We have stayed at this park many times over the last 10 years. It is a clean and quiet park with many shaded campsites. They do take reservations and I would recommend making one before going. The park is located on the White River and one can walk to the river for Rainbow Trout fishing. Most of the sites are large and easy to back into. I would recommend this Arkansas State Park especially if one likes to fish. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
The best trout fishing I've ever done. Being right on the White River is very nice. Well maintained and outfitted campsites could be a bit better spaced. Public baths & restrooms clean. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This is a great park, it's right on the White River, has a dock that you can rent boats and fish off of and they have a ton of activities and lectures and things to attend, including a scavenger hunt that my sons did. There's a huge playground, very nice modern shower bathhouse and tons of shade everywhere. You can get sites that are river front but book early, they go fast. A few of the sites are narrow, so choose carefully or ask the park guides for help. They are very friendly and we even saw deer behind the ranger station the night we checked in. Great place, with a new modern tourist center nearby, and Bull Shoals lake is close by for swimming and boating. Can't recommend highly enough. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
1 site has sewer, all others W/E only. This is a great camp ground. Our site backed up to
the river and was close to the boat ramp. We enjoyed a nice view out the back of the trailer (screen room). Trout fishing is good. Cool campground in the evening due to cold water from the dam. Water level in the river fluctuates quite a bit depending on electricity generation. Church service on Sunday morning at the amphitheater. Gaston's Resort nearby has a great restaurant. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Park is extremely clean and very neat most sights are right on the White River within a mile of Dam, great trout fishing, has a store in the park, very nice people that work at park and store, also very easy access for handicapped. We camped here in a camper.
Beautiful, riverfront campsite on the White River. Owners extremely friendly and helpful. Camp store and reasonably-priced boat rental available for fishing and float trips. Very pet friendly. Each site has picnic table and fire pit. All guests have access to washrooms, amazingly clean showers, and large, redwood deck which overlooks the river. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
