shady lake campground

Question

We have a 32 foot 5th wheel. Shady Lake campground in Arkansas looks really pretty. The forest service sit mentions the road in as being rough. Is it a problem for rv's? Also, it looks like they don't take reservations in October. We are looking at the 3rd weekend in October ( Thursday to Monday) . Will slides be a problem? I can't find all that much info about this campground.

We are looking for a pretty, quieter, out of the way campground for the two of us. If you have any other suggestions. This one is about 3 1/2 hours from home. Petit Jean looked to be over 5 hours. So somewhere in the lower half of Arkansas would probably be better.

Thanks for any help you can give me.

shows the road and some photos. Looks beautiful but not sure I would take my RV down that road. Also it says some sites are being evaluated and may be subject to flooding.
34.3628361 -94.0277694 for Google Maps for birds eye view.

Look at DeGray Lake State Park, Lake Catherine State Park. Crystal Springs Corps of Engineers park. About 3 hours away.
Also go to: www.recreation.gov and search for Mena, AR there are 66 campgrounds listed in the area.
