Greer Crossing Recreation Area
A you exit the highway, the campground is located to the left with campsites located off of a loop road that circles through the campground. If you stay straight you will get to the boat launch and day use area. This campground is primarily used by people using the river. It’s a nice flat, level area immediately adjacent to the highway. This campground is a hub that puts you in the vicinity of Greer Mill, Greer Spring , and numerous other historic mills and springs. There are several historic sites in the area also. These sites are not within walking distance, but are a reasonable drive away along Highway 19. When you access the site from the river, it will be located on the right-hand side. Camping The campground is set back away from the water’s edge. A campground host is on site in the summer. Sites, which offer seclusion and privacy, each with a table, fire ring, and lantern post. Picnicking and Boating A picnic area is near the boat access. The boating access is one of the most popular launch sites for people floating the Eleven Point. Hiking There is one trail available for hikers; a 4-mile trail that follows the river and through typical Ozark hills up to McCormack Lake then circles back for a 2 mile walk back to Greer. This trail runs along the river and then back along the hillside above the river. Fishing Fishing is plentiful, there are rainbow trout, small mouth bass, and sunfish, just to name a few.
