Description

National Forest

If you are one of those folks who prefers a different, more rugged camp experience, primitive camping is allowed almost anywhere in the Ozark-St. Francis National Forests unless there is a sign stating otherwise, or it is a wildlife food plot. Located throughout the Forests are areas that have been campsites for many years. These are located along roadsides, trails, mountain tops, or near streams. Camping at dispersed locations have additional responsibilities: "Leave No Trace" so others can have a similar backcountry experience, pack out any trash or litter, scatter campfire ash around so it doesn't pile up, and leave the area better than you found it.

The Ozarks are known for the clear mountain streams, but please filter water before drinking! Beware of stream crossings after heavy rains.

Dispersed Camping at Fishing Spot

Actual location: 35.15604,-93.42697. This site is mostly used for bank fishing on Spring Lake. Its a large loop at the end of a short narrow Forest Road 96001F. The site can accomodate a few rigs - truck camper size and smaller. A truck camper may get pinstripped along the access road. There is a large rock fire ring in the middle of the loop. The area is not level, so leveling youir rig may be needed. The site did have some trash at the time of our visit. The site offers a beautiful view of the lake. Easy walking access to the bank for fishing. No amenities. This site is located within the the Mt. Magazine Wildlife Management Area, and is close to the Spring Lake Recreation Area in the Ozark National Forest.
