Cottonwood Springs Campground
Cottonwood Springs Campground is located about 5 miles west of Hot Springs off Highway 18. It is a hidden gem and very peaceful. It has some scenic views, is close to Cottonwood Springs Lake, and has large spaces for RVs, travel trailers, and tents. When we were there, there was no camp host, but the national forest service and deputies went through the campground on several occasions. There is also no electricity or water at this campground, and only a nice clean outhouse.

Took a nice walk on the road and was rewarded with this.
