Wooded campground and day-use area on the edge of Poteau offering trails, picnic shelters and quiet forest scenes — good for intimate nature compositions, autumn color, and night-sky shots. Visit at golden hour for warm side-light in the trees and at night for low-light Milky Way work. Accessible by car with small parking areas; check local signs for fee or seasonal closures. Weekdays are quieter; expect muddy trails after rain.
