Find Your Perfect Campsite in The Natural State
Experience the best of Arkansas camping, from mountaintop views to lakeside retreats made for tents, campers and RVs.
Arkansas is a camper’s paradise offering everything from secluded backcountry sites to family-friendly campgrounds with full hookups. Pitch a tent beneath the pines at Shores Lake in the Ozark-St. Francis National Forest, settle in at the RV park at the Mena / Ouachita National Forest KOA Journey or relax lakeside at Bull Shoals-White River State Park. For something quieter, set up camp at the Wolf Pen Recreation Area near Cass or along the Cossatot River’s clear banks. With options spread across every region you can find your ideal base for hiking, paddling or simply soaking in the views.
Arkansas campgrounds range from primitive forest sites to modern parks with electricity, hot showers and picnic areas, many welcoming pets too. Spend your days fishing at DeGray Lake, floating the Buffalo National River or exploring the trails near Lake Sylvia Recreation Area. Whether you’re road-tripping in your RV, backpacking under the stars or planning a long weekend in nature, camping in Arkansas offers the perfect mix of comfort, scenery and adventure.
