RVers with a boat to launch will get the most out of sites 11-17: river views, full hookups, and pull-through length. Fall lowers the heat and crowds without killing the scenery. The Ginkgo Petrified Forest is a five-minute drive for a worthwhile geology detour.
Tent campers face a real problem here, exposed sites, almost no windbreaks, and gusts strong enough that reviewers warn against staking down at all. Add 100°F summer highs with minimal shade, and it's a punishing setup for anyone sleeping in fabric.

Summer brings the warmest water and best boating conditions. Daytime highs in the mid-80s to low 100s, occasional spikes above 105°F. Wind gusts of 15 to 28+ mph are the norm, not the exception, so secure awnings and use heavy tent stakes. July 4th weekend fills the campground. Spring and fall deliver cooler temps and fewer crowds, though wind persists year-round. Shade is scarce across most sites; bring tarps or canopies if you need relief from the sun.
Cooler temps and good views make fall attractive; less extreme heat than summer.
