Daisy State Park, State park near Lake Greeson, Arkansas, United States.
Daisy State Park is a 276-acre facility with forests at the foothills of the Ouachita Mountains in Arkansas. The park grounds surround a large lake and feature distinct areas for camping, picnicking, and hiking.
The park was created following the construction of the Greeson reservoir by the US Army Corps of Engineers in the mid-20th century. It was then developed and opened as one of Arkansas's early state parks.
Daisy State Park lies at the foot of the Ouachita Mountains, and its name comes from the old Daisy community that gave the area its post office before the lake was built. The park borders the Ouachita National Forest, and its timberlands are logged and regrown in cycles, so visitors see stands of pine at different ages. Lake Greeson, built by the US Army Corps of Engineers in 1950, is a 7,000-acre fishing lake.
The park has multiple marked trails and lake access points at different locations, making it easy to find the right spot for your activity. Restrooms and picnic areas are spread throughout the grounds so visitors can spend time comfortably.
Lake Greeson, the 7,000-acre reservoir the park borders, was built by the US Army Corps of Engineers in 1950; the park sits at 184 m above sea level, about 20 km from Glenwood.
