Best in Arkansas: 2nd place

Named one of the best Hipcamps to visit in 2023.

One of Arkansas' greatest treasures. Less than a minute from the Kings River Falls Trail-head, and nestled alongside the headwaters of the Kings River in Venus Arkansas. This is a remote and rugged campground with caves, bluffs, swimming holes and river a plenty. This campground has a grand exhibition of the same sandstone formation that is responsible for the Whitaker Point (Hawksbill Crag) formation. Clovis like points have been found here, and so one might assume the bluffs and crags here have been inhabited for millennia. This 7 acre property is completely surrounded by Arkansas Natural Heritage-Natural Area. There are miles of trails and cooling waters at every turn. If you like Kings River Falls, get ready to fall in love with this Red Fern Campground. So pack your curiosity, lace up your hiking boots, and let the whispering leaves guide you. Kings River Falls awaits, ready to share its secrets with those who listen. Where time slows down and the modern world fades away. Every turn reveals a new wonder; a hidden waterfall an unnoticed cave or bluff or a moss-covered boulder. It’s not just a place; it’s an experience an invitation to step beyond the ordinary and into a world where magic still thrives and fairy tales come alive. Here, the forest whispers secrets, and the river sings a timeless song. Most of our campsites are just yards away from a public swimming area, which is shared between our property and the Arkansas Natural Area. You should expect local traffic at the main swimming area during your stay. We have a private swimming area on our property which is just a short hike from the developed campsites (Please ask the camphost for directions). There are miles of county maintained bumpy dirt roads leading to the site. Expect your vehicle to get dusty. There is a creek crossing that is required to reach the campsites. We recommend high clearance and/or 4WD or AWD vehicles. If you are unable to cross the creek, you will need to park in the parking area and walk across the creek to reach your site.

Site 4 - Kings River Falls Camping

First family camp

It’s well off the beaten path. It was our first trip with our kids and they had a magical time exploring. Got rain our second day but it was short and memorable. Would love to go back with a bigger group and grab that first spot past the creek next time.

Site 3 - Kings River Falls Camping

Loved it!

Our family loved camping here. I loved how far off the beaten path it is - I didn't want to camp somewhere around a ton of other people. This spot had great camping and hiking and the kids loved exploring. I will say that there is either a lack of good fishing or we just didn't know where to find it. Also, I recommend a 4-wheel drive vehicle. We saw people get stuck trying to cross the creek multiple times - it is not an easy crossing. But overall, we loved this beautiful spot and would love to go back sometime!

Absolutely enchanting! From The Little toad that lived in the tree at the back of our campsite to all of the wonderful specimens of unique birds and insects. Camping was absolutely lovely! Be sure to buy aqua shoes for braving the rocks to the swimming holes such a beautiful experience had by my family we loved it 100%

Camping site 3

We LOVE this site! Sam and Michelle are always so easy to work with and it's always a pleasure when they are on site and we get to chat. And the site is always well maintained and cared for properly. Like I've told them this is the ONLY place I pay to camp. We had a great trip this last 4 days. Thanks Sam and Michelle!! Can't wait to see the additions
