Pack the station wagon, baby, because we’re going camping!

The little Pines Recreation Area offers lots of big recreation opportunities. There’s the sparkling Lake Hinkle where you can boat, fish, swim, or be a beach bum and enjoy the view. Back on land there are some great hiking trails to break in your boots, and a full service modern campground at which to pitch a tent. After a night by the campfire under Arkansas stars, you’ll be wanting s’mores (wink, wink)!
