Clear Creek - Ozark Lake (AR)

5 ReviewsAdd Review

Sites at this Army Corps of Engineers campground cluster along the Arkansas River, with some positioned directly at the water's edge. The nine campsites accommodate RVs up to 56 feet with electric and water hookups, though several reviewers note that sites 4-9 function more like parking spots with picnic tables. Site 3 draws consistent praise for tree coverage and forest views.

The boat ramp provides direct river access for anglers and boaters. Charles Q. notes he "fish[es] this place often" and finds the facility consistently clean. Cell service reaches the campground reliably, and flush toilets with warm showers serve all sites. However, bathroom maintenance can be inconsistent - one recent visitor encountered an out-of-order restroom with a portable toilet replacement.

Long-term tenants occupy some sites year-round, which can create noise issues for short-term campers arriving after dark. The campground stays relatively quiet during daytime hours. Campers exploring campgrounds around Alma will find this location offers direct water access within minutes of town, though the closely-spaced sites and occasional maintenance issues make it better suited for RV travelers prioritizing river activities over a remote camping experience.

Visitors often highlighted the lakefront location with boat access and comprehensive amenities. A common theme was mixed site quality and bathroom maintenance issues. Most found it quiet, though occasional tenant conflicts were reported.

Bugs bugs bugs

I don’t have many nice things to say about this campground. The bugs were out of control. The bathroom was out of order and a porta potty was set up beside it. The site we chose,#3, was the best site. We found some good trees to set up our hammocks with a view of the forest. 1 and 2 were ok, 4-9 were downright terrible. Basically a parking spot with a picnic area. All the sites were close together. The check in process consisted of a guy in an unmarked vehicle driving up and striking up a conversation without identifying himself. Check out works the same. If you have a boat or tv this park may be nice but I wouldn’t camp here. The hike around nearby lake Alma was the highlight of our trip.

Great place to camp

They have all the amenities you'll need. Gorgeous sites, bathrooms houses, laundry room, showers, lot's of things to do. Only issue is some of their longterm tenants were paranoid since we came in late at night. They watched us & flashed their lights at us all night, drinking and being loud and obnoxious, screaming n screaming loudly. They even had the audacity to play police sirens on their phones to mess with us s if we were doing something illegal. I wanted to stay longer but couldn't after that night. Beautiful park though.

Pretty but Crowded

Overall this is a good place to camp or to park your RV at. The camp sites were a bit close together. Each slot has an RV electric hookup, fire pit, and picnic table. There are spots right next to the lake itself which look lovely at sunset. The bathrooms lacked soap and were a bit grimey (but it’s a lake so that’s relative).

Beautiful place

Fish this place often and also camp. They keep this place clean and have never had issues with other campers. Stays quiet. Only issue is, they do not have a cleaning station.
