Cruising north on Pulaski County Road 85—better known as Col. Maynard Road—you’ll find a quick but scenic escape just east of North Little Rock, Arkansas. This two-mile stretch begins at Willow Beach Park, a quiet spot along the Arkansas River that’s perfect for fishing, picnicking, or just soaking up river views. As we head north, Col. Maynard Rd winds gently through a mix of open land, riverside woodlands, and the occasional rural home, making it a peaceful transition from the park setting. The road wraps up at the intersection with U.S. 165, where local traffic heads toward Scott or swings west for easy access back into North Little Rock. While short, this drive offers a glimpse of the natural beauty right on the city’s edge—ideal for anyone looking to detour away from the main highways for a bit of fresh air.
