Camping at Starkey Campground near Eureka Springs

Public campground · Eureka Springs · 23 campsites

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

About this campground

The lake and surrounding landscape supply most of the recreational draw: Beaver Lake covers more than 28,000 surface acres and the higher conservation pool creates about 449 miles of shoreline lined with limestone bluffs, natural caves and varied woodland that attract photographers, birders and hikers. Anglers will find a broad menu of species in the immediate lake largemouth and smallmouth bass, crappie, bream, white bass, stripers and channel/spoon-bill catfish while the cold tailrace below Beaver Dam and the upper White River are known for rainbow and German brown trout.

“Great quiet campground with pretty easy access to the lake!”

There are no water hookup at any of the lower sites, only at 1-7. There is only 1 shower house and it is very run down and in need of an update. There are only vault toilets no flushing toilets. There was never an attendant or any kind of camp host the entire time we stayed. The 1 and only dumpster onsite was at the entrance where the dump station was. Because of the steep nature of the area come prepared to use a lot of leveling equipment. I recommend staying in 1-7

Great quiet campground with pretty easy access to the lake! It is all on a pretty steep hill and lots of trees so if you have a large camper or are new to backing up, I would use caution. The bathrooms are also just pit toilets which were fairly clean but they do tend to stink pretty bad.
angela h ★ 2 · Sep 2025
There's no host on site to ask any questions. There's also no signs once you get past the one that shows you there's camping, so chances of getting turned around are pretty great. I had spot 19, which is on a hill, and the hardest spot I've ever had to get into. The amount of trees around the spot are beautiful however make it extremely hard to back in a big trailer(36ft 5th wheel). The roads are narrow, and the spot I chose was not level and very slim. There are other spots that look like they've been updated, so those may be better and easier to get in and out of. The outhouse they have near us is not a flush toilet, and there's a ton of bugs everywhere including spider webs in the toilet, you can tell no one's been in there for a while to maintain it. There's no way to check in. However, there was a ranger that came by during the evening to check in everyone. The current spot I have is 30 amps and no water hookup. The view is beautiful and you're right near the lake so that's nice. The lake is gorgeous, and there's a small rocky Beach to hang out on. They also have a swing set up the hill a little bit for the kids to play on. The dump station is set up on the opposite side of your camper, so you'll either have to come in the opposite way or pull your hose underneath. Also, the roads leading up to the campground are very curvy with a lot of low hanging trees so prepared for that. This place looks like it has a lot of potential but needs someone here to love on it and take care of it.

How far ahead to book Starkey Campground

For May weekends, book about 68 days ahead. Three in four May Friday and Saturday arrivals were booked later than that, and half were booked 19 days or less before arrival. Past timing is guidance, not a guarantee of what is open now.

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 (4,367 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.
