Kellys Crossing Campground

This is more of a boat ramp than a campground. There are a couple of picnic tables with an few areas to set up tents. The positive is that you won’t be fighting a lot of other campers to be able to stay here. The access to the lake is nice. Would be a good spot to go if you needed to get away for some solitude.

This is an off the beaten path area for standard recreation. It’s technically a boat ramp that accesses Arkabutla Lake with picnic and camping areas nearby. The bulletin board has primitive camping rules and guidelines to follow. The fee has been reduced to free, so enjoy but be respectful! I am visiting at the end of December, so there are hardly any other persons around besides the fishermen out on the water. Private property is close by and you have to travel past them to get to the public day use area so also be aware of that.
