Beaver Lake
Overview
Horseshoe Bend Campground sits along the vast shores of Beaver Lake in the Ozark Mountains of Northwest Arkansas, offering spacious and sunny campsites and an abundance of recreational activities.
Recreation
Fishing opportunities are plentiful near Horseshoe Bend Campground. Beaver Lake has more than 28,000 surface acres of water, and anglers can try their luck at catching large and small-mouth bass, crappie, bream, white bass, stripers, and channel or spoon-bill catfish. Just below the dam, the cold waters of the upper White River provide a perfect habitat for pole-bending rainbow and record-size German brown trout. Several trails snake throughout the Ozark Mountains, offering peaceful hiking, biking and wildlife viewing opportunities for visitors. Hunters will find game plentiful in northwest Arkansas. A mixture of hardwood and evergreen forest provides a good home to many different species of wildlife. While Beaver Lake is conveniently located near several population centers, within a short driving distance hunters can find remote areas filled with upland game animals such as deer, rabbits and squirrels. Many other sports and activities await campers, including boating, swimming, picnicking, scuba diving, water skiing, spelunking and sightseeing.
Facilities
Horseshoe Bend Campground has large campsites with plenty of shade and room for activities, and is steps away from the lake shore. Fire rings, picnic areas, drinking water and flush toilets all make for a comfortable camping getaway. There are also three large group picnic areas available, perfect for large parties and family get-togethers.
Natural Features
Towering limestone bluffs, natural caves and a variety of trees and flowering shrubs surround Horseshoe Bend Campground, making it an ideal retreat for outdoor enthusiasts. Beaver Lake and Dam, completed in 1966, was constructed in the White River Basin and boasts 449 miles of beautiful shoreline at the top of the conservation pool. Although the dam was originally built for flood control, hydroelectric power and public water supply, it has also created a popular recreational oasis.

A Wonderful Place For Peace
My wife and I stayed here for three and a half weeks. We moved sites several times due to the demand of incoming campers. Each site was extremely well kept and the wildlife around is flourishing. Each site offers a different view that will take your breath away with each sun rise and sun set. There is only one bath house with showers and a normal toilet but the water pressure is fantastic and the bath houses are clean and taken care of. The staff and rangers are extremely friendly and helpful. We will definitely be back.

Really nice park. Big sites & beautiful views.
We are in site #36, right on the water. Big pine trees & lots of shade. Flat & roomy. Concrete table & crushed rock pad, with nice flat pad for the camper. 30/50 amp, but no water hookups on this loop. There is, however, a drinking water spigot for campers to use to fill their holding tanks...so come prepared to bring drinking water &/or fill your holding tank for flushing, etc. Fantastic view & nice breeze off the water. I'm sure in summer, it'll be really nice to have the water just a few feet away to take a dip. All and all, a really great park. I'm sure as the season picks up into full swing, the sites will be even more maintained & will be in tip top shape. We'll be back.
