THE SPRING RIVER

The Spring River has been labeled as Arkansas' most dependable natural stream because of the over nine million gallons of 58-degree that flows every hour from its headwaters at Mammoth Spring in N.E. Arkansas.  Once this river of spring water flows over Dam #1 at Mammoth Spring State Park it is immediately joined by the Warm Fork River. This convergence  of warm and cool waters makes for one of the best trophy fishing and floating streams in all of Arkansas if not the world.

A diverse population of fish flourish in these cool, clear waters including trout, walleye, largemouth and smallmouth bass, channel catfish, redear sunfish, and tiger muskies just to name a few. Two state record fish have been pulled from the river, a 23lb 12oz Tiger Muskie and a 1lb 13oz Shadow Bass.  It's rumored that the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission measured a world record walleye on the Spring River during one of their annual fish surveys of the stream.

Spring River is one of the most accessible Arkansas rivers.  Lasseter, Cold Springs Access, Dam #3, and Bayou Access are all great public access points that are within 10 minutes of Mammoth Spring. Not only is Dam #3 Access a great place to start you canoeing or float trip, but it's a state fish hatchery that regularly stocks the river and keeps it teeming with fish. Further down river there are more public access points and several outfitters that can easily be accessed from Hwy 63 between Mammoth Spring and Hardy. 

You can't mention the Spring River without mentioning the wildlife.  The Spring River area is a Mecca for wildlife.  In and around these waters you find many species of animals and if you're a hunter you'll especially enjoy the quality populations of whitetail deer and wild turkey.  It is not uncommon for folks to see several deer grazing together in a field or a flock of turkeys making its way to its favorite watering hole.

The Spring River is crystal-clear, with long pools and whitewater falls framed by hardwood forest and rocky bluffs.  It has long been visited by fly-fishermen and floaters with many articles being written about its cool clear waters.  It is a great place just to get away from it all and enjoy peace and quiet and beautiful scenery.

MAMMOTH SPRING (the spring and park)

Mammoth Spring, Arkansas's largest spring and a National Natural Landmark, produces nine million gallons of chilly 58 degree water hourly. Emerging from the ground, near the Missouri border in north central Arkansas, it forms a scenic 10-acre lake and serves as the head waters for the Spring River providing plenty of fresh water year around.

The park facilities include an information center with exhibits on the area's rich history and natural resources, picnic sites, walking/jogging trail, ball field, children's playground, and a brand new covered pavilion for family reunions and large groups. The 1886 Frisco depot, at the park, will take you back to the early 1900s and just outside the train station you can take the guided Frisco caboose tour.

Along the walking path, around the lake, you can see remnants of the old mill and hydroelectric plant that reflect Mammoth Spring's history.

Next door to the park is the Mammoth Spring National Fish Hatchery, the nation's leading producer of smallmouth bass (and also a source for largemouth and striped bass, walleye, channel catfish, and redband trout). Visitors can take a self-guided tour of the hatchery, and also view one of the nicest public aquariums in the region.

MAMMOTH SPRING (the town)

Mammoth Spring (Not the plural Mammoth Springs) is home to Mammoth Spring State Park and the beautiful Spring River, an anglers paradise. Mammoth Spring is located in Fulton County, Arkansas approximately 20 miles north of Cherokee Village on the Missouri state line.

Originally known as "Head of River", the Mammoth Spring area was settled in 1836 by farmers. In 1850, the spring was discovered by geologist David Dale Owen and the town soon began promoting it's natural wonder as a tourist attraction. The spring also at one time generated power for a mill and the Missouri-Arkansas Power Company. In 1957, the park at Mammoth Spring became a state park, which helped boost the local economy and protect it's great natural wonder.

The town has a population of about 1,200 friendly full-time residents and many visitors and tourist each year. While most come enjoy the camping, fishing, and floating fun, some come for the art galleries, antique shopping and a quiet get-a-way.
