They have birthday parties and day passes along with parents night out and summer and spring break camps. My kids were also excited to sign up for their seasonal classes including painting and gymnastics. The monthly family membership is only $45 which was cheaper than my single gym membership. They offer a military discount too, so we pay $36 a month for a family of 4. Workout classes are included and you get a discount on the kids' activity classes like gymnastics and swim lessons. Also, the free community food truck For the Love of NWA parks here on Mondays 530-630 for free dinner! Check this place out!

My son recently joined a boxing club and they were holding some matches at the Boys & Girls Club…read more There was construction on the roads all around the place and it was a chore to get to the parking lot. The club itself seemed fairly nice. From what I saw they had indoor and outdoor basketball courts, a baseball field, a TV area, a snack bar, and fairly clean bathrooms. I'm not sure about their after school activities but the place was well kept and clean.

Nice park, hidden away - at least to me. They have a basketball hoop, but it is in the parking lot,…read moreso if you want to play, hopefully there are not a lot of cars haha. They have a walkway/trail, playground, green area, and picnic area. The park is in the floodway of Town Branch Creek.

Creekside Park is easily my favorite nearby spot for rec sports. The basketball and tennis courts…read moreare always in good shape and rarely crowded, which makes it easy to just show up and play. The park has something for all ages, with multiple play areas and plenty of open space to hang out or run around. The only downsides are the volleyball court -- it definitely needs some refurbishing -- and the vending machines, which feel pretty outdated and could use an upgrade. Still, for casual pick-up games and outdoor fun, this park is tough to beat in the area.

Great local park. Very open with lots to do and always full of kids and teens playing. It has a…read moresidewalk walking trail around the whole park and lots of benches. There are basketball and tennis courts, a large Pavillion, restrooms, and ultimate frisbee areas throughout. There are always people walking dogs, and they have poop bags available and special locking trashcans. There are multiple parking lots on opposite sides of the park, and the whole area is surrounded by neighborhoods, so it's pretty quiet. There are 3 play areas - a newer ninja park with obstacle activities and a rubber floor, a tall slide and climbing playground, and an older little kid playground and swings in the shaded area by the creek. They have festivals and events here often.

Also known as Strickler in the Lee Creek Valley, these ATV trails butt up against Devil's Den State…read morePark. There are multiple trails, unmarked that span several miles. We have ridden for up to 8 hours and traveled over 30 miles encountering horseback riders, other atv riders, mountainbike riders, hikers and campers in the woods. The scenery is beautiful along Lee Creek and you have many opportunities to cross the creek on the trails. Some of the terrain is rough and rocky and beware of the mud puddles...if you cannot see the bottom, do not try to go through. We sunk a couple to the seat! Not only great for atv but hiking and taking in the swimming holes is a must. The scenery is great. Check out my personal pics To reach Devil's Den State Park, travel eight miles south of Fayetteville on I-540 to Exit #53 (West Fork), then go approx 17 miles southwest on Ark. 170. You will take a right onto 220 which turns into a dirt road, travelling past the horseback rider camp and day use area. There are several unloading areas on the right and left down 220 to start your trail adventure

Natural Falls State Park is located in West Siloam Springs, Oklahoma, 6 miles from the border with…read moreArkansas. If you're coming to Natural Falls for barbecuing, picnicking, short hiking, lounging around and camping...then this park is for you. I was scrolling through Google Maps and discovered a photo that looked intriguing. It was a picture of a 77 foot plunging waterfall among a scenic backdrop known as Ozark Springs. This Ozark Springs waterfall is the #1 top highlight at the park. The rest of the activities (I believe) are side compliments. So...if you're passing through West Siloam Springs, it could be worthwhile to check out Ozark Springs, and it doesn't take long to do. The trails map says 45 minutes, but it can be finished in less. The walk to the falls is half a mile at the most. You can find Ozark Springs along the Dripping Springs Trail. There are two parts to capturing views. First is from an overlook point high above. After completing this lookout spot, then it's 47 steps down to the bottom. The base of Ozark Falls has a boardwalk pathway leading you in front of the waterfall. I was tempted to step off the boardwalk to avoid the hand railing when taking pictures, but that wasn't not allowed. Also unfortunately, they don't permit swimming in the pool that Ozark Falls splashes into. But the waters appeared refreshing. You can connect Dripping Springs Trail with Ghost Coon Trail to combine two hikes in one. Or otherwise you can return to the Dripping Springs Trailhead and either choose another pathway or hang out, have lunch and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. There are a few other trails you can consider, but they're nothing dramatic. - Fox Den Trail - 1.5 miles to a "rock overhang and cavern area". - Bear Trail - hardly a hike but leads to Ozark Springs and intersects with Dripping Springs Trail. - Pine Ridge Trail - 3/4th's of a mile that navigates the perimeter of Natural Falls Park. It's $10 entrance fee for a day pass. You can pay at the Visitor Center. Plus inside the VC, you can purchase souvenirs from a small selection of items or buy snacks and drinks if you haven't arrived prepared. I noticed they have a lot of space for camping. Although I didn't spend a night here, the conditions for sleeping outdoors looked inviting. Btw...while walking along Ghost Coon Trail, I passed by these Yurts, or I'd describe them as huts accommodative for "glamping" or glorified camping. It's like upscale camping staying in tent - cabins. There may have been 5 - 6 yurts located beside the grass edge of the forest and pleasant looking for enjoying the great outdoors. Overall, Natural Falls State Park has a quiet setting and is fine for taking a few hours to breathe in fresh air, especially if you're in no hurry. Although I wanted more challenging hiking trails and activities to keep me occupied, I was okay with taking a lazy day to appreciate nature.
