Robert's Redneck Retreat is located on about 16 acres of pasture and 58 acres of forested land with a creek and trails running through it. Our property also adjoins 1200 acres of the Mark Twain National Forest, dotted with springs, trails, rivers, lakes, ponds and breathtaking views. We have three small cabins on the property that are spaced out for privacy. There are also potential for tent camp sites.My husband and I love nature, farming, gardening, and sharing time with like-minded individuals. Our dream is small scale hobby farming adjoined with cabin rentals, allowing trees to regrow in places that were once pasture in order to do our part to help maintain habitat for wild animals and plants. It is a balance that we love and it is our pleasure to share this property with you. We are new here, but we are not new to the camping world; we have been helping campers have positive experiences since 2013 and already have over 170 positive reviews on Airbnb. We would love for Hip Campers to come experience our brand of cabin camping, with farm and forest experiences.A little history of the surrounding area: The Mark Twain National Forest was stripped by loggers in the 1800's and was purchased by the government as a preserve. Since then, it has regrown into hardwood forest, dotted with remnants of pine. It feels wild and untouched, despite knowing it's history. And within it, it harbors all manner of waterways, wildlife, plants, and fungi beyond your imagination. We love southern Missouri and hope you come catch a taste of the wildness that is the Forest. Disconnect, unplug, lose your cell signal, and come find yourself in the woods :)

Recent reviews from the Hipcamp community

The best camping in Lake Frierson State Park, AR guide

Overview

About

Dogwoods, fishing, and lazy days spent in Arkansas’ rolling hills are bound to rejuvenate anyone. For the relaxed camp life, head to Lake Frierson State Park, which is perched atop Crowley’s Ridge. Other than fine views of the surrounding landscape, visitors will be awarded with a lake full of tasty fish. Bream, catfish, crappie, saugeye, and bass are ready to fill up your tacos! After lunch, head out on a kayak or pedal boat and watch the magnificent dogwoods bloom throughout the park. At night, choose from a wide variety of campsites and be lulled to sleep by the sound of nature. Now that is what we call a natural recharge!

Notable campgrounds

  • Class B Campsites: These lake view sites feature water and electric hookups, along with convenient amenities like a barbecue grill and picnic table.
  • Tent Sites: For a more rustic experience, the tent sites with no hookups immerse you in the natural splendor of the park.

Tips for snagging a campsite

  • Book early to secure your preferred dates, as the park's serene setting makes it a popular camping destination.
  • Consider visiting during the off-peak season for greater availability and a quieter experience.
  • Keep an eye on cancellations, which can provide unexpected opportunities for last-minute trips.
  • Explore nearby camping options if the park is fully booked, ensuring you don't miss out on the area's natural beauty.

When to go

The best time to visit Lake Frierson State Park is during the peak season from March to November, when the visitor center is open daily and all facilities are available. Off-peak season offers a quieter visit but with limited hours and some amenities closed.

Know before you go

  • Check the weather forecast and pack accordingly to ensure a comfortable visit.
  • Visitor center hours vary by season, so plan your trip to access full services and boat rentals.
  • Remember to bring your fishing gear, as the lake is well-stocked with a variety of fish.
  • Accessibility is a priority, with ADA accessible sites and facilities available.
  • Note that the park is closed on major holidays, so plan your visit around these dates.
