AGFC Janet Huckabee Arkansas River Valley Nature Center

"Amazing nature center! The entire experience is hands-on, visually stunning, and kid friendly. Enjoyed the scavenger hunt, all the live animals, beautiful aquarium and educational displays and indoor birdwatching station. Daughter LOVED the Montessori-style kids nature room complete with animal pelts, taxidermy, live snakes and turtles, climbing fort, and outdoor deck and play area. So glad we visited! The highlight was the “Critter Crunch” at 2pm where we got to watch the rat snake eat a mouse."

"This place is an amazing resource for our community. Free to low-cost entertainment/educational activities for all ages. They offer fishing, an aquarium, a bird-watching corner, craft classes, boat rentals, fish feeding events, and more. I've been visiting for years and just hiked the trails for the first time today. I had no idea how expansive they were! It was great."

"We went here to have a fun budget friendly day. It was awesome we have 4 kids ages 13 ,7 ,6 and 2 and they all enjoyed themselves. They all got to fake fish with their little set up . It has alot of interaction with items. Thier are hiking trails as well."

"Really nice nature museum ! Park playground and walking trails , fishing canoeing and archery! Gift shop. Free admission to everyone. I love bringing my grandkids here ! Even in a rainy day there’s plenty of play inside."
