This is convenient to the levee and right in the middle of town. Clean restrooms with flush toilets. There are no assigned sites but just a grassy area adjacent to the parking area.

My family uses a pop up camper to explore many of the Arkansas parks, after this trip we are considering a change!
Let me tell you about their bathroom/showers situation…. Do they have flushing toilets, yes! Sadly only slightly better than a hole in the ground with a seat. They thankfully have provided toilet paper, that’s a step up from tree bark, but no place to put any sanitary items…. Was there a place at one time to dispose such things? YES! Is there one any more? NO! Just a slot with a lid where the metal box once was. Granted I am at a camp that for the majority of the time only houses manly hunters, keeping that in mind I assume they do still sometimes bring their wives/girlfriends who would appreciate maybe having another small box installed for these womanly things. Moving on I don’t consider myself vain in anyway but the mirror situation is comparable to trying to see your reflection in crinkled aluminum foil, at best! While staring into what may or may not be my reflection, I start to question where is the hand soap? Absolutely nowhere, there is none. I feel they expect us to grab a pine cone and pray we don’t get pink eye because that is all your working with, pinecones and prayers! While releasing a irritated sigh I noticed I could see my breath! It’s currently 30 degrees outside and guess what these bathrooms do not have a heater!! Now to the showers, I’m only able to compare it to a prison scene from a movie… Longest yard…? The Rock…? Maybe…I’m not sure but it falls somewhere between comical and terrifying. Curtains you ask? No we don’t need those! Being able to adjust water temperatures? No! Luke warm Is what you have Luke warm is what you are happy with(said in best Russian accent) Somewhere to place your shampoo, conditioner, body wash, lufa and razor? Unheard of! You are in the wild girl…. You should have held on to that pinecone! A large button on the wall you have to push every(no exageration) ten seconds to keep the spit temperature trickle of water running?? Yes ma’am! The over head lights on a timer that goes off five minutes into your lovely prison shower experience reminding you to not drop the soap or close your eyes? WE GOT YOU BOO! Need less to say my time here, although brief, feels like purgatory, making me want to lay down in front of the passing Corps of Engineers truck as a martyr for bathroom improvements! (**US Army Corps of Engineers please reference ANY State ran park bathroom for your example!)

My family and I had a nice little getaway to Cane Creek State park. The sites are all asphalted and have electric and water. The dump station is on the way out of the park. The boat dock is really nice and the bait shop has minnows, worms, and crickets. Also, the bathrooms are located in the middle of the park and are clean. There are also a few concreted walking trails. The only bad part of the weekend was the bugs were really bad after dark so we had to go inside early. I would recommend this place to anyone and we will be back.

I stayed a few days during the week. It's a pretty spot by a lake. Clean restrooms with showers.

Waterfront sites are wonderful, however the other sites are much less attractive. Clean facilities.

GuideVery nice out of the way quiet State Park. Lots of space and not very full in late September. Bathroom and showers were great. Clean, good water pressure and plenty of hot water. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Verizon signal weak. Noseeums and other mosquitoes a little bad but could be worse.

Leroy Percy State Park is a small, but pretty state park with 16 full hookup campsites, 4 cabins and a nice disc golf course. Most of the campsites are shaded, at least for part of the day. Other than one other camper who appeared to have been there awhile, we were the only occupied campsite. Mosquitoes caused us to eat dinner inside our trailer, although it was otherwise nice enough to eat outside. The bathrooms were old, but mostly clean. The only exception being the handicapped men's shower which was a mess.
ScoutNice park. Quiet and peaceful on a Sunday evening. Spots are narrow and had a little trouble getting parked but we made it. Parking close to Clean beautiful individual bathrooms. Would definitely come back.
TravelerOne of our favorite spots
TravelerNice campsites, amazing staff, kids love it! Only downfall is during the fall/summer/spring when the mosquitoes take over the campsite.
GuideSuper quiet overnight spot for us. Amazing sunrise and bird activity. Might be light on leg stretching activities for some (no hikes). TMobile good coverage
GuideThis is a beautiful campground on Lake Chicot in Arkansas. The lakeside sites on so nice. You can watch the sun sets on the lake. There are cypress trees at the lake's edge all around the lake. The nearby town is small, but does have groceries and a few good restaurants.
Staff in the office are very helpful and pleasant. We have stayed here twice now and there are generally sites available to choose from. There are some maintenance issues but they are working on upgrades in the campground.
RangerStaff is wonderful! Sites are large to accommodate any size rig & truck. Smaller campground with many nearby trails thru the forest. Very peaceful quiet place. Hot showers, bait shop, rentals & a little campstore as well.

This park is a hidden gem right on the Mississippi River. Tons of rv spots and tent camping areas. There wasn't a lot of campers here so we were able to pick a spot away from others. Be aware their site says 52 full service sites, that's a lie! They only have 5 sites that are FULL hookups. All other sites have electricity and city water ONLY! Also, payment is CASH ONLY.

Warfield Point Park would be an extremely nice campground and recreation area if it was maintained. The campground is located on 80 acres of mature growth trees of pecan and cottonwoods and sits between the levy and the Mississippi River. You will have to cross over the levy to reach the camp. There is a gate house that was not manned when we arrived. The pecan trees in the park provided the camper some nice pecans. What a feast. Disc golf, some pull through, fire ring, picnic table, toilets, showers. There was a sense of abuse and disuse in the park and we did not stay. Several of the sites had drink cans in and around the fire ring. We did not check out the bathrooms since the air of the park did not feel right. The site needed to be mowed but the river looked great.

GuideThis was one of the last parks available on the Memorial Day weekend. 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. The pads for the campers were starting to become covered up with grass and tree debris. Our picnic table has a corner busted off and the water hydrant was combined for two sites to one hydrant spot. Our 25 ft hose was too short so we borrowed a hose from the camp manager till we were able to buy another 25 footer. There was no showers in E and the restrooms were just toilets, no sinks to wash your hands. We were told by several people that we would be all but guaranteed to see an alligator but we never did. Not that they aren’t there, we just never got that lucky. The dump station is probably a mile and a half from the campground so if you have a grey water tote tank that you pull behind the truck like me, expect a fairly long drive. Overall it was an ok park but the campground E was definitely on the decline. Other campgrounds seemed to be in better shape but still sad that part of the park is in such shape. I would not put this on the top of my list but it’s not the worse either.
ScoutThis was our first outing in the RV and we had a blast! Nice, quiet isolated state park in the delta of Mississippi. We brought our kayaks and got some fishing done in alligator lake but inly after playing an 18 hole disc golf course!

No issues with camp ground, small and on the hwy.... easy to stop in for the night. If you have a boat, nice lake across the street. full hook-up, 50amp pull through sites.
LegendGreat little park ,Mississippi's first state park,nice small park very clean and well maintained beautiful big trees along the waters edge ,quiet and relaxing open year round with full hook-ups including sewer
Legendpark looks bad looks like flood damage gate is open no one around .electric poles are down and lots of satellite dishes around but leaning nice observation tower bathrooms where unusable we stayed across the river but will check back looks like it can be amazing again
LegendAfter booking through Arkansas State Parks website, we received a follow up call from the park itself which was unusual but very nice. We booked site 42 in area B but there was standing water in the site so we got site 50. We chose this site because it was on higher ground and relatively close to the bath house in area D. The bath house in our area is no longer opened. Bath house D is very nice. We had no problems switching sites probably due to the off season.
Camping areas C and E are closed. Area F has full hook-ups and 30 amps. The sites are nice but a little short. Cabins are VERY nice. Area A contains the prime sites with full hook-ups and 30 and 50 amps. There is a bait store and a marina which rents boats (closed due to off-season). There is a fishing pier, basketball court, pool, 3 pavilions, playground, and a horseshoe pit. The visitor's center is very nice and informative.
Wildlife seems to be abundant as we saw dozens of deer, large raccoons, squirrels, pelicans, and ducks.
Cell phone (Verizon) and antenna reception are good possibly because there are no leaves on the trees.
GuideWouldn’t stay for a long trip
