Calico Camp

1 site · RV1 acre · Calico Rock, Izard

Calico Camp is a lovely, shady spot on private property about 2 miles from Calico Rock Main Street and the White River. Rich in history and great fishing. Bring your kayak. Or, you can rent one in town. I moved here in 2016 from Atlanta, Georgia. I actually lived in an RV in a beautiful park for several years there. And, loved it! I thought I was going to do that here, but changed my mind when I found this sweet little house on a couple of acres. Deer visit us, and bunnies make their homes here. I have cats and dogs of my own. I work at the Calico Rock Museum and invite you to visit us. We have a wonderful Heritage Center and a gallery/gift shop with works of art created by local artisans. Learn more about this land: Nice, private, shady. Easy to get to from Hwy. 56. About 2 miles from the White River and Main Street Calico Rock. Turn from Hwy. 56 can be tricky for big rigs because of a ditch at Jones Street. Left hand turn is easier than right hand turn. You can use the parking lot across the street to help you back your rig into the campsite. We have permission from the owner to do that. There is room for your boat, too. Pets are welcome. Close to grocery, bank, gas. The White River is famous for it’s trout fishing. Deer hunting in the area, too. (Not on this property.)

Current River Luxe Tent Mark Twain

3 sites · Lodging3 acres · Doniphan, Ripley

Welcome to our newly constructed luxury tent that sits on 3 tranquil acres nestled in a holler. While this unique space is the perfect private getaway for you and the family, its location makes it easy for you to get around. You are only: 1 min to Current River 1 min to Mark Twain 5 min to Doniphan 27 min to Ripley Lake Every aspect of this tent has been thoughtfully constructed to furnish you with all of the creature comforts of home in an outdoor experience. While our luxury tent is equipped to house 4 people, we think that the perfect group size is 2 (plus a child). We're happy to host all 4, but keep in mind that it will be a little cozier. Especially for whoever draws the short straw and ends up on the 3/4-sized futon. Is that a cloud you're sleeping on? No silly, that's just our lavish queen-sized memory foam mattress! Drift off into serene bliss to the sounds of hoot owls, whippoorwills, spring peepers, crickets, and many other nighttime critters. If we just had David Attenborough, you'd think you were in an episode of BBC's Planet Earth. Sure, eating out at great restaurants is super fun, but sometimes we need a home-cooked meal. Our kitchen (indoor and outdoor) is stocked with all of the essential utensils and dinnerware to exercise your culinary prowess. Get your Gordon Ramsey on! Just make sure you can do it in a toaster oven or on a propane grill. ;) The open-concept area includes a queen-sized bed, dresser, propane "fireplace", kitchenette (toaster oven, coffee maker, mini-fridge, sink, and cooking gear), and a futon couch with coffee table. Keurig coffee maker, coffee, creamer, and sugar will be provided.

Woodhill Ridge, Salem Arkansas

2 sites · RVs13 acres · Salem, Fulton

We are ready to host you and your RV on six peaceful acres of a 12 acre parcel on the edge of Salem, AR city limits. We are right between somewhere and over there, not far from the whatchamacallit (which closes at 5 p.m. and is never open on Sundays). We are located on the bluff of the South Fork of the Spring River. Just across the bridge is public land that has an access point for small boat launching. This river is wadable. Throw a lawn chair in and bring your favorite beverage and sit and soak up the sun. Choose from three available sites – each with at least 30 yards from its nearest neighbor. No water, sewer or electric at sites. Generators welcome. Run it all night if you want. Water is available to fill your fresh water tank for a $5.00 fee. We do have a way you can dump your tanks, but could be tricky for some rigs. There is a $5.00 fee for that as well. Fire ring and picnic table included at each site. Feel free to gather fallen branches for fire wood if you didn’t bring your own. No cutting from trees permitted. We do have occasional burn bans in the area during hot and dry spells, but generally it's in the very midst of summer if a ban does occur. We are pet friendly, but if your pet is not friendly, we ask that you keep it leashed; otherwise, they are free to roam (we cannot be responsible for runaways). Your pet should never be unattended or allowed to infringe upon a neighbor. We are located 18 miles from the MUST-SEE Mammoth Springs and 25 miles from Henderson/Norfork Lake. Both great for a day trip. Salem is in Fulton County – a dry county. BYOB! If you need to go for a beer run, you are looking at a 17 mile trip to Bootleggers, or an 11 mile trip to Barker’s Hilltop Package Store. While you’re here, don’t forget to make a cameo appearance on Critter Cam! We look forward to seeing you.
