Willow Beach

Small campground with only 21 spots ran by the Corps of Engineers. It’s very quiet. The campground is well maintained however along the shoreline a lot of garbage has washed up the water looks to be a popular fishing spot. I would definitely stay again but next time I’m bringing a fishing pole.

This is a pretty campground with huge trees for shade. The sites are extremely level! I didn’t even need to level my pop-up camper!! The water hyacinths were in full bloom while we were here and are beautiful!! I will be coming back next year!

50 Amp electric, water no sewer hook up but dump station. Spaced spread out not crowded. Campground is low and will be soggy after rain.

Well manicured, spacious lots.

Willow beach is a very pleasant campground on the river. Though close to Little Rock, it felt remote. The site we had was level with a view to the river. The bathrooms and grounds were "military" clean and maintained. My only issue was the lack of staff. The place runs itself, apparently. There was no staff on site, not even the camp hosts. A bad storm rolled through and was upsetting enough that we left a day early with the potential for even worse the next day. Otherwise, it was a great campground.

We had a great stay very easy to find, great water view. All the amenities were nice and very clean. The sites were nicely spaced out. Would recommend staying here whether camping, RV or camper all would be great.

Really pretty site with lake in the back yard, which made sunsets so enjoyable. Locals warned us (a day late) to beware of mosquitoes as sunset). We ventured into Little Rock for fun, which was about a 20 min drive. It is also a little over an hour to Hot Springs Village. The site is mostly level, a little close to neighbors but they are not right on top of you. There are shade trees. The showers were ok. Hot water, a little run down in my opinion but hubby thought they were fine. The only thing that would have made this better is sewer at the sites. There is a dump station so that’s good.

Stopped for one night while traveling mid week. Very peaceful surroundings. Ample space between sites.

Easy in and out. Great views all around. The corps score. Some very large camp sites.

Great for a quick nights stay! Beautiful surroundings right on the water and well maintained. Reserved online $19/night for a 66’ space, with w/e. Thanks to those who cancelled at the last minute! It was very kind of you to cancel the reservation to allow others a spot for the night! Very considerate given they probably didn’t get a refund.

Over the past few years this park has become extremely nice due to extra maintenance such as mowing and weed eating. It’s a perfect place to stop when going through Little Rock or spend a couple weeks. 

This was by far the most maintained campground I’ve ever visited. The grass is cut almost every day leaving beautiful spaces for thatch. Also fishing access is right behind the sights. Very happy I booked this campground at such a low cost. It actually made my visit to Little Rock pleasant. I could not imagine staying anywhere else.

We are four season campers and we love this park. Level paved pads. Clean and quiet! Gracious hosts. This is a gem to keep in your favorites.

Beautiful campsite along the Arkansas River. The sites are all very spacious with very long back in driveways. Some of the sites had covered picnic tables, which was great. It is near water so there are a lot of mosquitos, so come prepared. The only downside is the bathroom/shower rooms. There are four individual ones and they all feel like the heat is on in them when it is 100° here today. The toilet paper is out or almost out in all of them and there is no soap in any of the dispensers. Other than that they all appeared clean. Again, as long as you are prepared for that, this is a great campground.

This was our first or second trip with our new camper and it was great. We ventured to the local market, Me and McGee, for some fresh veggies and sides for dinner on the grill. Our site had a covered picnic table that was really handy.

This was a nice facility, not for RVs than tent camping. Great play ground but quite a walk for bathroom facilities if tent camping.

We loved the view! Looked like a great place for kayaking/boats and fishing. There were water views on both sides of the campsites. More people than I expected to see on a Monday, but the campsites were a decent distance apart.

Stayed here in February so no bugs like the other mentioned. Nice large mostly level spots, which most spots are right on river, great covered picnic table, extra large fire pits and a grill for each site. About 15 mins from downtown, which has a ton to do.

Nice campgrounds. Clean bathrooms. Expect bugs, I had a Thermacell for mosquitos that worked great for them. The water hyacinths were in full bloom on the ponds driving in and along the backside of the camp.

PROs: Campground located on the river with beautiful scenic views. Covered picnic table and tall fire ring. Spacious camps. Flat pad. CONs: No clean space to get down a fish from the bank. Lots of bugs due to being near the river.

Willow Beach is small, remote, and quiet. Situated between the Arkansas River and Willow Lake, every site is waterfront. Showers and bathrooms were clean and in good condition. Sites were close but in good repair. Playgrounds were present but closed thanks to Covid. Mosquitos are very bad. Overall a really nice spot.

Our first time staying at this campground left us on the fence. We enjoyed the openness  and campsites are spacious. Nice bathroom facilities. Nice playground but it was taped off during our stay due to covid. We encountered lots of snakes. I shooed a few off the road and they disappeared as soon as they slithered into the grass, so to me it’s pretty risky walking around or letting kids play in the grass because you can’t really see snakes if they are hiding under the grass. They lock a gate every night at the entrance to the campground, however they do give you the code to the padlock.

Large sites, Not piled in on each other like RV parks. it’s a clean campground outside the city, can’t beat it for the price. Waterfront. Covered picnic benches. 50amp + water.

Small Park but has a brand new shower house

On my cross country road trip I arrived later in the afternoon, I think it was around 4pm... I asked the lady at the front if they had any sites and if rain was in the forecast. She responded with, "Your guess is as good as mine, but if it does rain, the only campsite I have will flood." It did rain. It did flood my campsite. But luckily I had my SylvanSport GO and it was high and dry all through the night. It was also very windy, mainly due to the storm.

The campground was completely full, mostly of pull behind and in bed campers. If I'm not mistaken all sites have water and electricity, and for $19 a night, it's hard to beat. There's a playground at the entrance to the camping spots which was used by the families with smaller children. The only issue I can see, is there is only one shower at the campground, and it is at the end of the campsites.
