Best for self-contained campers. There are no toilets, showers, or potable water at this Hipcamp.

Located in quiet Decatur Arkansas, this camp site is on an open prairie with a small pond. You are 10-15 min from major restaurants and the best mountain biking on the planet! Currently we have 1 large gravel site with 50, 30 and 20 amp service. There is also sewer but NO water (yet). It was a horse farm, and as such there are several buildings and cattle fences. Very quiet and peaceful but close to Centerton and Bentonville. This is self-serve, no one lives out there. We can accommodate larger RVs, wide new entry way! 10-15 min to Starbucks and Walmart 10-15 min to bike trailsCome stay at our private 5 acre mini-farm, welcome to Blackwater Forge! Located in quiet Decatur AR, start a relaxing fire or walk to the pond. When you are ready for dinner or for a mountain bike ride, take a short ride to town where there is everything! Ride all day, peace and quiet at night! We are located 15 min from Bentonville, the Mountain Bike Capital of the world and 5 minutes from Legacy Ranch. We can accommodate the larger RVs with 50, 30 and 20 amp power. There is sewer hookup but NO water at this time. We can accommodate larger RVs, wide new entry way!

Nice site in the country. I definitely prefer this to crowded campgrounds. Owner left firewood by the firepit. Nice touch. Quiet except in the daytime there was frequent dust generating dump truck traffic to the quarry down the road. Owner checked in with us via text message. Electric hookup is on the passenger side if you back in, so I would recommend pulling in nose first if possible to get that hookup on the driver's side as well as the firepit on your passenger side. Put the GPS coordinates into your navigation system so you don't overshoot the site like we did. We stayed in a 38 ft motorhome.

This spot was absolutely beautiful! The host and his son were very kind and the seldom passing neighbors always waved. Very clean and safe would highly recommend!

I loved car camping at this site! It had a good sized pad for parking and a perfect sized fire pit. I enjoyed the bit of wildlife I saw, the neighboring animals never became disrupting, and the road was very quiet. It was close enough to town that I didn’t feel disconnected, but it was far enough out that I could enjoy nature and see plenty of stars. Would definitely recommend this spot.

So Grateful!
We were scrambling after another Hipcamp scammed us. It was 8pm, dark, we had a 25 ft trailer packed to the gills, three kids and two dogs had done 3 12 hour days, and we had no place to go. We found Daniel’s place, booked and messaged to make sure we were dealing with a human. Daniel messaged right back and guided us right into the spot. We started with one night because we were coming off of such a bad experience, but booked the rest of the week but morning. We had five acres of fenced lawn all to ourselves. It was absolutely perfect for the dogs and boys to run around while we completed some work on the trailer. It’s a beautiful, quiet, private setting. It’s about 30 minutes from town but once we leave camp, it’s not like we’re back and forth, so it totally works. We will definitely be back!

Beautiful clean private location with an amazing sunset view. The roads coming into camp are hilly so be prepared. But, so worth the privacy and sunset view. Easy booking and checking in process too.

Great location! We loved how peaceful and beautiful the surrounding area was. Pretty close to Bentonville, but far enough away to get a break from the city. The site was easy to access, and the gravel and electrical hookup were appreciated! The host doesn’t live on the property, but we ran into him coming in and had a pleasant encounter. Would stay here again.
