For those arriving at Wilson's Creek with a sense of history, it is best to arrive early enough to also visit Pea Ridge National Battlefield, a few hours south of here. Be careful though . . .the attendants at Pea Ridge will lock off the battlefield tour road toward 5:00 p.m. or earlier, depending on the season. If you arrive early in the morning at one, it is easy to enjoy the other the same afternoon, a pair of important battlefields often taken in conjunction.
