*** Review is during COVID-19 ***…read more Came here earlier in the summer and it was so fun. This is a great spot!!! We wanted to find a swimming hole one day, which I now know can be very difficult to do! After driving around and around to several different spots for hours, where place after place turned out to be unsuccessful or just nonexistent, we were almost ready to give up. Then we remembered one more spot we could try... a swimming hole we'd been to when I was a little kid, with surprisingly clear blue water. We couldn't remember the name at first, but after some calls to my Grandma (always a great resource!) she helped us remember that it was Little Blue! Little Blue was still a bit hard to track down, but we eventually made it there, and had FINALLY found a spot worth staying around for! The water was as pretty as we remembered. In the shallower parts, it's crystal clear and you can see lots of pretty rocks on the bottom and sometimes little fishies too! The deepest part becomes a pretty blue color, and the water went up to at least between my elbows and shoulders (maybe more?). That deepest part isn't a huge area, so a little hard to stake your claim on it if you are trying to social distance, but overall there's plenty of space to spread out. It seemed to me like there were two areas: the area I just described, and then more river down to the left of that. This second area is much less populated, but I can see why, as it kind of quickly starts to get a pretty fishy smell as you go further and also has some animal bones (yeah...). Aside from the water, there's also lots of parking space, where many people had also set up camp (as in literally to camp in a tent for the night). We went on a Saturday (reminder that this was also in the "heat" of summer, no pun intended) so there were quite a few people. However, we were still able to stay a safe distance from others... we did have to be pretty mindful of it though, since others did not appear to be doing the same. I would give 5 stars if it (and other swimming holes in Oklahoma) had better information for people to find and clearer locations/directions!!! It's honestly pretty ridiculous. Also because that second swimming area down to the left could use a little work.

The cave system here has numerous places for exploration. The hiking trails are well-maintained and offer wonderful exploration opportunities, including to waterfalls, water features plus high vantage points with a great view looking out over the scenery below. All of this is offered to the Ozark Mountains and free of charge, as the state parks offer visits for free sponsored by the state of Arkansas. This is a favorite place of ours to go, and we come at least once a year - usually in the spring and often times we will come a second or third time during the year in the fall too. For those who enjoy the great outdoors, this is not a place to be missed.

Natural Falls State Park is such a gem and absolutely worth the visit. The moment you step out of…read morethe parking lot, you're only a short, easy walk away from the breathtaking waterfall overlook. It's one of those views that hits you immediately, lush greenery, coolness in the air, and the kind of peaceful atmosphere that makes you want to linger a little longer. The park offers several amenities that make the visit comfortable and enjoyable. Clean restrooms, shaded picnic areas, a small playground, and well marked trails. Everything feels thoughtfully maintained, and the whole area has a calm, welcoming vibe. Once you've taken in the main waterfall, there are a few short hiking trails that branch off from the main path. They're easy and accessible for most people, with gentle terrain and plenty of spots to stop and enjoy the scenery. Even though the trails are simple, you should still bring a bottle of water. I noticed a lot of people wandering off onto nearby trails without anything to drink. I was out on the trails for an hour, and even though the temps were in the 70's, I still was glad I brought water.

I remember nearly everything about it, including how amazed I was this fantastic battlefield and State Park was located not too far from where I grew up. The museum is a great old building that is cool in its own right that it houses a world class museum about the confederate battle that took place on this site is also really amazing. The museum contains a gift shop with mini options for souvenirs and remembering your visit, which I still have some things that I purchased when I was in eighth grade and my first visit many many years ago now :-). The battlefield offers a drive-through interpretation with historic plaques and markers, and the ability to have a guided tour with commentary offered as well. One of the things we learned about when I came here as a use was the geography of the region. I hope you'll take time to also study the geography of the region and stop by this battlefield and state Park.
