Great lakeside camp sites!

The campground is becoming dated . Its time for an overhaul of the bathrooms and facilities . There is great access to the lake , boat ramps and swimming . The volunteers that are in place are very nice but they are of the age that they only contribute a small amount she the need is large , its not their fault , without them things would be much worse .

The weather could have been a little better but the rest of the time was relaxing. Nearby Hot Springs is a great city to visit with alot of attractions to see.

Clean bathrooms, nice sites, a pretty area, and affordable. Hard to ask for much more.

Site 17 was so beautiful, we even saw 2 eagles. Very peaceful looking down on the lake watching the Canadian Geese.

Lovely view. Nice place for the kids to play. Relatively close to the city.

The campsite was very nice. Bathrooms were clean. The only problem we had was the couple in site #4 kept opening their door before putting their large dog on a leash and he charged right towards my Yorkie. The dog would not obey his owner. One time the dog ran out and went clear to the other end of the campsite and back before his owner caught him. It's fine to bring your dog, however you must obey the leash law!!!'

I hope we can get this spot again, we have enjoyed many in the past, but now this is our favorite!
@JohnN4346623 · Camped on Oct 6, 2025 at Campsite #27
The campsite 27 had a great view of the lake. It is not close to either of the bathhouses . Despite the shutdown they kept toilet paper and paper towels stocked but no soap. The campground was pretty full for the off season. Bathrooms were old and not super clean thus the 4 star rating. Decent service with AT&T. Was able to stream from my hotspot to my computer. Very peaceful even with lots of boats going by.

So beautiful, our site sat overlooking the water with water access so our dogs could go swimming. It was great!
@ricB7F36E53BE6 · Camped on Sep 22, 2025 at Campsite #47
The campsite was right on the water so we could have our boat right there the whole time.
@JimGinaAB0ACAE · Camped on Sep 18, 2025 at Campsite #59
59 slants on the door side. We had to use 2, 2x6 boards under each tire. The grill is close to the canopy if you utilize the pad all the way back, but we didn't have any issues by pulling up some. All in all, good clearance for our starlink devise and our tailgater.
@LonnieB7977882 · Camped on Sep 18, 2025 at Campsite #9

I just used PerfectCamp.com to book six consecutive August nights at the most popular campsite in one of the most popular campgrounds in Humboldt Redwoods State Park in California. That is not anything I could have accomplished anywhere else with the ease I did here! Thank you, PerfectCamp! I LOVE this site! You will find me on several other camping sites but the design, format, functionality, and personality of this the best. It’s fresh and clean.

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
