My wife and I love Starkey Campground when we take our RV. We would most definitely like to see the campgrounds season extended at least through the fall season. Most importantly, the bathrooms and amenities definitely need to be upgraded. Would like to see more water and sewer hook ups in the camping area as well.

Upon arrival, campground host was arguing with us that we used the wrong Access card category when we made the reservation. We pulled up the reservation website and showed him that our card did not match the choices on the dropdown menu. He kept arguing with us. It would not have changed the cost of the site. Not sure what we were supposed to do about it at that point....? No campground signs directing what campsites were down which road. This led to a screeching halt at the top of a hill that had a "Dead End" sign. We were not the only ones who had to back our campers up; we saw several people who had to do this as well. No swimming area and no hiking trails, so outdoor adventures were limited. We didn't see any wildlife, not even a squirrel, which we thought was a bit odd. The marina parking lot was packed and very tight, which looked difficult for someone trying to maneuver a boat/trailer through there. There was a tornado warning in effect which produced an EF3 tornado in the adjacent county. Cell service was very sketchy, but luckily we were able to bring up the detailed weather and a storm chaser site on YouTube, so we knew what was coming. We took shelter in the shower house. Heavy hail and winds came with the storm. Only one other family was taking shelter as well. Neither the park ranger nor camp host came around to the campsites to warn everyone of the incoming storm, which we thought was extremely irresponsible. We never even saw them the next morning, and nobody was at the booth when we checked out. On the positive side, the campground is small and quiet. Most of the campsites are spacious so you don't feel crammed in. But all in all, this campground could use a little sprucing up.....and a friendlier camp host. We crossed this one off our list.

We love it here. Have been coming to Beaver Lake, the Starkey area, since 1969. It was hot, and they only have 30A, so we had a little trouble keeping our motorhome cool. The a/c voltage would surge occasionally, causing our a/c systems to shut down - otherwise we had a perfect time. There is a shower house, and vaulted toilets- we don’t use either. No marked swimming area, rocky beach area- but we like it that way. The marina is great, with Hunts pizza drawing a crowd. They also have maybe 10 pontoon boats to rent, and boat slips too. Eureka Springs is a nice curvy drive nearby (20 minutes)

Nice quiet area. Full hookup sites are a long way from the water, up on top of a steep hill. We have camped here nearly every year since 1969, and love it. Saw over 40 deer in 4 days, almost no bugs!

Not on the lake and roads in area are very torturous but nice to have full hook up...rare on ACOE campgrounds.
