What to do
Fishing access: Trout fishing is available near Mountain View RV Park and Guest Motel, located about 45 minutes from Heber Springs. "Weekends will find pickers on the square or concerts at the Ozark Folk Center. If you want to take a dip look to the creeks or the river. Stand up paddle boarding, canoe, kayak, Loco Ropes, mountain bike trails, hiking, antiquing, trail rides, fishing and I'm sure you get the idea."
Historic downtown exploration: Nearby Mountain View offers unique cultural experiences within walking distance of Whitewater RV Park. "The town square is only 1/4 mile away. A nice park for walking is next door. They also have laundry facilities and great Wifi! What's not to love?" Another camper noted, "Mountain View is a great small town in the Arkansas Ozarks. This is not the place to come if you have to be entertained but can make your own fun or settle back and relax."
Water recreation: Fairfield Bay RV Campground & Marina provides direct lake access. "The Fairfield Bay/Greers Ferry lake area in general is my heaven on earth, and this marina/campground is smack dab in the middle of it. The marina has a very nice, well stocked shop with a little cafe around the corner. I remember one of my favorite things when I went there as a child was when they'd give me a bag of fish food to throw to the massive catfish off the dock."
What campers like
Peaceful surroundings: Campers at Golden Pond RV Park appreciate the natural features. "The true highlight was the small trail to the turquoise pond.

Well-maintained facilities: Many Heber Springs area campgrounds prioritize cleanliness. At Mountain View RV Park, campers report "concrete pads or gravel, 30 and 50 amp service, full hook ups, cable tv, wi-fi, high speed for extra fee, coin operated laundry, community fire pit with wood provided, dog friendly, showers and toilets and more."
