About This Location

Discover Richland Creek Campground in the Arkansas Ozarks. This free, year-round federal site offers a rustic, first-come, first-served experience for campers.

Richland Creek Campground offers a rugged and authentic escape into the heart of the Arkansas wilderness. Situated at an elevation of 1044 feet within a beautiful forest setting, this USFS-managed site is perfect for those who prefer a primitive, off-the-grid camping experience. As a free, first-come, first-served location, it provides a peaceful atmosphere for visitors looking to disconnect and enjoy the natural beauty of the Southeast region.

Because this is a primitive federal campground, please note that there are no hookups or specific amenities listed on-site. The campground operates on a self-service basis, and visitors are required to arrive in person to claim their spot. If available, you may use the Recreation.gov mobile app to process payments via the Scan and Pay feature, though it is highly recommended to download the app before arrival due to limited connectivity in remote areas.

This location is best suited for experienced campers who are self-sufficient and comfortable with basic, no-frills accommodations. Whether you are tent camping or visiting in a smaller RV, Richland Creek is an ideal destination for those seeking solitude and a true wilderness adventure in the great outdoors.
