When we to Mount Nebo in Arkansas last March we took a side trip to visit Lake Catherine State Park near Hot Springs. Lake Catherine is a beautiful park with many facilities for recreation, but I’m sure you won’t be surprised to learn that what drew us to the park was a waterfall.
Falls Creek Falls is one of the favorite falls used in advertisements for Arkansas State Parks. We didn’t find much water going over the falls, but the hike to the falls was very easy and pleasant. Part of the hike was through the woods to the lake and then along the shore to Falls Creek. We then hiked a short distance up the creek to the falls.
All in all we had a couple of very pleasant hours at Lake Catherine State Park. We had a beautiful day, a nice hike, and of course we were able to add another waterfall to our collection.

I’m grateful for all the people who work so hard to make our parks wonderful places to visit.

George, we do tend to forget about our state park workers so I’m glad you mentioned them….The US has so many beautiful parks and we tend to take them for granted…Thanks for the heads up!!!
