MORO BAY STATE PARK
Moro Bay State Park is a beautiful nearby getaway that
stands out for many reasons, including its unique location
at the convergence of Raymond Lake, Moro Bay, and the
Ouachita River. This beauty can be accessed in many ways
including by boat, hiking, and kayaking. " It
all depends on what you are looking for, " says
Paul Butler, superintendent at Moro Bay State
Park. " Some come to just relax and enjoy the
view on the back porch of one of our premier
cabins and that can be done without leaving
the park, " he says. " However, the beauty of
the area is best seen out on the water by boat
or kayak. I recommend the bay for viewing
the natural wildlife and large scenic cypress trees and a ¼
mile paddle to the local sandbar if its June or July. A trip up
or down the river is also fun and enjoyable, as you can see
many local camps, wildlife, and more. "
From Memorial Day to Labor Day, the park offers regular
weekend programs and boat tours on the Ouachita River.
Visitors can rent boats, boat slips, or kayaks at the park's
marina. For those with their own boat, the park also has the
BEST
only marina on the Ouachita River in Arkansas with gas and
boat slips for rent. The park offers year-round fishing and
birding. " The Low Water Trail in the early morning is a great
place to see multiple species of woodpeckers, songbirds, a
few species of hawks, barred owls, and the occasional Bald
Eagle, " says Butler. " For wading birds, it's best
to visit from late July to early September, and
boat up in the shallow areas of the bay. From
there you can see wood storks, several species
of herrings, egrets galore, and other wading
birds. "
STAYCATION
As to overnight options, the five wellfurnished
cabins at Moro Bay State Park are
on stilts and offer a bird's eye view over the
water. The campground, which was completely redesigned
and rebuilt recently, is all 50 amp with sewer and water and
all sites are 60 feet long, with most being on the water. An
on-site enclosed outdoor pavilion makes a great location for
family reunions.
Moro Bay State Park is located about 20 miles northeast
of El Dorado on U.S. 63 and overnight bookings can be
made at arkansasstateparks.com. p
