RV Rental Heber Springs, Arkansas

Explore Heber Springs, Arkansas in an RVshare RV Rental

Originally named Sugar Loaf, Heber Springs was settled and founded by Max Frauenthal in the 1830s. In 1910, the name was changed to Heber Springs after the prominent Dr. Heber Jones and the sulfur springs in the area. The U.S. Corps of Engineers completed a man-made lake in 1963, and President John F. Kennedy dedicated it in October of that year. Explore Spring Park with its flowing mineral springs and the historic downtown that has a museum, antique shops, art galleries, and Eagle Bank Park.

Visit Greers Ferry Lake, which is popular for its fishing and water activities. The lake is a great place to go camping and has world-class resorts that overlook the lake. Go fishing in the Little Red River for your chance to catch a huge brown trout.

Take the family to Sandy Beach, which is a man-made beach in downtown Heber Springs. The beach hosts the annual cardboard races and fireworks show every Fourth of July. With all the great water events and activities available, it’s no surprise that Heber Springs is called the “beautiful lake town.”
