| State Park Overview: |
 | Lee Creek Valley, a picturesque setting in northwest Arkansas's Ozarks Mountains--ancient sedimentary mountains renowned for their natural beauty and lush oak-hickory forest--was selected as a park site in the 1930s. The Civilian Conservation Corps used native materials to craft the park's CCC/Rustic Style, wood and stone structures that include an impressive native stone dam that spans Lee Creek in the heart of the park forming peaceful 8-acre Devil's Lake. Rental canoes, tandem kayaks, pedal boats and water bikes are available at the park.
Hiking, backpacking and mountain bike trails lead to backcountry areas of Devil's Den State Park and the surrounding Ozark National Forest.Sixteen fully-equipped cabins featuring kitchens and fireplaces are nestled in the natural beauty of this park. The cabins are available throughout the year. Their wood-burning fireplaces are available for use from mid-September thru mid-May.
A park cafe and swimming pool (both open in summer only) overlook the lake. Groceries, gifts and snacks can be purchased at the park store. |

Love the caves
I have been going here since I was a child, and it is still my favorite place to go and just get away from it all.

| Camping: |
| Campsites [144 sites: 44 Premium A, 12 Standard B, 13 Standard C, 24 Standard D (no hookups), 8 Hike-in (tent only) and 43 sites with water and electricity in the Horse Camp] are spaced along the valley. |
| Trails: |
| Hiking, backpacking and mountain bike trails lead to backcountry areas of Devil's Den State Park and the surrounding Ozark National Forest.
Miles of hiking and multiple use trails wind through Devil's Den and the surrounding Ozark National Forest. Caves, crevices and bluff overlooks can be explored here. Take a wet-water hike down Lee Creek, or trek the 15-mile Butterfield Hiking Trail. This well-maintained trail from the park through the Ozark National Forest leads backpackers deep into the hills and hollows of the rugged scenic Ozarks. Backpackers can choose from two primitive camp areas. This is a hilly hike past bluffs and boulders in one of the largest crevice areas in North America. Hikers are required to obtain a free backcountry permit at the visitor center before venturing onto this trail. |
