This campsite offers a peaceful, secluded experience with beautiful natural surroundings including creeks, swimming holes, and hiking trails. Guests often enjoy the sounds of nature, especially the soothing water flow. However, the campsites are close together, which sometimes leads to noise from neighboring campers. Accessibility can be challenging, requiring a high-clearance vehicle to navigate the rough, uneven roads and creek crossings.

Site 4 - Kings River Falls Camping
Such a beautiful place to camp and hike. The directions to the site were very clear and we found it with no problems. Even with the creek being lower, we still loved swimming below the waterfall. Our dogs were living their best lives!! Over our four days, there was only one other group of campers and we didn’t hear them much. So peaceful and secluded. We stayed in campsite #4 and really appreciated the amount of tree cover to keep us cool. Would recommend lots of bug spray and citronella candles, because there are a lot of bugs in the summer! Overall, loved our time at the campsite and are planning on returning in the future!

Sam and Michelle’s site was just gorgeous, it’s right beside the creek and a bigger swimming hole that our kids just loved! The creek crossing was not high for us at all but the ground is very uneven and I do think a 4wd is necessary for the road. We parked on the other side of the creek and carried our things to the site and it wasn’t too bad at all. It was such a dreamy site all in all for our kids and us on our first camping trip. We read on another review that the outhouse at our site was out of order so we came prepared with a bathroom setup of our own. We also brought our own firewood in. It is pretty far from the nearest town so I recommend double checking that you’re bringing everything in. We had such a great time and were so sad to leave a day early due to weather since it’s such a magical spot.

A very special place. The swimming holes were so amazing. Definitely need 4 wheel drive to park by your site which we had. Only downfall was a very large group showed up our last day and night and it was close and loud. No fault of the owners, maybe just check to see if any large groups coming in before you book.

This Hipcamp site was a true gem for a private and comfortable escape! Tucked away under a canopy of trees, it offered abundant shade and truly felt like being deep in the woods, far removed from any city noise. The swimming spots were fantastic, making for refreshing dips throughout the day. Everything about the site itself was perfect, and I would absolutely visit again.
The only significant downside was not about the site but an inconsiderate group at the next site while we’re staying. They played loud music on a speaker and talked loudly late into the night. What was particularly concerning was their smoking while cooking in the woods, a truly unpleasant and potentially hazardous behavior that showed a lack of respect for the environment and other campers. I hope people are mindful that this is a shared space and remember to be respectful of their neighbor campers.

The views here are spectacular, without a doubt.
We were at Site #1, closest to the Public Swimming Hole. Ask for a different site if you're looking for listening to less people... It's a busy place. The outhouse at the site was not operational; a tent was jammed into it and a new seat laid on top. We chose not to walk past another campsite to use those porta potties.
Be prepared for humidity in the heat of the summer. Put up your fire starters, matches, etc so they don't get wet.
The rug inside of the tent smelled like dogs. Personally would replace for the price per night, but it was bug free and we were glad for that. Lock up your food at night, as there are nighttime guests. We named our young raccoon friend Reginald and shared fruit with him.
Overall a great stay.

Site 3 - Kings River Falls Camping
If your looking for a off beat secluded camping area with sounds of birds, and nature this is a good spot. Stayed a week. Me an my 2 kids loved the trails and the several springs of water. It's very quiet.

This campsite was amazing! The host gave us perfect and easy-to-follow directions for getting there - especially since it is accurate that service is lost close to the site. The location is stunning, the campsite was well-maintained and convenient to so much exploring! The Falls itself was such a short distance and was absolutely breathtaking. We had such a nice time staying here! Arkansas was an unexpected gem on our trip :)

Beautiful park we had a great time! We enjoyed the swimming hole access right from our site.
The sight is off the beaten path but worth the drive in! I plan to make a trip back in the future.

The privacy. To be in an area that is so remote and peaceful was wonderful. There were very few people at the public swimming hole and only 2 other campsites occupied. Our 'neighbor' campsite played guitar and sang for us. We hiked some trails and it was like we were in a world of our own. Great experience.

Site 3 - Kings River Falls Camping
This site was so peaceful, nice cool breezes. Creeks and swimming holes surrounding the site. I had a wonderful time hiking down the creeks to each spot for a float. Watching the minnows, tadpoles and crawfish. The cave behind the main swimming hole is much larger and higher up than I thought. A must see. I took so many pictures, everything was so gorgeous. The drive over the creek was something. It was less about the creek and more about the hill on either side of it. Use caution and bring a wagon to carry your things. You'll also be driving a dirt road through the trees for quite a while to get there. The marker across from the schoolhouse does not stand out, follow the owner's directions carefully.

Beautiful campsite! Loved the creek and swimming areas nearby! It's definitely a trek to get out there but so worth it. I didn't have any cell or internet service, which is to be expected sometimes when camping. And I might not have the best service, but just a heads up 🙂 I would love to book this place again! Campsites looked well maintained and it was easy to find, just make sure you follow the hosts written instructions included on your reservation (and maybe take snips of them before you leave in case you can't connect to the app when you get there)

Shaded campsites, Tables at each site and rock firepits. The swimming hole was gorgeous and just what you need on a hot day!

Site 2 - Kings River Falls Camping
This spot was incredibly remote, and was fantastic once I got all setup. I will say I stayed at spot 2 and it was not clearly labeled, but was the 2nd spot in sequence, so I figured it out. I think that they should label the spots somehow to avoid confusion. There was some minor trash that the previous campers left, the worst being a broken bottle that I picked up. Additionally, the picnic table was not there at site two seems like it was stolen. There were rocks, I used as a fire ring.
Regardless, this spot was incredibly beautiful. Sleeping while hearing the rushing water was relaxing!!! I would recommend it if you are adventurous and like to swim in creeks. The hike of the Kings River nearby was also gorgeous!!! Make sure you can drive over about 1 ft of water to get the campsite. I’d like to come back here someday with a group of friends. I will say the campsites are closer together than I would like but if you rented out spot 1, 2 and 3 at the same time you’d be totally alone with your friends. This might be worth it if you’re a family and you don’t want to be camping next to a rowdy group.

Beautiful site with the sound of the river all around. Sam was very friendly and helpful. We notified him that our air mattress was leaking the first night (we did have to drive to find reception, which was clearly marked on a map our host had texted to us) He came over with a new mattress and some extra blankets. The second night was very comfortable. Extras provided included 5 gallons of water, cooking pans, utensils, disposable plates and plastic eating utensils, dish soap, bug spray, battery operated lanterns, camp chairs and board games. The water is clear and cold! There are several beautiful hikes. We enjoyed peaceful off grid time together and in nature.
Side note: the creek was mid calf depth at the crossing. It would not have been difficult to drive through per se, but the inclines up out of the creek are steep and rutted. If you don't have a high clearance vehicle, you will probably bottom out. We chose to park and pack everything across. Bring your water shoes!

We loved the fact that it was very primitive and private style camping. Campsite #1 was right on the water and the sounds of the rushing waters as you fall asleep are unbeatable. This campsite offers tons of trails and waters to explore and fish, and it’s right up the road from the Kings river falls which is a beautiful short hike to a picturesque swimming hole underneath the falls.

We got this campsite on short notice. We were unable to cross the small stream in our vehicle but were able to park right next to it and walk across with our gear. It was right after three straight days of rain. My in laws were able to drive their sequoia across and one of the other campers was able to drive their truck across ,Very beautiful location. Two creeks meet right next to campsite one. Good little bluegill and smallmouth fishing spot. Nothing huge, but some entertainment. Would recommend this location to my friends. There is no cell phone reception which is perfect.

We weren’t able to keep our reservation due to tornado and flood warnings throughout the area, but Sam and Michelle were so lovely and proactive about contacting us and making sure we knew what was going on. Still hoping to stay here one of these days!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 Stars – Awesome Off-Grid Riverside Campground!
This off-grid campground was a blast! Super clean and surrounded by trees with a cool river nearby. Our tent site had a fire pit and picnic table, perfect for s’mores under the stars. Loved the hiking trails and kicking back by the river.

I love how secluded the spot was and how much of an adventure it was just passing over the creek to get to our spot. The kids had a lot of fun next time we'll rent spot number 5 for an even more personal space. Even though the space we chose which was number four was very secluded and had a great view and we really enjoyed having the creek right by our spot the sound of the rushing water was phenomenal and even though it rained it was a wonderful wonderful trip we will definitely be back!

The space was amazing! Right on the river so we fell asleep to the sounds of the water flowing. Unfortunately at 3am the weather took a turn but Sam went above and beyond by coming down and checking on us to make sure we were okay. He even came in the morning to double check.

Beautiful site and we had such a great time! Very easy walk to the falls and the two sweet dogs hanging out with us all day was a plus. This site was secluded from the other sites but still easily accessible to the restrooms.

Absolutely beautiful views on the hiking trail nearby. The hosts were really nice and the campground dogs are adorable. I would not recommend trying to find this place in the dark, read the directions they give you carefully.
Site 1 is right on the swimming hole and you can hear the creek, the water is so clear as well, it’s very pretty and peaceful. The tent rentals were nice and convenient, they set them up for us.
