Rex Hancock Black Swamp Campground offers primitive camping at four designated areas along the Cache River, with the largest and most-used facility located at the end of an all-weather road east of Gregory, featuring a boat ramp and parking area.

The site provides access for fishing (trotlines for catfish, and seasonal crappie and bass) and paddling via boat launch ramps at Gregory Access and Float Road Access, though waterfowl season brings significant access restrictions and boat limitations.

Visitors should note that mosquitoes are prevalent during summer and fall months, high water conditions can make navigation difficult, and a free annual General Use Permit is required for all hunting and trapping activities.
