About Buck Creek (MO)

The Peel Ferry, the last remaining state-operated ferry in Arkansas, leaves from Buck Creek.

Great campground. Loved the stone picnic table and awning over the top of it at each site. The spacing between each site was really nice. Clean bathroom and showers. If your looking for a place to get away it's here. Hardly any cell service but still able to call and text in certain locations, but a nice place to just set the phone down and enjoy time camping.
