Alley Spring Campground is located at Jacks Fork River mile-marker 31. Operated by the NPS, it is open year round. Alley Spring may be a big campground, but it's a wonderful place to camp in the Ozark National Scenic Riverways. It's not merely a beautiful place on the Jacks Fork River, but a historical one as well. The Alley Spring Community once thrived in this pretty river bottom, anchored by the Alley Mill, which still stands next to the deep, clear pool of Alley Spring. When you're not on the river, you can hike a trail around the millpond or explore the old mill on one of the organized tours offered during the summer months.
