"Camped near the river and had a wonderful time exploring the off-road trails near the area."
"This is one of the best campgrounds in Arkansas. Dog friendly"
"Access to Spy Rock trail, but the vast amount of cobwebs made it seem like it’s not used much."
"Drinking water is available at spigots near the swimming hole.
There is a downside here, though, and it's a big one: horseflies."
$15 - $215 / night
"Located beyond a perfectly canopied gravel road and surrounded by miles of mostly uninhabited forests White Rock Mountain has been the most delightful treasure of 2016."
"The views, as other reviewers have said, are impressive and the Rim Trail is worth doing any time of day and any season."
$27 - $30 / night
"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."
"I was looking for a quiet, small campground with minimal amenities and cool features that was driving distance to good hikes. This was perfect. Only six spots."
"Traffic drives right by the sites to explore the campground and must drive back past all the sites. Very good sized sites and probably very private (besides the road) once the leaves full in."
$30 - $100 / night
"Near the Mulberry River and White Rock recreation area, the facility is an off road enthusiasts playground! Trails directly into the outback from the facility."
"It's a great escape for off-roading and overloading. Be sure to stop by the Oark Cafe in Oark, Arkansas, which is a 25-minute drive from the campground."
$20 / night
"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."
$20 / night
"Devil's Den is a gorgeous parked tucked in the mountains of Arkansas. The primary campground for RVs is one of the better campgrounds I have seen. The facilities and amenities have been great. "
"The trails are great and our campsite had a path right down to the river. The water hookup was a bit tricky, it leaks all over the place until you turn it all the way."
"A downed tree blocks part of the view, but still has a beautiful panoramic view of the surrounding mountains."
"There are walking trails, with Spy Rock a short distance away."
"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."
ScoutRight 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.
ScoutCan’t beat the view from the entire campsite
ScoutMy wife and I camped here and road our dirt bikes out the next morning. You can drive right up to your campsite, this is on private property. There are several tent spots and also 3 cabins, small medium and large. There is a big hangout spot with a big fire place and chairs already set up, it also has 2 big overhead lights so you’re not completely in the dark. They also have a restroom available for anyone with showers! Everything was very neat inside and out! The owners of the place are absolutely great!! The Buckhorn trails run right through there property. I HIGHLY SUGGEST THIS CAMPSITE!!!
GuideNo toilets/showers/dumpsters/ trash cans.
Various camp sites along a dirt road, that my AWD Equinox made it fine. Just go slow, as there are some ruts from previous rains.
There are various outfitters along the way to the dirt road. So you don’t have to go too far if you forgot something.
The camp I’m at has the land cleared fairly well of grasses and such.
The others further down the road are for one vehicle type camps with longer grass.
There are walking trails, with Spy Rock a short distance away.
TravelerAux Arc Park is a beautiful little campground with large sites on the water. Just here overnight, so no time to explore but will be back
GuideThis US Forest Service campground has 9 sites, no reservations as far as I could tell. Beautiful little lake for fishing, kayaking or taking a drip. Asphalt camping pads suitable for up to < 30' trailers. No services other than pit toilets. Nice clean, shady camp spot. Was quiet during the week days. Four spots backup to the lake.
ScoutIt was one of the most peaceful campgrounds I have ever been in! Short hiking trail will lead you to the most gorgeous views! You can even do a little rock climbing here. Please keep pets on a leash. Pit toilets are available at each end of the campgrounds.
Scout100% of Wildlife Management Areas in the state of Arkansas require a Hunting license or WMA camping permit purchased though Arkansas Game and Fish.
WMA Regulations are very easy to find on the AGFC website. Know the seasons and be courteous. There is pretty much at least one open hunting season from September each year through the following May.
There is only a handful of sites spread throughout the WMA and you can only camp in those designated by the game and fish. This isn’t the national forest, you can’t just pull off and camp anywhere you please.
TravelerWe were in Bentonville, Arkansas and decided to take a gamble on this and it was about 40 minute drive when we got there. There was plenty of space for the dog to roam without getting into high grass where ticks would be festering and it was a sweet little private getaway for a night before driving on. We highly recommend. Starlink didn't work but Verizon did for phone calls only.
