Hiking Trails
We encourage one to wander about the miles of trails that thread across the landscape. You'll visit bluff edge overlooks, plunging waterfalls, springs and even a rock shelter where native Americans once camped. The rock for the trail system at Batesville Mountain Campground was quarried, cut and stacked over an eight year period by just one man: Sparky.
Tip: Ask for a trail map at the gate.

The ECLIPSE
Our campgrounds offer some of the best spots for viewing the eclipse. We are located on the banks of the North Fork of the Cadron and lie directly in the very heart of the totality. This means over 4 minutes of total darkness in which our guests will have an unobstructed, panoramic view of this awe-inspiring event. Whether watching the skies from our open fields, from atop a rock pinnacle or from a boat floating upon the water you will find we offer more amenities, more fun, and more privacy at a fraction of the cost of our competitors.

The 2023 Season Ends Early
With no rain and low water, we're closing reservations for canoes and kayaks early this year. If you want to see highlights from this year's float season, click the button below.

Guided Kayak Tours
The Cadron Creek is a convenient, beautiful, and thrilling river to float, located less than an hour from Little Rock. We are excited to offer customized guided tours with shuttle services that come straight to you. Get out of your house or hotel and immerse yourself in nature! There is no better way to spend a day in central Arkansas.

The Pinnacle Springs Run
Our most popular section, The Pinnacle Springs Run, is 4.5 miles long and offers a mix of easy and exhilarating class 1 and class 2 rapids. The trip usually takes about 3 hours to complete depending on the water level and number of stops. Shuttle service is included with your boat rental for this section of the Cadron Creek.
