Camp Clearfork

Camp Clearfork operates as a group rental facility within Ouachita National Forest, requiring advance reservations through the US Forest Service ranger district office and liability insurance for stays. The facility features bunkhouses, a dining hall, craft cabins, staff quarters, and recreational amenities including a basketball court and baseball field, designed specifically for large organizations like scout troops and church groups rather than individual campers.

The complex includes Civilian Conservation Corps-era construction and provides access to a reservoir, hiking trails, and lake activities. Campers exploring the broader region can find places to camp around Ouachita National Forest, while Charlton Campground offers traditional camping less than a mile northeast.

Group Camp for rent

This is beautiful place. You can rent it for a large group through the Ouachita National Forest Rangers district. Has bunkhouses, a dining hall, crafts cabins, staff cabins, a basketball goal and baseball field and bathhouses for staff and campers. This is not for the individual camper. This is specifically for large groups (Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, church groups, etc.). Or if you needed a huge complex for a family reunion (we have friends with such a large family they rented out an entire state park for the weekend for their family reunion, Cheminahaut State Park in Bastrop, Louisiana). Has some CCC construction including a beautiful dam. Has a large reservoir/lake, hiking trail. I can not stress enough this is not a place where just anyone can go in and camp. You have to rent it through the rangers district office and you have to have insurance for your stay. This is not a tent/RV campground.
