There is a lot of nut trees and chickens!
I inherited this land from my uncles who spent their whole life’s purpose to live and maintain the land. It has given me such peace and a great escape that I think everyone deserves to touch a piece of it to help you in your soul searching or unplugging from life to clear your mind to tackle the world!
I’ve grown up seeing the land change, watching how nature can change streams and hills and love seeing how years and years of leaving it alone can create such a beautiful canvas all on its own.
One of my uncles favorite things to do was to look for arrowheads and if you are familiar with ancient Indian practices, you can find many characteristics in these woods.

We’re new to all this, so here’s the scoop. Our campsite sits on one of our family farms at the top of a hill. The closest neighbor is about 3/4 mile away, and the nearest town with a grocery store is roughly 15 miles out. The camper and tent sites are set where the old homestead house once stood. There’s no water or power, but we have one camper set up with a generator available if needed. We provide a water tank, and there’s also an old well if you’d like well water. You’ll be overlooking 500 acres of river bottom land, with a creek running through it where arrowheads have been found, plus river access for fishing or a bit of kayaking. We’ve got a couple of 4-wheelers you can rent to get to the river, or we can take you down ourselves. Kayaks are also available, and we can even take you upriver so you can float the 8 miles back down to our spot.

Spend your day at Smithville Lake, then return to a peaceful campsite where you won’t hear crowded neighbors - just open space and natural surroundings.
This is not a traditional campground. Sites are intentionally spaced for privacy and simplicity.
The Overlook site is a dry site (no water or sewer), best suited for self-contained setups.

The entire site was laid out very nicely and strategically. The tent sites are placed further back on the backside of the property with privacy and nature, and it was very private and cozy. Nothing but nature sounds at night. A huge plus, the bathrooms were very clean which made the trip that much better!! Would highly recommend. Lot #14 was ours under a large oak tree. A saw lots of amenities on site, check out their site.

Quiet, clean, A/C, fan, and towel hooks. Clean showers and toilets. It was just as described. Respectful fellow campers. Beautiful sunset. Wish we arrived earlier to play volleyball or horseshoes. No shade so be aware if it’s summertime. Five minute drive to peaceful Adam-ondi-Ahman.

Exactly as described. Cabin was clean, basic, had a window A/C unit and a fan. Also appreciated the hooks on the wall we used for our towels, outlets, and the ceiling light. The shared bathrooms and showers were clean. If we had arrived earlier, would have loved the volleyball and horseshoes. Quiet small campground. Not much shade but nice for one night. It was very hot so the A/C unit and fan was wonderful.

Hipcampers be advised: Those reasonable rates you see are for an actual campsite. A brick and mortar business. Not an afterthought on someones acreage or tent in a neighborhood backyard. Honey Grove offers more than enough tent, RV and cabin spaces to accommodate whatever your plans. This includes a meticulously stocked store that has anticipated every camping need, a century old brick silo hosting legendary bonfires, a hotel quality restroom that brings civilization to the outdoors not to mention WiFi and water spigots throughout.
The local town is within ten minutes and has everything you forgot. If not, Walmart is a pleasant twenty minute country drive away. Scott is the camp host who keeps grounds and facilities impeccably maintained and Kristen will happily inform you of the myriad of activities and local lore.
But by far, my most favorite thing about this place is the absolute symphony of birds that welcome both dawn and dusk. Know that twice a day God sends his regards to Honey Grove.

We had a lovely night tent camping at the Maple Forrest Site. JQ is a great host and gave us detailed directions beforehand. I would say a 4WD vehicle is required to drive the 2-track road to this specific camp site! We had no problem getting there with a truck. Our dogs enjoyed being able to run around outside. It was a very peaceful site and was well maintained/mowed. Campfires were permitted and wood was provided which was very generous. Verizon and ATT users were both able to get phone reception just fine at the site. The woods were very beautiful!

The spot was very easy to find, close to main highways and was a good level gravel spot with 30 amp service. Communication with host was easy. We were alone which I appreciated because the spots are close together. We didn’t have a picnic table and there was no fire ring. The water was available but more for filling tanks as it is on the other side of the lot. The Winery was very close and had good food. It was loud at first but quiet after 9pm.

Lots of trails to walk with our dogs. We chose the lower campsite so we would be more
Isolated. There was several places to setup camp and we chose the one furthest to the west. Nice flat areas for tents and trees to setup a shade tarpaulin (mid March so the trees have only buds). We packed in our own water, though there is well water nearby. The road down to the river campsites is not for a car, we have a stock SUV, made it over the one rock section without issue.
The land is beautiful, nice and quiet, other campers were far enough to not even be noticed. We plan to be back again, maybe when the wildflowers are in bloom.

I was looking to get away for a bit to reset. I really wanted to just be alone in a forrest for a while! It was exactly what I hoped for. I had lots of privacy on the river bottoms. I was able to go for hikes and enjoy the night sounds. It was really nice. The host was very helpful. I wasn't sure if I was following the correct path or how far I could go. Keep going! There aren't signs, but just keep going! You will know when you have gotten to just the right spot!

Like an oasis in the desert — so close to town, yet it felt completely remote and peaceful. The drive in on the trail to the campsite genuinely felt like wheeling through the Arkansas wilderness, which made the whole experience even better.
