Arrived mid-day on a Sunday and were greeted by the camp host who said there were 2 open spots including one that backed to the creek which we ended up taking. It was a large, level site that was shaded and close enough to the creek to hear the water. It was a 50 amp FHU site. Sites are first come, first served. Once you chose a ... more

We found this campground to be very nice. Our site and many around us had plenty of room although as others have mentioned some of the sites are tighter. This is a first come first serve so arrive early. We had arrived just before 3pm on a Sunday and there were multiple spots still available to choose from, but many of those fill... more

I was under the impression that the discounted rate applied to NPS annual pass holders, it does not. The park is nice, but tight, I don't think it's worth $30/night with a free option right around the corner... but I'm cheap. I could not swing any of the available waterfront sites with my 30' trailer.

This is a gem of a park and beautiful and forested. But, extremely difficult to find! This campground is in Hot Springs, so great for sightseeing Hot Springs with all it's historic buildings and Spas. You can hike all day, then go get a massage and dinner...can't beat that fun! The campground while clean (due to volunteers) is very ... more

Very nice campground with full hook up spots along scenic Gulpha Creek. We had no services (no water, no electric, bathrooms locked) due to the government shutdown, but we made use of the communal springs in town to fill our water tank and that's all we needed for our stay. The campground was very well kept despite no services per s... more

We camped here during the December 2018 government “shutdown” so our experience is likely a bit out of the norm. The campsite was officially closed, but the gates were open and a handful of other campers were essentially boondocking in the park. We only planned to stay one night so we decided to go for it. All the electricity was of... more

Very nice campground with a creek running across the back of many of the sites. Very well-kept with excellent campsites. Only downside, The campsites are too close together.

Like most of the other reviewers, we thought this campground was spectacular. Our site, #20, had hude stone steps leading down to the river that runs adjacent to some of the campsites, and the portion of the river we could access from our site was stone-bottomed and only a few inches deep; PERFECT for our 3 little one to romp about it ... more

No need to cover basics as previous reviews do that well. Just a few notes from our visit. We were here the last 3 days of October and by evening there was no vacancy all 3 nights. Looks like optimum arrival time is between 10:30 and 2:30. We were able to get a creekside spot (with a fire ring) so road noise was a non issue. Sites ar... more

LOVE LOVE LOVE this place! Hot Springs National Park is actually part of the town which is very walkable with some great restaurants and breweries. All the camp sites at Gulpha Gorge are on a first-come-first-serve basis and are full hookup sites. The bathrooms are very clean and well kept, but no showers. When we were there, we m... more
