Customer Reviews
We have stayed here several times on our Arkansas travels and it’s a great quiet campground along the tail waters of Greers Ferry Lake , Little Red River , lots of great fishing opportunities when the water levels are right to catch a lot of trout . Hatchery is also within the park and a nice place to visit . Eagles are regular visitors of the river so keep a look out . Facilities are clean and sites are as to be expected from a COE facility .
Family camping trip in a 21-ft. Camper. We had a nice, relaxing time. The campground is very nice, well-kept, with several hiking trails, a playground, and good fishing. JFK is one of our favorite spots. The little red river flows right beside it. It's ice cold, but so clear and pretty.
It's nice there. They are asking 5 dollars for day use now. You are going to this place to bring your fishing poll. It's clean, and most sites are pretty big. Part of the park dont have water. There is an electric and dump station. 2 years later, it is still the same. No new improvements, but still nice. Still nice. All sites except A have water now.
Amazing campground, stayed in the D camp area, very wooded, with lots of wildlife, very quiet. Nice paved drive, concrete picnic tables, and the showers are amazing. Trout fishing on the little red river is insanely good. Even a nice boat ramp to launch my kayak. I stayed 5 nights in a tent. With electricity, flush toilets and showers 200 feet away, far from roughing it.
This is a beautiful ,well maintained camp ground .The perfect place for tent camping or campers .Walking trails for miles .It is situated on Collins Creek and the Little Red River . A great place to get in touch with nature .
Site C6 at JFK was very nice. Collins Creek runs right behind the site, so we could hear the babbling brook all weekend. Clean restrooms, easy Red River access for fishing. Each site has a large trash can. Water & electric hooks ups, dump station on site.
