The US Army Corps of Engineers manages Old Lock and Dam 8, a campground positioned along Arkansas waterways near El Dorado. This established facility operates under federal oversight, providing basic camping infrastructure for visitors exploring the region's river systems and surrounding landscapes.
The campground sits approximately 6 miles west of Moro Bay State Park Campground, connecting campers to additional recreational opportunities in the area. For those seeking more options beyond this Corps-managed site, campgrounds just outside Jersey expand the available choices for overnight stays in this part of Arkansas.
