Phil,

Donna and I stopped by and I took a few photos.

A few notes:

If you are coming from the west when you see the sign you have but a couple hundred feet to turn. We missed it.

The campground was rather busy and I would guess there were just a half a dozen sites not occupied about 10:30 on Sunday morning.

There was a stock car practicing across the highway at some racetrack. I couldn't see it but could hear it.

To the east in West Siloam Springs there is a large casino.

The falls are beautiful.

yea, Nathan,

when you come from the west you see the sign and its pretty close to the entrance (kinda bad)

when you come from the east theres a sigh and then a left turn lane into the
road to the park, a little easier to see.


they have races at the track, when I was there in May, you could hear em

but I didnt think is was really too noticeable.


thanks

Phil

I wasn't impressed with the road signs in Oklahoma :roll: Somewhere before Natural Falls I needed to turn and the darn signs were around the corner down the street I needed to turn on!

The park is small but beautiful. The campground is nestled back in the pines and is similar to area B in Petit Jean in Arkansas - perhaps a bit more condensed. We just visited the falls and did not follow the other trail - that will have to be another trip.
