'Winslow' is a small town in Northwest Arkansas.

==Get in== by traveling Interstate 540

==Get around== The best way to get to Winn Creek RV Park and Campground is to take I-540. (You will find the park located just 13.5 miles S. of Fayetteville Arkansas in a green valley in the foothills of the Boston Mountains. It is backed by a hillside of native trees and bordered by a seasonal creek which runs 9-10 months per year.) While traveling I-540 take Exit 53 - West Fork. Drive downhill Eastward for 1/2 mile toward the small town of West Fork. At the bottom of the hill see a directional arrow pointing right. Veer right at that sign and go 2 block to a 4-way stop. Drive straight through the 4-way stop. (Do not turn on Hwy 170). You'll be on McKnight St. Stay on McKnight all the way to the parks entrance passing 2 more logo signs along the way. It is 3.5 miles from the 4-way stop to the park's gate.

Once you park at Winn Creek RV Park you can unhitch your vehicle or bike. You can go into Fayetteville, Arkansas via a shortcut 1 mile away onto Hwy. 71 or your can retrace back to I-540. There is a bridge at this shortcut to Hwy. 71 (The Woolsey Bridge) which is closed to RV's but is open to pickup trucks cars or smaller vehicles.

==See== Winn Creek RV Park is close enough to dart away for a Razorback Game at the University of Arkansas or a day of sightseeing area attractions. Return for a campfire and bedtime in the countryside.

Some things nearby: Riverside Park in West Fork, Arkansas w offers swimming, picnic pavillions, hiking trails, and fishing. There is a garden market during the harvest season. The Drake Airfield at nearby Greenland is the home of The Arkansas Air Museum and has vintage planes and some scheduled air shows.

Headquarters House and Museum in Fayetteville house leaders of both the North and South during the Civil War and you can still see some bullit holes to prove it. Also, don't miss Prarie Grove Battleground and Museum.

Many area fairs are held in surrounding towns.

In Fayetteville don't miss the many sports events of the Arkansas Razorbacks. Walton Arts Center and Downtown Dickson Street offer clubs, restaurants and entertainment.
