Greers Ferry Lake

Overview

Choctaw Park is located on the spacious Greers Ferry Lake nestled in the foothills of the Ozark Mountains. In the 19th century, a city named Higden flourished where the lake now rests. The city suffered from frequent flooding and as a result a man-made lake was created for flood control of the area. Today, the city's remains sit below the lake, enticing scuba divers and archeologists alike.

Recreation

Whether a visitor prefers boating, water skiing, fishing, swimming or scuba diving, Greers Ferry Lake has it all. The river tributaries keep anglers entertained, as they produce some of the largest walleye in the world; the record breaker was a whopping 23 lbs. In spring, the countryside becomes a photographer's paradise with wildflowers, redbud and dogwood trees in full bloom.

Lazy Person's Dream

Open year round

Rural rolling hill and a good road.  The park is right off the rural road.  Grass is well maintained and you will find very large sites with some paved and some gravel. There is a camphost.  The bathrooms are a very nice size and very clean.

Sites are well marked on the pavement at the beginning of each site.  Some sites are more level than others.  Check the details closely when making reservations.  Area is covered with pine trees and I would want a broom to sweep off the site.

Fishing is a way of life for most lovers of the lake but you also have boating of all types

I had a peaceful stay at this beautiful campground. Tall trees, a lake, and nicely spaced out sites. Loved it.
