We loved tent camping here. Lewis was very communicative on how things would work, and the view was great. Nice hiking trails close by. We were able to see the 2024 eclipse from the campsite and it was prefect. The location is right next to the highway, so not super private, but it worked. The Indian creek parking and canoe launch point are right across the bridge.

Beautiful Spot

This camping spot was very nice! It had easy access to the creek so our dogs could swim while we relax and listen to the water. The camp site has a nice firepit with a grill for cooking. A picnic table is also at the site. Great spot to stay while exploring the Mulberry River area!

Peaceful camping in Arkansas

Close to highway, but the minimal road traffic did not bother us at all. Private creek access that was great for getting the hound wet. No problem with clearance in our 16 ft travel trailer.

I loved the area. The hills were beautiful and the campsite was set up really nicely. My only complaint is that is was very very close to the road. You could hear all the cars passing (some noisier than others). You could see the lights from the cars at night (while sleeping inside the tent). Aside from that, the area was very nice.

Great Place for a Fall Stay

Blue Yonder is beautifully situated by creek and nestled in trees with colorful fall leaves but not far from a trailhead. The land is thoughtfully arranged-easy in and out in a camper. Pretty quiet and relaxing! Easy to find with a picturesque setting in the Ozark National Forest!

This spot was perfect for our stay with two teenage boys, and two younger boys. Well kept, a perfect fire ring, plenty of trees to get for hammocks up, and my favorite part was access to the creek! Even in late July, it had enough water for exploring, and cooling off a bit. Because of our last minute reservation, firewood was not available, but we were able to pick some up at the adventure center just down the road. There was some road noise, but we barely noticed it. No unwanted lights, and the night sky was absolutely gorgeous. We would love to stay here again. The host was kind and responsive!
