    4th of July Trip

    Really enjoyed this trip on 4th of July weekend!! Stayed at site 43 which is close to the swim beach and the bathrooms are very close. They have a really nice visitor center too. Just make sure to have bug spray. Mosquitoes get bad at night and ticks were pretty active. Overall, it’s a great State Park!!!!

    Spring River Oaks

    Bad experience

    Was extremely dissatisfied with the whole experience.   Bad service with staff and dirty accommodations.  Noisey at night.  Never going back.  Also overpriced.

    Great little campground near Paragould

    This campground was perfect for our little family reunion near Paragould. We booked three sites together and they were close enough that it was easy to visit each other. It was also a very nice little campground with lots of shade and the bathrooms were very clean and had showers. We also enjoyed the little lake and playground for the kids. The only downside were the mosquitoes, but one of us had a screened canopy that went over the picnic table, which worked great. We were very impressed with the staff and the campground and will likely return.

    Peaceful Quaint Relaxing

    This is an older private campground that is very well maintained right on the river. Peaceful tranquil setting with owners/operators on site that are very friendly. Bath houses are private and immaculate. RV sites are full hook up 50 amp. RV sites are spacious and nightly rate is a great value. Highly recommend

    Delta Ridge RV Park

    Perfect for overnight

    My wife and I stayed 2 nights while we rested as we travel across the country. The park is right off of I-40. You may find you question your GPS as the entrance is through what seems like a strip mall, it it is there. We made reservations ahead of time and I would recommend this as the campground quickly fills up in the late afternoon. We did need to call a number posted in the campito determine our site, but the experience was quick and professional. Each site is a full hookup on a gravel pad with easy leveling. The campground itself is clean and well maintained. The campground caters to those looking for a single overnight stay so there are no amenities.

    Great place for spur of the moment stop

    We had reservations for another place further down the road but decided to leave a day early and see if we could find something on the road. This place fit the bill! It’s convenient to the highway and while we have our food, there are places to eat close by. The owner was polite and met us at the gate and showed us to our site. There are few big trees and it’s more suitable for RV camping than tent camping but this was exactly what we needed this trip. Thanks so much!

    Beautiful Park - Friendly Staff

     I called ahead and arrived after hours. It was as easy as it gets. They said to just pick an open site and register in the am. I had a lake front site, with a nice fire pit and picnic table and grill setup. 

     The next morning I registered / paid $44.00 for the night. Super friendly staff. I would stay here again in a heartbeat.

    Huge park

    Lots of spaces, tons of trails, nice and flexible staff and very affordable. I was clear I had to have connectivity to stay and they let me come out and pick my spot before staying and gave me my.best options.

    I'm up in the horse campground which is fine and. The only camper here. The bathroom is warm, water hot and all clean so frankly, with 33 miles of trails, we are staying and working for the week. I had to reply my starlink to get online and it took a few tries to find a workable direction but I did and plugged in to the bathroom which they said was fine. Spent Sunday exploring this huge place.

    Nice place to stay

    Beautiful relaxing place. I’m a fan of dispersed camping yet this was still private even for a campground. Nice bathhouses with laundry. Individual campsite trash cans. They provided free wood! Nice flat paved sites with water and electric for only $25

    Nice quiet place and friendly

    Beautiful place to camp. Everyone running the park was super nice and accommodating. The only drawback that I can think of was the mosquitos. Shower house/bathroom cleaned and well maintained.

    Craighead Forest Park

    Very Nice

    It's a small camping area but very nice! There's a lake that allows canoeing, walking trail with exercise equipment. huge playground, huge parking areas with pavilions, bathrooms with hot water, water fountains throughput. They have a movie theater type to teach you about the land & heritage with mist that sprays on you to give live effects. $25.per night whether RV, Pull along, or tent camping. Bath house with toilets, showers, hot water. All camping spots have water, electric, sewage, and personal trash cans. Cons- were one area to camp The tenants were very stand off-ish and a bit rude. The folks caring for the property were nice at first then became judgemental, had the law constantly come through plus the park rangers/co-workers would sit and watch our every move, and be very nosey. I felt safe but also felt luke I was walking on eggshells the whole time. Tent camping here is not recommended but acceptable. We were visiting from out of state to get away from a hurricane in our home state and our visit was quite disappointing to say the least as far as what I've mentioned but enjoyed the park.

    Red River Trout Dock

    Great getaway!!

    We stayed here 3 nights over the Labor Day weekend. The sites close to the road are really easy to get into. Just be prepared to do a some leveling but that’s part of camping right? The sites that are closer to the river are kind of close together and some of the sites look to have campers that are permanently there. The fishing was great at the dock and the owners are some of the nicest people you will ever meet. We plan on going back in October because my son wants to have his birthday there. Definitely would recommend Red River Trout Dock to anyone.

    What a Gem!!

    We LOVED our stay here. Playgrounds and a splash pad our kids loved. Norm, the site host, was SO helpful. We were having battery issues and he helped us diagnose and fix it.

    Quiet for the 4th of July Week

    Spent the week starting July 4th here . A work /vacay trip . Enjoyed the cool breeze off the Little Red River . Caught a few trout for our must have trout tacos that makes every trip to a trout stream complete . Standard campsites for the area . Bathrooms and Shower were mostly clean . We stayed near the entrance across from the Hatchery and it’s much quieter here than in the back of the campground . Fairly large campsites .

    Jacksonport State Park Campground

    Very nice, small campground

    This a very small campsite, only 20 sites I believe, but he sites are quite large and level. About half the sites back up to the White River. 

    The campsite is somewhat off the beaten path, and there isn't necessarily a ton to do in the area, but if you're looking for quiet, and low-key stop, this is the place. 

    The grounds are very well maintained, about half the sites back up to the White River, and there is a very nice beach/swimming area as well as a boat launch. Added bonus, the bathrooms were incredibly clean!

    The visitor's center is a must see. Lots of great exhibits detailing the history of the area.

    Newport is about 15 minutes away and provides a variety of shopping and dining options. If you find yourself over that way I highly recommend stopping at Blue Bridge Brews and Bakery (tons of great coffee and pastry options).

    Crowley's Ridge State Park Campground

    We Love Crowleys Ridge

    Everything about this park is amazing. They recently redid the swimming area and cleaned and refilled with better water. They have paddle boats you can rent from Memorial Day through Labor Day. We have stayed many trips in this park. Site 1 is our favorite. Features pull through with a large area including tent pad and nice gathering area. We glamp camp and we’re able to set up a 16x20 tent, but the tent did go over the size of the pad. All sites have water and electricity, except for a few primitive sites. There is a nice campground and walking area. Also a great hiking trail which isn’t too hard. The park is close to Paragould with a Walmart and a dollar general is a couple miles away. The only site I wouldn’t recommend is site 9. It has a very steep hill and would only be good for very small campers or tent camping.
