Ozark national forest winter campground recommendations?

I'm driving down to Houston, Tx from Chicago. Ill be looking at camping in Ozark national forest from December 19th to December 23rd before heading to Houston. Im looking for a recommendation on where to camp here. Ill be using a RTT and my friend will be using a ground tent.

I'm looking to hike some scenic routes and fish while here.

I've looked at Buffalo point campground because it has an electric hookup but then i saw that its turned off for the winter.

Anyone have any recommendations? Electric hook up would be a plus but not required.

Thank you.

Budget friendly anniversary getaway

Our 23rd anniversary is coming up at the end of the year and while we have been unable to really getaway in the past, I'd really like to take at least a couple days to just be the two of us. We deserve it. We are looking for some budget conscious, romantic getaway ideas for two within the state. We live in central Arkansas and are open to pretty much the whole state. I love the idea of a little secluded cabin in the woods with a hot tub or stunning views. Pretty sure he's not too keen on that much seclusion. 🤣 I'm open to compromise and honestly wouldn't mind being close-ish to shopping, but can get away and back to seclusion easily.

Arkansas State University-MSE in School Counseling (Online Program)

Does anyone know anything about this program? I know it's not a CACREP program (it is CAEP accredited), but outside of that it seems too good to be true in terms of affordability, flexibility, and number of credits (48 vs. 60). I am a HS teacher looking to make a switch in a state that doesn't require a CACREP program and really don't want more student loans after having paid off my previous loans. Thank you!

This town is an Arkansas hidden gem for Christmas!

Chris and the Take A Road Trip crew hits the road and travels to Wilson, Arkansas, to visit a town that looks like it came straight from a Christmas movie. Join him at The Louis Hotel, The Wilson Café, and at Wilson Winter Wonderland.

Ozarks by elevation variances

I overlaid the elevation variances between the peaks and valleys (or hollers) on the most recent map of the Ozarks published last year. I figured y’all would enjoy

Yes, I know there are portions of the Ouachita here but I included them as they are shaded green and considered as a part of the Ozarks on this map.
