Little River County, County in southwestern Arkansas, United States.
Little River County is an administrative region in southwestern Arkansas that covers a substantial land area with several water bodies throughout. Highway routes including U.S. 59 and U.S. 71 run through the territory, connecting the settlements within its boundaries.
The territory was established on March 5, 1867, created from Sevier County during the Reconstruction period following the Civil War. It takes its name from the Little River that flows through the region.
The Two Rivers Museum in Ashdown displays regional artifacts, documents, and photographs that reflect how local communities developed over time. Visitors can explore the daily lives and stories of people who shaped the area through these collected objects and records.
The region is accessible via well-maintained federal highways and state roads that connect its communities. Visitors should plan their route in advance since settlements are spread across the county area, and road conditions are generally best during warmer months.
The territory is separated from other Arkansas counties entirely by water boundaries and shares borders only with Miller County across these waterways. This unusual geographic arrangement makes it one of the few isolated administrative regions in the state.
