Really nice campground. Clean restrooms, easy dump station, great scenery and would be awesome for a fall camp site.

We really enjoyed our stay at Waveland Park, beautiful, peaceful and quiet! Only issue I had was the fact the water connect was so far from our RV. Had to go back to town to get additional hose, maybe should put that info in the camping spot description!

Always love our stays in Waveland Park. We stayed in #17, pad was level but a bit of a trick to get into during winter months when most of park is closed. Water at this site is down a pretty steep bank so it requires a long water hose and good knees to get it hooked up.

Nice campground, quiet and reasonably priced. Enjoyed our stay.

Absolutely love this campground, and look forward to returning for years to come.

Bathrooms were very clean. Everything worked. I wish this campground was closer to home. Consider installing fishing docks for those with no boat.

Very nice park, lots of room to get into site. We needed to lift the right side quite a bit to get level, and that, coupled with a drop-off from the pad to picnic table, meant it was a distance from the bottom step to a narrow strip of ground - a few more years, and I wouldn't be able to get in and out of the trailer. However, the view of the lake was lovely, and the sites were well-spaced. We were recommended this site by the very helpful ranger on duty, and I appreciate that. I'll bring a stepstool next time. Had a bit of trouble finding the site because the map on the recreation.gov app is inaccurate, and the paper map at the entry booth is obscured by a big "Burn Ban" sticker on the window. Still, all part of the adventure. The park was quiet, and most of the sites near us were occupied by tents. We camped at Waveland Park Campground in a Travel Trailer.

Beautiful environment!!!
@AmandaH9252568 · Camped on Oct 8, 2024 at Campsite #1
Amazing bathroom facilities! Easily the cleanest I've ever been to while camping. The showers had great pressure and a good temperature. Park staff was friendly and helpful. We will definitely be back!
@RobertT9956944 · Camped on Sep 17, 2024 at Campsite #11
Beautiful park, clean and well kept. We were in site #11. For this site you will need 80 foot of rv water hose to connect to the nearest water connection.
@AndyO6155672 · Camped on Sep 10, 2024 at Campsite #7
Beautiful campground!
@JerryP5188052 · Camped on Sep 3, 2024 at Campsite #9
We had good fishing.
@ShastaHC701D20 · Camped on Aug 8, 2024 at Campsite #25
The grounds are beautiful, clean, and the environment is quiet. Staff were not friendly when passing by. Not sure if I would come back due to being able to drive my side by side around the area because we were in a motorhome.
@PatrickH813255 · Camped on May 15, 2024 at Campsite #11
Site 11 was close to the stage and pavilion. Great spot, excellent views, and the staff responded quickly when the bathroom needed attention.
@KarenS4720852 · Camped on Apr 25, 2024 at Campsite #50
We really enjoyed the park even though the weather wasnt very good. The sites are spacious and we liked the lake view we had. We also visited Hot Springs National Park, which was a beautiful drive to it but disappointing as a NP.
@DonaldL3C8354A · Camped on Apr 13, 2024 at Campsite #8
Friendly staff. Beautiful and clean park.
@GaryH6725051 · Camped on Apr 2, 2024 at Campsite #20

@TroyS7E16EF1AC · Camped on Apr 1, 2024 at Campsite #12
Ive been coming to blue mountain lake for 35 years fishing and enjoying friends. We go up on top of Mount Magazine and have lunch. To Booneville and enjoy the wonderful restaurants there. The crappie fishing is great most years depending on the wind. This year was the most wind that I have ever experienced and caught very few fish but always enjoyed the fellowship with all my friends. I left 5 days earlier than I had booked and forgot to cancel the rest of my reservation but hopefully Ill have better luck next year

Clean restrooms, campsites well maintained. Friendly ground crew and camp host.
@MyraK93CCAD88B · Camped on Mar 17, 2024 at Campsite #39
Camp host check in office location needs to be moved back to the original location. Its hard to check in with trailer and also they are unaware of Who is entering the camp grounds.

Thanks to all our Supporting Members

@BranJen - Santa Clara, CA

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.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
