This is a casino parking lot with E/W/S hook ups. It provides a safe location to overnight or stay if you are gambling. We used it for one night and will use it again if passing through. I did not see any shower / laundry facility. - A hitch and hop

We were there for a week with a festival going on. Nightly rate varied.

All hookups, just parking a lot but they leave you plenty of room. Well lit and security present. I felt safe at all hours. Casino has a great Friday night fried catfish buffet. - SlicksMom

Nothing significant has changed since I reviewed this park 20 months ago. Check in is still at the hotel and the sites are FHU. Your "back-in" site is designated by a 3 sided open box of white lines painted on asphalt. WiFi is available in hotel lobby and there are no other amenities like bathrooms, showers, cable, pool, etc. - Jerry S

No showers or toilets! You get a clean space with utilities. Cable TV available from local cable provider if staying for a month. Half of sites are level concrete, rest are grass or gravel. Working utilities. Staff very friendly and helpful, but office (in next door car lot) closes as five (after hours - pick a spot). Work performed on utilities at many sites, some access holes not filled in, so mounds of dirt at utility hook ups. Quiet at night, but residents in back MHP leave for work early. It's OK if you just need a base to explore the area. - LoneWolf

We pulled in here on our way home from Gulf Shores as it is about half way. No office at the campground, it is in a used car lot next door. Arrived at about 4:30 pm, and no one was at the office. Someone who lives in the MHP behind the campground said it was $20, and he would get the money to the owners the next day. After paying, with absoutly no paperwork, we then find out there are no bathrooms or showers! Not an issue with most RV's, but a tent camper is an issue. Guess what, no refunds! There was traffic through the park all night long, and we were the only ones that were not "permanent" residents. Moral of this story is if you have a self contained RV this might be an overnight stop but not with anything else. I'll drive 100 miles more next time to avoid this place. - bipeflier

We travel a lot for business and found this park via the internet. The owners are extremely nice, pleasant and accommodating. Unfortunately this park has seen better days and needs updating. There is a run down MHP behind the campground that must be accessed through the campground so there is a lot of through traffic. They do not have bathrooms, showers, or laundry facilities. The garbage dumpster is a long distance away behind the MHP. The plus side is the sites are paved, with full hook-ups, and good water pressure even though the sites are narrow. Shopping is located within a couple miles and the casino in Lulu, MS is approximtely seven miles away. - kandid61

The "camping" is all level, and the site we chose was back-in. All pull thru sites (approx.200) were full time permanent. I can live with folks working on cars, abandoned vehicles, RV's with fire damage/ windows out, city folk walking thru campsites throughout night (several openings to lot), trash everywhere, city pound which backs up to park w/overflow of dogs barking all hours. But in 30 yrs. of camping, this was first time ever I was awoken 2:00 a.m. by 3 cop cars to tell me neighbors reported my truck had been broken into. I love the music in town, but won't stay here again. Seriously unsafe. - mitig8er

Came to Clarksdale to check out the history of the Delta Blues music. This is the closest campground to town and is a fairgrounds. You self register by envelope, we never saw an actual person. Most of the full hook-up sites were occupied by long term campers, so we took an electric only site after filling our tanks per a nearby water spigot. Site was paved and moderately level. There were some gravel pull through sites but they were not very long, the paved sites are back-in. The paved road with sites is a dead end so be aware. We did not feel unsafe as there are "street lights". With rain, there were many puddles so we were glad we took a paved site. It was fairly quiet, some highway noise and heard a train in the am. Restaurants not too far away and Kroger and Walmart nearby. - mohocamper

If coming to Clarksdale for Blues Music this is about the only choice in town. A few long term residents but was not a problem. Pros: inexpensive for full hookup, mostly asphalt pads, clean and mowed (festival weekend), staff regularly drove through - and were helpful, close to downtown. Cons: gravel pull throughs can be very muddy when rain, sites on inside the drive are only 30 amp and no sewer (but still pay $20), and delayed maintenance in general - 2-3 sites have broken spigots or electric problems but no notice until you try to hookup, also ants prevalent. Also no sign that drive is a dead end. - BandD

Excellent small park, all sites were level with several pull through spots. Park was well kept, we were amazed at the amount of popups in the campground. Beautiful scenery and just a short drive to the Mississippi River/St. Francis River, as well as historic signs showing parts of the Louisiana purchase. If arriving at night on the long drive back to the park you could miss the entrance to the park, its right before the speed bump. - Mryanwilson

This is a relatively new state park.... i believe that i read that it is the newest Arkansas state park. It is small and very nicely laid out on what appears to be a small island in the lake connected by a causeway. We really liked the park, and it was a great place for kids to explore and play with very little traffic. The only negative is that there is very little to do or places to eat in the nearby town. so if you like to set up and stay put, then this is the place for you.... if you like to set up and hit the road exploring the area... you may find yourself back at the campground after about an hour. I will say that the new visitors center is very nice with lots to look at for the kids. - Bama Bill

This is the newest state park in Arkansas and it is wonderful. Sites are all level, full hookup. Bathroom facilities consist of 4 lockable rooms, each with a toilet, sink, and shower. Very nice.

Sites are well spaced, and every one has a view of the small lake. There is a nearby swimming beach area, in addition to a boat launch ramp.

There is a nice hiking trail across the road from the campground, with signs identifying the various species of trees found in the forest, some of which are fairly old. - HercMaster

It was a little difficult to figure out how to get into the RV park. It is behind the right side of the hotel. We parked at the RV park and then went in the hotel to register for parking even though we already had reservations. They told us we needed to pick out a spot and come back and pay. There were not many pull throughs and those were all taken even though the park was not busy. The park was clean the utilities worked fine and, depending on which site you choose, it was a pleasant stay. There is nothing else to do in the area and a bit out-of-the-way if you were just passing through. - blumarlin

Customer service is horrible. Have to go to hotel desk to register. Made a handicap space reservation with credit card but they did not hold our spot. Told us first come first serve. We asked for a non-handicap vacant spot but they said it was reserved by another customer. We were given different stories by different staff of why this happened. We feel like we are being discriminated against. - Retired RVer2009

Grounds very well maintained. Full hookups and wi fi was very good. Only negative was having to register at the hotel as no one was ever in the campground office. - Part timers
