Getaway Fishing Camps in Arkansas

The Ozark region of northern Arkansas has some of the best game fishing in the country and it's also some of the prettiest wilderness region you will ever see. There are so many camps and campsites that's great for guys who want to just get away from the city stress and take some overnights with their buddies just fishing and hunting. I found some that were perfect for this and all are very near the White River, famous for its prized trout.

Get together a group of men friends and scurry over to the Cotter Trout Dock in Arkansas. You'll have a campground right on the great White River with 15 acres. A commissary boat will go ahead and even prepare all meals for the hungry fishermen--what could be more blissful for men wanting a weekend or longer off with friends? Overnight trips last from 2 to 5 days. Float either the Buffalo or the White Rivers where the fishing is just magnificent. Everything is provided at the base camp on the 15-acre private island on the White River--meals, linens, pillows, cots, gas, linens, ice chests, paddles and even lanterns. Any fish you keep will be cleaned and iced! Trips are $300 per day for three people, and then down from there. This would be a great bonding trip for father-son. Call toll-free at 1-800-364-GAME

Another overnight fishing trip campsite is the Rainbow Drive Resort on the White River again. Weekly rates for the cabins are just $260 for parties 6 or under. But weekly rates for tent camping is only $116. It costs $90 for a full day's rental of a johnboat, and it's $45 for rental of a canoe, including shuttle. There's parking, and campers can bring one pet if 30 lbs. or under. There's also a shower house for cleanup and electrical outlets and sink in the kitchen area. Bring an electric skillet to cook those trout, but you can cook on the grill provided with each cabin and eat like a king! Contact information is rainbow@mtnhome.com or call (870) 430-5217.

Unlimited Sportsmen's Cabin is also near the White River and it can comfortably sleep six in its two-bedroom cabin. All provisions are supplied--cookware, fish fryer, microwave and coffee maker, and much more. You won't have to bring a single thing except tackle, and there's even a Springhouse for dressing out game and fishing catches. Crawfish and minnows fill the bait box for your fresh bait. The cabin's two miles from the River, or people can fish for bass in the warmer waters of the Buffalo. On the nearby Norfolk Lake you can also catch crappie, bass, walleye and catfish. The cabin rental is $80 per night with $10 each for additional person. Bring a pet will also be $10 per night. But he does ask for an $80 deposit in advance. This cabin would be great for guys who have boats but don't want to spend time doing anything but getting on the river and lake to fish or hunting in the nearby Sylamore District of the Ozark National Forest.
