White Rock Mountain Recreation Campground

White Rock Mountain Recreation Campground offers nine primitive tent campsites (with a few accommodating small RVs/pop-ups) at $15/night, plus rustic stone cabins and a lodge, all situated at 2,309 feet elevation in the Ozark National Forest.

The facility serves as a major trailhead for the easy 2-mile White Rock Rim Trail, the 17-mile Shores Lake loop, and the 170-mile Ozark Highlands Trail, with an onsite general store providing maps, firewood, and supplies.

Access involves 12+ miles of gravel forest roads from I-40 Exit 24; sites feature tent pads, fire rings, vault toilets, and drinking water but no hookups, and a $3 day-use fee applies for non-overnight visitors.
