Lake Ouachita State Park

The Lake Ouachita State Park was created on paper in 1955, No more work at the park was done until 1965. Some of the 1930s-era have been renovated, but most park structures were built during the early 1970s. Park improvements in the early 1990s included a new visitors’ center, restaurant, cabins, and additional campsites. Other park facilities include a marina, swimming area, hiking trails, two boat ramps, and interpretive exhibits at the springs. The park also provides eagle tours from November 1 to March 1, when the birds are wintering in the area.
