While having tacos a hour south as it rained down HARD! We figured we’d head north past our other potential site to maybe get out of the storm. We pulled in and yeah it was pretty dang beautiful. Really only a few accessible sites and one other trailer was parked already. But we wedged our sprinter in, cracked some cold snacks and set out some chairs. Not a bad spot but have a second option in case. No bathrooms 2bars T-Mobile.

The site itself is good, the one by the water is somewhat flat. When getting here there was a diaper in the fire pit, plus a lot of other trash all around. The park ranger came and took names, except ours for some reason. There was a large family at the little “beach” spot which was fine of course. Until they decided to park their pontoon 6 feet from us and let their children get in the middle of us setting up camp, like playing in our fire pit. That was weird. Then until 9 some kid was riding his four wheeler around the camp site, which he wasn’t staying here so he probably lives around here so beware of that. The views are good though.

Stayed here on a Sunday night in mid May. We arrived at 6pmish and out of the 6-8 "campsites" (fire rings and tables) we were the 2nd ones there. It filled in throughout the evening too. We had a nice spot that was level for our camper van. It was pretty quiet and peaceful.

Misty water mornings and relatively quiet camping nights perched on a hill above the reservoir. It’s a wide spot in the Ouachita River full of hope-filled fishermen.
Only one spot is really suitable for an RV, and it was filled by an unoccupied trailer the entire duration of our stay. An open spot right before the campground, lacking the picnic table / fire ring but likely a place larger RVs could park with no issue. Otherwise, this is mostly a tent camping situation, with spots far enough away from the road or on a steep bank.
No Verizon. Lots of road and construction noise being half a mile or less from the small town of the same name.
