Small off the beaten path campground on the Arkansas River. Quiet, beautiful trees. Wish the water front spaces were open in the off season.

Camp host was very welcoming and pleasant. Bathrooms are nice and roomy with plenty of hot water. Views are fantastic!

Lots of ladybugs, but really nice campground

Site 7 on the river was level and had a lovely view. Friendly staff and clean park. Its far from everything, which is nice for a quiet stay. We enjoy the birdwatching here too!

Very nice. Would be great if there was sewer hookup. But great for a couple days stay. Nice setup pads

Nice quiet location.wish there were more bathrooms but the one provided was nice and clean!
@WalkerS1136001 · Camped on Jul 21, 2025 at Campsite #C8
I occupied a site that was already reserved. There was no indication of that and no mention that reservations are required. Everything worked out, but it was awkward and slightly embarrassing.
@THOMASA5851804 · Camped on Jul 15, 2025 at Campsite #C2
Beautiful view of the river and islands. Bathrooms were clean. It congested at all.
@SandraH9191039 · Camped on Jun 28, 2025 at Campsite #C7
What an awesome place! Beautiful and peaceful. Lot sizes were generous and well kept. Our campground host was super, directing us to a spot which was more appropriate for our rig.
@GeorgeA8786885 · Camped on Jun 9, 2025 at Campsite #C10
Nice sites. Waterfront sites are best, have fewer bugs. Check water levels before going if you want to get on the River.
@SarahT3094084 · Camped on Jun 3, 2025 at Campsite #C15
Many great sites right overlooking the river. Sites are spaced out well. We had the one on the end #15. Even the sites not on the river looked good too. Bathrooms are new, clean, and smell fresh. We almost had the entire place to ourselves around the first of June. Very peaceful parklike setting.
@HubertCC978E7B · Camped on Jun 1, 2025 at Campsite #C7
Pads are long but hard to get into for a 38 5th wheel! Grass was high and chiggers/mosquitos very bad! But it is a campground on the river & that is to be expected. Fun watching barges go by!
@BarbaraL120288 · Camped on Jun 1, 2025 at Campsite #C6
This is a very nice, quiet place to relax and unwind. Pads are very level and well kept.
@TheresaB676023 · Camped on May 18, 2025 at Campsite #C5
The views were lovely, the camp host was accommodating about my site change request, and everything was well maintained
@IanS7069090 · Camped on May 17, 2025 at Campsite #C15
We had a great stay! Very peaceful and remote. Well kept up grounds and bathrooms. If you are looking to be out in the middle of nowhere, stay here! Would stay here again.
@LeeD503DD2D3F8 · Camped on May 1, 2025 at Campsite #C7
The campground was very clean and well maintained. The host, Tonya May, was very welcoming and allowed me to pick a site from those that were available.I have Mint mobile (t-mobile) and the cell reception seemed better on the sites that were closer to the entrance--the further to the right, the less reception.I would definitely return.
@BarbaraP899344 · Camped on Apr 15, 2025 at Campsite #C4
We were just passing through the area but found a great place to stay for the night.The park was beautiful, plenty of space between campsites, quiet, and no lights shining on us in the night. The sunset was awesome, and in the morning we watched a barge pushing through, fascinating.
@GaryR1641966 · Camped on Mar 28, 2025 at Campsite #C13
The Host was excellent
@ScottA1901121 · Camped on Mar 17, 2025 at Campsite #C7
Nice views immediately overlooking the Arkansas River. Facilities well-maintained. Campground host friendly and especially helpful in replacing an all-access card lost when my wallet was recently stolen.
@WENDYB6967976 · Camped on Mar 15, 2025 at Campsite #C10
Campgrounds were lovely. Facilities were clean and well maintained. We were traveling with little o es that used and enjoyed the playground. We would recommend staying here.
@FloydB3252929 · Camped on Mar 15, 2025 at Campsite #C15

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!!!
