While cruisin' down old US-67, ya'll find an unexpected pit stop snuggled between the country towns of Curtis and Gum Springs, Arkansas. After 1936, this humble, historic gem was listed on the National Register of Historic Places. So what makes it unique? Picture this: age-old, semi-circular fieldstone retaining walls, broken up by half a dozen stone pillars, and a concrete bench that faces the road and begs you to breathe deep and take in all the sights. Folks, it's safe to say this old-school rest area, though outclassed by most modern ones, has stood the test of time, still standing proud and tall. Nowadays, it's a must-see pit stop for all the adventurers making their way along US-67 – don't skip it!
