Fort Smith-Alma RV Park | Alma, AR RV Camping

I was traveling through Arkansas and was doing 1 night stays Fort Smith-Alma RV Park is convenient to I-40 nice quiet spot loads of room to walk I was there in February so the pool and things were still buttoned up for winter. It’s a diamond in the rough. I’ll be back

We drive a Allegro bus with tow 65'.the office got os in with room to spare.  It's blacktop drive way level site for big rigs. Full hookup with concrete pads, fire pit, picnic table and barbq grill nice. Pool , cabins  call firvavresv it off the high way so it quit. Wooded for tents and trailers..2 miles of I 40. In Alma Ar.z Ff Smith exit 13,  71 N  short drive  watch for am sign.. wevwull be back.

I first moved to my spot C-5  in April of 2024.
Next opportunity i accepted....next adventure to move west 80 miles.... when Bob the new owner purchased the place everyone was a little concerned because you just don't know if they care or not.
Bob is a great owner and with his awesome crew working very hard to make sure you get value and have a wonderful stay. Sounds like they have some great additions coming soon.
highly recommended!!!

Very good service and hospitality! Clean campground! Spacious restrooms and showers.  Folks were very helpful,  as I had an issue with my toyhauler and the gentleman here fixed me right up!! I would recommend staying at this campground for sure and will be back in the spring!

A Cozy Arkansas Gem!
My husband and I spent three delightful nights at Fort Smith Alma RV Park in Arkansas, and it was the perfect little getaway. This quaint park has a charming, homey vibe that made us feel right at home from the moment we pulled in. The park's location is a huge plus, super convenient for exploring the Fort Smith and Alma areas like the well known "A to Z" shopping. The park had easy access off the highway, yet tucked away enough to feel peaceful and away from the hustle. We loved how quick it was to pop into town for groceries or dining without any hassle.
The sites are well-spaced with plenty of shade from mature trees, and the grounds are meticulously maintained. It's not overly fancy, but that's part of its appeal—clean, simple, and inviting. We enjoyed evening walks around the park with our 2 dogs and the quiet nights under the stars.
The staff truly made our stay exceptional. From the warm welcome at check-in to their helpful tips on local spots, everyone was friendly, attentive, and went out of their way to ensure we had everything we needed. It felt like staying with old friends!
Overall, Fort Smith Alma RV Park exceeded our expectations for a short trip. If you're looking for a welcoming, no-frills spot with great convenience in Arkansas, this is it. We'd happily return on our next adventure through the area! Highly recommended for couples or anyone with pets and seeking a relaxing RV escape.

These guys are the greatest. We stupidly rented a tent site for an entire week without checking weather. Once we realized our mistake they went the extra mile to get me a refund. The sites were nice and the Bathroom/showers were kept immaculate. The guys were out early Monday morning doing what they could to fix any issues on the grounds and looked to be doing things to improve the grounds! I give this place 10/10!!!!!

This RV park is fantastic! The hosts are incredibly welcoming and accommodating. It is peaceful, surrounded by beautiful trees, and has a calm quiet atmosphere. We felt very safe and secure throughout our stay. Highly recommend!

We stayed here twice. Once wile going to our destination,  and once when heading home. Staff was SO nice and accommodating. Place is very relaxing and has that "welcome" feel. It is under new ownership, so take old posts with a grain of salt. I would recommend to anyone looking for a great place to stop, relax, and recharge.

This place isn’t fancy but it’s quite affordable and the service is amazing.  We had a bad experience at another park and they helped us they provided  us a spot at the last minute.  They have new ownership and are making great strides to make your camping experience the best

This is a truly amazing place to stay. Now under new management they have taken huge steps to make it even better. I highly recommend staying here if you are head through or to Alma. Even if you are not it is worth the time even great for long term stays.

Really quiet, clean place, far from traffic.  Just enjoy nature, birds, pound, nice place to stay.

What a beautiful little hidden gem right off the I - 40. The view of the lake was so calming and the perfect way to start the day..The staff are very accommodating and very friendly. Everything was extremely clean with terrific hot showers. Can't wait to see this place in the spring.

They had a tornado come through here in May. Given that, they have done an amazing job getting things back in shape.

This is a Nice older park. Some of the spaces are a bit narrow. The hookups work and the power is stable. The salt water swimming pool was a bit cloudy, but we were glad it was open for swimming. The bass and blue Gill bite like crazy in the pond.

I’ve stayed here before and will stay here again.

Very nice people.  Quiet.  Smaller.  We stay here every time we come to visit family.

our rental was perfect. Thank you to Jamie for all her help. She was phenomenal.
