Tent

3 nights at Beaver Lake / Rocky Top

I had a wonderful stay. It was quiet, peaceful, and had a beautiful view. Deer ran through the area and a beaver even swam alongside me as I was relaxing on the paddle board in the lake. Sheila was super accommodating, letting me borrow the kayaks, paddle boards, and even the screened in porch due to the rain. She was also quick to respond when I had any questions. The site is also close enough to enjoy many of the attractions around Eureka Springs making it a convenient way to enjoy both the town and nature.

Weekend Trip to Hot Springs Finish Line RV Park

Absolutely perfect site! Excellent hosts, beautiful clean property. Extremely easy to find, get around, and really a 12 out of 10.

Weekend Trip to Hot Springs Finish Line RV Park

The place was quiet a nd peaceful but the BEST part of the place are the BATHROOMS! We've never been in such a nice laundry/bath house while camping. If there is one small problem it's that there are only 2 of those wonderful bathrooms :).

1 night at Thunder Mountain Private River Camp

Absolutely lovely stay at thunder mountain. They have thoughtfully provided every necessity and even most luxuries you wouldn't expect in the Backcountry. My wife and I loved the bathhouse, what a unique addition to an already perfect cabin getaway. Thank you!

Weekend Trip to Happy Hippy Acres Wooded Wonderland

It's secluded with lot of lush woodsy scenery. Amazing stargazer opportunities amid campfire gatherings. Lots of space. My family of 5 loved it! Jerry and Jill were great hosts and communicated exceptionally.

Weekend Trip to Grassy Road Cabins and RV Camping

Excellent campground. Amazing little bath house! Beautiful layout and scenery. Everything was absolutely perfect. Will visit again for sure.

Weekend Trip to Hot Springs Finish Line RV Park

After driving from KC we very much liked the new concrete pad and new hookups very much I recommend it

Weekend Trip to Bluegill Hill

It was great! We had a great time and didn't experience any issues. The listing is very descriptive and accurate to the site.

Weekend Trip to Pea Ridge Bike Camp

Great place to camp out for a night! Well manicured and nice owners. Highly recommend!

4 nights at Pea Ridge Bike Camp

Pea Ridge bike camp is a perfect spot. Damon goes out of his way to make sure you have as many of the comforts of home while camping. Electricity, running water, clean bathrooms, warm showers, fire wood, a common area with gas grill and shaded table. I had a youth group of 24 boys and 7 adults and it was an awesome week. Couldn’t ask for more from a host. Would highly recommend!

1 night at Hot Springs Finish Line RV Park

Wonderful place to stay! We arrived really late and were still kindly greeted by the host and welcomed to our site. Place was so well maintained, immaculate bathroom/shower facilities. Would definitely stay here again!

2 nights at Thunder Mountain Private River Camp

We absolutely loved our stay at Todd's place! It was everything we wanted it to be and more. It was beautiful and peaceful. We enjoyed a great hike around the property, swam in the beautiful river, and then enjoyed a warm shower outside. Todd was a very welcoming and responsive host. We will definitely be back in the future. Thank you for sharing your amazing place with us.

1 night at Beaver Lake / Rocky Top

Beautiful property! Lots to explore! If you are looking for dispersed camping this checks the box.

1 night at Bluegill Hill

Our host was wonderful, this place is amazing. Definitely recommend staying here

1 night at Tents on Lake Atkins

Great spot to set up camp for the night! Bradley was a very responsive host.

4 nights at Hot Springs Finish Line RV Park

Great host, great location, and great amenities. We will definitely be back!!!

Weekend Trip to Hot Springs Finish Line RV Park

I loved my camping here. The place was so calm and peaceful yet everything you want is less than 5min away. The hosts were very friendly and understanding. I would love to stay here again. Be mindful that they don’t allow car camping per city restrictions and i completely missed it but Stacey is very understanding and let us camp in the car.

Weekend Trip to Sacred Pines

Beautiful campsite and property. We loved sleeping and hanging out next to the pond. Wished the site was a little more private though, and the sound from highway traffic could be heard pretty clearly. Otherwise, we had a great time!

The Buffalo Farm

2 sites · Lodging500 acres · Marshall, AR

Ratchford Buffalo Farms is nestled in the heart of the Ozarks on roughly 500 acres. Where our Buffalo, Cattle and other animals graze in the meadows and fields and roam the hills and hollows and drink from 11 free flowing springs. My family has lived in these parts for over 150 years ever since my great grandfather settled here from Georgia. This land has been used for may things. From raising cotton, corn, hogs, cattle and at one time my family was one of the largest strawberry producers in the state and always raised a large vegetable garden. I can still remember my daddy plowing this ground with a big black team of mules. For the past 20 years we have raised Buffalo. But the commitment has always been the same. Taking the time to help your neighbor, even if he does not ask. Keeping your word, a man is only as good as his word . Treating people fairly and with respect, if you can not respect others you can not respect yourself. And for each generation to leave the land in better shape than when you started farming it.
