It is the location of (or is the nearest community to) Bigelow Rosenwald School, which is located at the junction of Arkansas Highway 60 and Bethel AME Road and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.The origin of the name Toad Suck is disputed. Some believe that it received the name when idle rivermen would congregate at the local tavern where they would "suck on the bottle 'til they swell up like toads", while others believe it is a corruption of a French phrase meaning "a narrow channel in the river." Toad Suck has frequently been noted on lists of unusual place names.The community lent its name to the Toad Suck Ferry Lock and Dam on the Arkansas River.

Cadron Creek is a stream in the U.S. state of Arkansas. It originates in central Cleburne County, southeast of Pearson and flows west-southwest past Quitman, where it enters Van Buren County briefly then into Faulkner County just north of the town of Guy. Past Twin Groves the stream turns more southerly. Downstream from Mallettown, the creek forms the boundary between Faulkner and Conway County. Ultimately it flows into the Arkansas River just west of the city of Conway. Interstate 40 crosses it at the lower reaches of the creek just above the confluence with the Arkansas River. Cadron Creek most likely was named after Charles Cadron, a Canadian trader.According to statistics from the USGS station at Guy, Arkansas, Cadron Creek's mean annual discharge is approximately 271 cubic feet per second. However, when you add the discharge of one of its largest tributaries, East Fork Cadron Creek (measured at Enola, Arkansas), which flows downstream from Guy, its discharge is approximately 449 cubic feet per second.
