Lake Chicot is situated in a grove of majestic wild pecans and ringed with cypress trees standing literally “up to their knees” in water along the nations’s largest natural oxbow remnant, a cutoff of the mighty Mississippi.
At the end of September we visited Lake Chicot State Park. If you find yourself near Lake Village, Arkansas, stop in at this beautiful state park and spend a few days enjoying Lake Chicot. We envision stopping here again!
Scenes from our visit!




I am so behind in posting. I hope to catch up, now that things have settled down! During the last few weeks we have visited family in Mississippi, attended a family wedding in Florida and visited with friends in Georgia. Tonight, I write this from a Florida State Park in Sebring, Florida called Highlands Hammock.
Cute pics of the bandit!
Hi Judy! We were playing peek-a-boo – too cute!
Little Rocky Raccoon is soooo cute!! See ya soon!
Hey lady! Rocky was too cute; pretty young I think! So looking forward to our next adventure!!
I agree Sheila…the little raccoon peeping from behind the tree is priceless!
Hi Gay! Great to hear from you, hope all is going well! Thinking of you both all the time!
Love the raccoon, too. What a cutie. The pictures with the egret seem so peaceful.
Hi Janell! Thanks so much for mentioning the Egret “art” photos. He was pretty far away, but the calm lake and evening light made for sone “artsy” photos! Hope you are doing well!!
I couldn’t believe it when I saw the title of this post. We will be near Lake Chicot in a few days and may be able to check it out. It’s easy to get behind on posts when you are on the road having fun! Enjoy Florida.
