Best Equestrian Camping near Scott, AR

30 Reviews

Limited equestrian camping options exist near Scott, Arkansas. Camp Robinson Dispersed Site permits basic camping with pets allowed, though it lacks dedicated horse corrals or special equestrian amenities. The primitive site requires campers to bring all supplies as it offers no drinking water, toilets, or hookups. Frequent vehicle traffic during night hours disrupts the camping experience. The site allows multiple access types including drive-in and hike-in, making it suitable for tent camping. The isolated location by Lake Conway provides natural surroundings but minimal facilities.

Woolly Hollow State Park offers more developed camping facilities approximately 30 miles from Scott. Though lacking designated horse corrals, the park permits pets and features multiple camping options including tent, RV, and glamping accommodations. The park maintains hiking and biking trails but does not specify if they are open to horseback riding. Campsites have water and electric hookups, with picnic tables and fire rings at each site. The asphalted sites provide level grounds suitable for camping near the water. Facilities include clean bathhouses, a swimming area, fishing opportunities, and boat rentals, though equestrians seeking dedicated horse facilities may need to look beyond the immediate Scott area.

    Woolly Hollow State Park — Wooly Hollow State Park

    SITE #3 All the great outdoor opportunities, small enough to avoid crowds

    I tent camped at Site #3, right beside the lake. Put my hammock up and watched the sun set and the fireflies start dancing. A few ducks played on the edge of the water and walked on shore for a bit. There is a marked Artesian Spring right at the turn to this loop before Site #1.  

    This park has so much going for it. It is clean, small, handicap accessible....great hiking with short and long options, a pour-off waterfall during the wet season when the lake is high, biking options. You can rent paddle boats and kayaks for the small but beautiful lake that is known for fishing. The visitor's center has nice restrooms, local author's books and art, and is well-stocked in emergency  supplies, treats, a water fountain, and friendly staff. I live close by and opt for this park when I need to get away from the hustle and bustle for a while. This park is small enough to avoid the typical state park crowds and still enjoy all the outdoor sights, sounds and activites you are looking for.

    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!

    Bring your kayak and enjoy

    The tent site that we had was great. (Site 37) It was right by the water with tons of room and a nice, level ground. Some hammock trees were nearby as well.There was a shared water spigot near the site.

    You park in a small lot behind the tent sites and carry your things a short distance.

    The bathrooms were clean, but they were quite a distance from the tents. This was my one and only complaint about this SP.

    In the warmer months, starting in May, they rent out kayaks, paddle boats, and canoes. There is also a small concession stand you can order from.

    My husband caught one fish while we were there from our camp site. It’s very handy being that close to the water.

    There is a great hiking trail around the lake. About 3.5 miles if you combine the cabin trail with the Huckleberry trail. It was an enjoyable hike. There were people of all ages enjoying it.

    We would definitely camp in this spot again!

    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.

    Small but awesome

    We live close by and go usually once a week.  Camping and hiking in fall and spring.  Swimming, canoeing, fishing, or just hanging out in the summer.  Sites fill up fast. New visitor center is nice.  Park has a fishing tournament for the kids.

    Woolly Hollow State Park — Wooly Hollow State Park

    Friendly and accessible family campground

    The best features of this State Park are: 1) it is close to Conway and an easy drive from Little Rock; 2) there is a separate loop for tent camping and it's closer to the water than the hookups loop; and 3) it has a nice swim beach open in season. I believe the State Park puts on some interesting programs, too, so watch their calendar. The hiking loops around the lake and grounds are just fine but cannot offer the majestic scenery of some of the more mountainous regions of the state. If you camp in the RV loop you will likely meet some nice folks and enjoy nature among other RVers. The park is well taken care of, but again, it's not winning awards for the most striking setting our state has to offer. Nonetheless, Woolly Hollow makes a good getaway for families that want to spend time outdoors, ride their bikes around or take a swim, look up at the stars, and not venture too far from home.

    Nice area but tent sites are not good

    Lake is nice. Didn’t catch many fish though. Swim area is very well kept. Adorable pedal boats. Tent camping sites are right at the entrance on the road. You have to park in the parking lot and carry all your stuff to the camp ground. Definitely don’t recommend using a tent site at all. The entire park is very well kept and very clean. Park staff were very nice and helpful. Mountain biking trail is in good condition. North loop was even good for my 8 year old while I did trail running. Cute little state park.

    Great experience!

    There is trails to hike, paddle boats, canoes and a great swimming hole. Especially love the fact that they don't let dogs on the beach where they can poop all over the place where you sit and walk I was very grateful for that because I've seen it in other places and it's disgusting. It's a great campsite ,a playground for kids to play, a great snack bar , a visitor's area , showers, bathrooms everything that you would need. We had a wonderful time! The streams that run off from the mountains into the lake are lovely and peaceful. Park is not far from local hotel in area and great places to eat.
