Hot Springs National Park KOA
Really nice cabin w/ lots of amenities. koa was flexible in letting us rent the cabin for our daughter and grandkids while we slept in the Rv out front.
Samantha L.ScoutOuachita Campground at Edendell
Sites are closer together than what appears online—overall clean and well maintained. A hike to the bathhouse but there is one!

TravelerForest Service RD 153 Ouachita National Forest
Beautiful, secluded spot. The vantage point faces the wrong way for the sunset, but if you enjoy watching the sunrise, this is the spot to do it. Sat in my chair and enjoyed my coffee and the show. Not much level ground, but plenty of rocks to level your vehicle if you're sleeping in or on it. Probably room for 3 rigs comfortably. A little bit of traffic on the dirt road, so expect a little dust as this site is right off the road. I think we saw about 4 vehicles, some slowed to reduce dust, some didn't. Some reviews said the road in was impassable, but I didn't even have to use 4wd, so they must have fixed it.

N8ce park but it almost looks forgotten. When we drove through there were no campers and it looked like some of the sites needed a little TLC.

Charlton Campground
This review is strictly for camping. Needed a spot for the night on a road trip. Chose a spot based on limited user photos, as Recreation.gov lists none. Note that the $15 rate jumps to $23 after an $8 reservation fee. Despite previous reviews reporting zero cell coverage, T-Mobile worked fine. We initially chose C15 over the largely vacant Loop A for perceived privacy and proximity to facilities, but it didn't match expectations upon arrival. Phone support stated they cannot modify or cancel reservations for this facility. To switch, we had to create a second Recreation.gov account (the system blocks booking two sites) and pay another $23. The camp host never came by, but we didn't want to risk setting up without an active reservation. If multiple sites are open, scout them in person before paying online. The grounds themselves are pleasant, and the proximity to Hot Springs is a major plus. However, the day-use facility (the only practical option for Loop A) was poorly maintained, leaving only one functional toilet in the women’s restroom.

Nice sites but not maintained
Easy to get to off the main road. Spots are spread out with tables, grills and fire rings. The bathroom is disgusting with broken doors, didn't even look inside all the way. Water level currently too low to use the boat launch. Other than someone who arrived after dark and slept in their car on the boat ramp, we were the only ones there. Burn ban in effect while we were there. A park ranger did drive bys at 5:15am and again at 10:30am. Good for an overnight spot, very quiet and pretty. One bar with T-Mobile. Bonus persimmon trees along the shore!
Nicholas T.TravelerGoose Pond Road Camp
Nice little campground, cute pond. We where the only ones there so nice and quiet. Secure with a coded gate. Saw lots of deer only 30min from Hotsprings. Far enough out to be secluded, but its close enough to residential and a golf course that you dont feel like its middle of nowhere.

Guide to Caddo Gap
RV parks near Caddo Gap, Arkansas offer camping accommodations within the Ouachita Mountains at elevations averaging 600-1,000 feet. The region's humid subtropical climate features hot summers with temperatures regularly exceeding 90°F and mild winters. Annual rainfall reaches approximately 50 inches, creating lush surroundings for campers with dense forest cover throughout the camping areas.
What to do
Crystal mining opportunities: 20 miles from Caddo Gap. Crystal Ridge RV Park at Ron Coleman Mine provides direct access to crystal digging. "For $20 you can go spend the day diggin through dirt and finding crystals. I don't think everyone has the luck we had but we came after a rain and cleaned up. Hundred bucks in gems," notes one visitor who even found crystals in their campsite around the fire pit.
Lake activities: 15-minute drive from main camping areas. Treasure Isle R.V. Park sits directly on Lake Hamilton with waterfront sites. "If you get a lakeside spot, they look lovely," shares one camper, though interior spots are described as having "little wiggle room" with gravel surfaces. The park offers convenient water access for fishing and boating.
Diamond hunting excursions: Day trip option. Murfeesboro RV Park serves as a base camp for Crater of Diamonds State Park visitors. "This place has been great, we stayed for two nights and got to rent out equipment for free to go diamond mining," reports one camper. The park sits just "2 miles max from crater of diamonds state park," making it more spacious than camping at the crowded state park itself.
What campers like
Clean, modern facilities: Leisure Landing RV Park maintains exceptionally well-kept bathrooms that impress visitors. "The bathhouse reminded me of a dayspa!" exclaims one camper.

Another explains the setup: "Theres a little boat dock and good sized dog park too." J and J RV Park doesn't have a formal dog park but offers "plenty of space to walk your fur children."
What you should know
