I am a nature lover and self-proclaimed foodie wrapped in one package. In my previous life, I was an Accountant, but numbers were boring and writing is the only thing that fuels my soul. So, I write because it's my freedom...it brings me joy. When I'm not writing dope articles for OnlyInYourState, I am writing and editing articles for my online blog on Medium.com. Or, when I get the chance, I am off on a trip with my family chasing waterfalls, or simply exploring the great outdoors. My mantra is to always find the best part of every day and bask in it.
It’s true that Arkansas is a landlocked state, and technically, we don’t have beaches. But what we do have are some of the most pristine lakes in the country, and some even rival the beaches on the coast. That is especially true for Lake Ouachita, which is one of the clearest lakes in the U.S. And on this lake, you’ll find the Joplin Recreation Area. It’s home to a lesser-known beachfront getaway in Arkansas that will make your Summer complete. No need to hop on a plane to get to the ocean, instead, drive to Mount Ida and enjoy a day of fun in the sun.
