Dam - Quarry, near Mountain Home, Arkansas, is a solid choice for those looking to enjoy the great outdoors with a mix of relaxation and adventure. The campground is right by the Norfork River, making it a prime spot for fishing and kayaking, with a boat ramp conveniently located on-site.

Campers appreciate the level paved sites that come with picnic areas, fire rings, and even some covered spots for those sunny days. The bathrooms are clean and private, each with its own lockable door, which is a nice touch. As one visitor noted, “Clean and private bathrooms” make a big difference when you’re out in nature.

For those who love to fish, the cold waters of the river provide excellent trout fishing opportunities, especially when the generators drop water levels. Plus, the nearby trails offer great hiking options, although some areas may be closed for water sports. If you’re looking for a peaceful escape with beautiful views, this campground has you covered.

## Overview

 Dam Quarry Campground is an angler's paradise. Located in northern Arkansas, just downstream of the Norfork Dam, the campground is renowned for its world-class trout fishing. The Norfork Lake region was one of the state's first water recreation areas with opportunities like water skiing, canoeing, scuba diving, and of course, fishing. 
## Recreation

 While fishing is the top-rated activity in the lower river area, kayaking, birding and hiking are also very popular. The public land around Norfork keeps hunters busy with white-tailed deer, wild turkey, squirrel, rabbit and quail. 
## Natural Features

 The campground sits at the banks of the North Fork River and Dry Run Creek. The river feeds the popular 22,000-acre Norfork Lake, which is just upstream from Dam Quarry. The site has beautiful views of the forested hills and hollows of the Ozarks. 
## Nearby Attractions

 A short drive south takes visitors to the Ozark National Forest for sightseeing and wildlife spotting. The campground is also just three miles northeast of the small town of Norfork. 
## Charges & Cancellations

 Cancellations up to 2 days before a reservation start date incur a $10.00 cancellation fee.

close the the river and next to the hatchery 
 Great fishing and it’s neat to watch the water rise from the dam. 

nice getaway

Beautiful waterfront camping! The water is clear and freezing cold, and the breeze off the water feels amazing! The sounds from the dam releasing water is so peaceful! Would definitely recommend and stay here again!

Great trout fishing!

We reserve the group site every year. There are several camp sites in this one location. Great for family get together. Private pavilion. Vault toilets are being upgraded to flush. Electricity and water, but not at every site. Right by Norfork Dam and Norfork River. 

Group Site

We stayed in 2 spots. The first one was beautiful and not much traffic. The next 3 nights, we felt like we on a highway. We also had people walk right through our camp on more than one occasion to walk their dog then left their waste. And no sewer hook up, cell service, wifi or TV. 

Ok park. Hosts are not friendly

Beautiful setting in the Ozarks with a small rural town   The campground is located just below the Norfolk Dam. Great spot to fish or kayak has a boat ramp but the creek was rather low surprising since the lake at Mountain Home was flooded. Clear stream. Campground is totally flat   Showers flush and pit toilets drinking water dump station and trash

Very crowded but beautiful 

Wonderful COE park. Can be crowded in the summer but very quiet. Lots of summer activities to do. Views are beautiful. Hiking is closed. So is water sports

Nice location for the river and lake

Great campsites along the river , cold water trout stream makes the air temp several degrees lower . The hatchery is across the road and you can easily access Norfork Lake a short drive away . Clean bathrooms and not a lot of traffic 

Great Views

We have stayed here many times in te summer heat . The Norfork river provides great cool breezes early and late during the day . Fishing is. Eat when the generators start drop water levels and early mornings without generation.  Excellent Verizon 5g

Great Summer Heat Retreat

Average space between sites. Level paved sites with gravel picnic area including picnic table, fire ring, lantern hanger. Some sites had covered picnic area. Limited shade, most sites don’t have trees. Good access to sites. Clean and private bathrooms. Each room had its own lockable bathroom with toilet, sink and shower.  Garbage cans were outside of bathrooms, as well as dumpsters near the registration building. Friendly staff upon check in. Campground was patrolled regularly. No laundry or recycling.  Nearby road with little road noise. Verizon cell signal was excellent. There is a dump station and potable fill station. No store or food for purchase on site. No hiking in campground, but multiple trails nearby. Boat ramp at campground and lots of wading fly fishing in river. Fish hatchery across from campground. 

Clean campground, nice location

Decent campground with excellent trout fishing! The campground layout was kinda weird and the dump station was in an odd spot. However, we had a nice river front site that we really enjoyed. Lots of nice people in the campground and on the river. Be sure to visit the hatchery across the street.
