Lake History
Factoid: Cradled between the Ouachita and Ozark Mountains, Nimrod Lake is popular with fishermen and
hunters alike. Six parks nestled along the lake provide modern camping facilities and an
opportunity to relax amid the groves of tall, sweet-scented pines. Nimrod is conveniently
located adjacent to State Highway 7, a National Scenic Byway and other nearby points of
interest like Petit Jean State Park, Mount Nebo State Park, and Hot Springs National Park.
