Things to Do Nearby
The Little Missouri River is steps away from the back porch. Go trout fishing or swimming when the river isn’t generating—or enjoy kayaking or tubing when it is! The neighborhood is peaceful and great for morning walks, and there’s a short paved trail near the public access area with river views.
SWAHA Marina is just 2.2 miles away. You can rent a boat and play all day on beautiful Lake Greeson. Want a guided fishing adventure? Book a trip with Action Fishing Trips and reel in some crappie!
The world-famous Crater of Diamonds State Park is only 8 miles away. Explore, one of the only places in the world where the public can search for real diamonds in their original volcanic source—and yes, you keep what you find!
Stroll through the charming downtown square in Murfreesboro—home to local coffee shops, antique stores, local eateries, and an old-fashioned ice cream parlor. It’s a great way to spend a slow morning or a relaxing afternoon with the family.
29 miles north is Glenwood, the perfect spot to spend the day floating the Caddo River.
