★★★★★Gone.Awry.AdventuresWonderful and FREE archery range. The clean restrooms, raised shooting platform and plenty of shaded picnic tables makes this place a gem!
★★★★★Karen Reynolds⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Wonderful Experience at the Ozark Highlands Nature Center I had an amazing time visiting the AGFC J.B. and Johnelle Hunt Family Ozark Highlands Nature Center. The entire place was absolutely beautiful—peaceful, well‑designed, and full of things to explore. Even though the archery center wasn’t open during my visit, it didn’t take away from the experience at all. I’m already looking forward to going back when it is. This is a perfect spot for kids to learn about nature in a hands‑on, engaging way. The exhibits, trails, and interactive displays make it fun for all ages. Highly recommend for families, nature lovers, or anyone wanting a relaxing and educational outing.
★★★★★Alanna Gage (Lanna)This is a really awesome space. There is an indoor space that is mostly for kids to play and learn, yet is enjoyable for adults to experience as well. I really enjoyed walking the outdoor trail, as well as the archery area is fantastic. The marksman center was not open during our visit, but hope to check it out again soon.
★★★★★LAINA TUIFAOWe’ve lived in Springdale for 7yrs and last week was our FIRST TIME visiting the nature center. IM SO MAD WE TOOK SO LONG TO CHECK THIS PLACE OUT! I took my kids, my nieces and my nephews. They’re ranging in age from 14-20! And they all had fun! Super cool place, lots to look at and so much to learn! Only bummer part about our visit is that the archery center was closed. But we’ll definitely be back again!
★★★★★The Good Life NWABeautifully designed nature center with free indoor nature museum, an indoor children’s play area as well as an outdoor nature themed playground. There is a large free outdoor archery range with fun targets, an indoor marksmanship center with Saturday free indoor range access, and an outdoor picnic pavilion with walking trails. Easy access from the Razorback Greenway by bike and I-49 by car.
