New 2012 campsite fees for Lake Ouachita
This increase for 2012 campground fees on Lake Ouachita was based on the comparison study
by the Corps of Engineers of area campgrounds providing similar services and the nightly rates being charged
for those services.
The last time Lake Ouachita increased the campsite fees
was in 2006, which increased some of the campsites offering amenities such
as electricity and water at the campsites by $1.00 per night.
The new
Lake Ouachita campsite fees range as follows:
-
Stephens Park:
$12.00 to $14.00 per night
-
-
-
Joplin:
$10.00 to $16.00 per night
-
-
Denby Point: $10.00 to $18.00 per night.
-
Little Fir: $12.00 to $14.00 per night.
-
Little Fir Group Area is $30.00 per
night
-
Twin Creek: $7.00 to $10.00 per night
-
Lena Landing: $10.00 per night.
Golden age, Golden Access, and America the Beautiful passes will be accepted
and may grant the card holder half-price for campsite fees.
Corps
Campgrounds on Lake Ouachita that will remain open through the Fall/Winter Recreation Season

Due to
the fact that campground services will not be reduced through the
Fall/Winter Recreation Season, current campsite fees will remain in effect
as listed above.
Campsite reservations may be 180 days in advance of arrival to the
campground of your choice, except Crystal Springs which will begin on
January 1, 2012. Campsite reservations go into effect for the Lake Ouachita
