Fishing and wildlife watching draw campers to Dagmar Wildlife Management Area Campsites, where the surrounding wetlands and swampy water features give anglers and wildlife observers plenty to work with. One reviewer parked next to a gator pond and reported large splashes from the water, though no gators surfaced. No services are available on site, so this is raw, self-contained camping in a working wildlife management area.
Getting in requires a couple of miles on gravel, but multiple reviewers confirm the road is well-maintained and navigable even after dark. Campers with rigs up to 23 feet have reported easy access and level sites. Sites are clearly marked with blue stripes on trees and signage, and they are spaced far enough apart that solo campers often have a section to themselves. Some highway noise carries into camp, and standing water after wet weather brings mosquitoes, so bug spray is worth packing. Verizon users report picking up some signal. Those planning trips through the Arkansas Delta can also look at camping spots outside Holly Grove or nearby options like Dub'l R RV Park to the east for a camp with hookups.
Travis B. sums it up well: "lots of spots spaced far apart." Campers who want a low-traffic overnight stop in the Arkansas Delta with direct access to wetland habitat will find this WMA worth pulling off the route for.
Description
There are 14 primitive campsites on the area maintained by area personnel.
