Best Campgrounds near Mountain View, AR

Right on the river with both a rock and sand beach currently. Fire rings. Only one other camper that’s at the other end of the campground on memorial weekend. Vault toilets. Good Solar.

I love staying here but for monthly rent at 490 you get just water and sewage hookups and the back of the office building had 1 shower and a laundromat with only 1 dryer and 1 washer.. which can be aggravating at times of heavy traffic needing to use those amenities. The dial up internet is basic and does go in and out alot... and not to mention the groundskeeper ain't very pleasant but you hardly ever see him doing his grounds keeping work until every other weekend it seems and that's just to mow, weedeat, and blow the leaves and grass away.

Went on a hike of the short Panther Bay trail today.  Very disappointed to have two felled trees across the trail.  My wife and I are in our 80's and it was very difficult to navigate around both trees into the dense forest on either sides.  To top it all off, I'm one who does pay an annual $40 fee to the ACofE just so I don't have to suffer fallen trees. Yes, the tree looked down from last fall.  This trail is for our age group and folks over 65, and of course children. NOT right now though.

The campground is nice. The grounds are unkept this year. The grass is already tall and when we asked about it we were told it’s only getting taller. The grass will not be cut at all this year. Bring your weed eater or mower I guess.

Our first time here. It is beautiful! Quickly becoming one of our favorites. We are in site 13 right on the water! But be warned if you are not proficient in backing your camper sites 10-13 are probably not the best choice. You have to back down a hill quite a ways. This really is a beautiful well taken care of campground! You will not be disappointed

Stopped there for a night. Not an unpopular area with locals, I spoke to several over the 24hrs I stayed here. Good pull off area with room for 3-5 "sites. A few established "dispersal" spots to use. Was able to comfortably pull my 4runner in and car camp comfortably for a night right next to the Buffalo river and between 2 fresh water streams feeding into it. Well worth the stop. Beautiful area!

Great little campground. Please read description before coming or don't whine when you get here. No electricity, hot showers and water available close. Quiet and close to the river.

The campground in nestled in the Buffalo National River Wilderness offering many options on the river or hiking the mountains and bluffs.  There are several river access spots throughout the campground. 

There are floating outfitters in the area that will drive you up river to float back down toward the campground.

The bathrooms are on the smaller side, but the showers were clean.

Blue Heron cabin was awesome! It was so so clean, and beautiful! Over looking the water can’t get any better! The cabin was so nice! Michael was great to work with and very professional and very nice! Can’t wait till next time ❤️
