13mi from Greeson Lake · 2 sites · Tents, RVs
80+ acres all to yourself!! This beautiful and very secluded property, with river, kayaks, trails, and creeks is offered to only one group at a time to ensure peace, quiet, and seclusion. No other guests will overlap your stay. You will enjoy the peaceful solitude in nature completely alone! It's a great location for romantic getaways, silent personal retreats, yoga, playing in the river, or just spending quiet one-on-one time with your spouse or significant other. The last 1/2 mile of dirt road is a little rough, so cars with very low ground clearance are not recommended. Campers on Thunder Mountain enjoy the entire property by themselves - including the unique outdoor bathhouse with outdoor tub and shower, impressive multi-level decks, kayaks, grill, trails, hammocks, and tubes - without the cost of the cabin. The cabin on the property will be vacant during camping stays, but you can still enjoy the WiFi and other amenities outside. Pricing: $30-90/night camping; $190-280/night cabin - listed separately. Last minute bookings may have discounted rates. Camping bookings for 1 to 2 nights are sometimes available even if the calendar does not show availability (due to cabin cleaning days). We'll try to move our cleaning days around to help you out if possible. If the price looks really high (like $999), that is a date that is available at a low price ($30-50) but will have a later check-in or earlier check-out time. Just ask first before booking it and I'll lower the price!

The best camping in Greeson Lake, AR guide

Overview

About

Located on the scenic Little Missouri River, Greeson Lake is one of a trifecta of lakes within the Ouachita River Basin. The lake is approximately 12 miles long and surrounded by a healthy 16,000 acres of beautiful public lands.

If the lake was a scout, it’d be well deserving of a merit badge for a wealth of fish species that includes striped, spotted, white and largemouth bass, and catfish. Plus the area directly below Narrows Dam yields an enormous supply of rainbow trout. The 35,000-acre public hunting area west of the lake offers rabbits, squirrels, bobwhite quail, and whitetail deer. A nearby trail lets you explore the old Cinnabar Mine (I know, we wish it was a Cinnabon mine too), and the more extensive Bear Creek Cycle Trails opens you up to 31 miles of beauty around the lake with rolling hills and pine covered forests.

Notable campgrounds

  • Cowhide Cove - A family-friendly spot with 50 campsites, offering a boat ramp, playground, and a swim beach.
  • Kirby Landing - Features 87 campsites with two boat ramps and a swim beach, perfect for water enthusiasts.
  • Self Creek/Jim Wylie - Offers 76 campsites near Daisy, complete with concrete boat ramps and picturesque swim beaches.

Tips for snagging a campsite

  • Book early by calling the National Recreation Reservation System or visiting recreation.gov to secure your spot.
  • Consider visiting during the off-season for better availability and quieter camping experiences.
  • Keep an eye on cancellations, as last-minute openings can provide unexpected opportunities.
  • Explore nearby camping options to increase your chances of finding a great campsite.

When to go

The prime time to visit Greeson Lake is from spring to fall, when the weather is warm and the natural beauty is at its peak. Summer months offer the full range of recreational activities, though they can be busy. Winters are quieter but cooler, with some facilities potentially closed.

Know before you go

  • Always wear a life jacket when on the water, regardless of your swimming abilities.
  • Check the generation schedule for Narrows Dam to plan safe boating and fishing trips.
  • Be aware of the fluctuating water levels and underwater hazards near the shoreline.
  • Remember that Arkansas Game and Fish Commission regulations apply for hunting in the area.
  • Day use fees apply for boat launching and beach use, with annual passes available for frequent visitors.
