Camping at Caddo Drive near Arkadelphia

Public campground · Arkadelphia · 70 campsites

A forested campground near fishing, hiking, and mountain biking. RV fit varies by site.

About this campground

Recreation at and around Caddo Drive ranges from low-key to highly active: DeGray Lake's 13,500 surface acres and roughly 207 miles of shoreline (average depth about 47 feet) make it a regular host for fishing tournaments, triathlons, boating, jet-skiing and scuba diving, while calmer options include kayaking tours, hiking, biking and wildlife viewing. Onshore amenities in the broader park system include picnicking areas, playgrounds, tennis and horseback-riding trails, and visitor-center programs; you'll also find concessions and a resort-style lodge a short drive away.

Reviews

Selected reviews

Verbatim from guest reviews on Recreation.gov ↗ (99 reviews, ★ 4.0). Not written or edited by us.

“The campsite is next to the lake and convenient for launching a boat. The downside is early morning noise from the boat ramp. Bathroom nearby and electricity at the campsite. ”

Jeffrey H 5 · Oct 2025 · Recreation.gov

“Glad that it was turtle head sticking up out of the water instead of snake. Sure was a peaceful week but I wish we have showers in the bathroom since the rates are the same as the area that have showers. I love being close to the water.”

Months with fewer than 30 reservations of that kind are left blank. Sites where nearly every booking was made the day of arrival (pay on arrival) are left out. Closed seasons, windows not yet released for booking, and currently unavailable nights are separate from this history.

Based on Recreation.gov reservations, FY2015–2025 (6,803 reservations in the years scored). Counts reservations made, not nights actually camped: cancellations aren't in the data, and nights a site was closed count as not booked. FY2020–21 (COVID) are left out of the scores.
