Vision Realty, The Real Estate Professionals.

This park-natural area extends for 11 miles along the wild and scenic Cossatot River.  The river forms Cossatot Falls, a rugged and rocky canyon that challenges most experienced canoeists and kayakers with its Class IV rapids.

Floatable river levels are usually limited to late-fall, winter and spring.  For river stage information (in Feet) from Highway 246 access, call 870-387-3141.  Due to flow levels dependent upon rainfall, no floater services are provided.

The Brushy Creek Recreation Area at the Highway 246 bridge offers day-use facilities including picnic sites, a nature trail, restrooms, and river access.  A walkway high above the river provides barrier-free access on the west side.

Cossatot River State Park-Natural Areas (CRSPNA) 5,302 acres emphasize outdoor recreation, river preservation and environmental education.  Interpretive programs are available by request.  The park is managed by Arkansas State Parks and the Arkansas Natural Heritage Commission.

Rate Schedule
6 Tent Sites are available at the rate of $8 per day
Winter Rates during Jan-Feb-Dec except for holidays and special events are 1/2 the regular rate.
