The weather was not good, but the little pull through we were in was ok. Kind of tricky to get to the campground though.
@DennisJ5453000 · Camped on Mar 19, 2025 at Campsite #12
Very quiet & peaceful setting. Our first of many trips there.

The campground was nicely situated, but very wet and flooded at many sites. Looks like there is construction going on as there was a bull dozer present. No one to greet me at the campground and no host came to my site. My site number was #6 and it was fairly level. However, something was wrong at the power pole - insufficient amperage which unfortunately I did not notice when I plugged in. This caused my rig to go completely dead at 2:15 AM and it was cold outside! I could find no one to tell in the morning and found a phone number on the web and left a message. This campground was not as well run as other COE campgrounds I have stayed at in the past.

Hosts were great and made rounds several times a day. I was tucked next to hill overlooking lake at site 22. Bathroom was clean and showers were fantastic!! Noise from road may bother some but not me. Great campground.
@DavidH4978786 · Camped on Jan 3, 2025 at Campsite #11
Short stay over. Close to a state park for hiking. Highway is close by if noise effects your sleep.Excellent buddy sites if camping with friends or family. Away from the main camp and higher.

I visit here because the location is only a few miles from my mother's house. Regardless: the site is very-well maintained and the hosts are uber nice. The view of the lake in the early mornings and late evenings is the stuff of legends, but be warned: the summer heat is brutal! My prior visit was in August and I thought we would melt, lol, so this time: we visited in early-mid November and you can't get much better.

Beards Bluff is a very nice camp ground Well maintained close to Ashdown always some wildlife to enjoy!

Lady greeted us at the office. Campsite was blown off and clean. Nice view of the lake. Quite night of rest. Everything camping should be.
@JamesH5225020 · Camped on Nov 5, 2024 at Campsite #13
The park is well kept and clean thanks to the attendants. They worked at it and it showed. We had a really nice stay !! The traffic on the dam is a little loud but we got used to it quickly.

Wonderful place to stay
@ClaudWBC4FD0AE · Camped on Sep 1, 2024 at Campsite #11
We enjoyed our visit.
@MillieW5004017 · Camped on Jul 18, 2024 at Campsite #10
We have been to Beards Bluff several times and considerate one of our favorite places to camp. The campsites are really nice and the bath houses are exceptional. We camped there with friends and now they are considering Beards Bluff a great place to camp. We look forward to camping there again soon.

The Sunsets are Amazing The hosts are very welcoming, very accommodating. We had an amazing relaxing weekend.
@AnneS8286732 · Camped on Jun 23, 2024 at Campsite #9
Very nice, quiet camping!
@JanH6380055 · Camped on May 17, 2024 at Campsite #16
Site 16 was a nice pull through with a shelter over the picnic table area. The pull through is paved, and somewhat level front to back, but slopes down left to right to the right about 3 inches. Closer to the bathhouse and up from the lake shore. The site is well spaced from other campsites. I would return to this campground and this site again. Camp hosts were great.
@KarenH5592205 · Camped on Apr 7, 2024 at Campsite #8
This is a very nice campground with nice, graveled, roomy sites. We had a shelter over our table, which was nice. Roads are good. Jeff & Shirley were Fantastic Hosts! Very caring, friendly, and efficient! They, along with the maintenance man, were always checking things around the campground to keep it in good condition.
@TiffaniMB0EF0C · Camped on Apr 7, 2024 at Campsite #7
Great park. Host extremely helpful. Property well maintained. Bathrooms clean with hot showers
@KathrynB522687 · Camped on Apr 6, 2024 at Campsite #23
Nice quiet campground, good facilities.
@DebraK99593178 · Camped on Mar 29, 2024 at Campsite #20
This is a small campground but the sites are very nicely spaced. It was quiet. The lake was very pretty & huge. There is a couple of grocery stores in Ashdown Walmart & Brookshire for groceries. Wasn't much for attraction or things to do in this area unless you drove to Texarkana or Nashville. The camp hosts were great.
@jessem2731236 · Camped on Mar 18, 2024 at Campsite #10
Nice people. Beautiful sunset

Nice site. Enjoyed the lake view.
@MichaelF459455 · Camped on Feb 4, 2024 at Campsite #6
It was a very nice and clean campground. The hosts were very friendly and helpful with questions we had. We will definitely stay here again if in the area.
@RichardK748784 · Camped on Dec 28, 2023 at Campsite #15
I camped during the off-season, in late December and early January. Very quiet and peaceful. My campsite was ideal, being paved and perfectly level, and very close to the bath house. As usual, the facility was kept very clean and I enjoyed my stay. However, even in the off-season, the maximum stay is 14 days. At many other ACOE facilities, you can stay up to 42 days during the off-season, but the Little Rock District has not reinstated that rule. There were only 2 other campers in the lower campsite other than myself. I never got the chance to go fishing, but I enjoyed my stay and would easily recommend Beard's Bluff to other campers. I stayed in site 15 in my 25' travel trailer. The local Ashdown ACOE office was open and available and the people there were friendly and "at your service".
@HeatherVF0FAE3 · Camped on Dec 9, 2023 at Campsite #16
It is a very affordable campsite, beautiful scenery. The bathroom and showers were close and very clean. The only thing that I did not like is the gates were left open so people that were not camping could drive down there. I think they need to keep the gates closed and install a gate code. However, there is a couple that stays on site to overlook the place, and the sheriff made a drive through, making it feel safe.

I wanted to thank you for this site and especially for the notifications feature. Thanks to your site and my subscription I was able to book a campsite I've been annoyingly trying to book for 5 years unsuccessfully. So thank you.
@Wondering - Oregon
Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.
