We set up the reservation online and received the usual confirmation stuff. However the address they gave was not really an address at all rather a vague address that included Old Post Rd site B Dardanell lake. This sent us into a dead end in a neighborhood. No one was available to contact as we arrived at about 5:00 pm. Had to find another option near lake in another campsite.

Campground is smaller in size, so it’s not overly crowded. Grounds very well maintained. Cell phone service (Verizon) was good. Only complaint was that they needed to treat for ants around the campsites. Ants were everywhere. Ants found their way into our camper. Sitting in our chairs outside, several of us were bitten. When we left I found ants INSIDE my car! A bit of spray or granular treatment would go a long way…and I would have rated higher if not for the ants (not just a few…I’m talking thousands).

The view was amazing! Due to the recent storm our tree was broken with debris around our campsite. The only bad thing was that the grass was not mowed, so it made it inconveniently itchy when going in and out of our tent. Overall a good place to camp out.

Nice park, but the showers are a lawsuit waiting to happen. Water was scalding hot on both men's and women's side, not adjustable. Park hosts were aware of problem for several days.

Policies & Rules

Cancellation policy

  • Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
  • Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
  • Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
    • Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
  • Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
  • Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
  • Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.

Local regulations

  • Certain items and activities are prohibited on project lands without written permission from the District Commander.

Fires & fuel

  • Buy firewood locally and burn it on-site to protect forests from pests.

Wildlife & food storage

  • To prevent invasive species at combined facilities, clean your gear, and follow aquatic guidelines for boats.
