I love the atmosphere at Willow Beach Park! Today was absolutely amazing! The park is clean . Every time I visit this park. It’s always clean. If you want to sit out and enjoy a peaceful place of enjoyment with the family. Willow Beach Park is the place. 💯 ❤️❤️❤️

Stayed 2 nights in our Casita travel trailer on the way from NY to TX for rest. Good choice! Roy and his wife Debbie were gracious hosts, good information, kept an eye on all in the park especially late afternoon into the evening by driving thru. Neighbors quiet, friendly, bathrooms decent enough to use. Great to be on the water, especially sunsets. Sites are level, some of the picnic benches have pavilions over them. Also have grill and fire pit near. Next to new children's playground, plenty of space to walk, bicycle within park. There was a wedding in the park and they saw we were from New York and sent us food as a lively way to show southern hospitality. A big thank you!

Went out there to fish but the boat ramps and all the little side banks have DOZENS of water moccasins! The campsite 🏕️ area looks very clean and well taken care of. Do NOT recommend to bank fish this area. We left immediately after seeing 8+ snakes in one area. Will probably be back to drop a boat in and give this area another shot. With that many snakes in the neighborhood I would recommend some snake boots for sure! Give this 2 stars because of the camping area was clean but the rest I didn’t want to even go look due to the amount of snakes in the area.

It's a great place to spend time. Beautiful camp ground. Peaceful area, but yet close to Little Rock.

Got Some Time? Got $5.00 Dollars? Put this location on the to do list for a relaxing adventure for alone or with a group. The waterside picnic shelters are in excellent condition for outside cooking, and with clean tables and protective covering a surprise change in weather would not stop a party. Boat slips and bathrooms are nearby with trees and trails a plenty. Got a good BBall game? Does not matter, even if you suck at hoops, the basketball court have full nets and a clean surfaces for teams to play on or a chill spot to practice. On my visit the bathroom was more than clean, a few dead lady bugs but no Giant as spiders or webs, no insects at all really and on this chilly morn, the heater in the space kicked on while I was taking a poop. TMI? GO Fishing of the bank or by boat, your gonna have a blast. FYI, Plan to stay, wide open spaces offer plenty of room to do your own thing and of course don't forget the Beers!

Beautiful campground with huge spots. Not many spots total but for how few there are they make up for in space and views. Lake front spots are primo but the opposite side is hardly a step down with plenty of open lake views still to be had. Concrete slabs (mostly level), stone picnic tables and 30/50 and water for every spot. Some spots have covered tables and what looks like stone cocktail tables, rad. Boat launch and day use area was pretty and very clean. Bathrooms and showers were warm and clean. Dump station is easy to navigate.

Quiet and peaceful today. Picnic area along riverbank is closed . Fishing towards the entrance is open and families seem to be enjoying themselves on the pier.

Beautiful location on the Arkansas river. We have seen so many different birds here, pelicans, Great Blue herrons, great white egrets, and lots of different ducks. Quiet campground with a guardhouse and lockable gate that is locked from 10pm to 6am. Campers have a code to unlock the gate if you need in or out during those hours.

This is a nice, quiet Army Corp of Engineers park fairly close to downtown Little Rock! We ran into this camper while we were camping for a week. They are a fishing tackle and lure vendor from Illinois heading to the Arkansas State Fair to setup their displays. They’re pretty sure they get just as many waves when they travel the highway as the Weiner mobile!

Nice, Quiet and Level spots. The view is awesome, lots of wide open space, a nice playground. Each site has a picnic table, grill and fire pit. F-6 was level and the picnic table had a pavillion. Bathrooms were clean. I would stay here again!
