"The sign said "campground full" but thanks to another review we disregarded this and found an open site, as did the person who drove in behind us."
"Pros: Great location on the river and close to plenty of hiking trails! Each campsite has a picnic table and fire ring. The bathrooms were well maintained and there is drinking water available."
"This small State Park just outside Huntsville Arkansas has many amenities. Family friendly handicap accesible. I has 30 tent Rv and walk in tent camping."
"This is one of our favorite ‘close to home’ campsites. It’s about an hour out of Northwest Arkansas.
All of the trails are very nice to hike, even for our little ones."

"During that time try and get a site away from the launch/takeout spots. "
"A real bob Ross of a campground, however the drive down the Arkansas hill to this serene location is a tense frustrating and should not be attempted with a real wheel drive or low profile vehicle."
$20 / night
"There’s lots of campground near by but across a bridge is hidden off road that will take you to Carwash Falls. It has a great scenic off road trail and backroad highway."

"Less than a minute from the Kings River Falls Trail-head, and nestled alongside the headwaters of the Kings River in Venus Arkansas."
"It is one of the most beautiful spots in Arkansas. Highly recommend."
TravelerRight off the main road (you can still hear the traffic, but it's not a lot of traffic)
There's a fire pit, some paths to a hiking spot. I don't think a bus would fit but my 21ft. van was mostly a tight fit.
A good public land spot with just enough space for two car campers
ScoutNice, easy and quiet with a great pool and lake access! We will definitely be coming back. Site 47 has a bit of sun
ScoutWe had camping site A, which is right on Lake Taneycomo. Sites are very large with full hookups. The resort has a nice pool and laundry facilities you can use. We stayed for 21 nights in July of this year. You are about a 20 minute drive to Branson and 5 minutes to Forsyth. We were in a 33 foot motorhome with a boat trailer and a truck also on the site and there was plenty of room. Laura was very good to deal with. She gets back to you promptly.
ScoutNo primitive camping sites.
ScoutWe have recently moved our tiny home to this lovely quiet family-owned park. They are open to more fulltime residents and are tiny home friendly. There are no resort-type features. But, there is bath house with laundry and gorgeous tree shaded lots on gravel drives with full utilities. Outside of Yellville, AR there no restrictions against tiny home living. A fourth generation country grocery store is about two miles away and includes a real butcher shop and fresh produce. A Walmart, full service hardware store and the fishing paradise of Bull Shoals Lake(with the only remaining operational ferry in Arkansas) make this a great location to retire. No highway noise but close to Branson with the Ozark mountains all around you make it the spot for us.
TravelerWe only saw one other couple there the whole time we were there, it was clean, taken care of, had restrooms, tables, and firepits at several sites. It was beautiful! Secluded, need bug spray, worth the ride out but no cell service at all!
TravelerThis place is great! We stayed in one of the platform huts and it was extremely clean. We stayed in the middle of July and the AC was turned off when we arrived but within a few hours the hut was completely cooled down which was awesome. Kids loved running around in the well-kept open areas and playing frisbee golf. The bathrooms were EXTREMELY clean..like spotless which isn’t always expected at a camp ground. The store is also a plus and has just about everything you might need if you forgot anything. Overall an A+ experience for relatively new campers with small children. We will definitely be back.
RangerLoved the location as we had tickets to the clay cooper theatre and could actually walk to the show each night! The sites were gravel and mostly level. Some sites had shade and each had a picnic table. There was a couple of fenced dog areas. One was in full sun most of the day and was small, but a nice area to allow them off lead to smell and do business. Lots of poop bag stations all over the park. The park was a little difficult to just walk as it has some steep hills. But my dog and I decided to take early morning strolls on the Main Street since we were so close. At 6:30 am there was very little traffic and the weather was nice for a good walk. We loved it. The bath house was clean although small. The pool was very nice and never crowded. The laundry facility was very clean and had several machines. $1.25 to wash and $2 to dry. Everyone was extremely nice and helpful in the office. We plan to be back to Branson and this is our go to campground now!
TravelerThe people who run it are great! It's a clean place, nice playground, pretty lake. Will definitely be back!
