We had a wonderful weekend at Buffalo Point. We even got a chance to float from Spring Creek to Buffalo Point. It was beautiful!

We had excellent service, our site was clearly marked, there are so many trails and the river to enjoy. Be aware most do not allow pets so that's a huge hindrance. One of the prettiest places we've visited in the US. Worth the trip.

This was our first visit to the Ozarks. We spent two nights at the Buffalo National River campground in our RV, arriving just after several major thunderstorms. The river was too high and fast flowing for swimming and kayaking. The trails were moist but still walkable. The campground was neat but the showers were not in service when we were there. We wanted to visit the nearby Rush Valley Historic Village, but the concrete bridge crossing to the village was covered with flowing water although passable by car. Since we weren't sure what the condition of the area on the other side of the bridge was, we opted to turn back. Wish there had been a park ranger or some official posting to let us know whether the village was still accessible.

Campsite where we stayed were too crowded. The tents in site 47 were up against the back of our RV. River was high so not able to float. Trash containers were not convenient. Probably won’t camp here again. It was our first time. Beautiful area however

- Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
