Located south of Mena. The northern route to the park is via Ark. 246 between Vandervoort and Athens. The southern route is via U.S. 278 between Wickes and Umpire.
The scenery is beautiful but all around was a terrible. The campground was not very clean and had obviously been disregarded by park rangers for a long period of time. Worst of all the park rangers made me and my family very uncomfortable and we never felt like we had a moment to ourselves. We spent the day there and one park rangers visited our site more than a dozen times while we were the only campers in the campgrounds. Made wife uncomfortable with weird and unsettling remarks. Would not recommend to anyone. I will not be going back and will not take my family near here again. If there was a 0 star rating, it would be selected.
I love swimming and taking my family here.. Its very close to home, I dont however enjoy not even being able to get a parking spot on the weekends because of all of the... If your from here you know what I'm talking about
Not recommend to go at all it's very dangerous the road with a family car, can have a flat tire and there are no signal at all like six miles on a rustic road, after you get off the normal and pavimented road.. river are nice very interesting.. restrooms are totally unclean nasty..
Been coming here since I was a kid. One of the best swimming holes around. So peaceful and beautiful.
