Swimming Holes
Located behind the last camping spots in the campground is a great swimming hole. Follow the trail through the trees to the open gravel bar with lots of room for people to spread out and enjoy the water.

Ponca Low-Water Bridge
My favorite nearby hikes
This easy hike is 1 mile each way and there is a beautiful waterfall and overlook at the end to enjoy. You can also cross the waterfall and crawl across the bluff line to access below the waterfall. It is a fun area to explore as well.

Easy hike that is very popular. Expect other people but it is worth the crowds. Multiple areas to explore. There is a cave with a waterfall inside at the end of the trail. It is worth crawling back to enjoy it if you are up for the challenge!!
