About
Dam Site River Campground sits on the shores of the White River just below Beaver Dam and Lake in the Ozark Mountains of Northwest Arkansas. This US Army Corps of Engineers campground features 59 large, sunny campsites with electric hookups, fire rings, picnic tables, and convenient access to excellent recreational opportunities. Each site can accommodate one RV and one tent, or three tents. The campground's location below Beaver Dam provides exceptional fishing opportunities. The cold waters of the upper White River offer ideal habitat for rainbow and German brown trout, while nearby Beaver Lake's 28,000 surface acres hold large and smallmouth bass, crappie, bream, white bass, stripers, and catfish. The surrounding landscape features towering limestone bluffs, natural caves, and diverse forest vegetation that supports abundant wildlife including deer, rabbits, and squirrels. Beyond fishing and hunting, visitors enjoy hiking and biking on Ozark Mountain trails, boating, swimming, scuba diving, water skiing, and spelunking. Several marinas around the lake provide groceries, fuel, boat rentals, and fishing guides. The campground operates with a 14-day stay limit per 30-day period and requires check-in with the camp host at 4:00 PM.
Directions
From Eureka Springs, Arkansas, take Highway 62 West and travel just over 4 miles. Turn left on Highway 187 and continue for about 6 miles. Take the first right after crossing the dam and follow signs to the campground.
