We love camping at Buffalo Point Campground. This was our 4th trip there. The host is very friendly and helpful. The spacious campsites are always spotless when you pull in and some even have a little bench for extra seating. It was recently designated as a dark skies national park. There is a lot to do in this area such as tubing down the Buffalo National River which I love because in the summer the water is warm, touring caverns in the area, and fishing in the White River which is famous for it's huge trout. It's also a beautiful area in the Ozark Mountains in the spring, summer and fall. We love this area so much we actually bought 7 wooded acres in Yellville where we will build our retirement home.
One thing I wish they had was cell phone coverage in the actual campground. You can make calls at the top by the Ranger Station but it's too far to walk so you actually have to take the car to the top even though it's not that far by car.
The people in the area, both local and campers are the most friendly we have ever met and we have been all over the country. If you love being in nature, enjoy wildlife, and love peaceful quiet nights by the fire you will love this campground.
We always keep our campsite free of any kind of food and take our trash to the bin so we have never had a problem. However, beware at night to keep the campsite very clean and everything put up because the local raccoons love to visit and make a mess while you are sleeping. The campers next to us left their trash bag outside and dirty plates and serving bowls on the picnic table one night and woke up to a horrible mess the next morning.

Beautiful area that had nice campsites, decent bathrooms, good trash clean up and well maintained trails. The hike to the caves was a big hit with my children.
