About
Cherokee Campground is located on Greers Ferry Lake in the beautiful Ozark Mountains of north-central Arkansas. The campground offers 30 sites, with 16 featuring electrical hookups and 14 non-electric sites. Additional amenities include vault toilets, a dump station, and a boat ramp for easy lake access.
The campground is surrounded by a dense mix of red cedar, black gum, red oak, elm, pecan, and sweet gum trees, providing ample shade during summer and stunning fall colors in autumn. Wildlife is abundant, with frequent sightings of white-tailed deer, wild turkeys, rabbits, squirrels, and a variety of bird species.
Greers Ferry Lake is an outdoor enthusiast's dream, with over 30,000 acres of water surface for boating, sailing, water skiing, swimming, scuba diving, and fishing. The area also features three National Nature Trails and a multi-purpose fitness trail for hikers. The William Carl Garner Visitor Center near the dam showcases exhibits including a replica of the world record 40 lb. 4 oz. brown trout caught in the Little Red River.
