Ohana Celebration Park

9 RV Sites, 1 Cabin, 5 Tent Sites

Ohana Celebration Park in Vilonia, Arkansas, offers nine RV sites, a cabin, and five tent sites on a lake in the central Arkansas countryside, with 30 and 50-amp full hookups on a big-rig-friendly layout. Premium lake-front and lake view pull-throughs join group RV sites, with a beach, boat and kayak rentals, and on-site dining. Nine sites run in group RV, lake view pull-through, and premium lake front pull-through categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp, with fire pits and picnic tables. The lake front and lake view categories are worth requesting early. A cabin and five tent sites round out the accommodations. A general store, laundry, personal mailboxes, restrooms, and a pavilion handle the practical side, and the group sites suit families or clubs traveling together. The lake carries the recreation. A beach gives swimming access, with boat and kayak rentals on site and fishing, boating, canoeing, kayaking, and paddle boats from the shoreline, plus inflatable water toys in season. Walking trails, hiking, biking, a playground, community fire pit, and on-site dining fill the rest, with planned activities through the season and strong stargazing over the water. Pets are welcome. The park has been reborn since 2021 under the Mize family's stewardship from the historic Lester Flatt Memorial Park site, welcoming both short and extended stays. Vilonia sits in Faulkner County between Conway and Little Rock, with the Central Arkansas Karting Complex and Precision Paintball nearby. Summer lake season drives demand. With nine sites, reserve well ahead.

Cloud Nine RV Park

40 RV Sites, 3 Tent Sites

Cloud Nine RV Park in Hot Springs, Arkansas, offers 40 full-hookup RV sites and three tent sites with 30 and 50-amp service, cable TV, and rigs accepted to 45 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout. Extra-wide back-in and pull-through categories join a fitness center, clubhouse, recreation center, and walking trails. Forty sites run in back-in and pull-through categories, both carrying water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp with cable TV and site WiFi, sized to 45 feet. The sites are extra wide, which matters more than most guests expect — room to open both awnings and set up outside without crowding your neighbor. Three tent sites round out the lodging. A laundry, dump station, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. A fitness center, clubhouse, recreation center, walking trails, dog park, billiards, and horseshoes fill the grounds, with planned activities through the season. A casino, golf course, mountains, and a national park are all nearby. Pets are welcome. Hot Springs is unlike anywhere else in the country. The thermal springs drew visitors long before Hot Springs National Park was established — the only national park inside a city — and Bathhouse Row's preserved 1920s spa architecture still operates. Oaklawn's racing and gaming, the Ouachita Mountains, and Lake Hamilton and Lake Ouachita are all close. Spring and fall bring the most comfortable Ouachita conditions, with Oaklawn's racing season running January through May and drawing steady demand. Reserve ahead for race weekends and for peak fall color.

Rollin Oaks Park

20 RV Sites, 226 Tent Sites

Rollin Oaks Park in Center Ridge, Arkansas, offers back-in RV sites and extensive primitive tent camping in the wooded river valley country of Conway County, with rigs accepted to 30 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout. This is a nature-first, 55-plus community that prioritizes the Arkansas woodland setting over amenity infrastructure — and prices accordingly. Back-in sites accommodate rigs to 30 feet, which suits smaller trailers and vans rather than large coaches. Primitive tent camping makes up the bulk of the property's capacity. A dump station and firewood are available on site. Guests should arrive largely self-contained; the infrastructure here is deliberately minimal. On-site programming is simple and traditional — a playground, volleyball courts, horseshoe pits, and seasonal special events, which is what family primitive camping has always been built around. Hiking runs from the property, and the dark rural sky makes for genuinely good stargazing. Pets are welcome. Supplies require a short drive, so stock up before arrival. Center Ridge Grocery and Quick Stop are each 6.7 miles out with food, drink, gas, and ice, the Dollar General in Center Ridge is 6.2 miles, and Birdtown Grocery is 7.4 miles. Conway County sits where the Ouachita foothills roll north toward the Arkansas River valley, in the rural interior that has kept the unhurried character larger campgrounds systematically remove. Petit Jean Mountain — among the most scenically spectacular and historically significant sites in Arkansas — is within practical range. The park serves the Arkansas camping season, with spring and fall delivering the most comfortable conditions for primitive camping. Reserve ahead for holiday weekends.

Catherine's Landing

81 RV Sites, 18 Cottages

Catherine's Landing in Hot Springs, Arkansas, offers 78 RV sites and 18 cottages across 400 acres with a mile of Lake Catherine shoreline, five minutes from downtown Hot Springs. Sites carry full hookups with 30 and 50-amp service and cable TV, take rigs to 65 feet, and include waterfront back-in categories, with a zip line, splash pad, and boat ramp on the property. Seventy-eight sites run in premium back-in and waterfront back-in configurations, all carrying water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp with cable TV and site WiFi, sized to 65 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Eighteen cottages serve guests without a rig. A general store, laundry, restrooms, showers, and a gated entrance handle the practical side. Two policies to note: the resort enforces a ten-year age restriction on RVs, though older coaches are reviewed for approval if you send a photo in advance, and all holiday weekends require a three-night minimum. The 400 acres carry the recreation. A zip line runs the property, a splash pad and outdoor pool cover the swimming season, and a boat ramp and fishing pier give direct access to Lake Catherine's clear, Ouachita-fed water. Canoeing, kayaking, hiking, and fishing all run from camp, with bike rentals, a dog park, playground, clubhouse, pavilion, and pond besides. Pets are welcome. Hot Springs National Park is the smallest in the system and the most historically layered thermal spring community in North America, with Bathhouse Row, Oaklawn racing, and the Mountain Valley Spring heritage all five minutes away. The resort operates through the Arkansas season, with summer lake recreation and the Oaklawn racing calendar driving demand. Book holiday weekends well ahead, and confirm RV age approval before arrival if your coach is over ten years old.

Pets are welcome, and there's a playground. Walk-ins are welcome but reservations are recommended, especially for the guest house. River and creek frontage, a pond, walking trails, hiking, swimming, boating, kayaking, fishing, birding, and dark-sky stargazing fill the forested grounds, with off-roading and boating nearby. Oden sits between Mena and the Talimena Scenic Drive on one side and Mount Ida — the self-proclaimed Crystal Mining Capital of the World — on the other, in the geographic heart of the Ouachita Mountains. Rates for sites, lodges, and tent spots are on the booking page. Deluxe mountain view sites book first.

Sun Retreats Horn Lake

10 RV Sites, 23 Cabins, 2 Tent Sites

Sun Retreats Horn Lake in Horn Lake, Mississippi, offers 10 Red Carpet pull-through RV sites, 23 cabins, and two tent sites ten miles south of downtown Memphis, with 20, 30, and 50-amp full-hookup service, cable TV, and rigs accepted to 70 feet. ADA-accessible sites are available, and an outdoor pool and full family activity program run on site. The property was formerly Jellystone Park Memphis. Ten Red Carpet pull-through sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 20, 30, and 50-amp with cable TV, sized to 70 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables, and accessible sites are available. Twenty-three cabins serve guests without a rig, and two tent sites cover simpler camping. Laundry, propane fills and exchange, restrooms, showers, and a recreation center handle the practical side. Recreation is built around families. An outdoor pool anchors the summer with inflatable water toys and a jumping pillow, and a lake and pond support fishing. Sports courts, basketball, volleyball, shuffleboard, horseshoes, and gaga ball spread across the grounds, with gem mining and gold panning, a playground, pavilion, dog park, biking, and picnicking besides. Pets are welcome. Horn Lake sits in DeSoto County on US-51 and I-55, which puts Beale Street's blues clubs, Graceland, and the National Civil Rights Museum within a short drive of a Mississippi address. The two-state position gives families the full Memphis cultural itinerary from a suburban campground base. The resort operates through the Mid-South season, with summer family demand and Memphis event weekends driving occupancy. With only ten RV sites, reserve well ahead — the cabins carry much of the inventory here, and both book out for summer weekends.

Read the category carefully — the Prime Electric tier carries electric without the full hookup set. Forty-eight cabins, hotel rooms, and suites — including three luxury cabin types — and four tent sites make the lodging range exceptional. A dump station and restrooms handle the practical side, and a storm shelter sits on the property, which is a genuine safety feature in Missouri rather than a marketing line. The marina anchors everything, with boat, pontoon, and WaveRunner rentals opening Table Rock for boating, fishing, and swimming. An outdoor pool, hot tub and sauna, fitness center, recreation center, beach, sports courts, tennis, pickleball, volleyball, basketball, a playground, pavilion, and dog park fill the rest, with hiking, live music, and planned activities.

The Ouachita RV Park

1 Tent Site

The Ouachita RV Park in Monroe, Louisiana, offers full-hookup RV sites and a tent site just off Interstate 20, with an outdoor swimming pool, clubhouse, laundry, dump station, playground, and dog park. Part of the Streamside Parks family, it is built for genuine big-rig access on one of the most practical I-20 stops in northeast Louisiana. Sites carry full hookups, with a tent site rounding out the lodging. Contact the park to confirm amp service, length limits, and current category availability for your rig — the published site records are incomplete, and a call gets you a straight answer. A laundry, dump station, restrooms, showers, and a clubhouse handle the practical side. An outdoor swimming pool anchors the property, with a clubhouse, playground, dog park, billiards, horseshoes, corn hole, and picnicking filling the grounds. The amenity package is well rounded for a highway park — a pool and a clubhouse are more than most interstate stops offer, and the big-rig friendliness is the point rather than an afterthought. Sites are laid out with genuine room to maneuver, the laundry and bathhouse are on site, and the dump station means you leave clean. Pets are welcome. Monroe sits on the Ouachita River in northeast Louisiana, midway between Shreveport and Vicksburg on I-20. The Biedenharn Museum, Black Bayou Lake National Wildlife Refuge, and the University of Louisiana at Monroe are all close. Demand tracks interstate traffic rather than a season, with spring and fall the most comfortable. Reserve ahead for holiday travel periods.

Serendipity Resort & Campground

4 Cabins, 9 Yurts

Serendipity Resort & Campground in Brownsville, Tennessee, offers four A-frame cabins and nine yurts on a lake in Haywood County, with a water park, outdoor pool, beach, and disc golf course. Golf cart rentals, on-site dining, and a bar serve guests in the Hatchie River corridor of West Tennessee. Four A-frame cabins and nine yurts make up the accommodations — this is glamping and cabin lodging rather than an RV park. A general store, restrooms, firewood, and WiFi serve the property. Check-in is 3:00pm and check-out 11:00am. Note that four-wheelers and side-by-sides are not permitted, though golf carts are available to rent — contact the resort for rates. The water is the draw. A lake and pond support fishing, canoeing, kayaking, paddle boats, and boating, with a beach and water park for swimming and an outdoor pool alongside. A disc golf course, horseshoes, biking, a playground, and a pavilion fill the grounds, with on-site dining and a bar for evenings. Pets are welcome. Brownsville sits on US-70 between Memphis and Jackson, which gives the resort practical West Tennessee highway access. The Hatchie National Wildlife Refuge protects a nationally significant stretch of bottomland hardwood nearby — the Hatchie is the longest un-channelized river in the lower Mississippi valley, and the surrounding agricultural landscape has kept its character. The resort serves the West Tennessee season. Summer water recreation drives the heaviest demand, with spring and fall delivering more comfortable conditions for the outdoor programming. With 13 units total, reserve well ahead for any weekend.
