"Daisy SP is a fantastic SP located in the southwest corner of Arkansas. The Camper and RV sites are level and big for any size vehicle. The walk in tent sites are some of the best in the Midwest. "
"We are parcel to sites 95 and 96 due to their close proximity to the bathroom. The bathrooms are very clean and we have observed the camp staff regularly checking and maintaining them."
$14 - $80 / night
"Arkansas has variable weather in January. Cold clear day today but higher temps predicted for later in the week. Many sites available. Beautiful views."
"This site also backs to the lake which is nice except that people would park their boats on the shore and walk through the site at which I was camped. This was a first for me."
"Located in Ouachita National Forest, this campground is easy to get to. Ideal for tent, vans, even tear drop campers. No hook ups. Some sites had really good solar potential, most were well shaded."
"It is located very central to a lot of quartz crystal mines. 3 miles down the road is collier spring where 1 can get all the drinkable fresh mountain spring water 1 wants."
$14 - $65 / night
"I took off one star because this site, while located right on the water, is very unlevel."
"If I’m being nit-picky, the only criticism I have is that the groups sites don’t have a shower adjacent."
$14 - $50 / night
"We arrived on Friday evening and found our site was even closer to the lake than expected. We were nearly surrounded by water and it made for a pretty view--especially at sunrise."
"The campground is nicely situated near the end of the LOViT cross country MTB/hiking trail. There are sites ranging from primitive to water and electric."
$15 - $40 / night
"We stayed in Loop C at the very back past the group campsite, which is tent camping only and a short walk from the bathroom."
"Despite being close to the main road, it was very quiet."
"Hidden off road to the top for scenic view. If the gate is open then explore an hour worth moderate off roading. This place also offers great hiking trails and primitive camping."
"Right next to the trails! Beautiful view of lake below. Only issue was some broken glass around the picnic area. Please pack out all of your trash!"
"hike this for some of the most beautiful scenery to offer. go about 2.3 miles in once you cross the river twice look for a small trail that leads to the ultimate camping spot. huge rock facing behind it"
"This area is superb for primitive camping along the mountain road side pulloffs. Or if you're up for more of a challenge like us, you can take on the 28-30 mile Eagle Rock Loop trail."
$12 - $40 / night
"It is located a little south of central Arkansas so it’s easily accessible to the whole state. It’s also very affordable and has great amenities."
"They are very close to the outfitter drop spot. Right on the river. Bathroom facilities are very nice and well kept. Outfitter has very nice quality boats for rent as well."
$16 - $24 / night
"Hike in electric spot that overlooked the lake. Easy to walk down and swim in the water!"
"We enjoyed our 2 nights here on the lake. The campground is literally on a mountain in the lake. Tent sites right on the lake and so are some RV spots. Warning."
GuideThis campground was very easy to find. There are signs pointing you in the right direction, and finding our spot was simple. We arrived after the office was closed, but there was an envelope that said “Welcome Smith” outside the office that included maps and a magazine for Hot Springs, as well as some tidbits of the town and things to do. I loved that touch, very educational and helpful. Our spot included full hookups, and was plenty spacious enough for our truck and teardrop. There were lots of other people with over 40ft long rigs, and it looked like they had plenty of space too. Our spot also had a picnic table. The main lounge includes bathrooms, showers, and even a tv lounge. The bathrooms and showers were VERY clean. It is obvious that someone is taking very good care of this park, down to folding the toilet paper into neat triangles. Just a short walk from our spot was a boat ramp into the lake. Beautiful scenery. We really enjoyed staying here for the night!
Traveleron first appearance it’s a cute quiet spot. no one else was there when we arrived. people before us had definitely left some trash around tho. went to bed no problems then heard a big loud pickup truck w a trailer pull up at 5am. figured it might be some local early morning fishers or something. saw them leave after an hour tho, and come to find they STOLE OUR PADLOCKED COOLER :( very not cool yall. very annoying. took our milk n eggs, took our soap, and some cheeses :/ quite annoying. also there are bathrooms but they are RANK so just pee n poop in the woods.
ScoutVery large state campground right on the lake. Clean bathrooms with showers. Would be fantastic for families.
TravelerClose to downtown and walk to the casino. Hosts go out of their way to make you feel comfortable. Spa showers, trash pickup, happy hour! This park is above and beyond all the others!
TravelerI called and got one of their specials. I paid $50 for the night and ended up staying 2 more! Great managers and the park is really nice.
GuideWe were excited to finally find a free camp area for our RV and drove into the wild for this one but when we arrived there were lots of people camping out with little space or privacy. Guess it depends on the season. But super beautiful forest and lake!!
ScoutWe’ve been to this RV park a couple of times. Both times there is NOT a working dryer in the laundry facilities. It’s frustrating when you pay for services that don’t exist but is advertised as an amenity.
Also, the sites are run down. Didn’t even bother to rake the old leaves away. We also had to run the water from another site. Our neighbors were complaining about their site not having water either.
Also, I think there should be some sort of discount for the mining if you’re paying for an RV site. It’s $25 a person for the mining of crystals. $35 if you want a mine tour and mining. .
GuideThey had some recent flooding, not all sites were available. Spot #1 was right at the waters edge. Concrete/stone picnic table, grill, firepit. The trees were perfect size and spacing for a hammock. Right next to the boat ramp. Lots of people fishing. Great for kayaking. Fairly level. No garbage/dumpster on site. Some sketchy pit toilets.
TravelerEasy access- Quiet. Would do again
