Lake Chicot State Park Campground

Loved it! Great trails nice lake very quiet in November! Only weird thing is the showers only have one temperature for water…it’s warm water.

Waterfront sites are wonderful, however the other sites are much less attractive. Clean facilities.

Very nice out of the way quiet State Park. Lots of space and not very full in late September. Bathroom and showers were great. Clean, good water pressure and plenty of hot water. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Verizon signal weak. Noseeums and other mosquitoes a little bad but could be worse.

Nice park. Quiet and peaceful on a Sunday evening. Spots are narrow and had a little trouble getting parked but we made it. Parking close to Clean beautiful individual bathrooms. Would definitely come back.

Super quiet overnight spot for us. Amazing sunrise and bird activity. Might be light on leg stretching activities for some (no hikes). TMobile good coverage

This is a beautiful campground on Lake Chicot in Arkansas.   The lakeside sites on so nice.  You can watch the sun sets on the lake.  There are cypress trees at the lake's edge all around the lake.  The nearby town is small, but does have groceries and a few good restaurants.  

Staff in the office are very helpful and pleasant.  We have stayed here twice now and there are generally sites available to choose from.  There are some maintenance issues but they are working on upgrades in the campground.

After booking through Arkansas State Parks website, we received a follow up call from the park itself which was unusual but very nice. We booked site 42 in area B but there was standing water in the site so we got site 50. We chose this site because it was on higher ground and relatively close to the bath house in area D. The bath house in our area is no longer opened. Bath house D is very nice. We had no problems switching sites probably due to the off season.

Camping areas C and E are closed. Area F has full hook-ups and 30 amps. The sites are nice but a little short. Cabins are VERY nice. Area A contains the prime sites with full hook-ups and 30 and 50 amps. There is a bait store and a marina which rents boats (closed due to off-season). There is a fishing pier, basketball court, pool, 3 pavilions, playground, and a horseshoe pit. The visitor's center is very nice and informative.

Wildlife seems to be abundant as we saw dozens of deer, large raccoons, squirrels, pelicans, and ducks.

Cell phone (Verizon) and antenna reception are good possibly because there are no leaves on the trees.

If I could give less than 1 star, I would. This park was very dark, arrived late and could not see any camp site markings because it was so dark. The roads to our camp site was horrible . The only good experience was the bath house. It was clean and well lit.

There was only one other camper there, and they were loud and obnoxious. The only plus was a huge beautiful owl that stayed by and visited. The restrooms were full of spider webs. Will not stay there again.
