Living up to its billing as “The Natural State”, the state is a nature wonderland with three national forests, nearly 9,000 miles of pristine streams and rivers, awe-inspiring settings in the Ozark and Quachita mountains and sparkling lakes.
The menu of vacation experiences is an exciting one. For great golf, spas, horse racing and the Hot Springs National Park, Hot Springs is the place to go. Outdoor enthusiasts love the Ozark Mountains where activities like canoeing, rafting, kayaking, fishing, hiking and rock climbing are popular. The mountain village of Eureka Springs, with its streets lined with Victorian homes, is brimming with boutiques, antique shops and art galleries. Wine enthusiasts love the Arkansas Wine Country, encompassing the towns of Paris, Ozark and Altus, where German style wines are produced. From its ancient mountains to the Delta flatlands leveled by the Mississippi River, the state has a diverse topography with numerous scenic drives. Try the Pig Trail, Ozark Highlands and Sylamore scenic byways in the Ozark National Forest designated by the U.S. Forest Service. Golfers love the state because greens fees are extremely affordable for great courses. A few excellent public access courses are Sage Meadows in Jonesboro, Stonebridge Meadows in Fayetteville and the Mountain Ranch Course in Fairfield Bay.

The house in which Bill Clinton was born and lived the first four years of his life.
Revisited AR on 11/7/2019 specifically to visit the Clinton Boyhood Home, and other Park sites in surrounding states. Was totally impressed. Clinton is my President, and the Park site tells a humble, incredible story of a boy who was destined for greater things, but not without hard work and determination. His mother and grandparents are heroes. Loved the movie, house tour, railroad tracks across the street, and the famous staircase. The best part of the visit was Ranger Mike. Super guy and so informative and friendly. Had a personal tour of the house, and will never forget it. Thank you, Mike! Outstanding experience and visit! So nice to meet you and experience this amazing Park Site! Keep up the great work! Tim Libby - Phoenix, AZ

The Old Mill is truly a BEAUTIFUL place...in all seasons! In spring, there are many photo sessions there for High School Proms teens. Weddings occur there regularly. Many out of state tourist (and locals) come by to see a setting used in the movie "Gone With the Wind". The Mill and the lake are just a peaceful place to sit on a historic bench and contemplate life...now, and as it once was...quieter.... There are new features...a new waterfall, restored mill wheel, and a general sprucing up! If you have not been in awhile, or even since the magnificent surrending trees have gained their glorious fall dressings, its time to revisit! Quick, before the next season dresses the Mill in all white!

Love these road side attractions, they are SO America! They have a great collection and plenty of souvenirs, we grabbed a bunch of post cards and sent them out from the post office next door.

We were in town for a funeral and stayed at a hotel right on the square. We really enjoyed walking around to see all of the beautiful holiday lights & check out the food trucks. The lights really made our photos fantastic!
