Welcome to Greers Ferry Lake & Little Red River...
The Greers Ferry Lake
and Little Red river area of Arkansas offers exceptional
opportunities to explore the great out-of-doors. Whether your tastes
run to fishing, boating and other fun on the water or golfing,
hiking, biking and hunting, this is a place where you can do it all.
Our playground extends from the Ozark foothills to the edge of the
delta. Here, you can cast for bass or trout one day and hit the duck
blinds the next. In season, of course.
This is one of the few
places in the country where it’s possible to fish for largemouth
bass, white bass hybrids, walleye and trout all in the same day.
Yes, that’s pushing it, but it is possible for the adventurous and
energetic angler.

Time for Spring
But, there’s no rush.
Take it easy. Relax and fish to your heart’s
content. You might even land a trophy if you fish
long enough. After all, Greers Ferry Lake still
holds the world record for walleye and hybrid
striper. And that big old German brown trout caught
on the Little Red River is still the world-champion.
Splash and swim in sun-kissed Greers Ferry Lake.
There’s lots of room to ski and make waves. Boaters,
sail boaters, water-skiers, house boaters, scuba
divers and the party barge folks all get along
because they seldom cross paths in this 40,000-acre
expanse of sparkling clear water. And, all around
the lake are resorts, bed-and-breakfast inns,
marinas, shopping and woodsy green spaces for
camping and hiking.
Our Ozark foothills golf courses offer some great
ups and downs. You’ll find some gorgeous and
challenging island layouts as well. Over a canyon or
over water, your tee shot is guaranteed some
dramatic air time.

The Greers Ferry Lake and Little Red River area is also a place that you will want to check out if you’re planning to retire or relocate your family in the near future. Excellent medical care, good schools, low crime and low taxes - our host communities offer all the right stuff.
The
Greers Ferry Lake and Little Red
River area extends east ward to
meet the Delta and more good
things for sportsmen. White
County is almost equally divided
between Ozark foothills and
White River bottomland. Two of
the finest wildlife refuges in
the United States are located
here. Mallards flock in large
numbers to the
Henry Gray/Hurricane Lake
Wildlife Refuge and to the
Bald Knob National Wildlife
Refuge. Both refuges are
near the City of Bald Knob. The
Rex Hancock/Black Swamp Wildlife
Management Area
in Woodruff County also offers
excellent waterfowl hunting.
Much of the new Cache River
National Wildlife Refuge now
under development.
Augusta,
McCrory, and Cotton Plant in
Woodruff County offer
accommodations and guides for
waterfowl hunters.
