Greers Ferry Lake - COE/Cherokee Rec Area

Within the Army Corps of Engineers' Greers Ferry Recreation Area, this hike-in campground operates seasonally from mid-May through early September. The 33 sites split between electric and non-electric options, all requiring a walk from parking areas to reach lakeside positions on Greers Ferry Lake. Sites stay well-shaded and compact, with fire rings and picnic tables standard throughout the property.

Fishing draws many visitors to these water-adjacent sites, with boat ramp access available for launching watercraft. The remote location sits roughly 11 miles from basic supplies in either direction. For campers seeking drive-up access, COE Greers Ferry Lake Old Highway 25 Campground provides an alternative with standard vehicle access.

475 Cherokee Park Road, Greers Ferry, Arkansas
Directions: From Drasco take Highway 92 west 7 miles till Brownsville Road. Turn left, travel 3 miles. Keep up with your mileage as there will not be a sign pointing the traveler to the turn. You will find a small white sign that directs you to Brittany Cove. Turn left. We put the address into the GPS (updated GPS) and it did not find the campground. If you follow the above you will arrive at the campground.

This campground is very rural. I would suggest buying your supplies at the nearest town. Once you arrive at the campground you are about 11 miles to Drasco and Greers Ferry will be about the same distance. Drasco has a small store and service station and Greers Ferry has a small grocery market.

The sites are small but well shaded which is a bonus. Fishing or boating would be the main draw for this location. If you want to enjoy the peace and quiet this is your stop. The view is beautiful with all the water sites.

trout for days

went here on a fishing trip, and i pulled out so many rainbow trouts from this lake! The camp sites are close to the water, and the boat docks are easy to access. this definitely made for a memorable fishing trip, and i guarantee that I will be back!
