47mi from Millwood Lake · 2 sites · Tents, RVs
80+ acres all to yourself!! This beautiful and very secluded property, with river, kayaks, trails, and creeks is offered to only one group at a time to ensure peace, quiet, and seclusion. No other guests will overlap your stay. You will enjoy the peaceful solitude in nature completely alone! It's a great location for romantic getaways, silent personal retreats, yoga, playing in the river, or just spending quiet one-on-one time with your spouse or significant other. The last 1/2 mile of dirt road is a little rough, so cars with very low ground clearance are not recommended. Campers on Thunder Mountain enjoy the entire property by themselves - including the unique outdoor bathhouse with outdoor tub and shower, impressive multi-level decks, kayaks, grill, trails, hammocks, and tubes - without the cost of the cabin. The cabin on the property will be vacant during camping stays, but you can still enjoy the WiFi and other amenities outside. Pricing: $30-90/night camping; $190-280/night cabin - listed separately. Last minute bookings may have discounted rates. Camping bookings for 1 to 2 nights are sometimes available even if the calendar does not show availability (due to cabin cleaning days). We'll try to move our cleaning days around to help you out if possible. If the price looks really high (like $999), that is a date that is available at a low price ($30-50) but will have a later check-in or earlier check-out time. Just ask first before booking it and I'll lower the price!

The best camping in Millwood Lake, AR guide

Overview

About

Located in southwest Arkansas where the Little and Saline rivers meet, Millwood Lake is like that Pixar movie that everyone can enjoy. Fans of the area swear it has some of the best fishing in the country due to 35,000 acres of submerged timber that make excellent homes for many varieties of fish. Seriously though, we’re being a little modest. This lake has some of the best largemouth bass fishing in the nation, with a plethora of bass fishing tournaments and derbies to back up that claim.

Aside from being a holy grail for anglers, this is an excellent wildlife viewing spot featuring white-tailed deer, bobwhite quail, squirrel, dove, rabbit, raccoon, armadillo, opossum, fox, mink, and beaver. Picture that Noah’s Ark of animals frolicking among remarkable flora life such as gum, oak, birch, pine, juniper, flowering shrubs, and wildflowers. Aw heck, stop reading this. Just get in the car and go!

Tips for snagging a campsite

  • Book your campsite well in advance to secure your spot amid the natural beauty of Millwood Lake.
  • Check for cancellations regularly as plans change and spots may open up unexpectedly.
  • Consider visiting during the weekdays for better availability and a quieter camping experience.
  • Explore nearby camping options to ensure you have a backup plan in case Millwood Lake campgrounds are full.

When to go

The best time to visit Millwood Lake is during the spring and fall when the weather is mild and the natural scenery is at its peak. Summer offers warm days perfect for water activities, though it's also the busiest season. Winters can be chilly, making some facilities less accessible.

Know before you go

  • Always check the current water levels and weather conditions before planning your trip to Millwood Lake.
  • Familiarize yourself with the local wildlife and practice safe viewing, especially when fishing or hiking.
  • Review the park's safety guidelines and regulations to ensure a secure and enjoyable visit.
  • Accessibility may vary across different areas of the park, so inquire ahead if you require special accommodations.
  • Pack all necessary supplies, including water and snacks, as amenities may be limited in certain sections of the park.
