Very nice park. Didn't have problems with noisy people. I personally didn't like our spot just for the fact it was close to the playground equipment and people didn't think twice about walking thru your camp.

Beautiful park. The shower and bathrooms were decent. The sites are well maintained. The swim area is a bit small and the bottom has a lot of silt and sticks, so definitely bring water shoes. They have multiple ramps and docks. The way you have to reserve the spot is not the easiest (online only). However, there is cell service here, so you are able to reserve it from your phone while here. The site is a little difficult to understand, so be patient. Overall, it's a great park to stay at.

This park is right on lake Dardanelle. We had a good spot with a lake view. The park has bathrooms and showers. Some spots are right on the lake. Very kid friendly with a little beach and swimming. The park has a playground and is dog friendly. No bike trails but you can ride around the park. Lots of boat parking.

We have been coming to Shoal Bay for over 40 years. It is very clean. Has playground for the kiddies. Easy in/out campsites, Corp Rangers patrol regularly so there is NO trouble of any kind other than the general argument on who caught the biggest fish. Today is March the 18th and we just set up camp at Shop for the weekend. I wougd highly recommend Shoal Bay to anyone that loves camping, hiking and just relaxing.
