Cedar ridge RV park is a little diamond in the dirt just outside of Calico Rock that, with a bit of attention ,love and a couple of months of work could be a fabulous 5 star park.
It is less than 1 mile from "downtown" Calico Rock.
It has full hookups for most of the RV sites ( electric, sewer, water).
It has a bathhouse with shower.
It has a nice grassy play area for your kidlets to romp.
It has trash cans and picnic tables for each site.
Sites are all pull thru with small gravel and mostly level.
The prices per night are reasonably low.
The park is owned by the sweetest man on the planet, Mr. Gene.
It is pet friendly as long as pets are kept on leashes and picked up after.
It has a million dollar view at the end of the park at the bluff that overlooks the White River and the mountains.
Most of the sites are tree shaded or have cool rock formations in them.
The park is never full, there are 12 or 15 sites available.
Best well water you ever tasted in your life.
Close to Blanchard Springs Caverns and Lake Norfork.
There is always a breeze coming off the White River.
Best trout fishing in the world on the White River.
Did you have any idea there were that many stars in the sky at
night? Nice and dark. And quiet.
Now, the drawbacks about Cedar Ridge RV park.
Not all the sites are full hook ups, about half are.
There is no WiFi or cable, but it is available down the hill at the Information Center.
There is no pool or access to the river without going a few miles further down the road to Chessmon Ferry Access.
The park closes in late October or mid November and re-opens in March.
Be sure to check the trees when you come in, some are a little close to
where your slide out might want to be.
.This is a wonderful little RV park that just needs a little TLC, but its the best kept secret in Izard county.
If you want quiet and peaceful, this is your best bet.
Mr. Gene would should raise the rates, he is being too kind.
We love you, Mr. Gene!
