Wilbur D Mills Campground

Situated along the Arkansas River, Wilbur D. Mills Campground offers a serene retreat where the gentle lapping of water against the shore sets the rhythm of daily life. This small, quiet campground provides 21 well-maintained sites with electric and water hookups, perfect for RV enthusiasts and tent campers alike. The park's location just downstream from the Wilbur D. Mills Dam creates a unique environment where riverside relaxation meets excellent fishing opportunities.

The campground's layout takes full advantage of its riverside setting, with some sites offering direct views of the Arkansas River. Clean facilities, including hot showers and a convenient boat ramp, enhance the camping experience. Nature enthusiasts will appreciate the abundant wildlife, particularly the diverse bird species that frequent the area, including the endangered Least Tern.

Located 18 miles north of Dumas and 15 miles south of Gillett, Wilbur D. Mills Campground serves as an ideal base for exploring the rich natural and historical heritage of southeastern Arkansas. The nearby Arkansas Post National Memorial, marking the site of the first European settlement west of the Mississippi, provides a fascinating glimpse into the region's past. For outdoor recreation, the surrounding area offers excellent opportunities for hiking, boating, and world-class bass and catfish fishing in the dam's tailwaters.
