Primitive camping
Best for self-contained campers. There are no toilets, showers, or potable water at this Hipcamp.
We have many private lots around the forest for you to stay to explore the Illinois river, and many bike trails open all year around. The mountain bike trails and white water rapids are great for all skill levels and are located about 2 miles from the river and trails. WOKA has 8 low-hazard whitewater features, seasonal rentals, shop and concessions, and shaded viewing. Changing facilities and restrooms are on-site at woka and mountain bike trails are nearby. We also have the Arrowhead speedway nearby in West Siloam.Sitting in the middle of an 850 acre wildlife preserve, you will have plenty of privacy to enjoy a getaway in the woods without being disturbed by other campers. This site is relatively flat and easy to access on the edge of a field along the tree line of the forest. You may notice old stone chimneys standing throughout the woods where cabins once stood, back when Lake Frances was a resort area in the 1920s. On this primitive camp site, we have a Micro Cottage that is wired for a generator (not provided) that sleeps 2, or bring your own tent and enjoy the view of the stars. We have several private lots sprinkled throughout the forest preserve for you to camp, explore the Illinois River, hike, or enjoy the bike trails open all year round. The mountain bike trails and white water rapids are great for all skill levels and are located down river, at Woka White Water Park, about 2 miles west from this camp site. The Siloam Springs Kayak Park is located up river on Fisher Ford Rd, and has access for swimming and tubing. As of right now this site is primitive with no bathroom. WOKA white water park has 8 low-hazard whitewater features, seasonal rentals, a shop and concessions stand, along with shaded viewing. Changing facilities and restrooms are on-site at Woka and mountain bike trails are nearby. There are several miles of additional mountain bike trails in town and on the north side of Siloam. If you enjoy riding dirt bikes or quads, there is the family friendly Off-road race track, Gas MX, directly across the highway from Woka. We also have dirt track racing at Arrowhead Speedway nearby in West Siloam Springs, West of the Casino.
