Ozark-St. Francis National Forests

Two distinct forests rolled into one package! That means twice the amount of outdoorsy goodness to explore. The Ozark National Forest covers most of the Ozark Mountains, including the highest peak in the state. It’s awesome here when the dogwood and redbuds bloom in the spring, and when the leaves change color in the fall. The St. Francis National Forest is more diverse, with the St. Francis and Mississippi Rivers running through it, as well as lakes, valleys, and tons of wildlife. It’s the only place in the national forest system where you can access the Mississippi River from the shore, so that right there is a must do! The whole expanse of land is filled with multi-use trails, hundreds of campsites, spots for swimming, fishing, and boating, and even some amazing caves to explore. Mother Nature crushing it as usual.

Wilbur D. Mills Lock and Dam (aka Pool 2) is located on the part of the Arkansas Post Canal that connects the Arkansas River with the White River.

Come for the convenience, stay for the lakes. Just one hour from Memphis and 25 miles from the historic Old Miss campus, John W.

The 96-person ballroom located at the visitors center is just enough room for a family-friendly game of musical chairs and the Mallard Point Golf Course will keep the all the uncles safely entertained. Don’t forget to rent a cabin for Grandma and Grandpa–who else will teach all the kids how to properly fish for catfish and crappie?

Weekend Trip to Home Place Pastures

We spent the weekend tent camping at Home Place Pastures. It was a great site, with great people, and even some great food at the farm store on site! We found a lot of eating options in the town of Como, also. It is also located within driving distance of Memphis. Will definitely have a return trip here
