  Lake Catherine State Park Campground

  I love the tranquility

  I really love this place because it’s so peaceful. This is why I like places with forests and lakes. I work in cities, block blast always so noisy there…

  Lake Catherine State Park Campground

  Great State Park!!

  Very beautiful place to stay!! Our site on the lake was very beautiful and every site on the water has a small dock you can fish off. Bugs were not bad at all. Would recommend this place to anyone.

  Resort / Country Club

  This is a fantastic spot with tons of amenities (including a great pool) & many activities. Also, guests and campers were extremely nice! Clean and a well planned resort! Stay if you have a chance.

  Camp Robinson Dispersed Site

  Free camp in the trees by drained part of lake

  Thank goodness there is a slight breeze. 90 degrees. Summer swampy area. Picked up a med bag of trash; cans, bottles, and paper. Looks better now. I definitely put on bug spray right away. Nice place to sleep and get back on 40East in the morning. Doing a cross country from San Francisco to Pennsylvania.

  Camp Conway RV Park

  Wide-open layout, outside of town, quiet, full-hookups

  Camp Conway is quiet with excellent bird-watching. Must have seen 12 bird varieties thriving in the park. Convenient to Conway and even Little Rock. Camp ground is friendly to monthly guests as well as nightly.

  Camp Robinson Dispersed Site

  Great place to overnight

  The lake has been partially drained to allow work to be done on stumps. The road back to it is well maintained and we had good cell reception with AT&T and Spectrum. The sunset was beautiful. Peaceful and quiet. The birds and frogs sang all evening.

  DeGray Lake Resort State Park — De Gray State Park

  Good value campground

  Fairly cheap for a nicely established campground with really nice bathrooms (with showers)! Water spigot right at our site. Park has 3 different loops and lots of amenities.

  Nice stopping point

  12 mi off the Interstate. The office is only open until 5 PM. There are toilets next to the tent area, but the showers are over in the RV area. Nice swimming beach. A few hiking trails.

  Lake Catherine State Park Campground

  Large RV spaces

  Beautiful landscape. The trees are so tall and mature and the sites are all sitting on a serene lake. The spaces are so far apart you can enjoy your own spot without interruption. Bathhouses were super clean with showers. C loop has sewer and B loop doesn’t not much wildlife in the campground but herons and geese on the lake. The power plant across the lake was weird but also quirky. We had fun telling zombie stories about it. Three beautiful hikes right out of the campground. Camp store was well stocked and friendly. Overall fantastic stay and we would DEFINITELY be back. 100%.

  Lake Catherine State Park Campground

  Fantastic State Park

  I really enjoyed my stay here! I spent a week in an E/W hookup site. The park was clean and quiet (even when full). People were generally kind and respectful. Facilities were well cared for and it was just a generally nice atmosphere. The staff were all very kind and friendly. There are a few close hiking trails with some beautiful views and of course it’s only about a 20 or so minute drive to Hot Springs National Park. The town of Hot Springs is fairly small, but the main drag along bathhouse row has a lot of cool little shops to browse. Cell reception with Verizon was good along with reception for my T-Mobile 5g internet. It worked even better with my booster. I would definitely stay here again. My only complaint was the hot water in the showers…it lasts for about a minute and then the rest of the shower is generally somewhat (not ice) cold. I took some record showers!

  Woolly Hollow State Park — Wooly Hollow State Park

  Great weekend getaway !!

  Out of the Arkansas State Parks that we have already visited, Woolly Hollow has been the best!! It’s a very beautiful park!! The sites are all asphalted and the bathhouse is located in the center of all of the sites so access is easy. I wish we could have stayed longer but we are planning to go back once the water level of the lake gets up and can swim.

  Mount Nebo State Park Campground

  Spectacular Place

  This is a great place to visit . Trailers under 20’ only , steep road and switchbacks up the mountain . No RV’s will make it . Also home to a Monument Trail mountain biking system that’s is world class . There is a swimming pool showers and hiking for days . Only the park store is on top of the mountain . Hike in camp sites are available , group sites and 30 amp hookups with water . Some sites are a little un level . Spend some time here , you will not regret it . Most cell carriers work well up here

  Great Park!

  Such a beautiful park and amazing view from our campsites! The trails were nicely kept and the waterfall we hiked to on Lizard Trail was so picturesque! Not a big park and like how the community blended in with the park. We aren’t cyclists but it’s a great spot to bring your bikes.
  My favorite park so far in Arkansas.

  Mount Nebo State Park Campground

  On top of a mountain, great views but windy

  Steep switchbacks up to the campground.  The campground has private residences dispersed throughout.  The outlay of the park is somewhat confusing.  Be sure to study a map well.  The campground is almost immediately to the right as you get to the top, but you have to go past that quite a ways to the visitor's center to check in.  The views are amazing, but it is windy being at the top of the mountain.  There are cabins but I stayed at a campsite (#14) with a view.  The bathroom facilities near the campground are a bit of a walk from the campground.  If you have your own potty tent, you may consider bringing it.  My site was not level so I used leveling blocks.  I have my Jeep outfitted for sleeping in.  The more interior sites looked to be more level. No big rigs are allowed up the mountain, I think nothing longer than 24'.  I did not take any of the hiking trails, so I can't comment on those.  My old dog just can't do too much hiking anymore.  Staff were friendly.  The electricity worked great, but the water spigot was barely functional.  Bathroom was kept clean and had one shower with typical camp wall spigot.  The road down the mountain leads into a small, industrial type town.  Walmart, Dollar General is nearby as well as many typical restaurants.  I utilize a WeBoost, and a hotspot on my iPhone. I was able to stream shows without much buffering.  I got anywhere from 1-4 bars on ATT LTE.

  Beautiful sunrise on the lake

  Very Clean and well kept campground. We stayed in a full hookup spot near a bathroom. Quiet for how busy the campground was - only heard the geese through the night. Lots of hiking trails from the campground. Would stay again.

  DeGray Lake Resort State Park — De Gray State Park

  awesome

  Lake Degray has two (that we know of) very nice swimming areas. Grandkids has a blast. Life jackets were available as well. The park offers a lot of shade and was very well kept. We saw lots of deer and other wildlife. There are plenty of trails and just a lot to do. They have cabins which are beautiful. The bathrooms are quite nice. There is a marina and they rent party barges. Just overall a great experience and a beautiful location.

  Beautiful sunsets

  I love waterfront camping! There are some amazing sunset views here! Also, the wildlife is abundant. Great ranger led boat tour of the lake. Lots of nice level sites. Super cool yurts for rent that have the best views! Arkansas has the best State Parks!

  Lake Catherine State Park Campground

  Great site by the water

  We stayed in site 54 (w/e/s) that was right on the lake. We could walk to the dock right behind the site to fish, although did not have very good luck. I’m betting the fishing is better if you have a boat. We did not use the restrooms/bathhouse. This site is smaller but fit our 22’ trailer perfectly. We had our ebikes with us and road around a little, but the campground is not ideally set up for using them like we did at Petit Jean. We did have some pretty tall weeds that we wished would have been taken care of before we arrived, but not a deal breaker for sure. We hiked several trails that were challenging and beautiful. Close proximity to Hot Springs so spent one day there. If I had it to do over again, I would have skipped it. Casino close by for those folks so inclined. Wish we would have brought our kayaks🤨

  Great for mountain bikers

  Not great for camping. Not peaceful. Not private. Campsites are next to playground and pool. Along with a neighborhood. Imagine camping in a public park. That’s this place. Hikes are pretty and trails are designed for mountain biking. My buddy said they’re awesome. If I camped here again, I’d do it in a camper. Not a hammock. Also, bugs are horrible.

  Well Kept Secret

  I enjoyed our recent stay at Woolly Hollow. The park stays booked full and you have to be fast to grab a spot, it’s THAT great! Everything was perfect for a well needed rest. There are lots of trails, bike paths, water activities and BEAUTIFUL scenery. Very photogenic. Arkansas State Parks are always enjoyable. Staff was excellent and friendly. You won’t be sorry you stayed!

  Pleasant place for respite

  I stayed two nights at a nearby COE campground and enjoyed my stay but was ready for a change so I moved to this campground. Lots of fun things to do here. Hiking, biking, marina and water sports. There’s also a lodge with a restaurant and spa. I didn’t visit it but rode by and it’s very nice. Yurts if you don’t have a tent or RV and they have the best view of the lake in the whole park. Beautiful day use area with a playground, beach and picnic areas.

  Gorgeous views! The camp site host was a bit rude, be curious how it is in summer. Spent one night in a tent while driving from Texas to Illinois. The geese are vocal.
