The natural beauty of Petit Jean Mountain inspired the creation of the Arkansas State Parks system.  Combining rustic-style with modern conveniences, facilities of log and stone constructed by the Civilian Conservation Corps are nestled throughout the park.

The focal point is Mather Lodge, a grand 24-room hostelry overlooking scenic Cedar Creek Canyon.  A meal at the lodge restaurant guarantees a breathtaking view and a dramatic sunset each evening.

Nearby are 32 fully-equipped cabins (20 with kitchens), many of which share the same bluff as the lodge.  The canyon is the work of Cedar Creek, which cascades as a spectacular 95-foot waterfall.  Upstream, a rock dam forms Lake Bailey, 170 acres for fishing and pedal boating.  A boathouse offers a snack bar, boat rentals, supplies during the summer.

Park campsites (127 Class A including Premium and Preferred sites) are situated near Lake Bailey and in secluded woodlands.  The park also offers a Group Camp Area, a Rally-style Area, two "Rent-A-Camp" sites, two "Rent-A-Tepee" sites.  The airport offers six Fly-in Class A campsites.

Petit Jean's airport is open for daytime use only.  All FBO flight services are available.  To reserve a Fly-in campsite or arrange for shuttle service to other park facilities, call 1-800-344-5907.

The park also offers picnic areas, playgrounds, pavilions, a recreation hall, launch ramp, pool and tennis courts.

Hiking trails lead you along forests, canyons, streams, meadows and mountainsides.  Interpreters host programs and special events highlighting the resources of this unforgettable state park.  Petit Jean Mountain is also home to the Museum of Automobiles, a showcase of antique and classic cars.
