How we rateKids can play on the playground at Merrisach Lake Campground and Day Use Park in Tichnor, Arkansas. Fishing, boating and birding give families other ways to spend time outdoors. For a birthday picnic, the park has two reservable group shelters, so you can arrange a gathering around playground time.

Our take
4/5A reservable picnic shelter and a playground give Merrisach Lake a useful combination for a birthday with extended family. Each of the two group shelters accommodates up to 75 guests, leaving room to include adults in the gathering. Picnicking provides a natural focus, with the playground adding a clear activity for children.
This suits families who enjoy organizing an outdoor celebration themselves. Choose the shelter through the reservation system and confirm the rules for your gathering before planning food or decorations. Fishing and birding could also shape the outing if those activities interest the birthday child.
