White River Campground & Cabins

Carey Madewell

Absolutely fabulous place. Will stay again for sure. At night it's so peaceful and relaxing.

This was a great campground! Super easy, nice & quiet. I couldn't really review the service because there was very limited contact with the campground host or staff. We had a view of the river and the bridge lit up. We also really enjoyed watching the boats & the people fishing float by. Only issue was no TP or paper towels in the ladies room anywhere to be found the day we went to leave, and the road coming In & out was a little extra bumpy. We will be coming back someday!

Very nice experience! Campsite and facilities were clean and nice, similar to that of a state park. We camped at one of the river front sites which gave us full view of the White River and at night the bridge lights up with colored lighting to add to the serenity. Only minor complaint is that with low water the boat ramp is basically unusable since the ramp is so steep. It would probably be tricky to use even with high flows since it is a really steep ramp. However, that’s really not an issue since Cotter has a public ramp right across the bridge just a minute or two away. All in all, staff were very pleasant and accommodating and we had a great experience. I’m sure we’ll be back!

Love this place. Hidden gem on the White River. Full hookups for camping. Easy access to trout fishing, lake fishing and a beautiful area to relax and watch the river run by. Owners and the folks working there (Jeanie) are wonderful! Is a ‘do recommend’!

This is our second time with our camper here and we think White River Campground is one of the best campgrounds we’ve been to. The location is spectacular, right on the White River with an amazing view of Cotter’s iconic bridge. We LOVE the train that comes by twice/day lasting just a few minutes each time. Very old timey. The campground is beautiful with mature trees, a large covered picnic area. We can’t say enough about Shelly and Mike who own and run the place. So gracious and responsive to anything we need. Service with a heart for sure. Minutes to a variety of restaurants and activities, I don’t know why you would stay anywhere else if in the Cotter, Mountain Home area. We can’t say enough and SO look forward to our third stay!

Been traveling the US in our camper and this is one of our favorites campgrounds! Sites were roomy and level. The fishing was excellent and there are easy trails for strolling nearby. The owners, Mike and Shelly are so sweet and helpful. Can't wait to go back!

I absolutely love it here. The outside area is very well kept and the cabin I stayed in was pristine. The owners and staff were incredibly friendly and the location was great. There are many hiking trails in the area, including many fishing spots right in the park.

This is a quick little stop if you need to grab some sleep. The park has full service with paved level sites. It is not a resort or campground. Do not expect any amenities. No bathrooms or showers. But a great place to hang your hat for a one night stand.

I really enjoyed my stay at one of the riverside spots. The view of the river with the railroad bridge and the old Cotter bridge was fantastic, especially in the morning with the sunrise and fog. There's not access to the river from each individual site, the bank is steep and looks hard to mow, but I believe the new owners are actively working to improve access. For now, there's an excellent floating dock that gives good access for casting in various water flows, and a nice hidden rocky bank by the railroad bridge (that's especially nice when the river isn't at full flow). The location is also just a couple minutes away from a lot of access points. I didn't talk with the owners during my stay as I was either fishing or sleeping, but they were helpful and friendly over email in advance of my trip. I'm looking forward to coming back, this is a lovely spot!
