Best Equestrian Camping near Mammoth Spring, AR

$10 per night, firewood, ice, and more amenities on site.  The owner is so nice.  His dog Lil' Dan also slept with me.  There is a horse next to the camp sites and it's just so beautiful.  Float launches from the campground, so convenient.  Close to Grand Gulf, Greer Spring, Mammoth Spring, and right on beautiful highway 19.  I will be back soon!

If you want to see the wild horses of Shannon County, this is the place to stay.  Right on the Jack's Fork, so beautiful.  New bathrooms, but everything else is primitive.  Equestrian sites down the road in both directions.  $10 a night!

This small campground on the banks on the beautiful Jacks Fork River features a pit toilet, lantern post, fire rings and picnic tables. There is no water or electric available. It is located down a short well-maintained Gravel Road. This campsite sees very light usage except on weekends in June July and August. It provides Wade fishing in the Jacks Fork River as well as canoe access. The fee at the time of this review was $5 per night with 50% off with senior pass. It is located along Shawnee Creek. Do too many horse camps located Upstream on this Creek there is an advisory 4 E coli contamination. The sights and turn around would not be appropriate for larger RVs.

Great place to rent canoe or raft, the owner has ran this place since I was a little kid , very great people

This is a great place to start your 11 point river trip! Stop here to rent your canoes or kayaks and get dropped off wherever. You can drive to Greer Spring that is a spring that comes out of a cave. It was in Backpacker Magazine as well. This has been my favorite river to float down so far. I’d suggest making the trip without kids the first time to judge your skill level. It’s a bit fast and deep at the beginning. Lots of stopping points on this river. Very scenic.

We stayed here to utilize their shuttle services for kayaking the 11 point. It was the week before the Memorial Day holiday and we had the place to ourselves! There are bathrooms available and hot showers, awesome people to chat with and a cool dog named Dan. We stayed in the primitive camping section but were informed there are also cabins available. Our site was just what we needed with a Rim fire pit and a couple of picnic tables. Richards definitely catered to us as we decided at the last minute to take another float and they jumped right in and made it happen for us. The convince of having your own vehicle waiting for you after a long day of floating is worth every dime you pay for it! I would highly recommend Richards for their shuttle services and camping area.

Great place to go primitive if the weather is right and no matter the weather, the water is beautiful. Our favorite time to go is in the fall when the leaves begin to change. The water may be chilly, but the views and the fishing are perfect. I highly suggest this place, but I do suggest lots of bug spray. For some reason, I always get eaten up by mosquitos in this area.

This is a very comfortable and welcoming campground. It provides a great sense of privacy but also community. The camp hosts are very helpful and friendly. I hiked from McCormack Lake to here, which is only about 4 miles (unfortunately, though, some of the trail is quite overgrown.) However, most people just park at their campsite. Whatever you chose for your adventure, you’re sure to enjoy your stay. Highly recommended.

Greer spring is right down the road and is wrll worth the hike!
