Welcome to
Daisy State Park , one of 52 beautiful,
historic state parks, each with their own special mission. The
other thing they each have is a geocache. This adventure is based

you will need to find the final, 53rd cache located somewhere in
the state. Just download the
clue sheet and start your adventure. We

throughout the world!
In this scenic setting in the foothills of the Ouachita Mountain,
Lake Greeson, the Little Missouri River, and
Daisy State Park make a winning combination for
outdoor enthusiasts. Lake Greeson, 7,000 acres of clear water and
mountain scenery, delights water enthusiasts. Catches of black and
white bass, stripers, crappie, catfish, and bluegill account for
its popularity with anglers. The Little Missouri joins four other
popular float streams that offer challenging spring and early
summer trout fishing. Situated on Lake Greeson's shore, Daisy State
Park is the perfect camp for enjoying this area's many outdoor
recreational opportunities. Park facilities include 103 campsites
(26 Class A, 56 Class B, and 21 Tent sites); picnic areas, a
standard pavilion (screened) with restrooms, launch ramps, hiking
trails, a playground, and a motorcycle/mountain bike/ATV
trail.
All terrain vehicle (ATV) enthusiasts can enjoy the challenging
31-mile Bear Creek Motorcycle Trail on Lake Greeson. The trail
begins at Daisy State Park (situated on the north shore of the
lake) and travels east approximately 1.5 miles on park property,
then changes to U.S. Army Corps of Engineers lands and travels
along the eastern shoreline of the lake to Laurel Creek Recreation
Area. ATV's, mountain bikes, dirt bikes and hikers can utilize this
multi-use trail that is open throughout the year. Trail maps are
available at the Daisy State Park visitor center or the U.S. Army
Corps of Engineers resource manager's office for Lake Greeson at
Murfreesboro.
[NOTE: ATV's cannot be driven on roads within Daisy State Park;
however, a parking lot with sufficient space for trailers is
provided in the park at the trail head. As you enter the state park
from U.S. 70, look for the first parking lot on the left just past
the park entrance sign.]
