    Beautiful architecture that takes your breath away. My favorite part was the ceiling. It was so mesmerizing. I could have looked at it all day.

    If you are close to the park, they have a Splash Pad for little kids! It has covered tables to sit and the kids love it. Lots of water features for the kids. No restrooms or changing area so be prepared. The park has restrooms but it’s a drive.

    Great tour of this uniquely shaped home. It’s only opened up right at each tour time. Stick around for the tour. It does need some repairs but is still a gem.

    Be sure to get there early! There were about 10 vendors and even though the hours posted on the app say it is open until 5:00 it really depends on the vendors. They stay until they run out or if it gets too hot. Unfortunately they were all packing up when we got there at 11:00 so I only got to shop a little. Wish it could’ve been more!

    There’s not whole lot to do in Texarkana but this park is a perfect place to relax for 1-2 hrs: two sand volleyball courts that are not crowded, decent playgrounds but to me the main attraction is the trail which especially now is absolutely beautiful with huge tree lines with beautiful orange colors right now.....
    there are benches along the trail but they really need to add a few trash cans as I you can see few trashes around the water.

    This museum is $5 and good for 45 minutes of history of Texarkana from the Caddo Indians, early explorers, railroads & city founding, clothing and toys from the 20th century, the Red River military base, and campaign buttons going back to W. McKinley. Highlights are a large collection of arrow heads and a piano from native son, Scott Joplin (with recordings of ragtime).

    This museum is inside the library at Texarkana College, so it’s a little awkward viewing the exhibits with students studying around you. But, aside from that it’s an excellent overview of the life of a remarkable man. Worth the visit...
