Greers Ferry Lake
Overview
Old Highway 25 Park is located on Greers Ferry Lake in the beautiful Ozark Mountains of north-central Arkansas. The environment provides the ideal location for family camping, fishing, boating and hiking.
Recreation
Greers Ferry Lake is an outdoor enthusiasts' dream, with boating, sailing, water skiing, swimming, scuba diving and fishing opportunities. Hikers enjoy the area's three National Nature Trails and one multi-purpose fitness trail. The William Carl Garner Visitor Center is just west of the dam, with exhibits, a children's touch table, and a replica of the world record 40 lb. 4 oz. brown trout caught in the Little Red River downstream of the center.
Facilities
This campground offers 116 sites, 80 of which have electric hookups. One large non-electric group campsite is available as well. Additional amenities include flush and vault toilets, showers, a dump station, picnic shelter, swimming beach and a boat ramp.
Natural Features
A dense mix of red cedar, black gum, red oak, elm, pecan and sweet gum trees forest the area, providing shade in the summer months and beautiful fall colors in autumn. Wildlife is plentiful around Greers Ferry Lake. Visitors commonly see white-tailed deer, wild turkeys, rabbits, squirrels and a wide variety of birds.
Nearby Attractions
The Greers Ferry National Fish Hatchery, in Heber Springs, located below the dam, offers free tours. Built in 1965, the hatchery produces about one million rainbow trout a year for restocking the Little Red and other Arkansas streams.

Campground is older as most COE camps are but the ones in Arkansas have a great deal of charm and beauty. Sites are mainly shaded with typical forest trees in this area. Wildlife spotting from your campsite is normal. Sites are generally smaller than you will find in a private campground. Check the site sizes to make sure your unit will fit. The sunsets re amazing if you have a water site. Not to mention you could have your own "mini" cliff to jump off on to go swimming. There are even some site where people dock their boats.

Very nicely maintained but very busy at times.
Enjoyed it immensely. Right next to the water. Great views, great breeze. Our campsite was handicap accessible.
Small
We didn’t camp but the campground choices are few and the beach is small. However, it was a great shady place to enjoy with bathrooms.
