About Group Campgrounds in Arkansas

Group camping Arkansas offers an exceptional blend of scenic diversity and well-equipped facilities that make it ideal for family reunions, scout troops, church groups, and friend gatherings across the Natural State. From the crystalline waters of Norfork Lake to the rugged beauty of the Ozark Mountains, Arkansas provides group campers with access to some of the most spectacular and accommodating campgrounds in the South.

Best Time

Tips & Recommendations

1Reserve group sites well in advance through Recreation.gov for Corps of Engineers and Forest Service campgrounds, as popular locations like Bidwell Point and White Rock Mountain book 6-12 months ahead for peak season weekends.
2Designate a group leader to handle the single reservation and coordinate arrival times, as most group sites require check-in by a specific time and may charge no-show fees.
3Bring extra-long extension cords and power strips, since group pavilions typically offer limited electrical outlets for the number of people using them.
4Pack comprehensive first aid supplies and ensure at least two group members know CPR, as remote locations may be 30+ minutes from emergency services.
