Summary
Reservations aren't required; spots are first-come, first-served. Fees are low (around $15–$20/night). The campground features flush toilets, potable water, picnic tables, and fire rings. The vibe is quiet, urban-adjacent, and shaded by scattered trees—not wilderness, but peaceful and well-kept. Campers appreciate its easy access to Hot Springs National Park (20 minutes away) and the Ouachita Mountains. Best visited in spring or fall for mild temps. Ideal for RV travelers looking for a convenient, quiet base near central Arkansas attractions.

Camping Essential Practices
Take all trash, food scraps, and gear back with you to keep campsites clean and protect wildlife.
Respect Wildlife
Observe animals from a distance, store food securely, and never feed wildlife to maintain natural behavior and safety.
Know Before You Go
Check weather, fire restrictions, trail conditions, and permit requirements to ensure a safe and well-planned trip.
Minimize Campfire Impact
Use established fire rings, keep fires small, fully extinguish them, or opt for a camp stove when fires are restricted.
Leave What You Find
Preserve natural and cultural features by avoiding removal of plants, rocks, artifacts, or other elements of the environment.
