Collier Homestead preserves the story of Solomon “Sod” Collier and his family, who settled here in 1932 under the Homestead Act of 1862. They built a cabin, cultivated the land, and earned title to 40 acres by 1937. It was one of the last prosperous homesteads along the Buffalo River. Today, the restored site is a chance to revisit Ozark history, with interpretive signs and original structures from early 20th-century life.
