Very quiet and clean campground. Restrooms were adequate but could use some updating. Would stay again.

Campsite was clean and all outlets worked. Quiet and Serene. Loved fishing all day.

Great sites. Very clean. Friendly staff. Only problem was that there were cars driving through campground in the middle of the night 3 am. Stopping at every campsite looking at what you have. Corps campgrounds lock their gates so this doesn't happen. I put my stuff away every night.
@Christoph2E020 · Camped on Feb 7, 2025 at Campsite #23
Maybe offer an option for no water or power for tent campers.
@StephenC406899 · Camped on Feb 7, 2025 at Campsite #17
Great sites, not close. Mostly water front. Awesome host.
@RamonaM66912D2 · Camped on Feb 1, 2025 at Campsite #10
Very beautiful and well maintained campground. Great for quiet weekend getaway.
@NancyB3949689 · Camped on Jan 26, 2025 at Campsite #29
Water turned off during frigid weather was certainly understandable. However, no hot water for showers once water available was literally and figuratively a shock!
@MimiC63E880552 · Camped on Jan 20, 2025 at Campsite #17
The sites are very nicelots of treeson the water. The bathhouse was closed due to freezing weather. However, the bathhouse really needs updating. I will definitely return.

Beautiful spot, Mike was a great host. We enjoyed our stay ........ Mother Nature could have provided us with better weather though.
@TravisJA262376 · Camped on Dec 31, 2024 at Campsite #9
A Gem of a campground just off I 20! Large sites with 50 amp and water for cheap. Over 5 miles of hiking trails very well maintained! Bathrooms are dated but clean. The roads are in need of repair and could be replaced.
@ShannonS994874 · Camped on Dec 24, 2024 at Campsite #5
Pretty campground. Loved our private space. Campground was mostly empty when we were there (which was nice). Bathrooms are aged but were clean and fucntional. Men's restroom never had hand soap. Women's did. Showers were hot. Definately would stay here again.
@SusanG3849669 · Camped on Dec 19, 2024 at Campsite #11
Great hikes near the campground. Host was friendly and helpful. The bathrooms are in great need of repair, although the water was hot.
@GaryB5198117 · Camped on Dec 1, 2024 at Campsite #12
Beautiful setting, level campsites and well well keep bathroom areas. Wished we had more time to explore the trails.
@DOUGLASW328135 · Camped on Nov 25, 2024 at Campsite #16
Clean, quiet, beautifulwhat more could you want. Level and well-kept Rv sites.
@RobertW1226972 · Camped on Nov 23, 2024 at Campsite #10
Camp host was Great very attentive and eager to assist in anything we needed park was clean and in good repair
@JeffreyR22ACF4 · Camped on Nov 22, 2024 at Campsite #22
We always love camping at BDC! All of the sites are large with a lot of space between campsites. Hiking trails are well kept. 20 min from stores. Water and electricity are oddly placed so make sure you have plenty water hose. Just a nice quiet place to relax. We just spent 8 days here and it was so peaceful. Firewood is hard to come by. A quick search on FB marketplace and you will find a guy 5 minutes away more than happy to deliver what you need. All local wood

Park is clean and quiet. Showers have hot water.
@CarmonEB5A47DB · Camped on Nov 16, 2024 at Campsite #G1
A beautiful place. Was perfect for our reunion. We are already talking about the next one we will have there. The staff was friendly and helpful.
@BRIANC8885365 · Camped on Nov 15, 2024 at Campsite #13
Great campground! Clean, well managed and very quiet. Definitely recommend if you're in the Shreveport/ Bossier area.
@MichaelB697476 · Camped on Nov 8, 2024 at Campsite #12
Every Veterans Day for the last 4 years myself and some fellow veterans have stayed at Beaver Dam Campground and we love it. Big tall Pines, nice level campsites, clean grounds, a couple nice trails, beautiful lakes to fish in, and friendly camp hosts have made it a great place to stay. My only complaint would be the bathrooms and showers. The bathrooms are clean and serviceable but are outdated and in severe need of renovation. Since the current campground host Mike took over they have improved in cleanliness and serviceability. However, one BIG problem is that the locks on the doors are totally unserviceable or missing. For example, one of the showers closest to campsite 13 has no lock at all, so good luck on not being walked in on. The men's bathroom near the same campsite has a simple bolt latch where one has to lift up on the door to make it work. If you can get it to lock the door frame is so loose that it can be pushed in. The showers are standalone unisex units separate from the bathrooms. I'm not sure how the locks are in the women's bathrooms (I am a male) or the other showers in the campgrounds as I did not visit them all. However, since we are tent campers, my wife will not camp with me here because of the bathrooms and I'm unhappy bout that as this campground is a hidden gem. Finally, if you are an RV camper and have a bathroom and shower in your unit, definitely visit the piney hills of north Louisiana and find respite at Beaver Dam Campground.

Great park, large sites that are shaded. The only negative thing is the condition of the roads in the park. I will stay there again and enjoy the lake and quiet that is here.
@BradleyH440951 · Camped on Oct 24, 2024 at Campsite #4
Very secluded location, which isnt a good thing. Some phone, no internet, no over the air tv. Roads into campground sites are narrow and could use some patching. Restrooms and showers are very outdated, but useable. IMO, they need replaced with newer facilities. Not sure we would stay at this COE campground again.
@ArthurS8170292 · Camped on Oct 20, 2024 at Campsite #11
Nice campsite. Nice views. Quiet
@EliutDBFC66345 · Camped on Oct 19, 2024 at Campsite #22
Sites are well kept. Plan on returning for a longer visit.

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!!!
