OZARKS RV RESORT ON TABLE ROCK LAKE- RV Parks In Arkansas
Ozarks RV Resort is one of the few RV parks on our list that offer lots for sale. They do have the requirement that RVs must be at least 24’ in length and no pickup campers or tents but they are not Class A only.
They do advertise a beautiful pool and clubhouse, but the use is limited to owners. They do have a small pool that they allow RV guests to use. RVers that have stayed here love the access to Table Rock Lake for water skiing and boat rentals. One consistent complaint is that the Wi-Fi is non-existent so if you require an internet connection you might need to book elsewhere.
