The best camping near Lake Frierson State Park guide

Overview

About

Dogwoods, fishing, and lazy days spent in Arkansas’ rolling hills are bound to rejuvenate anyone. For the relaxed camp life, head to Lake Frierson State Park, which is perched atop Crowley’s Ridge. Other than fine views of the surrounding landscape, visitors will be awarded with a lake full of tasty fish. Bream, catfish, crappie, saugeye, and bass are ready to fill up your tacos! After lunch, head out on a kayak or pedal boat and watch the magnificent dogwoods bloom throughout the park. At night, choose from a wide variety of campsites and be lulled to sleep by the sound of nature. Now that is what we call a natural recharge!

Notable campgrounds

  • Class B Campsites: These lake view sites feature water and electric hookups, along with convenient amenities like a barbecue grill and picnic table.
  • Tent Sites: For a more rustic experience, the tent sites with no hookups immerse you in the natural splendor of the park.

Tips for snagging a campsite

  • Book early to secure your preferred dates, as the park's serene setting makes it a popular camping destination.
  • Consider visiting during the off-peak season for greater availability and a quieter experience.
  • Keep an eye on cancellations, which can provide unexpected opportunities for last-minute trips.
  • Explore nearby camping options if the park is fully booked, ensuring you don't miss out on the area's natural beauty.

When to go

The best time to visit Lake Frierson State Park is during the peak season from March to November, when the visitor center is open daily and all facilities are available. Off-peak season offers a quieter visit but with limited hours and some amenities closed.

Know before you go

  • Check the weather forecast and pack accordingly to ensure a comfortable visit.
  • Visitor center hours vary by season, so plan your trip to access full services and boat rentals.
  • Remember to bring your fishing gear, as the lake is well-stocked with a variety of fish.
  • Accessibility is a priority, with ADA accessible sites and facilities available.
  • Note that the park is closed on major holidays, so plan your visit around these dates.
