Overview

Henderson Park is surrounded by the clear waters of Norfork Lake. Spectacular lake views and plenty of secluded coves for water sports and breezy, open stretches for sailing, make Norfork Lake a popular area for recreationists.

Recreation

Hiking trails in the area lead nature observers and photographers to picturesque overlooks of the Ozarks. A wide array of fresh water game fish are found in the lake, which is fed by the North Fork River and its tributaries. Bass, walleye, crappie, bream and catfish all make their home here.

Facilities

The campground offers 36 campsites, all with electric hookups and water available for filling holding tanks. All campsites have a picnic table and campfire ring and grill. A marina and boat ramp are on hand for easy access to water sports.

Natural Features

Norfork Lake covers 22,000 acres with 550 miles of shoreline. Densely wooded hills and hollows surround the lake in the Ozark Mountains. The North Fork River feeds into the lake, and beyond the dam, extends on to connect with the White River.

Nearby Attractions

Including Henderson Park, there are 19 developed U.S. Army Corps of Engineers’ parks lining the lake for plenty of water sport opportunities. The Robinson Point National Recreation Trail and the David's Trail offer beautiful hiking opportunities and are just a short drive away. Drive just over 10 miles to visit the town of Mountain Home, considered one of the best places to live for sportsmen.

To start, the option to only book one night (Friday night) was unavailable; it was only book able to reserve both Friday and Saturday nights... we were out the money for an extra night we didn't stay and couldn't get ahold of anyone on the phone to fix this issue. I understand the need to book a full weekend if it had happened to be a holiday, but it was not. Secondly, this was very rocky and uneven for tent camping. Possibly an oversight on our part, but I didn't see where it mentioned which spots were better for tents. Overall the kids had a good time and we enjoyed our rainy day at camp.

Great views of the sunset over the lake. Camp host was super nice. Rec.gov needs to be updated for this camp ground though, most sites do not have water hookups. Dump station is across the highway.

The park was nice and our stay was enjoyable but we did receive incorrect information from rec.cov about our site. There is community water available, and some site are closer than others. But the site we had was over 100 feet from water hookup. Our hoses weren't long enough. I had asked this question twice before booking and was told wrong information twice. It would have been easier if we had correct information.
