I rode through Chicot this afternoon for a second on my way home, and talked to one of the park rangers about where to camp - he suggested the south area and showed me a range of spots. We may end up staying there, but I'm thinking my son doesn't want to stay in a designated area; he wants to go and "make camp" somewhere.
Mung - you mentioned the primitive campsites, how do you get to them? I went in the main entrance and took a left where it pointed to primitive area. Are there areas down the trails? Lived in Bunkie my whole life and am crazy unfamiliar with Chicot...
Side note: I was blown away by how nice it was out there

Primitive sites are on the loop trail that follows the lake shore. Best spots in the whole park. I just can't talk the wife into "roughing it" out there.

Each of the primitive spots are out on different peninsulas off the main trail. They require a hike of a half mile or so, down to the water. You can get there by trail or boat, and they have maps at the office. There used to be maps online, but I can't find one at the moment.

Another recommendation for Chicot. The campsites are easy to get to off of the main trail. Have fun!
