Caddo River Tent Camping
The site was clean and it was very family oriented and accommodating. Tent camping is first come first served and there were plenty of spaces to choose from. Firewood can be bought on site as well as ice. We were there on a busy weekend so it was more recreational than rustic and there were plenty of people in the area. The owners were sweet and introduced themselves.

Good: Flexibility of where to setup my tent was nice, bathroom/shower, potable water, campfire
Not so good: Main issue was how close to the road & the amount of road noise

Easy to find and great location on the Caddo River. Amenities are kept up well and having the available option for ice and other supplies onsite was a welcome option. Great place for family camp outs.

Had a water issue in our rv the second I hooked. The staff was more than helpful, diagnosing, dismantling and directing me to nearest rv dealer for parts.
Park was clean, and no one bothered us. Would go again

The property was beautiful & wooded with plenty of shade & was kept clean. The gal working was very friendly & helpful. This time of year is the dry season (August/September) so the water was lower than I imagine it might usually be so we didn’t float but the water was clear & cool & nice to put a chair in & either fish or just hang out & enjoy each others company. It wasn’t as busy when we were there which was nice as it wasn’t crowded.

Once again a pleasure staying! Loved walking in the creek and hearing the water while in our tent! Always appreciative for the showers and running water as well.

We loved everything about this campground, the experience for the eclipse, and the family running things. They helped us with everything we needed and even had a live band for the special occasion! Setup was really easy (tents) and the campground was nice and quiet at night - even with all the fun going on during the day. We hope to return!

We camped right near the river for the Solar Eclipse. We enjoyed over 4 minutes of totality on the River with perfect weather and it was not crowded.
It was our own tiny piece of wonderful for 3 days. The river sounds are so relaxing especially at night and people at the campground were really nice and friendly. The weather was phenomenal until Tuesday night. Mike was concerned for our safety with possible river flooding so he put us up in bunk house for free on Tuesday night before we headed home. Really nice people!!
I had never been to Arkansas, currently live in Colorado, but lived in Michigan my whole life. Arkansas is so green and beautiful scenery everywhere. I was so pleasantly surprised!
Waverly, Mike and Lydia and family all worked hard to make our experience a memorable one. The local blue grass band at the campground Sunday night was amazing!
We never left for 3 days and definitely would love love love to come back for a visit in the future!

We camped here during the 2024 eclipse and everyone was so friendly and helpful!! They even had someone round the park making sure everyone was ready for the coming storm and helped us move our grill.
The live band was also a great treat!! The river is beautiful, swimable, and the kids found a rope to swing off into the water; so fun!
Bathrooms were clean, showers were warm. We had a great time!!💚

Great site! Camp hosts were friendly, checked on us consistently, made sure we were taken care of even when we came in late late at night. They had everything we needed, and the sights around were absolutely beautiful.

We absolutely loved staying here. We got to camp riverside, which was a great sound to sleep to. The hosts were absolutely wonderful to us. Very friendly and helpful in helping us find all that we needed during our stay. The bathrooms were clean, and the showers were warm. There is also a basketball court and they had tetherball and a badminton net set up. You can rent Kayaks or Canoes just down the road from Arrowhead. Tons of butterflies and birds flying about too. The river was also the perfect depth for children to swim in without worry of them being taken by any rushing waters or anything right in front of our camp.

We stayed for the 2024 solar eclipse and had an excellent experience! Waverly and Mike went above and beyond in accommodating us and making us feel welcome. Good bath and shower facilities with the serene sounds of the river to fall asleep to

Waverly was a great host! She really looked out for guests to make sure we all were comfortable and able to have a great time.

I arrived after dark during the last week of the season, so my experience was very different from the camaraderie and festivity I have read about in other reviews, but I could still sense the good vibes and laid back atmosphere. I was traveling alone with my dog and sleeping in my car, and since it was dark I chose to just park by an empty cabin . Waverly came by and was so friendly and welcoming, she even suggested that I use the cabin’s sleeping porch which was wonderful since it was raining in the morning and I had a comfy spot to look out at the river and fix my coffee. Definitely a very positive experience!

Great spot to tent camp on the river. Close to little Missouri falls, wolf gap, hot springs, mt ida—but it’s so pretty you don’t have leave unless you want to. Felt extremely safe as a female traveling alone since it’s close to a road (can’t see it though!), there’s WiFi and cell service, and there was staff on site throughout my weeklong stay. Showers and bathrooms a plus. Waverly, Mike, and co are all amazing, genuine, lovely people. A thousand stars.

The area is located on a beautiful part of the river! Rope swings nearby. Plenty of current to float down on a tube and it’s within 30 minutes of some of the greatest crystal mines in the area! All around fantastic time spent on the property! I look forward to coming back and bringing friends!

What a fantastic place to stay , I was traveling through Arkansas and wanted a river front spot to camp, it was a nice community of campers , and the public kitchen was buzzing with activity and felt like a hostile with people sharing travel and ghost stories into late in the night.
This place took me back to my youth floating the Guadalupe in Texas Hill country and I hope to return again. The staff was very friendly , there aren’t many places like this left out there that aren’t crowded anymore so I recommend a visit !

We enjoyed staying at Waverly’s land. The people were very nice and everything (wood, ice, etc.) was on an honor system, which made it feel very family style. The river was nice to cool off in and peaceful. I’d recommend bringing bug spray and a fan if you’re coming in the summer months because it was VERY hot. The bathhouse was a little dated but decently clean. Overall 7/10 and would stay again.

Waverly was super nice and let me park where the tents go because I have a roof top tent - was able to go just along the water. Well maintained campground. Kayaks are fine, but I was not able to use my inflatable SUP, just fyi…more of a float spot than paddle.
