About Conway Cemetery State Park

James S. Conway, the first governor of Arkansas, is buried here alongside his wife Mary J. Conway, and their gravesite forms the reason this 11.5-acre park exists. The grounds hold no recreational or visitor amenities, making the cemetery itself the sole focus of the property.

Hours, fees, camping, reservations and closures are set by the park and change often. Check the official park site before you go.
