The Arkansas Department of Natural Resources operates Buckhorn Campground within Lake Greeson Wildlife Management Area, offering five tent sites on a narrow peninsula that extends into the lake. Campers access the area via logging roads through tree farm property, requiring high-clearance vehicles and trailers due to rough conditions that worsen after rain. Sites include pit toilets, picnic tables, fire rings, and pedestal grills at $5 per night with a 14-day limit during the March through October season.
The campground sits directly on the water with mountain views across the lake, though water levels fluctuate seasonally. Cell service runs limited to one bar for Verizon users. For easier access, campers can consider Pikeville Creek Campground less than a mile south.
