About Buck Creek (mo)

Relax in the shaded campsites at Buck Creek, on the Arkansas side of the massive Bull Shoals Lake. Here, there's plenty of opportunities for water sports, hiking and picnicking. The Peel Ferry, the last remaining state-operated ferry in Arkansas, leaves from Buck Creek. It connects Highway 125 from Arkansas to Missouri for convenient access to the lowers stretches of the lake.

Camping was great as always. We were not happy that the courtesy dock is not being maintained. It is out of the water and no where near the launch. It made it so that one person in our group could not get into our boat at all. Why is the Corp not maintaining it?

It was the worst campground we have ever been to, the bah rooms was so dirty, tolet paper was all over the
tolet, and floor you would not want to take a shower in there, and it was that way for days so we never got to
take a shower all that week. We had garbage all around our camp site, and most of the fire pits was not cleaned
out so we had to clean them up our self.
The people was parking there vehicles on the grass were there was grass mostly dirt, and people parking there vehicles on the road were it made it hard to get around them.
The care takers only went through the park ONE time all week.
When I went to the check in booth there NEVER WAS THERE WERE WE COULD TAKE TO THEM ABOUT THE PROBLEM THEY WERE IN THERE CAMPER EATING, SLEEPING AT 11:00 AM WHY WASN'T THEY TAKING CARE OF THE PARK LIKE THEY SHOULD BE DOING AND NOT SLEEPING AT THAT TIME OF DAY.
A cleaning company come by to clean the bath rooms just a few times a week. They done a very poor job at cleaning the bath rooms, NO ONE WOULD WANT TO TAKE A SHOWER IN THE DIRTY BATH ROOM, WE HAD TO TAKE A BATH AFTER WE GOT HOME.
WE WILL NIVER GO THERE AGAIN.

All the sites at Buck Creek have concrete slaps to park your RV and many have a permanent cabana type cover over the picnic table. The camp host was friendly and helpful. The only downfall is the lake level. Bull Shoals has suffered from high lake levels due to Table Rock Lake maintaining water levels. The campground has 38 sites and only 18 were available due to flooding. There is no beach and even the kids playground is underwater. That didn't seem to effect the kids we saw swimming out to the flooded playground to play anyway. All in all, we enjoyed our stay and will go back. Unfortunately the lake level issue doesn't appear to be going away anytime soon.
