Not a campsite

This is not a campsite anymore. Code enforcement will call cops and have you trespassed!

Decent

Nice view of the lake. Boat ramp. Only one car camper in the area. There are plenty of spots to camp. Very shaded and cool breeze. 😎 No amenities, but it's a decent place to camp for the night to rest.

Exactly what I needed

This park offers no amenities, but was exactly what I needed. What it does offer is a level parking pad that is quiet and dark which is surprising given it is surrounded by Fort Smith. It also has a decent view of the Arkansas River. There is no check in or checkout. I just rolled in at 3am and quickly set up camp and went to bed. There were no other campers there.
