From Hot Springs, AR: Take US 270 west approxmately. 15.4 miles to North Crystal Springs Road. Turn right and follow access road 3 miles north to the park
Decent. The location is great, the staff is friendly, and the shower house/restroom is clean. The cons were-
1) The tent sites are near the main road that takes you to the marina and campground. The posted speed limit is 25 and people were doing about 40-45 so I’d be concerned for children’s safety.
2) The fire ring and grill needed cleaned out.
3) There are two beaches. One of them closes at 4pm. I didn’t check the hours of the second.
4) I walked a trail and found a small tree had fallen and partially burned apparently awhile ago and has not been cleared from the path. It may have been an abandoned trail I was on.
If I come back I’ll be trying another campground.
Very good campground! Everything was clean and well kept! This site has bathrooms and showers, electric and water at each campsite. We had a lot of fun!!!
Great place to camp with a outstanding view of Lake Ouachita. Ended up going during the winter, but it was still a great experience.
Since it was off-season, the first gate was locked. But you can just drive down and go through the second entrance and double back to get to the first loop.
The sites are perfect! Plenty of options for your personal setup. The restroom facility was fairly clean and has full showers available.
There's some site lighting as well.
