About this campground

Fairport State Recreation Area Campground

Fairport State Recreation Area Campground in eastern Arkansas offers primitive, first-come, first-served campsites near the Mississippi River. There are no reservations or permits required, but a small nightly fee applies. Amenities are minimal—expect vault toilets, no drinking water, and no hookups. Sites typically include fire rings and picnic tables, and RVs may access the area, though it’s best for smaller rigs. The setting is quiet and scenic, with river views and wooded surroundings attracting anglers, birders, and paddlers. Nearby, the Mississippi River State Park offers trails and interpretive programs. Spring and fall are ideal for camping due to mild weather and fewer mosquitoes.
