Arkansas has almost more COE waterfront campgrounds than any other state.
Though they are concentrated along the Arkansas River and around the lake chains through north and central Arkansas. Mostly the western part of the state. Plenty of deep water and great fishing. Practically grew up on Lake Greeson off US-70 near Hot Springs. Lake Ouachita has great campgrounds. Bull Shoals mentioned above is world famous.
The Mississippi River south of St Louis doesn't have COE campgrounds on the river like the upper river does. Most of the river south of St Louis is behind levee's or a bluff.
Tom Sawyer RV Park in West Memphis, AR is on the Mississippi River, great views of the heavy barge traffic on the river, however you will not have direct water access. The park can be closed in the spring due to flooding.
Several lakes you can see on maps have good campgrounds. Norfork Lake and Heber Springs are about the fartherst east.
