Great camping

I have been camping at Fout's at Gamaliel Arkansas since I can remember. The sites are great but close to each other. The park is clean and well maintained with a playground for the littles, and they have clean, full bathrooms on site. Nearby to a dock and marina with rentals, bait and gear available.

Secluded but not on the water but not

Check out COE it looks like it is going to all or there abouts all reservations. Park was jammed this weekend but with the holiday not surprised. Plus many sites in the Mountain Home region were closed due to flooding. Not the campgrounds themselves but many sites that were on the water were in the water. Gamaliel is a little out of town but the campground is large and has several sections. Has an amphitheater beach boat ramp drinking water dump station flush toilets nice showers. Mature trees abound with a nice breeze off the water

Shady, large sites and most have a view of lake

This party is awesome for couples or families. Closer to the lake and had it's own swimming beach. Nice bathhouses and grounds well kept. Hosts are very nice and enjoyed the friendliness of everybody. This will definitely be a return campground yearly.
