About Lake Norfork

Favorable Lake of North Arkansas

Norfork Lake is easily accessible from US Route 412 or State Route 101, each crossing over the lake to create the identical “Twin Bridges.” Around the lake, you will find marinas, stores, and hotels for your convenience.

Travel just minutes to Mountain Home for a wealth of amenities, including Baxter Regional Medical Center, Walmart Supercenter, Walgreens, shopping malls, and a great choice of restaurants. The Baxter County Airport is just 20 miles from the lake.

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.

Always Something to do

Whether it is fireworks, a swimming competition, sailing regatta, or fishing tournament, there is always an event happening on Norfork Lake. The 19 developed parks on the lake provide lake recreation to campers, hiking, horseback riding, biking, bird watching, and more.

Hunters will find their calling at Norfork Lake, where they can hunt the public lands for turkey, white-tailed deer, and game birds.
