The park offers event organizers a scenic natural backdrop, with rentable meeting rooms inside the visitor center accommodating gatherings of varying sizes, as well as a standard pavilion for outdoor group use. Surrounding facilities include 109 campsites, a riverside marina with boat rentals, and trailheads for hiking and mountain biking.

Jacksonport State Park sits at the confluence of the White and Black rivers just three miles north of Newport, Arkansas. The park preserves a significant chapter of Arkansas history — in the 1800s, Jacksonport was a thriving steamboat river port, and during the Civil War both Confederate and Union forces occupied the town due to its strategic location. Today, an 1872 courthouse stands restored on the grounds as a museum, and the Tunstall Riverwalk trail offers a half-mile path along the river's edge. The park offers several rentable event spaces for private gatherings, including a Visitor Center Meeting Room, a historic Courtroom, a covered pavilion, and a gazebo. Events are supported by the park's scenic riverside setting, picnic areas, and accessible facilities. The park's events team can be reached directly to discuss availability and event logistics.
