Arkansas River - Toad Suck Ferry Lock and Dam

A cool feature and awesome camping destination situated along the scenic Arkansas River, Toad Suck Ferry Lock and Dam forms good-looking pools that are the stuff of any water lover’s dreams. Boat ramps, fishing opportunities, and picnicking are all readily available here. With the Ozark Mountains to one side and the Ouachita range to the other, the views can’t be beat! What’s more, any nature or photography buff will be spoiled for choice when it comes to picturesque area foliage and flowering fauna (including dogwood, wild plum, and redbud). Spring and fall are ideal times to witness colorful natural transformations of the landscape. Paved access roads make getting around easy. You might see some toads, but this place absolutely doesn’t suck!
