Arkansas River - COE/Maumelle Park Good Sam Verified Campground

We just pulled in today, but so far, this is a rare gem. With a 38 ' class A and a tow, we wanted something that didn't take us into the city proper. It was very easy to get to and we were delighted to find many trees in the campground and an easy pull through paved lot. Not too close to neighbors, a picnic table, all utilities, and a pretty river within viewing and walking distance. Two minor reasons we didn't give this park all 5 stars: campsites were not well marked and it was confusing... Read More

We just pulled in today, but so far, this is a rare gem. With a 38 ' class A and a tow, we wanted something that didn't take us into the city proper. It was very easy to get to and we were delighted to find many trees in the campground and an easy pull through paved lot. Not too close to neighbors, a picnic table, all utilities, and a pretty river within viewing and walking distance. Two minor reasons we didn't give this park all 5 stars: campsites were not well marked and it was confusing to find even with the map; and the showers were very small with not enough hanging apparatuses. Plus, the entire floor was wet and gritty making it impossible to put feet into clean, dry shoes. However, those were minor inconviences when compared to the other attributes. Highly recommend this park.

We stayed at Maumelle Park for 8 nights. Our site was on the river. Although it rained almost the whole time we were there, we didn't experience any flooding. As in most COE parks, the staff are "work campers" and were very friendly. This is a park that we frequented when we lived in the LR area in the 1980s and 90s. The park has not changed much over the years and we would have rated it a 5 across the board if there was a pool. The river is great for fishing, but not swimming. My Verizon hot... Read More

My Verizon hot spot worked fine for my internet and I was able to find a clear view of the sky for my DISH. We would certainly return to this park as we did this time after 18 years.

We have stayed at this campground twice. It is an Corps of Engineers park and for the most part is kept up very well. Rest rooms are clean, but one of the toilets was missing in the men's room. Sites are available riverside (Arkansas River) or inland. Riverside sites are shaded and give a very good view of sunrise and moon rise. Most sites have city water and 30a or 50a service and the park is pet friendly. Boat launch ramp and marina are nearby. Close by is Pinniacle Mountain State Park and... Read More
