Twin Groves

The Best Car Camping Near Twin Groves, Arkansas

A best kept secret!  And one of the most beautiful privately owned campgrounds  in central Arkansas.  We offer riverside camping on the banks of the North Fork of Cadron Creek, a spirited Class II whitewater stream loved by paddlers.  Here you can camp under the stars or under a canopy of towering pine trees or even in a cave. There is swimming, fishing, hiking, climbing, and a Ninja rope course with zipline and slackline, Frisbee golf course. foraging field, and trails for further fun and exploration.   

Now if you are new to camping?  Or hate bugs,  thorns, or wild critters? Or simply don't like being outside and in a primitive setting? Then this is NOT the place!! REPEAT: This is NOT the place!! But if you want to sneak away and find a lovely little place to unwind, commune with nature, and get lost in time, then Pinnacle Springs Campground is where you need to be. 

Here one can camp in total solitude or with friends and family as we have sites that that can perfectly fit nearly every need from open field camps large enough for a family reunion or gathering to a total solitary and traceless "wilderness experience".     

No traffic noise here! Rather, you'll be soothed by the sound of cascading water echoing off the bluffs-- great for outdoor sleeping and keeping the air fresh and alive. Many of the camp sites are equipped with a heavy picnic table, fire pit and grill, lamp post and level tent site. And if you like to swing-- we have trees! Hammocks and slacklines are the best no trace tree thing ever! And although Pinnacle Springs Campground lies in an off-the-grid wilderness setting there is good cell phone service, a water hydrant can be found near the front gate behind the store, and electrical outlets for recharging phones and such can be found on the ridge at nearby Camp Toasty.  Downwind and further from the river is a clean and sanitized porta-potty-- and more can be found elsewhere on the property.

Guests are encouraged to explore any of the trails that criss-cross the property especially if you like waterfalls, scenic views, cascading streams, and goat trail bluffs. The trails to Tanner Pool and Lil' and Big B Falls are especially popular after a heavy rain, Bluff Trail offers a nice perch for viewing the river below, and the 1+ mile"circuit trail" is a great way to start one's day. There is even a 10-acre foraging playground-- oxalis, nettle, ginger, mint, poke, etc., a 1/2 acre fishing pond-- suitable for"storing" any fish you catch but may not wish to clean and eat-- and a nine hole frisbee golf course on the slave-built terraces where cotton fields once laid(first tee near bench by front gate). I could go on and on-- this is a pretty awesome place with hundreds of acres at your disposal. It is rough, rugged and unruly yet we call it home-- a place where everyone regardless race, gender identity, sexual orientation, ability, political views, religion, national origin, or culture is welcomed to come enjoy nature's marvelous works and wonders. Unwind. Kick back. And enjoy! Campsites with electrical hookups are available at nearby Camp Toasty and both properties give you access to the full array of amenities offered by Cadron Creek Outfitters. We also offer kayak and canoe rental, guide and shuttling service, and have four separate campgrounds on the banks of Cadron Creek to support multi-day paddling adventures.  
  
Only three rules:  

IMPORTANT RULE #1: This is a no trash park-- pack out what you pack in! Leave nothing but footprints, take nothing but some great memories and photos.

IMPORTANT RULE #2: This is DIY camping!! We love welcoming people to the creek but we are not here to pander to your every whim so if primitive wilderness settings give you pause or concern then please, please, please camp elsewhere.

LASTLY-- MOST IMPORTANT RULE #3:  Be kind and considerate.  To one another, to the stewards of the land, and most especially to the flora and fauna and land that makes Pinnacle Springs Campground special.   Thus NO saws, axes or shovels.  

Other than that no other rules except:  Have Fun!

Pinnacle Springs Cabin

Sitting above the Arkansas River you have an excellent view of the river from two vantage points. With a large almost 2 acre clearing there is plenty of room to roam. Magical sunsets and more stars than you can count! When it's a full moon, you can watch it coming up through the trees as you are sitting in front of the fire. If you are really lucky, sometimes you can watch the searchlight from the river barges as they navigate the big bend in the river. If you are a nature lover this place has it all.

We try to keep firewood stocked at the sites, but sometimes it gets used up before we can restock. If that is the case there is TONS of deadwood all around the site. If it's on the ground it's fair game. We only ask that you don't take down live trees. You guys know the deal, we all love the trees so let's show them some love, cool? If you find there is no wood around, give us a ring and we will do our best to get some to you.

Navigate to the entrance here (tinyurl.com/ArkRiverOverlook) and you will find the main entrance to both sites:

**Site 1 (tinyurl.com/OverlookSite1)(34.949993, -92.569705) (NOTE: THIS SITE IS UNAVAILABLE AT THE MOMENT)**

The first of the two sit at the top of the hill as you enter Rock Island road (this is the name on old county maps). The narrow entrance is just to the left, right before you start to head down the hill. It's a bit of a tight squeeze for anything larger than a full-size pickup truck. Secluded, with stupendous views of the river and Lollie Bottoms on the other side. If you have a pair of binoculars you can watch the farmers working the fields and count all the cows over in the bottoms. This site has an 8'x8' deck where you can pitch a tent or just set up some chairs and sit under the stars. Just above the platform is a small area that has been leveled for a small camper, that measures approximately 12' x 6' in total. There is also a cabin in the works, so if the weather is really bad you can get in it and out of the rain. But be warned, it's a metal building so it's LOUD when it's raining. Eventually, this will be a fully furnished cabin with AC, shower, queen size bed, etc.

NOTE: Only small campers (like small popups) can fit on this site. It cannot support campers taller than \~10 feet or longer than \~18 feet. If you want to use a camper PLEASE contact us ahead of time so we can ensure you won't have any issues.

**Site 2 (tinyurl.com/OverlookSite2)(34.951358, -92.569561)**

Is located near the bottom of the road but actually has two views of the river. It is very secluded and a little more concealed, which can be good on hot days as there are more trees for coverage. There are a lot more trees on this site so if you don't want to be out in the open this is the one for you. The canopy protects you from the sun so your tent doesn't get too hot during the day.

NOTE: Site 2 can only support tents and small popups.

Both sites will allow for multiple vehicles to be parked, so no problem there. If you bring any vehicles please do not ride them on the property as they damage the grass, there are lots of good off-road riding to be had in the area.

If you have 4wd, then find your way to the Million Dollar lookout (tinyurl.com/MillionDollaView). It's been a favorite lookout for years, and I promise it will not disappoint!

If you have 4wd or at least a vehicle with decent clearance you can head down to the end of the road (tinyurl.com/DownByTheArkRiver). At the end of Ledwedge Rd, it becomes an unmaintained road that goes all the way down to the river and crosses the railroad tracks. If you are really lucky you will get to see a train pass by, up close and personal. The road is pretty rocky so be warned, you really do need clearance on this road!

If you want to fish on Lake Maumelle go to North Shore Landing (tinyurl.com/NorthShoreLanding), it's only 5.8 miles from the property. North Shore Landing on Lake Maumelle is a beautiful short hike to the edge of the lake, surrounded by wildlife and greeted by an amazing view of the lake. Set up a picnic and just hang out and fish!

A little further and you will come to Crossroads Food Mart convenience store. They have gas, food, and beverages (some alcoholic ones too), ice, etc. They can even make a pizza that you can go and pick up if you are in the mood! They have everything you need to make for a perfect camping trip. If you want to come to pick up the pizza just call ahead! (tinyurl.com/CrossRoadsFoodMart)

The Rock Island railway is down below next to the river and there are plenty of trails you can ride around on as well. You aren't far from two National Forests so day trips from here are a breeze.

If you are into gardening or local farm-to-table cuisine you should check out Moss Mountain Farm.

Toadsuck Lock and Damn park are about 30 minutes away, and if you need a big Walmart there is one 10 minutes past that. There is also a big Walmart about 30 minutes in the other direction at the intersection of Chenal Parkway and Cantrell Road.

And if you like hiking and climbing then you cannot miss Pinnacle Mountain State Park! Climb to the top and get the best views in all the area, 360 degrees views up there. And if you want something a little less steep, the Kingfisher trail at the bottom makes a nice gentle loop next to the Little Maumelle river where you can see absolutely GIANT cypress trees. Also, the Ouachita National Recreation Trail (tinyurl.com/OuachitaNRT) passes just 5 miles from our place, and it loops around the entire north side of Lake Maumelle. There is a trailhead and parking near North Shore Landing.

There is plenty of mountain biking in the area too. Here's a link to some of the trails: mtbproject.com/directory/8007059/pinnacle-mountain-state-park-monument-trails

There is something for everyone here!



Sunsets on the Arkansas River Site

Come experience the awe that we get to experience daily. The river is in our backyard and we want to share our slice of heaven with you.

The river is a place for relaxation, as well as being a great place to fish or just hang out with friends. The river also provides an opportunity for learning about nature and wildlife.

The sound of birds is one of the most beautiful sounds on Earth. It is a sign of life, it is a sign of hope. Birds are plentiful along the river and you are sure to enjoy the concert that they have prepared specially for you.

There's no need to drive too far from Little Rock – in fact, you can find a great campsite just across the Arkansas River from P. Allen Smith's famous Moss Mountain farm. This spot is teeming with wildlife, and you may even be able to catch some fish or watch Eagles soar. Stargazing is strongly encouraged here – under a dark sky, the stars appear big and bright.

Please enjoy your stay and help us keep it that way.

No parties and no unsupervised minors.

We are in the country and there are no fences. You may be greeted by neighborhood dogs. We have never experienced any aggression and most of them are happy to get pet by our guests. If they are bothering you, simply provide a stern, "go home" and they usually will leave you be. On the other hand if you pet and feed them they will be your new best friend.

We host on the dyrt because we love the outdoors. We love traveling across the country, exploring, and experiencing new things. We are fortunate enough to have found our slice of heaven and we're so excited to share it with other travelers from near and far. It often becomes an opportunity to hang out with like minded people and make new friends.
