Camping under the stars

I drove here in my dodge avenger for a weekend getaway to do some crystal digging nearby, this site was beautiful for tent camping. My partner and I will definitely be returning. Host was extremely helpful and responsive. Highly recommend staying at any of these sites! Perks include: Ouachita river access, a creek that runs through the property, bathrooms and showers on site, firewood on site, a volleyball court and more!

LOVE THIS CAMPGROUND!!!

We had a wonderful time here! Site 11 is a little smaller than the others, but it was also more secluded and very shady which we loved. Kasey and Amanda are gracious hosts. Kasey checked on us every day to make sure we had everything we needed. Ouachita River Haven is a beautiful campground and Kasey does an amazing job keeping it clean and has the best grass we have ever seen at a campground! This was our second stay here and we will definitely come back even though it's 800 miles from home!

Beautiful campground with great tent sites. The hosts were friendly and helpful, and checked in often to make sure all was going well. The grounds were clean and well maintained. It was quite a long hike to the bathroom, but that was the only problem I could find. I'd highly recommend them.
