Rising Star in AR -- Campground & RV Camping in Arkansas

Rising Star Campground sits in a forested area along the Arkansas River waterfront at Pool 3 Lock and Dam, near rolling cotton fields 12 miles from Pine Bluff. The park features 25 campsites with electric and water hookups, hot showers, a dump station, a playground, and a reservable day-use group shelter for up to 60 people. Water activities center on catfish, bass, crappie, and bream fishing in the lock tail-waters, as well as boating and hunting for ducks on the river and game in nearby forests. Red fox and waterfowl are common sights along the shore.

The road in has not been measured -- unknown, not bad. Sits on broad, near-level ground.

A river runs 0.1 mi off. Open country -- nothing named rises within 30 miles of here. Most sites here have an electric hookup -- most of them shaded. The nearest town, Pine Bluff, is 16 mi off.
