Best Tent Camping near Lake Village, AR

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.

Pretty state park, swimming pool during summer, gorgeous trails on an enchanting bayou, wooded back in slots with a camp host, not much to do in Bastrop but this park is a great attraction. No sewage but there is a dump station. There is also tent camping, cabins, and equestrian camping and trails but there have been budget cuts that prevent horse trail maintenance and road repairs, so you don’t know what you’ll get sometimes. The park has playgrounds and pavilions.

Ok this is the most beautiful place we’ve found in Arkansas with kayaking among the trees and flowers. They have tons of events like moonlit full moon kayak, we didn’t get to do it - next time! They have all kinds of boat rentals here including some with motors. The camp sites have trees and shade, water right next to your tent, wasn’t too much of a trek to the bathrooms and shower houses, which were clean and modern.

We stayed here one night on our way to Arkansas. $37.50 per night which was high for what you get. Sites were level enough that we didn’t unhook. Stayed here in a 29’ travel trailer. FHU.

Arkansas River scenery. Sportsman’s paradise. Everything to hunt and fish for in the Southeast. Bugs. Well maintained.

Good, clean campground. Family friendly. Great fishing. Merrisack Lake joins the ship canal to the Arkansas River. Fabled White River National Wildlife Refuge, America’s first national refuge, close by.

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.

I grew up in Star City and have been to this park many times. It is not a breathtaking place, but it accurately portrays the nature of south Arkansas. I have seen ducks, deer armadillos and eagles live here as well. The playgrounds are good. The pavilions are clean and the AC works well. Halloween brings thousands of visitors each fall. The campsites all decorate for the holiday and everyone wants to see it!
