Our campsite was right on the river with the dam upstream. Quiet in the evening, not many trails to explore. It’s next to a recreation area with playground, soccer and BBall field as well as a disc golf course. No maps provided or any information. Price is right for power and electric hookups.

We arrived after the office was closed. The camp host units were clearly marked and a host came out to greet us right away. He was very friendly and helpful. We had a view of the dam and enjoyed walking around the area.

I couldn’t use the boat ramp. Sand too piled up on the ramp below water - my front wheels on the truck were in the water b4 my boat would float. Had to go to Dardanelle boat ramp every day.
Same as last several years…
