About

Quarry Cove Campground occupies a scenic position on the shores of Nimrod Lake, a 3,550-acre reservoir managed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers in west-central Arkansas. The campground provides 31 modern, shaded campsites, all equipped with electric (50-amp) and water hookups, picnic tables, and fire pits. Facilities include flush restrooms, hot showers, a dump station, and a fish cleaning station. Recreation opportunities abound at this lakeside location. Anglers can target catfish, bass, bluegill, and crappie, while the on-site boat ramp provides easy lake access for boating and water sports. A swimming beach offers a refreshing retreat during summer months, and the playground and amphitheater provide additional family activities. Wildlife including white-tailed deer, wild turkey, and black bear may be spotted in the surrounding 21,000 acres of public land. The campground is conveniently located adjacent to Arkansas Highway 7, a designated National Scenic Byway, with Petit Jean State Park, Mount Nebo State Park, and Hot Springs National Park all within reasonable driving distance.
