Favorable Lake of North Arkansas

22,000 Acres of Unspoiled Beauty
Norfork Lake feels boundless with 22,000 acres of water to explore along with a few sandy islands. Among its 550 miles of shoreline, you will find coves, inlets, creek bays, and branches that are a perfect spot to relax or angle a fish monster.
The US Army Corps of Engineers has been maintaining the lake as one of the cleanest in the nation since it was established in 1944.
Activity on the Pristine Waters
All kinds of watercraft cruise the lake, including pontoons, speed boats, sailboats, fishing boats, jet skis, and kayaks. With the boating activity comes water skiing, tubing, wakeboarding, and more.
Norfork Lake is rated as one of the best scuba diving locations in the country. Its crystal-clear waters are home to some unique treasures. Under the surface, you can explore sunken cars, buses, boats, a playground, or the more famous Henderson Bridge.
It is a prime fishing location for many freshwater fish species, but the bass is the main attraction with some striped bass reeled in at 40 pounds. Being such a responsible fishery, it is host to multiple fishing tournaments.
