    Crowley's Ridge State Park Campground

    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.

    Crowley's Ridge State Park Campground

    Nice park with surprising level sites

    With the word RIDGE in it's name you pretty much know what to expect. These folks made it work. All sites are pretty level. if not level. Water & electric at all sites with picnic table, fire rine and stand up BBQ grill. Nice tree lined road, albeit very tight with on comming trafic, as are their interior roads. ATT & Verizon cell services were both useable just not the strongest..

    Got here Sunday afternoon there wereo only3 others. With my disability pass the one night was only $12.79, tax & all.

    This was a great nightover for us and would stay here again, but not as destination park.

    Lake Poinsett State Park Campground

    Nice sites, quiet park

    Another great Arkansas State Park! The campground is small, but the sites are nice. Arkansas has some of the best bathhouses as well! There is a really nice playground and also a walking trail that you can access from the campground.

    The lake has finally been repaired and they have begun the refill process after is has been dry for several years.

    The town of Harrisburg is close by in case you need to make a store run or grab some food. There is a small store here at the park, but it was closed while we were here, so I’m not sure how much stuff they have to offer.

    Lake Frierson State Park Campground

    Peaceful

    Lake Frierson State Park is a nice stop off on the way to Jonesboro Arkansas.

    Nice trails, water recreation and quiet. The campground is small. 7 sites near one of the boat ramps. Your on the road next to the public access so not much privacy at all! There is also a primitive camping area. I guess one plus is it’s not very crowded and if you have enough relatives you can book the whole site for yourself.

    another Arkansas gem

    Wonderful place to visit! We really enjoyed the hiking opportunities this park offers :) The sites were nice, somewhat wooded area. They were not super secluded, but we had enough privacy. The facilities were very clean and near to the sites. So impressed with how Arkansas State Parks are maintained- we were pleased!


Guide to Walcott

Cabin accommodations near Walcott, Arkansas provide varied overnight lodging options in a region known for its distinct topography along Crowley's Ridge. This geological feature rises 200 feet above the surrounding Mississippi River Delta plains, creating unique forest ecosystems not typically found in eastern Arkansas. Cabin rentals in this area typically operate year-round with advanced booking required during peak spring and fall seasons.

What to do

Hiking trails access: Lake Poinsett State Park cabins connect to a 1.3-mile trail system accessible directly from the campground area. "We stayed over Memorial Day weekend. Every site was booked but not crowded. Had a wonderful time fishing and hiking the 1.3 mile trail," notes Sean D. at Lake Poinsett State Park Campground.

Paddleboating and kayaking: Rental watercraft available seasonally at Crowley's Ridge lake areas for $6-$10 hourly rates. "Kids had a blast here! We did paddle boating and walked the trails!" reports Donna M. about her experience at Crowley's Ridge State Park Campground.

Fishing opportunities: Lake Frierson cabins provide direct lake access for anglers. "This is a great fishing hole with a small campground! The sites are nice and have great views of the lake," writes Shana D. about Lake Frierson State Park Campground.

What campers like

Clean facilities: State park cabins maintain regularly serviced bathhouses and comfort stations. "Arkansas has some of the best bathhouses as well! There is a really nice playground and also a walking trail that you can access from the campground," notes Shana D. regarding Lake Poinsett State Park.

Natural water features: Several cabin sites provide access to spring-fed water features. "Spring fed waterfall/wishingwell crystal clear and COLD!!! Fishing w great Very peaceful!" shares Sammy B. about Spring River Oaks cabins.

Off-season tranquility: Winter cabin rentals offer quieter experiences with fewer visitors. "I'm not sure why this was our first visit here, but it definitely won't be our last! We love winter camping as we enjoy the parks when they are more quiet. I bet this place is very popular in the summer," reports Shana D. about Crowley's Ridge State Park.

What you should know

Limited sewer connections: Most cabin areas have no sewer hookups, requiring use of central dump stations. "For those of you with RV's beware that there is no sewer dump station here. You have to drive to Crowleys Ridge State Park to use their dump station (10 minute drive)," warns Shana D. about Lake Frierson facilities.

Shower availability varies: Not all cabin areas provide shower facilities. "The drawback for me is that this campground only has vault toilets and no showers," notes Shana D. regarding Lake Frierson.

Seasonal lake drawdowns: Some park lakes undergo periodic maintenance draining. "The lake has finally been repaired and they have begun the refill process after is has been dry for several years," explains Shana D. about Lake Poinsett State Park cabin area.

Tips for camping with families

Playground access: Several cabin areas feature designated play structures for children. "In the picnic area the children have a playground," notes William C. at Lake Poinsett State Park.

Water recreation options: Swimming areas operate seasonally May-September at select cabin locations. "The lake area is beautiful with a small spring fed waterfall, a swim beach area and even a slide into the water," describes Shana D. about Crowley's Ridge State Park.

Open field play areas: Cabins near common areas provide space for group activities. "The ability to walk trails, play on the playground or run around an open field makes this a place for families," shares Britt about Lake Poinsett State Park.

Tips from RVers

Site leveling conditions: Most cabin parking pads require minimal adjustment. "Site#4 totally level. Site#4 some shade 100% gravel site," reports Napunani regarding Lake Poinsett sites.

Road access considerations: Access roads to some cabin areas have limited width. "Single lane campground road extremely tight. If campsites across from ours wasn't empty, it would of been extremely difficult to get our 28ft backed-in," cautions Napunani about Lake Poinsett access.

Insect preparation: Wooded cabin sites require appropriate pest management. "Super bad, so bring your mosquito spray," advises Jeff E. regarding evening conditions at Crowley's Ridge cabins.
