We have stayed at many very nice COE campgrounds and had high hopes for this one. Unfortunately, this particular campground hasn’t been updated. The sites are small and very uneven. Not suited for larger rigs. The site we reserved was too small for our rig even though I entered the size in the website filter. The camp host moved us to the only large enough available site but it was so uneven we couldn’t make it work. Had to go to a different campground and forfeit our reservation. Updated sites would make this a really nice campground.

Middle of winter, place mostly empty, with Christmas on a Friday that's a holiday weekend. Only way to spend a night is to pay for 3. Trails are great. Nice views of the water. T-Mobile & AT&T averaged 20-30 down and 6-12 up.

We were greeted with a smile. Went to our sight. Very nice site, in back of us was the water and plenty of room to walk around. We stayed Thanksgiving week, getting away from people and relaxing. Had a warm fire at night, except for one night, the tornado sirens were screaming and we headed to the rest rooms. The maintenance man and his wife came in, and we stayed about an half hour.
The week was cool, but we enjoyed the walks with our dog Lulu. We had to go to the other section of the campground for our showers. Plus there were lots of bicycle trails.
We had one of those digital “as seen on TV” antennas and picked up over 20 channels, so we enjoyed some football. This park was quiet, even though about 5 more campers came in. We camped in our Grand Design Imagine 2500 bunkhouse 30’. We would definitely camp here again. Plenty of room to turn, and back.

After crossing Oklahoma on I40 East this is a Great place for some R&R. Many birds are in the area. Migrating Geese were visiting the park. On the other side of the stream there are horses in the field. Fish were jumping in the water. For November it was a warm evening. It's a good place to visit.

Only here 1 night but a great stop! Haven’t really explored the whole campground, but it’s located very close to Fort Smith, neat/clean, and quiet. I’m very happy with our experience here. Good cell service too.

We enjoyed a few days at this campground while exploring Fort Smith, Arkansas. The campsites were spacious and included a grill, fire ring, concrete picnic table and concrete prep table, all in excellent condition. Our site backed up to the lake.
COEs never disappoint and this one was no exception.

We stayed here for 9 nights in early March 2019 and had an enjoyable time. Our site, B11, was considered a prime site since it backed up to the Arkansas River, the shore of which was about 50 yards from the back of the campsite’s RV pad. You can save a buck or two per night by selecting an interior campsite that isn’t directly on the river.
The sites in the B-Loop are well treed and should provide ample shade when the leaves are out. The A-Loop is lightly treed and probably would not provide very much shade when the leaves are out.
About 4 other campsites were occupied during our visit in addition to 4 or 5 other campsites that appeared to be occupied by long term residents.
We were able to get our 25’ rig level on the pad without using any blocks, however a longer rig would probably need some blocking because the end or the pad nearest the road had a bit of an incline. Some of the interior B-Loop spots had severe slopes leading to a fairly small level pad, so I would be hesitant to put anything longer than 25-30’ on sites B18 or B20.
All sites except the Tent Only sites in the E Loop have water and 50-Amp electric hookups. All loops have one heated latrine building with flush toilets and the A and B Loops each have a heated shower facility with free push-button showers. The latrines and shower facilities were clean and well stocked during our visit.
This park has extensive mountain biking trails and we saw several locals in the park during daylight hours specifically to ride the trails.
There are playgrounds in both the A and B Loops.
There is a boat ramp in the A-Loop area allowing users to put their watercraft in the river above the damn.
The camp hosts and maintenance personnel were all very friendly and helpful.
We had solid cell signals from both Verizon and AT&T, with both providers delivering over 20 Mbps download speeds. More than ample bandwidth to conduct videoteleconferences and get some work done if you need to.
During our early-season visit we had the place mostly to ourselves, but the hosts say it gets very busy in the warmer months of the year, so be sure to get your reservations at the all-new Recreation.gov website well ahead of your planned visit.

Stayed here in January 2019! They have 30/50 amp, and water hook ups. Loop B has lots of space between spots. Loop A is closer together but still nice and a little cheaper. Many of the sites are within a stones through of the water. The water hook ups are insulated for the winter which is great. I would definitely stay again.
