"One of the great things for us was the proximity of some Arkansas State Parks such as Cane Creek and Arkansas Post. First we were in E campground and it was not very well taken care of."
"It's a pretty spot by a lake. Clean restrooms with showers."

"We stayed in Site# 2 💦🔌💩

"As others have said here, the park is right off the freeway, within walking distance of several restaurants, a grocery store, and Walmart. I did hear some traffic but it was huge noise to me."
"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."
"We were able to watch numerous birds (pileated woodpeckers) and even saw a swamp rat swimming in the lake (resembles a beaver with a skinny tail)."
TravelerI 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!
GuideNo amenities. Like showers and toilets. No pool, no picnic tables, no fire pit. Gravel spots. They do have water, electric and sewer. Clean Campground.
RangerWe visited Cane Creek over Memorial Day weekend. The sites were level. We did have several fire ant hills that we had to deal with and quite a few red wasps. We were able to watch numerous birds (pileated woodpeckers) and even saw a swamp rat swimming in the lake (resembles a beaver with a skinny tail). You have to walk through thick brush on a slope to reach the water. My husband mostly chose to walk down to the fishing pier and docks. It was about a two minute walk away from our site. We stayed in site 17 I believe.
There are water and electricity hookups with a bathroom close by. We rode bikes so it didn’t take long to get the the restroom. Our neighbors had issues with their electricity because they were trying to run an air fryer, and it kept throwing the breaker. We ran our box fan without any issues.
You can rent kayaks for very reasonable. Do it! The water trail is unlike any I have seen. Don’t miss out on the hiking trails, but watch out for ticks!
You can rent an RV here as well. It’s set up at the entrance of the campground. It seemed like a nice setup. We rode past it several times on our explorations of the park.

👍🏻This RV Park was conveniently located off I40, easy to get into, very clean, super friendly owners, we felt safe, very laid back atmosphere with minimal paperwork(no signing your life a way😉), and a perfect stop to spend the night on your journey.
👎🏻There are no amenities, no bathhouse, no laundry, sites are a little tight, no picnic table, fire ring, or grill. While this RV Park is lacking all the“extras” it is perfect for stopping through to spend the night or even as a place to stay while in town for work. There were several restaurants, gas stations and some grocery stores, including a Walmart, nearby. Going into this park with the appropriate expectations(just a quick stop to sleep) is key.
ScoutAs others have said here, the park is right off the freeway, within walking distance of several restaurants, a grocery store, and Walmart. I did hear some traffic but it was huge noise to me. I even overslept a bit. Google maps won’t get you all the way to the site. Thanks to Gary’s handy map I didn’t have a problem finding it. The only reason I didn’t give 5 stars is because there is no shower or bathroom facility.
RangerLovely small campground. Well maintained. They meet you at the gate and show you to site then come to camper to collect your stay after your set up. Gentlemen was extremely kind and friendly. Perfect host and we felt that personal touch as they welcomed us and thanked us for staying with them. Spaces were perfectly spaced. No issues with amenities. They had Wi-Fi if we wanted it but we have it on board. No cable. Easy in and easy out. There’s a restaurant at the entrance that’s an easy walk. Highly recommend.
TravelerRight off I-40. Easy access and friendly management. Close to food, gas and shopping. Highway noise was not a problem. Pull through sites with plenty of room. We have been here two times. Call when you arrive and they will give you instructions
RangerVery nice, newer bathhouse facilities. Friendly staff, family friendly place. Cane Creek Lake has great fishing. Clean park. Bring your own firewood.
ScoutThey were very flexible with the time that I had to check in, I told them that I would be arriving early in the morning, 1 AM. Everything was set up though, they even had a small orange cone marked “Reserved” for me. I actually didn’t get to the campground until 4:30 AM. No issues at all, the gentleman was very accommodating and extremely nice.  They still had to charge me the full price but that is totally understandable.
