Perfect Place to Get Away From It All! 👀👀 If you love the outdoors and river life come see us! We are completely different than your normal campgrounds! The price is $50 Per Night for up to 8 . All sites will hold 8 or more people. If you have a larger crowd let us know and we’ll set up an area to accommodate for an additional fee. Live music most weekends, but plenty of room to get away from it if that’s not what you’re into. Set up your tent in one of our designated camping areas or make your own new camping area along the river or in the forest. Or bring your RV or Camper with a generator and stay along the river or adjacent to the river. You can hike,swim, bike ride, search for arrowheads and artifacts, kayak, fish, bring your off road vehicle and play in our designated off road park,come see live music, or just come get away and bring your hammock and chill out and do nothing for as long as you choose. Also we are just 5 miles from Hughes Mountain Natural Area and not far from some other great areas like Elephant Rocks and Johnson Shut Ins. See you at the river✌️

    Big River Outdoors offers a tranquil camping experience with secluded spots along the river, perfect for those seeking a quiet retreat. Many campers praised the helpfulness of the host Joshua, who often goes the extra mile to ensure guests' needs are met. The campsite is a great spot for fishing, kayaking, and enjoying nature, though some reviews noted the need for clearer directions and better communication regarding amenities like showers. Overall, the campgrounds provide a peaceful escape with plenty of space and beautiful river access.

    Couldn’t recommend this spot enough! It was secluded and right on the river. Joshua was extremely helpful and helped us to our spot. Fishing was great and the river was an awesome spot to cool off in the heat, 10/10 would recommend to anyone!

    I went camping on spring break with 6 of my friends, it was some of our first times camping and we loved it! The owner was very nice and communicative, the showers weren’t working while we stayed but that wasn’t a huge deal to us and he notified us in advance. Very secluded and peaceful! We absolutely loved it and will definitely be back.

    It was okay

    Good fishing and friendly owner. We went right after a biblical flood so mud was everywhere. We intend to go again to really experience the camp ground properly.
