    Pecan Grove RV Park

    Nice stop

    Pecan Grove is a nice place to stop on our way home from Florida. There’s several permanent residents but it seems there is always a spot for us to stay for a night. Nice concrete pads in several pull through spots.

    Wilbur D. Mills

    No host, unkept

    This is several miles beyond Pendleton Bend. No host, very unkept, dirty, mostly a fish camp with long term campers. Could be much nicer with a little attention. Lead photo is from Pendleton Bend NOT Wilbur Mills. 2024

    Warfield Point Park Washington County Park

    Mississippi camping

    Decent park on the Mississippi. Park is maintained although needs more attention. Awesome location and should be busier. About 5 full timers and a few overnighters. We got a site right on the water. Nice viewing tower, launch ramp. Very nice park host, Joel.

    Pecan Grove RV Park

    Disappointing

    Can’t see the lake. Right on the highway so there is lots of noise. Mostly a long-term park where many of the rigs are not in very good shape.

    Beautiful But Without a Comfortable Bathroom

    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!)

    Flamingo Pointe RV Park at Lake Wallace, 2 miles off US HYW 165

    Review

    We had a great stay!  Jeff met us at the site, showed us around the premises, suggested great spots to enjoy dinner, and checked with us the next morning.  The location was very quiet, nicely maintained and had full hook ups.  The best part for us was enjoying the sunset and sunrise out by the water with a campfire and our 2 pups.  We would recommend this campground to anyone.


Guide to Beulah

The Mississippi Delta region near Beulah offers camping opportunities with distinctive natural features that change dramatically with seasonal water fluctuations. Located within the Mississippi Alluvial Valley, campgrounds in this area sit at approximately 130-160 feet above sea level on predominantly flat terrain. Summer humidity reaches 85-95% with temperatures regularly exceeding 90°F, while winter temperatures typically range from 30-60°F.

What to do

Fishing spots year-round: Lake Chicot State Park Campground offers excellent fishing opportunities throughout all seasons. "We saw dozens of deer, large raccoons, squirrels, pelicans, and ducks," notes one visitor to Lake Chicot State Park Campground, highlighting the abundant wildlife viewing opportunities while fishing.

Bird watching from observation points: The Mississippi Delta serves as a major migratory corridor with seasonal bird activity. "Amazing sunrise and bird activity," mentions a camper at Lake Chicot State Park Campground, who particularly appreciated watching the morning activity. Winter brings pelican sightings across multiple campgrounds.

Boat launch access: Multiple campgrounds provide direct water access for boating and fishing. "There is a nice boat ramp on the river," reports a visitor at Warfield Point Park, which features riverfront campsites directly on the Mississippi River.

What campers like

Quiet off-season camping: Many campgrounds in this region become notably peaceful during non-summer months. At Merrisach Lake Park, a camper shares: "We stayed in e10 Thanksgiving 2020 it was very quiet only 2 other campers in our area."

Generous spacing between sites: The region's campgrounds typically feature larger-than-average campsites. "The sites are spacious. For example, the water hookups are half way between the sites to be shared, and my 50ft hose just barely could reach," notes a visitor at Pendleton Bend.

Wildlife encounters: Camping in the Beulah area regularly includes close wildlife observations. "We had fun with coons. Very shady," reports a camper at Pendleton Bend, while another mentions "plenty of wildlife."

What you should know

Flooding impacts accessibility: Recent flooding has affected several campgrounds. "Park looks bad looks like flood damage gate is open no one around. Electric poles are down," reports a camper at Warfield Point Park in 2021.

Limited cell coverage: Many campgrounds have spotty or no cellular service. "There is absolutely no cell phone signal and no WiFi, so have physical directions on you," warns a camper at Pendleton Bend.

Seasonal closures: Several campgrounds close during winter months. One camper reported about Wilbur D. Mills: "Went by 1/17/2021 closed for winter saw a few pelicans."

Bathroom maintenance varies: Facility quality differs significantly between campgrounds. "This is several miles beyond Pendleton Bend. No host, very unkept, dirty, mostly a fish camp with long term campers," notes a recent visitor to Wilbur D. Mills in March 2025.

Tips for camping with families

Look for modern shower facilities: Finding campgrounds with well-maintained bathrooms makes family trips more comfortable. A visitor to Lake Chicot State Park Campground notes: "Bathroom and showers were great. Clean, good water pressure and plenty of hot water."

Consider historic sites nearby: Some campgrounds offer educational opportunities within short drives. "The park is only a couple miles from Arkansas Post National Memorial which was very beautiful and worth a visit," shares a camper at Arkansas Pendleton Bend.

Check for swimming options: During summer months, swimming options provide relief from heat. The Peacock in the Delta offers unusual amenities: "All guests are welcome to use the swimming pool (June 1-October 2), tennis court, horseback riding, walking trails."

Tips from RVers

Sites with direct river views: Several campgrounds offer premium waterfront spots for RVs. "Several of Warfield's campsites are literally river front," notes a camper about placement options.

Cash-only payment policies: Come prepared with cash at certain campgrounds. At Warfield Point Park, a camper warns: "Payment is CASH ONLY" and clarifies misconceptions about hookups: "Their site says 52 full service sites, that's a lie! They only have 5 sites that are FULL hookups."

Winter RV considerations: Winter camping requires checking which facilities remain open. "Campground areas C and E are closed. Area F has full hook-ups and 30 amps. The sites are nice but a little short," details a visitor at Lake Chicot State Park during off-season.
