COE Degray Lake Iron Mountain Campground

This is a great location in southeastern Arkansas. This sites are great. The scenery is beautiful. The cell service can be spotty at times and if you have Starlink that can also be spotty because of the tree cover. Be careful if you have a longer rig that the sites are not level most of them have a pretty good slope. There are a few that don’t so if you’re in a larger motorhome or a larger fifth wheel, it may be difficult to get level. But overall, this is an excellent place to stay, especially during the week in the spring time like we did. There were only a few other people. It was quiet and extremely green and beautiful.

Just stayed one night passing thru for work but enjoyed my site and scenic veiws the next morning. Tent sites have pea gravel beds for tents for level ground and plenty of trees for hammock hanging. Shower houses are adequate but recommend good shower shoes.

This campground is more rustic than the other COE campgrounds I have stayed in at Degray Lake. It has two different options one near the lake and the one in reviewing which is up on a bluff overlooking the lake. This one is higher up so harder to actually access the lake but very convenient to the Degray COE visitors center and the mountain biking trails and hiking trails. This campground is more mountainous with lake views than the other Degray COE parks. There’s a marina nearby. Campground has electric but not water hookups and clean, rustic bathhouses with hot showers.
