Too crowded and none of the sites except one, just face the water. They are all turned toward the boat parking areas. No one ever came around, camp hosts to check on anyone, they just drove around on their golf carts. Love Ouatchita, but better campgrounds available.

We camped in site 51 in a 32 ft motorhome. The only thing that would have made the site better was more shade on the west side. The lake is beautiful, the neighbors were friendly and the staff was helpful. We look forward to returning to Crystal Springs.
