With hundreds of woodland acres at your disposal, this campground lies within a private nature reserve of hiking trails, waterfalls, bluffs, cascading streams and wildlife -- it is all here. The campground is off the radar -- there are no highway signs or advertisements -- and offers comfortable and safe refuge to guests whether staying in a tent, camper, RV or one of our cabins. On site you can find swimming, paddling, fishing, hiking, a 6-acre foraging field, and 9-hole Frisbee golf course, a Ninja rope course with zipline and slackline, rope swing, bouldering, climbing, psicobloc and more outdoor pursuits than one has time. And Woolly Hollow State Park, Cove Creek Natural Heritage Area and Greer's Ferry Lake all lie within biking distance. New to camping? Need a flush toilet, running faucet and daily shower? Hate bugs, hate thorns, or hate wild critters? Or simply don't like being outside and in a primitive setting? Then this may NOT be the place!! But if you want to sneak away and find a lovely little place to unwind and bathe in a forest under a tall canopy of standing pines and oak trees, then Pinnacle Springs is where you need to be.c Pinnacle Springs offers riverside camping on the banks of the North Fork of Cadron Creek -- central Arkansas' premier whitewater stream -- less than an hour's drive from Little Rock (only 15 minutes from Conway and I-40). Camp by the side of a river. Camp at the foot or atop a towering bluff. Camp in a cave. Camp by a waterfall. Camp in a riparian jungle. Camp in total solitude or camp with friends and family. We offer so many choices one can select a site that perfectly fits their needs. And if you want total seclusion -- a real "wilderness experience" and are willing to "hike-in" a couple of hundred paces we can provide that too. No traffic noise here! Rather, you'll be soothed by the sound of cascading water echoing off the bluffs -- great for outdoor sleeping and keeping the air fresh and alive. Many of the camp sites are equipped with a heavy picnic table, fire pit and grill, lamp post and level tent site. And if you like to swing -- we have trees! Hammocks and slacklines are the best no trace tree thing ever! And although Pinnacle Springs Campground lies in an off-the-grid wilderness setting there is good cell phone service, a water hydrant can be found near the front gate behind the store, and electrical outlets for recharging phones and such can be found on the ridge at nearby Camp Toasty. And from March to November hot water showers are available. Guests are encouraged to explore any of the trails that criss-cross the property especially if you like waterfalls, scenic views, cascading streams, and goat trail bluffs. The trails to Tanner Pool and Lil' and Big B Falls are especially popular after a heavy rain, Bluff Trail offers a nice perch for viewing the river below, and the 1+ mile "circuit trail" is a great way to start one's day. Our place is a bit rough, rugged and unruly yet we call it home -- a place where everyone regardless race, gender identity, sexual orientation, ability, political views, religion, national origin, or culture is welcomed to come enjoy nature's marvelous works and wonders. So we invite you to come down to the Cadron and sit a spell. Unwind. Kick back. And enjoy!

Pinnacle Springs Cabin
We had an amazing stay in the cabin! The view is beautiful and the whole stay was serene. Our host was considerate and accommodating. Waking up to the sound of the creek just outside the cabin is a treat. The weather was pretty cold when we were there, so we had the campground to ourselves and couldn’t get in the water. We’re hoping to to back with a larger group soon!

Pinnacle Springs is a beautiful and peaceful area. The island camp spots are right on the Cadron. I could sit and listen to the water all day. Lovely area. Can't wait to come back again.

Private, yet convenient!
What a marvelous place! I love the quiet and private camping. We arrived with the Cadron at near flood stage, but we still enjoyed walking the shoreline. We had no problem arriving at our campsite, directions are clear and the campgrounds have good roads. Five stars plus.

I really enjoyed my stay at Pinnacle Springs Campground. It was easy to get to my campsite but it didn't feel too unnatural or manmade. The added bonus of going to sleep to the sound of the creek was very relaxing. This has been the best stop on my trip so far. I will definitely be staying again in the future.

Perfect Getaway
Beautiful cabin and property. We originally planned on doing hikes off site, but we couldn’t convince ourselves to leave the Pinnacle Springs. Amazing experience. We’re planning on returning in the spring/summer.

This was my second visit. Pristinely maintained. Very accommodating. Close enough to town in case you need something. Love the tent sites along the creek with fire rings and tables. Perfect off-grid getaway.

Our family loved camping here! It was primitive and beautiful! The owners were so nice and helpful. The hiking was great and so many places to discover. We drove 6 hours from Texas and will totally do it again. Loved it here.

We really enjoyed camping at Deer Stand Rock. We ended up pitching the tent near the fire pit as the trek to the rock with all of our stuff would have been a bit difficult. It was absolutely freezing, but we came prepared and were able to enjoy the evenings staying warm next to the fire. We loved the privacy of the spot and loved being able to hike to the rock and creek to explore.

Weekend camping getaway
This was exactly the experience we were hoping to find - primitive camping with accessible water and wood (the outhouse was a bonus)! John was a great host by offering options when the weather forecast adjusted our plans. The property is beautiful and isolated. We definitely plan to return!

Peaceful primitive camping
Excellent location. Very peaceful and private. I reserved the spot with 30 amp hookups and everything worked fine. They were kind enough to allow me to use their shower house at the front of their property.

Pinnacle Springs Cabin
Beautiful Cabin and Property!!
My friends and I had a wonderful stay here at John‘s cabin, I’d highly recommend it to all! There were six of us and we brought a couple tents but for one of the nights we all slept inside and there was plenty of room. You can purchase upgrades like electricity or a heater but we didn’t. You can tell it’s very well-maintained and we enjoyed our time by the creek and by the fire. We could’ve stayed for a week and still found new things to explore. We did purchase the upgrade to go on a hike with John who’s very knowledgeable about geology and of the springs in Arkansas, very cool guy! Beautiful in the fall and we hope to return sometime in the summer to white water raft and kayak :)

Great Family Camping Trip
The campground was lovely. We chose a spot close to the kids play area and our kids enjoyed it so much. The camping spot had a perfect layout and John stopped by to welcome us and to bring us our firewood that we had purchased. We can’t wait to come back!

Everything was perfect except there were no showers. But it was truly beautiful and the cabin is so cool. You can hear coyotes at night in the hills and my boyfriend & i got to hear the wind through the mountains & got to watch a storm. it was lovely.

Camping with my grandmother
Camp sight was wonderful… felt very secluded and would be a great place for a big family trip since the sight was very large and we had the entire 4 sight property to ourselves as there is only one booking at a time. There are tables at each sight and the top sight has a clean eco toilet as well. The road was fairly loud at night as were the dogs but not too bothersome. The description we were given however did not quite match what we ended up getting since the sight was advertised as EXTREMELY primitive, rough and secluded and not for beginner campers while I found it incredibly beginner friendly with a very accessible toilet in the top camp ground. This worked out in our favor since I was camping with my grandmother. The host was a lap very accommodating. The bottom three are hard/impossible to reach by car but would be a great place to practice backpacking and the creek on the property is lovely!!! All in all it was a wonderful experience

Secluded and self-reliant
I loved my camping experience at John’s place. There weren’t but two other campers at the entire place so it was very secluded. I enjoyed the relaxed feel of the park and it’s a very self reliant park. I do wish there would have been a site map or the campgrounds would have been more clearly marked. Overall, I had a fantastic three night stay at John’s place and will definitely be back.
