Sylamore Creek/Blanchard Springs (camp, hike, paddle, play)

event leader/contact:  Dee Jaye Teutsch at tdeejaye@gmail.com

This campout and creek run is being geared up for the grandkids, and grownups that want to have a good old creek campout fun time in the Ozarks-St. Francis National Forest.

A good old partial primitive camp in the mountains. Bring a tent, RV or rent a cabin.

I will be taking my own kayaks to run different parts of the river pending water levels of Sylamore Creek and the White River. If you come, I would suggest the same to bring your own. There are kayak rentals in that area.  But we may not be paddling the same locations that outfitters take you.  Kayaking will be pending water levels and weather.

Cell phone service in many areas will be very limited to none. Best to let me know ahead that you are coming.

WE DO NOT HAVE A SET SCHEDULE. All plans are Water & Weather and grandkid pending . We will make plans on whatever we decide from day to day depending on weather & water. GO WITH THE FLOW Schedule!

We may lay in the creek all day and drink beer and play with the kiddos. We may bounce from spot to spot. We will make those decisions day by day. Campout, cookout creeking fun.

Blanchard Springs Campground which is a COE camp. It has hot showers and a nice bath house but no running water or electricity at the campsites. But does have water access at the bathhouse to fill your jugs with. It is a first come first serve site. $15 per night.

There are a lot of nice swimming holes and hiking trails to play in and see in this area. There are caverns to explore, horseback riding, fishing and kayaking and more.

There are other RV campgrounds with cabins along the White River in Allison Arkansas.  See those links below.

Check out the web links to all these areas I have listed to get all the COE information on the locations.

Several of us are at Sylanore Creek Campgrounds
