Cold Spring is a small fresh-water spring in Ouachita National Forest, east of Waldron, Arkansas in Scott County. It is located on the south side of County Road 93 (Cold Spring Road), a short way south of where the road crosses Sugar Creek. The spring is protected by a stone and concrete structure erected by a crew of the Civilian Conservation Corps in c. 1936 to prevent contamination of the spring and erosion of the surrounding hillside. Near the spring are two open-air concrete water holding areas, from which a stone culvert channels the water to Sugar Creek.[2] These CCC-built structures were listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1993.[1]
