This is a great little hike that seems to be kind of unknown. It was a beautiful day and we didn’t run into anyone else on the trail. There are a couple of spots where you feel it in your legs, but overall an easy trek. Lots of interesting foliage and informational signs to help you identify it.

4 stars. We live here and hadn’t come here yet. Took the dogs and hiked the trails in couple hours. Nice old dam built in 1894 making it one of the oldest in the Ozark’s Good trails and a little steep in spots but relatively easily for most average hikers. Bring water as we didn’t see any place to fill here for us or the dogs. Fun quick easy place to visit. Road in can be a bit iffy in spots so SUV or higher clearance vehicles are recommended.

Kings River Overlook

This is a great family hike short enough for little ones but with enough features to keep little ones engaged. From the parking area, it's about .6 miles on a relatively flat, well-marked trial to the overlook. (Plenty of room to step off trail for social distancing) We went in April with three teenagers and a three-year-old and it was easy enough for the little guy to enjoy and not get tire...
