Richland Creek Recreation Area

Long twisting road in. Great sites with gravel pads, picnic tables and fire rings. A short walk down goes to a nice swimming part of the river. There's a 2.5 mile trek which involves crossing two rivers and takes you to twin falls and Richland falls, nice walk and stunning waterfalls at the end. The start of the hike is across Falling Water Creek, next to the campground. If you look across the Creek you can see a large sign showing the trail. The trail itself is well warn and very easy to follow. This place was packed during memorial day weekend, but it emptied out completely during the week. The water spigot was not working, and hadn't been for a while.

Beautiful secluded campground on two creeks with multitudes of water falls in the area. Great swimming hole. sometimes fills up on weekends, but there are also several "dispersed" sites along the road. Awesome scenery and hiking. On the Ozark highlands trail. Research before you go, no good trail directions on site, and deep in the valley, so no cell service. nearest store is Witts Springs which is a half hour plus ride back out. Primitive camping for Vans/truck campers/tent camping, or very small trailers etc. Mountain Roads, but reasonably well maintained.
