1. Camping in NW Arkansas is PHENOMENAL!
2. The Buffalo National River is one of the most scenic floats in the country
3. The hike Features waterfalls, caves, a mine and other beautiful natural formations

The $25 fee covers the campsite rental and firewood. The optional float trip is an additional fee. Please see below.

Buffalo Point is a convenient, fun-filled destination for families and adventurists of all types. It's perched along the Buffalo National River, providing exciting river sports and hiking opportunities. In peak season, a restaurant is open at the facility, serving up meals for those who want a break from preparing them.

The campground is set along Buffalo National River, one of the few free-flowing rivers remaining in the contiguous United States. The river runs 135 miles without dams and cuts through the Arkansas Ozarks and into the White River. The region is surrounded by droves of lush hardwood trees and grassy open meadows.
