Campground is lovely and lake is gorgeous and refreshing. In a tent I found distant generator noises somewhat annoying and there is a very bright light outside the bathroom which floods half the loop including this site which is quite far from it.

Site 26 and 17 are both awesome. Only issue at 26 was 30 amp receptacle was upside down. We had a great time.

Nice camp on beautiful Lake Ouachita. Plenty of water access from campsites to rocky beaches that are good for swimming. Great lake for kayaking and motorized water sports, with both secluded coves and plenty of open water. Campground is well maintained with clean facilities. Camp hosts are courteous and helpful.

What I loved was being able to dock my boat right in front of my campsite for the whole time. The site was large enough to enjoy the room.
