One of the nicest established camp grounds in the state.

We were just here to camp and continue hiking the Ozark Highlands Trail. The lady running the general store was so nice and welcoming. I would come back just for the hospitality. But the recreation area is of course amazing as well. Beautiful views from the well-maintained trails.

Truly a hidden gym. Not crowded and many incredible scenic views. Hiking trails off the top of the mountain are not the roughest but definitely not easy. Thankfully there are plenty of downed trees and logs along the path to take breaks on. Loved the trip and plan to come back.

We love White Rock Mountain! The views are outstanding! The cabins are comfortable and clean. Kitchen has all you need to prepare wonderful meals, while keeping authentic decor throughout the cabin. Waking up and enjoying the beauty and quiet with a cup of coffee on the back porch is priceless. Could not ask for better park host and staff! Very helpful, knowledgeable, friendly. We will be returning often to this park.

Beautiful scenery, a clean and well kept campground, and a friendly campground host made for a wonderful experience. Good cell coverage for ATT. Would stay here again even though activities are limited to hiking. There is a good 2 mile loop hike around the top of the mountain I would recommend. The road up to he area is well graded and kept up by the forest service. Excellent views. Go check it out!

This location is spectacularly beautiful. The road to the site is rough and steep (15 miles of dirt, rock, and gravel) not to mention narrow, but check-in went very smoothly. The lady at the general store (where check-in happens) was VERY nice and engaging. Other campers were very nice as well. Highly recommend this place.
