Lake Greeson

A reservoir called Lake Greeson is located on the Little Missouri River, about 10 kilometers (six miles) north of the Arkansas city of Murfreesboro. It is bordered by 15 parks that are known for their scenic beauty and recreational options, including camping, fishing, boating, biking, and swimming. Narrows Dam, which gets its name from the "Narrows" neighborhood where it is built, creates the lake. Martin White Greeson, a developer, is honored with the name Lake Greeson. Daisy State Park is also located near the lake.

There is 72 km of public hiking, biking, and wildlife paths at Lake Greeson. There is a nature walk trail at the Parker Creek Recreational Area that allows you to explore the surrounding beauty and wildlife of an ancient Cinnabar Mine. Before the lake was created in 1950, the Cinnabar Mine was a well-liked mine during the 1930s and 1940s. Riders can travel 50 kilometers (31 miles) around the lake on the Bear Creek Cycle Trail. Riders travel through a pine-covered forest and naturally rolling hills on the trail.

The little community of Murfreesboro, which is close to the Crater of Diamonds State Park, is located next to Lake Greeson. There are many leisure areas in the Murfreesboro area. The Kirby Landing Campground in the lake's eastern arms has more than 100 campsites available. In addition, a marina, swimming beach, and boat ramp are available at this recreation facility. The lake is an excellent place to observe bald eagles flying close to the shore during the winter.
