Erbie Campground — Buffalo National River
Reviewed Jul. 3, 2023

Average campground but good access to trails and river

Stayed here Memorial Weekend 2023.  Had Site #2, which was large, flat and shady.  Not a lot of privacy, as could see #1 and #3 easily. Also, the group sites were between us and the river, so fair amount of traffic as one of the paths to the group sites is between #2 & #4.  Everyone got quiet in the evening though so not a problem.

The campground was clean with lots of parking. Vault toilets only and they were not stocked regularly, but we had our own toilet paper.  

If you're coming from the west, Apple/Google Maps' shortest route will take you through Kingston and then down some rough dirt roads with a couple low water crossings. Easier route is to go to Hwy. 7 then come back east. Road still isn't great, but better than the other route.

We hiked the Goat Bluff Trail from the campground with a 6 year old who had no problems.  https://btoellner.typepad.com/exploring\_nw\_arkansas/2011/11/old-erbie-area-loop-trail.html

Also floated from Kyles down to Erbie.  Nice short float as water was very low.
