The Natural State is, pardon the pun, a natural beauty. And Buffalo National River is truly one of its crown jewels. Buffalo National River flows freely for 153 miles through upper Arkansas, beginning in the Boston Mountains and ending in the White River. It’s a beautiful place that you’ll really want to stop and savor. And at Buffalo Point Concessions, that’s exactly what diners get to do. The Buffalo National River’s only restaurant, Buffalo Point Concessions is a delightful little cabin-turned-diner that boasts a truly one-of-a-kind view in Arkansas.

Please note, Buffalo Point Concessions is temporarily closed.

Established in 1972 as America's First National River, this beautiful body of water is one of the last remaining undammed rivers in the lower 48 states.
