Group sites are very rocky. Level spots for tents at this group site are in the low areas and terrible in the rain. No showers within walking distance.

Been a wonderful experience for 47 summers. Children then grandchildren then great grandchildren have grown up visiting the Buffalo. We all start planning for the next year as soon as we get home. Memories are made every year. How can a river bring such pleasure to all age groups? We know how!

We had a wonderful stay at this campground! One of our favorite parts was that there was little to no cell service—it made it so easy to unplug, relax, and enjoy the outdoors without distractions. The campground was very well maintained, and you could tell the staff takes great pride in keeping everything clean and cared for. The views were absolutely beautiful and made for a peaceful, relaxing getaway. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking to disconnect and enjoy nature.
The only downside to our specific campsite was that it was located right at the main entrance and exit to the water. Because of that, it got pretty noisy and crowded at times with people launching and returning in their kayaks. If you're looking for a quieter, more private campsite, I would recommend choosing one that's a little farther away from the water access.

The buffalo is incredible so I guess I'll keep coming back BUT. Bathrooms need some repair, sinks not working.
Lazy cleaning people took about 5 minutes cleaning bathrooms.
Most campsites need more gravel and drainage work.
Ours had a huge pond where our trailer door landed.
Rangers replay, after seeing our problem "we can't stop the rain"
Just fill the pond!
And proper walkways to the water is a necessity before someone gets hurt!
Not even close to ADA requirements.
Just because it stays full doesn't mean you can neglect the park.

We stayed at Buffalo Point Campground for three nights and had a wonderful experience. The campground was clean, quiet, and very well maintained. The bathrooms were dated but the showers were clean and nice to use. Our campsite was great, and we really enjoyed our time there.
The river was absolutely beautiful, and the surrounding scenery was stunning. Everyone we met was friendly and welcoming, which made our stay even more enjoyable. Overall, this is a fantastic campground and a great place to stay. We would definitely come back and highly recommend it to anyone looking to enjoy the Buffalo National River area.

We would love to see internet available at the park. This helps with weather and river conditions.
