The campground was well-maintained and was an ideal location to access downtown Hot Springs. The spaces were not too close together and the benefit of having a sewer connection at each campsite was terrific. The small creek that ran along side. The campground was beautiful. Would love to camp here in the summer and enjoy this creek.

Love this campground. This spot is away from the river but was good for an overnight stop. Like many national park RV campgrounds the spot is not level, by a long shot. Bring your leveling blocks, you will need them. That said, I was able to level our rig. Gorgeous National Park campground near an urban area.

Camp host were excellent Barry and Brian. Overall experience was exceptional. Park was gorgeous. The area is accessible and we will come back. My only minimal issue was the shower house did not seem to actually get cleaned/sanitize although the trash was emptied the toilet paper was refilled and the facility is fantastic.We are already planning a return trip for the end of this year

Gulpha Gorge Campground is a small but beautiful nature campground. Your camper was back up to the river with a rock cliff wall on the other side, you could hear the water babbling by even in the camper. The site was easy to get into, sites were clean and utilities hook were in great condition. I used the shower/ bathroom, clean and well maintained.Hot Springs a really interesting historical background. We hiked to trails behind the bath houses to the tower, walked the bath house row and drove around the local lake and local area. We had a really nice experience.

Friendly hosts and staff. This a great, classic style campground in a woodsy setting. Not a concrete RV park like so many places are now. Full hookups made things easy with the camper. Smaller driveways and pads so pay attention to your lengths and room for parking. Fairly quiet except for some road noise. Easy access to numerous hiking trails, and super close to downtown Hot Springs area for quick trips into town. I loved it and will plan to return soon.
Good

The campsite was clean and in good condition. The restrooms and shower were clean and week stocked. The view of the cliff on the other side of the creek was incredible!

Bathrooms were very clean, campsite was as private as any RV site generally is, the site and grounds were beautiful and well kept. I'm not generally someone that calls RV-ing, "camping", the places I go to camp NO RV can go. That said, this was a very nice place for my wife and I to stay while we checked Hot Springs off of our national park checklist. If you enjoy RVing, I can't imagine you would be disappointed.
Excellent

Super nice campground with full hook ups (a nice surprise for a NP) and big rig friendly.
@KathleenY89157 · Camped on Feb 10, 2026 at Campsite #42
Gulpha Gorge is a beautiful campground. We were only there overnight, and it was a very easy in and out. We were able to take a much needed and very enjoyable short hike. The facilities were clean and updated. I wish we would have had more time to explore the area. Yes, I would not hesitate to recommend this campground.
@JeffC9633298 · Camped on Feb 10, 2026 at Campsite #33
Quite. Calm. Nice stream. Campsites close together.
@ChristalW983F4 · Camped on Feb 8, 2026 at Campsite #41
The sites were well spaced and neatly maintained. I enjoyed that the bathroom was gently heated (and very clean) on the cold mornings.

One of my favorite campgrounds! So well maintained and creek running through so peaceful.

@RodneyPC4850E0 · Camped on Feb 5, 2026 at Campsite #36
We really like the close proximity to the campground. How the water outlets were insulated so they wouldnt freeze thought that was a good idea. And if we had more time we wouldve stayed longer to explore more but unfortunately, this was just a stop over from Texas.

We hunkered down during the vortex, arctic freeze. Camp Host was good at keeping the roads clear of the snow. We always had electricity. Restrooms were nice.

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.
