Managed by the US Army Corps of Engineers, this boat-in and drive-in campground sits along the Arkansas River with a steep boat ramp providing water access. The site includes basic amenities like drinking water, restrooms, and a dump station, though pets are not permitted. One reviewer notes limited water access despite the riverside location, with only a few campsites available near the launch area.
Campers seeking more extensive facilities can explore camping near Dardanelle, or consider Petit Jean State Park Campground for a more developed camping experience with additional recreational opportunities.
