Peaceful Quaint Relaxing

This is an older private campground that is very well maintained right on the river. Peaceful tranquil setting with owners/operators on site that are very friendly. Bath houses are private and immaculate. RV sites are full hook up 50 amp. RV sites are spacious and nightly rate is a great value. Highly recommend

Great getaway!!

We stayed here 3 nights over the Labor Day weekend. The sites close to the road are really easy to get into. Just be prepared to do a some leveling but that’s part of camping right? The sites that are closer to the river are kind of close together and some of the sites look to have campers that are permanently there. The fishing was great at the dock and the owners are some of the nicest people you will ever meet. We plan on going back in October because my son wants to have his birthday there. Definitely would recommend Red River Trout Dock to anyone.

Good for trout fishing

Good place to stay if you just need somewhere to park your camper and then spend your time on the Little Red River trout fishing. Dock on site. However, the campsites are basically in a field and they are very close together.

Love it here

Good campground. They have basically everything you need on site. Close grocery stores and restaurants. They sell everything you need for fishing as well. They do not have 30 amp service, only 50, so bring an adapter. Will stay here again.
