Daisy State Park, AR

While we were vacationing in Arkansas to dig for gems at the Crater of Diamonds, we tent camped at Daisy State Park about 30 minutes away. This State Park may be a little on the smaller side but it’s beauty more than makes up for it! We mainly chose it because it’s on Lake Greeson & our tent site was right on the water, which we love because we brought our canoe!

The staff were all super friendly & the park ranger had to rescue our canoe that decided to drift off while we were at Crater of Diamonds lol. You’ve got to watch out for that rising water if you for some reason decide not to tie your water vessel up (insert eye rolling & laughing emoji here). They have RV sites, tent sites & even 2 yurts that we were drooling over!

Daisy SP has some fun activities, beautiful view, fishing, kayaking, lake swimming & walking trails! We highly recommend staying here!

One thing we will note is make sure you put up all food & shiny objects before you leave. We came back one day to find some crows tearing though our pop up aluminum foil sheets & a new pack of face wipes while a gluttonous squirrel that got into, and ate, a whole bag of 1000 grand mini candy bars of ours was so stuffed that it was lying completely sprawled out on the concrete edging of our site and could barely move when we pulled up. It was hilarious.

If you visit, make sure to stop in to SweetPea’s for a bite to eat! It’s a super adorable place with friendly staff & some tasty food! The menu is on the wall & you just tell them what you want at the window then have a seat & wait on the deliciousness to be served up!

All & all it was a great trip & we highly recommend staying at Daisy State Park!
