loud music!
