Arkansas City Trailhead — Delta Heritage Trail State Park
Campground in town
This is convenient to the levee and right in the middle of town. Clean restrooms with flush toilets. There are no assigned sites but just a grassy area adjacent to the parking area.

Wonderful state park
Bathrooms are hands down the best I’ve ever seen. Campsites aren’t on top of each other but are pretty close. My tent wouldn’t fit on the tent pad but was able to find a level spot to set up anyways. The lake was pretty busy with people fishing or paddling. Two room cabins looked pretty great and are on the water. Had two playgrounds and kids trail. Went to go to kayak out to Castle Tree and found out the water was too high to really see the base of it and it’s a two hr paddle upstream on the way there. So plan on calling ahead if you’re going to do that since the water can also be too low.

Beautiful But Without a Comfortable Bathroom
My family uses a pop up camper to explore many of the Arkansas parks, after this trip we are considering a change!
Let me tell you about their bathroom/showers situation…. Do they have flushing toilets, yes! Sadly only slightly better than a hole in the ground with a seat. They thankfully have provided toilet paper, that’s a step up from tree bark, but no place to put any sanitary items…. Was there a place at one time to dispose such things? YES! Is there one any more? NO! Just a slot with a lid where the metal box once was. Granted I am at a camp that for the majority of the time only houses manly hunters, keeping that in mind I assume they do still sometimes bring their wives/girlfriends who would appreciate maybe having another small box installed for these womanly things. Moving on I don’t consider myself vain in anyway but the mirror situation is comparable to trying to see your reflection in crinkled aluminum foil, at best! While staring into what may or may not be my reflection, I start to question where is the hand soap? Absolutely nowhere, there is none. I feel they expect us to grab a pine cone and pray we don’t get pink eye because that is all your working with, pinecones and prayers! While releasing a irritated sigh I noticed I could see my breath! It’s currently 30 degrees outside and guess what these bathrooms do not have a heater!! Now to the showers, I’m only able to compare it to a prison scene from a movie… Longest yard…? The Rock…? Maybe…I’m not sure but it falls somewhere between comical and terrifying. Curtains you ask? No we don’t need those! Being able to adjust water temperatures? No! Luke warm Is what you have Luke warm is what you are happy with(said in best Russian accent) Somewhere to place your shampoo, conditioner, body wash, lufa and razor? Unheard of! You are in the wild girl…. You should have held on to that pinecone! A large button on the wall you have to push every(no exageration) ten seconds to keep the spit temperature trickle of water running?? Yes ma’am! The over head lights on a timer that goes off five minutes into your lovely prison shower experience reminding you to not drop the soap or close your eyes? WE GOT YOU BOO! Need less to say my time here, although brief, feels like purgatory, making me want to lay down in front of the passing Corps of Engineers truck as a martyr for bathroom improvements! (**US Army Corps of Engineers please reference ANY State ran park bathroom for your example!)

Cane Creek State park
Nice Weekend Getaway
My family and I had a nice little getaway to Cane Creek State park. The sites are all asphalted and have electric and water. The dump station is on the way out of the park. The boat dock is really nice and the bait shop has minnows, worms, and crickets. Also, the bathrooms are located in the middle of the park and are clean. There are also a few concreted walking trails. The only bad part of the weekend was the bugs were really bad after dark so we had to go inside early. I would recommend this place to anyone and we will be back.

Chemin-A-Haut State Park
Shady and Peaceful area
Quiet shady campsite. Not very full at all so it was peaceful. Showers and bathrooms were clean. Decent WIFI. Booster is close to site 14 and 15. If you like to be level in every direction, there are only about half of the sites that are easy to get that way. 4,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,14. All the rest slope a great deal. The ones on the inner loop slope from back to front. The ones on the outer loop slope front to back pretty dramatically. Inner loop sites are short. There were many campers unlevel it looked to me and jacks all the way out. I had the right side on 3 blocks to get it up to level.
If it rains its muddy in the site. They look to be clearing some trees as the area close to #12 where we camped had some leaning dead trees that were a bit concerning. Especially considering we had severe storms one night. Tree hit the bathroom building and also fell across the access road.
2nd picture hope you can tell how downhill the outside sites are after 14.

Fall one night stop
Very nice out of the way quiet State Park. Lots of space and not very full in late September. Bathroom and showers were great. Clean, good water pressure and plenty of hot water. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Verizon signal weak. Noseeums and other mosquitoes a little bad but could be worse.

Leroy Percy State Park
Small state park makes a great stopover
Leroy Percy State Park is a small, but pretty state park with 16 full hookup campsites, 4 cabins and a nice disc golf course. Most of the campsites are shaded, at least for part of the day. Other than one other camper who appeared to have been there awhile, we were the only occupied campsite. Mosquitoes caused us to eat dinner inside our trailer, although it was otherwise nice enough to eat outside. The bathrooms were old, but mostly clean. The only exception being the handicapped men's shower which was a mess.

Nice campsites, amazing staff, kids love it! Only downfall is during the fall/summer/spring when the mosquitoes take over the campsite.

Blue Lake
Really nice, small campground
Small picnic area & campground along a small, pretty lake. Three campsites - 79A, 79B & 79C. Campsite fee is $7. Camped in April at 79A in a camper van, which is close to the lake. There is no pay station, and the forest office in Rolling Fork is closed; so, you have to make a reservation online at recreation.gov to pay. Online reservation fee is $8. This recreation area has a typical national forest vault toilet (not chem toilet). There is no drinking water. There are trash receptacles next to the vault toilet. There is also a gravel boat ramp. The nature trail was flooded when we visited. Insects were not too bad; we used a Thermocell insect repellent device which seemed to work. Saw an alligator lounging around in the lake. Beautiful nature sounds. No AT&T nor T-Mobile cell service. This is a low elevation, swampy wetland which does get flooded. Two wheel drive passenger cars should make it okay when the road is mostly dry. Drinking water at the forest work center was shut off.

Nice RV spots with full hookups. Cellular service isn’t great but they do have Wi-Fi. The RV camping area has a nice, new, and clean restroom and shower facility with coin-operated laundry.

Wow on the river
Super quiet overnight spot for us. Amazing sunrise and bird activity. Might be light on leg stretching activities for some (no hikes). TMobile good coverage

Chemin-A-Haut State Park
Nice Park
Our Site #6 was large and it was a good value for full hookups, but the town of Bastrop was nothing to write home about. Winter is probably not the best time to visit — rather spooky with no leaves on the trees and most sites vacant.

Delta National Forest - Barge Lake Campground
Ultimate Mississippi Bayou
Dates: Year round
Fee: $7.00 per night $3.00 day use
Accessible: No
YOU MUST HAVE RESERVATIONS AND PAID
Reservations only 877-444-6777 or recreation.gov Park passes accepted Multiply sites with picnic table, fire ring, lantern pole, potable water is available from the Delta Work F.C. Off of Highway 16 out of Rolling Fork, MS, we turned onto Fire Tower Road, you can take this road at two different places. We went to the second turn for a shorter trip and the gravel road in is not as pot holed the the first turn. Once you pass thru the open gate travel on and you will turn when the road turns just follow the GPS coordinates to the sites. If you love primitive campsites you will love this. We are very partial to primitive sites that are amazing. There is an opening onto a bayou with a small boat launch. Beautiful cypress trees. I would guess that during the season you can make a meal out of the mosquitoes or I would guess they will make a meal of you. This site is so beautiful, I can't wait to go back. The small bayou is great for putting in your kayak. There are beautiful cypress trees on land and in the bayou along with many cypress knobs. Sites that are great for shade and a spot for solar. Make sure to bring in your supplies because you will not want to leave. During the season I am sure there will be more than enough mosquitoes to feast on or there will be plenty to feast on you. Gotta take the sad with the good.
REMEMBER YOU MUST HAVE RESERVATIONS.
Pack it in, Pack it out.

Lake Chicot State Park
Beautiful lakeside sites. Friendly staff.
This is a beautiful campground on Lake Chicot in Arkansas. The lakeside sites on so nice. You can watch the sun sets on the lake. There are cypress trees at the lake's edge all around the lake. The nearby town is small, but does have groceries and a few good restaurants.
Staff in the office are very helpful and pleasant. We have stayed here twice now and there are generally sites available to choose from. There are some maintenance issues but they are working on upgrades in the campground.

Very nice little park off the beaten path
Staff is wonderful! Sites are large to accommodate any size rig & truck. Smaller campground with many nearby trails thru the forest. Very peaceful quiet place. Hot showers, bait shop, rentals & a little campstore as well.

Warfield Point Park
Nice quiet place to stay
This park is a hidden gem right on the Mississippi River. Tons of rv spots and tent camping areas. There wasn't a lot of campers here so we were able to pick a spot away from others. Be aware their site says 52 full service sites, that's a lie! They only have 5 sites that are FULL hookups. All other sites have electricity and city water ONLY! Also, payment is CASH ONLY.

Picnic table, fire ring, lantern pole. This is dispersed camping but only in the numbered campsites. Potable water is available from the Delta Work Force Center. This is off Highway 16 out of Rolling Fork, MS. We turned on the second exit for Fire Tower Road because it is shorter to the campsite and the dirt road is in better shape. Look for the turn and follow it all the way to the dead end. There is a beautiful, peace cypress water area with cypress stumps and wonderful trees. The area was bush hogged so grass was very low. If you love to boondock this is the spot. No sun so solar will not work. If you need power bring your generator and I would bring all the supplies needed so you don't have to drive out.

Warfield Point Park would be an extremely nice campground and recreation area if it was maintained. The campground is located on 80 acres of mature growth trees of pecan and cottonwoods and sits between the levy and the Mississippi River. You will have to cross over the levy to reach the camp. There is a gate house that was not manned when we arrived. The pecan trees in the park provided the camper some nice pecans. What a feast. Disc golf, some pull through, fire ring, picnic table, toilets, showers. There was a sense of abuse and disuse in the park and we did not stay. Several of the sites had drink cans in and around the fire ring. We did not check out the bathrooms since the air of the park did not feel right. The site needed to be mowed but the river looked great.

Eh, probably better in summer
Only 1 loop open now (October). Not very attractive sites. Trees are nice but pads are narrow and a bit chewed up. Full hook-up though.

Merrisach Lake
Starting to get a little run down but a nice park for r to he most part
This was one of the last parks available on the Memorial Day weekend. One of the great things for us was the proximity of some Arkansas State Parks such as Cane Creek and Arkansas Post. First we were in E campground and it was not very well taken care of. The pads for the campers were starting to become covered up with grass and tree debris. Our picnic table has a corner busted off and the water hydrant was combined for two sites to one hydrant spot. Our 25 ft hose was too short so we borrowed a hose from the camp manager till we were able to buy another 25 footer. There was no showers in E and the restrooms were just toilets, no sinks to wash your hands. We were told by several people that we would be all but guaranteed to see an alligator but we never did. Not that they aren’t there, we just never got that lucky. The dump station is probably a mile and a half from the campground so if you have a grey water tote tank that you pull behind the truck like me, expect a fairly long drive. Overall it was an ok park but the campground E was definitely on the decline. Other campgrounds seemed to be in better shape but still sad that part of the park is in such shape. I would not put this on the top of my list but it’s not the worse either.
