Best in Arkansas: 2nd place

Named one of the best Hipcamps to visit in 2023.

One of Arkansas' greatest treasures. Less than a minute from the Kings River Falls Trail-head, and nestled alongside the headwaters of the Kings River in Venus Arkansas. This is a remote and rugged campground with caves, bluffs, swimming holes and river a plenty. This campground has a grand exhibition of the same sandstone formation that is responsible for the Whitaker Point (Hawksbill Crag) formation. Clovis like points have been found here, and so one might assume the bluffs and crags here have been inhabited for millennia. This 7 acre property is completely surrounded by Arkansas Natural Heritage-Natural Area. There are miles of trails and cooling waters at every turn. If you like Kings River Falls, get ready to fall in love with this Red Fern Campground. So pack your curiosity, lace up your hiking boots, and let the whispering leaves guide you. Kings River Falls awaits, ready to share its secrets with those who listen. Where time slows down and the modern world fades away. Every turn reveals a new wonder; a hidden waterfall an unnoticed cave or bluff or a moss-covered boulder. It’s not just a place; it’s an experience an invitation to step beyond the ordinary and into a world where magic still thrives and fairy tales come alive. Here, the forest whispers secrets, and the river sings a timeless song. Most of our campsites are just yards away from a public swimming area, which is shared between our property and the Arkansas Natural Area. You should expect local traffic at the main swimming area during your stay. We have a private swimming area on our property which is just a short hike from the developed campsites (Please ask the camphost for directions). There are miles of county maintained bumpy dirt roads leading to the site. Expect your vehicle to get dusty. There is a creek crossing that is required to reach the campsites. We recommend high clearance and/or 4WD or AWD vehicles. If you are unable to cross the creek, you will need to park in the parking area and walk across the creek to reach your site.

Kings River Falls Glamping A

Fun glamping in real nature!

The glamping set up had a lot of great amenities like water, campfire cooking pans and utensils, chairs, hammocks, tables and more! The site was lovely with swimming holes and beautiful views driving in. This is a very rural area with gravel/rocky roads so smaller cars/2WD cars may have some trouble. I was able to make it to the site with a small hatchback but for anyone using Google Maps I’d recommend not taking a “shortcut” with a county road and try sticking to state hwys until reaching an entrance to the site that has a shorter county road distance.

Site 4 - Kings River Falls Camping

Great spot!

We really enjoyed camping at site 4 on Sam and Michelle's land. I felt like it was the perfect spot because it was really shady and covered us from the early morning sun, allowing us to sleep in a little longer than if the sun was hitting our tent. We enjoyed the hiking and the water holes were a great way to cool off. Crossing the creek with the vehicle was a little scary but we made it in and out safely. That would probably be the only improvement that we would recommend so the campers can get to the site safely. We enjoyed our time there and would definitely come back again and do it over.
