Camp Noark

Camp Noark is 300 acres of Ozark hills, meadows, and valleys located near Huntsville in Northwest Arkansas. Ideally located in northwestern Arkansas at the heart of the Ozarks, Huntsville is just 25 miles east of Fayetteville, home of the Arkansas Razorbacks. Huntsville is served by US Highway 412 and State Highway 74. The modern air-conditioned Friendship Lodge, the historic Chalet, and the Troop House make this an ideal place for year-round camping opportunities. Additionally, the camp is home to an arts and crafts center, dining hall, hiking trails, large open playing fields and two platform tent units. All living units have pavilions with fireplaces and running water. Hot water outdoor showers and latrine toilets are located in each unit, and modern toilet facilities are available in main camp. Older campers can take on the challenge of primitive camping, and girls can pitch their own tents (provided) as part of their outdoor adventure.
