About Dodson
Set along Highway 167 in Winn Parish, Dodson is a quiet, rural village surrounded by north Louisiana pine hills. It started out as a busy sawmill and railroad hub, but today it moves at a much slower, relaxed pace. Neighbors rely on local fire and municipal services, Winn Parish schools, and an easy drive to nearby towns for everyday shopping. The community is also home to Doc Cole Mountain, the parish’s only named hill, rising right near the old railroad line.
