We have been coming to Buffalo Point almost yearly since 1997 and we love it here! We camp here and use it as a base to visit surrounding areas. We visit Blanchard Springs, Mountain View, Flippin and Cotter and just take in the scenic views. There is no cell signal while in the campground so it is time you can be completely disconnected.

@SuzySA4CD1866B · Camped on Aug 4, 2024 at Campsite #C41

Overall it was a great trip! Shower house left a little to be desired. Whatever was in the water there burned horribly if it got in your eyes or any cuts/bug bites. Camp sites were clean. A park employee did come speeding by on a lawnmower and sprayed dust/sand/grass clippings allover our campsite and table, luckily we had most of our food put away, but he could have seriously injured my small kids that were playing

@MichaelR189137 · Camped on Jul 6, 2024 at Campsite #B29

The scenery is spectacular. Bring your telescope for some amazing star gazing. No light pollution here.

@DiannYECA5C213 · Camped on Jun 30, 2024 at Campsite #C47

Ease of use is number 1 experience.

@TimA4F19F15ED5 · Camped on Jun 25, 2024 at Campsite #D64

Nice campgrounds, clean bathrooms. Rush Landing was a great place to just hang out and swim the day after our float trip. A 24/7 'Twice the Ice' was only a couple miles away and really made keeping coolers "ice cold" much easier and more convenient! We would definitely recommend Buffalo Point to others!

@AaronM4160322 · Camped on Jun 25, 2024 at Campsite #B29

What a BEAUTIFUL location! We stayed in Loop E, was pretty empty for most of the week. Do note: Loop E doesnt have showers in their bathroom, that was disappointing. Keep in mind, no sewer at your campsites. Great water and electric though.

@DebbieB7118892 · Camped on Jun 23, 2024 at Campsite #C39

I lost my dog the first day there. She was tied up on her leash when I did a quick task and got spooked and bolted breaking the handle she was tied too and fled scared with her leash attached. I went to ask the campground host to help spread the word. The wife said you know theres predators out there that will get her I thought this was a horrible comment to make to someone who just lost their pet family member. He rode by our site and the cooler had gotten knocked over and spilt all out food and drinks scattered around. We had not had time to pickup because we were out looking for her. Every minute counted. She had ran up through the woods and I was so worried her leash would get tangled up in the heavy woods. Later I was driving around and pulled off the ride going down to the river. Instead of leaving my Jeep at my site to save time. He put a warning on my Jeep about not parking there. I felt this was entirely in appropriate knowing that I was out desperately looking for my dog. I had words with him over it and he called the rangers on me and tried to act like I had trashed my campsite. I told him we had had NO time to clean up yet.! I have been camping at the Buffalo River for 55 years!!! Even before if was a National river. Never in that time have I ever encountered such a rude person. Especially someone who is suppose to be there to help the campers and be a good steward. It was a horrific upsetting situation that they made exponentially worse by there lack of compassion for our situation. My pup did not return that night. The next day a sweet ranger named Gidget I believe, spotted my dog Sydney and sat with her with water and treats until they could get a hold of me. THIS is how a true servant behaves. She was selfless in the heat to keep an watchful eye on her not approaching to make sure not to spook her again. I was reunited with Sydney because of her. We were suppose to be there a week, and left early

@DavidM9841724 · Camped on Jun 23, 2024 at Campsite #B34

Nice campground, not to y far of the beaten path. Level spots, nice swimming area

@TinaS5EFEA16F9 · Camped on Jun 20, 2024 at Campsite #D70

Buffalo Point Campground is a great campground. The river close by and is awesome. It's beautiful. I been going for 34 years...it's my happy place. Looking forward to many more trips!!!

@TammyL1493900 · Camped on Jun 16, 2024 at Campsite #B31

The park is nice as always, but needs some improvement, the fire rings are pretty worn out, also a ranger left a note saying to put our fires out before we leave and they poured water all over it. We hadn't had a fire since the night beforeand this was 2:30 the next afternoon when we left for the beach at 2. So wasn't sure what that was about. Also a holiday week/ weekend camping you think the grass between sites would have been cut. Otherwise we like the park and camp there yearly when we can get in.

@TrentMD0AC7339 · Camped on Jun 15, 2024 at Campsite #B33

Wonderful

@RalphR029F1D83 · Camped on Jun 9, 2024 at Campsite #B33

Nice site. The RV length restriction listed was not entirely accurate. We easily put a 32 ft in the space and it could have been a little longer. However- It required a LOT of leveling and may require parking your vehicle several yards away in the public Bathroom parking area. Shady!

@MicheleS458286 · Camped on Jun 2, 2024 at Campsite #D75

Beautiful campground. We loved being so close to the river.

@PaulaVD051171B · Camped on May 30, 2024 at Campsite #D57

Awesome visit...

@JohnN4346623 · Camped on May 19, 2024 at Campsite #C52

Super nice river. Campground is on a beautiful rock beach across the river from a nice cliff face. River is very clear. Showers/bathrooms were excellent. Campground host and rangers were extremely helpful and nice. Super hot and humid. Not much to do after a couple hours kayaking the river. Super far away from everything.

@LorrieM5928846 · Camped on May 17, 2024 at Campsite #B37

Beautiful and loved swimming in the river! It is really difficult to be without cell or WiFi though- we could have taken advantage of much more if we could have gotten information about the area while we were there!

@MelissaH741580 · Camped on May 17, 2024 at Campsite #B23

One of my most favorite places to camp! Easy access to the river & nice swimming areas.

@JoeS9925475 · Camped on May 17, 2024 at Campsite #B28

Great campground, clean well maintained in a scenic location. Had an issue with my truck,host and rangers helped me through it.

@CharlesF612014 · Camped on May 12, 2024 at Campsite #B25

This camping area was OK. The bathroom and shower facilities were moderately clean. Brings lots of DEET spray.

@CourtneyR66270 · Camped on May 10, 2024 at Campsite #B24

If you want to get away from social media and have a good place to relax. This is your place. Absolutely beautiful.

@sumermEB58F664 · Camped on May 8, 2024 at Campsite #C44

This campground is very nice. Lots of the sites are full shade. The Buffalo river is absolutely beautiful here, needless to say. The conservation people at the ranger station are a wealth of knowledge about the trails etc. In the area. There is a restaurant there bit we didnt get to try it. No internet service thou.

@DanD2593905 · Camped on May 3, 2024 at Campsite #C50

The bathrooms are clean the Rangers are super nice but the campground host is very rude are very snobbish there were storms that come through and they shared that information with most guests but skip my campsite and skipped my buddies campsite I just don't understand how someone that rude can be the host

@CindyK2432859 · Camped on Apr 27, 2024 at Campsite #B30

We site indicated that the trails at Buffalo Point were an exception to the no dogs on trail rile, but that was not the case. Almost all trails there were not pet friendly.

@RobertN6611454 · Camped on Apr 22, 2024 at Campsite #B31

Good campground with amenities most campers will need.

@KierstenCECA1D · Camped on Apr 19, 2024 at Campsite #D60

One of our favorite campgrounds in Arkansas. Heavily treed sites, beautiful views and right on the Buffalo river for amazing floating. The only item to be aware of is that if you travel with your pet they can only hike with you on 3 trails. Not really sure why.

Thanks to all our Supporting Members

@BranJen - Santa Clara, CA

I wanted to thank you for this site and especially for the notifications feature. Thanks to your site and my subscription I was able to book a campsite I've been annoyingly trying to book for 5 years unsuccessfully. So thank you.

@Wondering - Oregon

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
