Part of the National Park Service located on the Current River. Reservations are required to camp. Very pretty area. Canoe rental. Nice bath facilities. Don't forget to check out inspiration Point at EE and 19. Pretty views and a little picnic area.

Great waterfront access and shady campsites. Expect your tent to flood if it rains because the sites don't drain. Due to a 2024 storm, there's only one shower and bathroom facility at the end of the campground.

Beautiful place to camp. Pulltite Spring is wonderful site. Floating the Current River is the best way to spend a hot summer day.

The camp ground was so clean and quiet. Very well maintained. Shower and bath facilities were much appreciated. We camped on the river side and could hear woodpeckers and the water running. We watched shooting stars from the river side. The fire pits have grates which is marvelous for making dinner.

Pulltite is a really nice campground that needs a little fixing up. I think its kinda ridiculous that the Main Bathrooms and Showerhouse is still in disrepair from flooding in November of 2023...??? Also, the make shift restroom was very dirty and smelly the first day of the campout. 2nd day someone cleaned them. No Camp Host...The Store, AMAZING!!! Everything You might need. Pulltite is kinda lik... Pulltite is a really nice campground that needs a little fixing up.

Pulltite is kinda like an Oasis in the Desert for Paddlers... HOWEVER...Put Your food away when not in use. I can not stress this enough if You don't want the Local Trash Pandas swiping anything the little mongrels can get their hands on...And they are Fast!!!
