Overview

Kick back and relax at one of Oakland's 32 campsite with electric and water hookups. Visit the easily accessible marina or get on the lake to fish or participate in water sport activities on Bull Shoals Lake.

Recreation

The lake is a water sports paradise. Marinas offer boat rentals, supplies and guides for hire. Year-round fishing tournaments keep fishermen active as they seek out 12-pound bass and other species ranging from pan fish to walleye. The lake holds several state fishing records and the nearby White River is a premier trout fishery in the central United States.

Facilities

Oakland Park offers 32 campsites, all with water and electric hookups, and one group shelter.

Amenities like hot showers, flush toilets, a dump station, boat ramp, swimming area and playground make this campground popular among boaters, fishermen and families.

Natural Features

Bull Shoals Lake, spanning upwards of 71,000 acres, is fed from the White River. The river flows from northwest Arkansas to south-central Missouri, and then loops back into central Arkansas where it eventually flows into the Mississippi River. The lake is lined with hardwoods and cedar.

Nearby Attractions

Cruise around the lake to see nearly 20 other public parks and hundreds of miles of undeveloped land and coves around the lake, which include additional swim areas and 11 marinas.

The description, directions and fees are the Army Corps of Engineers’s own words, from its record on Recreation.gov.
