    This is one of my favorite national park stops for overnight because they are so clean and so quiet. The grounds are well kept and the bathrooms are really, really clean(at least the one that you need a code to get in). I frequented here when I car camped and tent camped. The hot water in the showers gets really hot (and I love hot showers). Here’s a cheat code for the women… the women’s bathroom with the shower will sometimes have a line, but there’s never a line on the men’s side … so just go use the men’s shower room, they are identical minus the urinal. There are some nice trickling streams on the side of where you park and you can get some really good pictures. Again it’s just one of my favorite stops because it’s so clean and quiet.

    The location is fantastic as it is under 15 minutes to downtown Hot Springs! The sites are tight. As in the back in site we rented had a tree right next to the lane where backing the camper in on the right side which was tricky to get around. There was also a tree on the right side that you must miss by maybe 5 inches to back up to the utility hookups. It's doable but you must know what you're doing to back into the space! Some sites aren't wide enough and this was one of them. I nearly fell over onto the picnic table when I stopped out the door. The tires on the back side was at the edge of the pavement and the steps to my camper was about 6 inches from the camp side. The camp space here was basically behind the camper next to the backside neighbor. This site was also creekside so you have to choose your preferences when choosing a site. There are many sites there that were very spacious and looked very nice! The bathhouse is nice enough and spacious as there are only two. Some people didn't bother to clean their hair up from the shower floor after using the facility.

    The campsites at Gulpha Gorge were great! We had a site along the creek which was beautiful. There was electric hookup. The host greeted us soon after we arrived to set up on December 30, 2025. It was the coldest night of our trip and the only one that we planned to tent camp. In the morning we hiked to Goat Rock before heading into Hot Springs to explore Bathhouse Row.

    They need to make half stars as this is a 3.5 star campground. It’s clean , well minus the trash in and on the opposite side of the creek that doesn’t get picked up . Bath Houses are nice and clean , only one has showers but they are very nice . Lots of dog crap everywhere , I hate lazy dog owners . Sites can be close together near the creek and in the middle of the campground , the only larger sites are right next to the road and that traffic is heard all night . If you are passing through and visiting the downtown area this is for you , you can walk but most will need to drive which kind of defeats a campground in a national park but it’s unique to the area . Lots of things to visit and do so if our just looking for a place to sleep then you found your place . If you want something little more immersed in nature then stay at Ouachita State Park .
