Red Fern

8 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents7 acres · Witter, AR
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.

Fitzgerald Mountain RV Camp

2 sites · RVs6 acres · Springdale, AR
This land is a six acre slice of property that includes a meadow, wooded areas, a small pine forest, native stones galore, a steep mountain side, giant boulders, a wet weather stream and pond, and 2 old tin barns. From West to East, the property starts flat but then begins to slope upward as it runs from the base of Fitzgerald Mountain Eastward nearly to the top of the mountain. The former homestead was removed within the past 20 years, creating a fantastic spot for the campground. It is located a short distance from Fitzgerald Station, which was a well known stop on Military road (later known as Butterfield stage line) in the 1830’s. The camp is only 2 miles from historic downtown Springdale, which is an area undergoing exciting revitalization. A concrete trail is planned that will connect the camp area to downtown making biking to restaurants and pubs much easier in the near future. The Razorback Greenway runs through downtown, and provides a biking connection to all of Northwest Arknsas.Learn more about this land:Fitzgerald Mountain Van and RV Camp offers 2 RV spots (26' max) with ride in / ride out access to Fitzgerald Mountain's world class trails.  The mountain is home to OZ trails mountain biking and hiking for all levels. (look up OZ trails  - Fitzgerald Mountain)The 2 van camper/RV spots sit at the base of a shade tree and the entry to the “Goat Trail.”  This trail (named for the adjacent goat farm) will lead campers to the campfire area, "Fitzmo Barn", and Butterfield trail.  Fitzmo barn has a map where you can leave your mark by putting a pin in your hometown and signing the wall.  Leave your brand's sticker on the wall so other bikers and hikers can find their way to your hometown spots. The barn has chairs for the fire pit area, and can also provide some shelter if it rains.Butterfield trail crosses the camp area adjacent to Fitzmo Barn.   Head North on Butterfield to connect with blue and black trails including the “best trail ever” and fantastic views from the mountain top.  Head South to connect with trails for all skill levels including a strider course for the kids at Bayyari Park.  Bayyari Park is only 1/3 mile away and has public restrooms that I'm told "remain open until 10:00 PM year round unless there is extreme cold."The only neighbors of the camp have a small farm to the North, and their goats and peacock occasionally visit the camp’s Western field.  Other than these neighbors, the area feels secluded, especially at the fire pit and barn area. Fitzgerald is a historical area.  Fitzgerald station is nearby, and served as a stop on the Butterfield overland stagecoach mail route that was used in the 1800s. Downtown Springdale is 2 miles away, and the pubs and restaurants cater to bikers.  A paved trail is planned for the near future that will provide bike access to downtown.*Note* Backing up to a turn around area will be required for exit from the RV spots.

Camping in Devil's Den State Park guide

Overview

About

Developed by the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) in the 1930s, this park features miles of mountain biking, horseback riding, and hiking trails, including the Butterfield Hiking Trail, a 15-mile-long backpacking trail that takes hikers past rock formations and panoramic viewpoints. Other highlights include the eight-acre Lake Devil—a hit among anglers and boaters—and the area’s great lodging options, all surrounded by Ozark National Forest. Devil’s Den Campground features 135 campsites, including some hike-in tent camping sites, plus 17 cabins with kitchens and six barebones camper cabins with outdoor picnic tables. There's also a horse camp with hookups, a group camp, and a seasonal cafe.

Tips for snagging a campsite

  1. You can make reservations up to a year in advance. Same-day reservations are also available. 
  2. Weekends require a minimum two-night stay.
  3. Reservations can be made through the Devil’s Den State Park website or by calling Arkansas State Parks. You can also book directly with the Devil's Den park office, in person or over the phone. 
  4. If you can’t find a spot at Devil’s Den, you may have better luck with a Hipcamp elsewhere in northwest Arkansas.

When to go

The park and its visitor center are open year-round for camping and day use, though some restrooms and bathhouses are closed during winter. The swimming pool is only open between Memorial Day and Labor Day, while the park store and canoe and pedal boat rentals are open from March through mid-November. Interpretive programs and ranger-led hikes are offered throughout the year, and the Ozark Mountain Bike Festival is held every spring.

Know before you go

  • Gas and basic groceries and supplies are available in Winslow, a 20-minute drive away on Hwy. 74, but you'll have considerably more options if you head north to Fayetteville, a 35- to 40-minute drive away.
  • Linens are provided in the full-service cabins, but if you're staying in a camper cabin, you'll need to bring your own.
  • Devil’s Den offers ADA-accessible campsites and cabins.
  • Pets are allowed at the park, but must be kept on a leash at all times.
