Thank you for sharing your story Nancy. I too am originally from West Virginia.

We came in on the river side, by fording the Buffalo in a shallow place. The hike up was so beautiful, so many mini falls and emerald green pools. We wanted to show off our new state to our out of state visitors,and the hollow did not disappoint. Photos do not do it justice.

We came to Arkansas in 1980 on vacation. I’m from West Virginia, and like you it was like home to me. We fell in love with the Buffalo and knew it was going to be home someday. We relocated from Florida to St. Joe Ar. in 1981. The little town of St. Joe is pretty close to the Buffalo. Our home was by Tomahawk Creek, we lived up Hwy 374 about 4 miles. The Tomahawk had some nice “swimmin’ holes” as well.
I now live close to Fayetteville and the White River, in Madison county but remain as close to the Buffalo as I can be. Anyone who ever gets a chance to visit the areas of Northwest to Central Arkansas should do so, it’s an experience you’ll remember forever.
