Nestled within the beautiful Ouachita National Forest, Lake Ouachita is known for being the largest lake in Arkansas. This lovely lake has 970 miles of tree-line shores that wrap around the clear waters of the lake. Lake Ouachita houseboat rentals are the best way to experience this natural wonder. With more than 200 uninhabited islands ripe for exploration, you will never run out of things to do on this lake.
If you are going scuba diving in the lake, prepare to be amazed. The lake contains a rare, non-stinging jellyfish that lives within the fresh water. Bring along an underwater camera to really capture this rare event. Meanwhile, fishermen can enjoy plenty of opportunities for public fishing on Lake Ouachita. The lake is home to largemouth bass, striped bass, crappie, walleye, stripers and bream. Plus, this lake is ranked in the top 10 nationally for largemouth bass fishing. For a true adventure, check out the Geo-Float Trail. This trail around the lake includes all of the geologic features that make this lake famous.
From Lake Ouachita boat rentals, you can enjoy discovering the history of this historic lake. From 1945 to 1953, the Army Corps of Engineers constructed the Blakely Mountain Dam on the lake to create hydroelectric power. Constructed 231 feet tall, this dam can produce 75 megawatts of electricity. Since the construction of the dam, the lake has become the largest lake in Arkansas. It is placed near Lake Catherine and Lake Hamilton for the most convenient kayaking, boating and camping trips. During longer vacations, many visitors travel to the Hot Springs National Park to the south to enjoy the warm, thermal springs that well up from the earth.
While scuba divers can enjoy having 30 different dive spots, visitors can also enjoy swimming, wake boarding, water skiing and kayaking above the waves. An annual spear fishing tournament regularly draws in fishermen after June starts, but the hot springs are the place to go during the winter. The neighboring Hot Springs National Park offers a petting zoo, modern-style spas, seven ziplines, an alligator farm and the Gangster Museum of America.
American Houseboat Rentals offers the houseboats and destinations that you need. From compact houseboats to floating palaces, you can enjoy amenities like whirlpool spas, wet bars and water slides. Once you embark on your vacation, you can enjoy days spent napping under the gentle rays of the sun and nights spent gazing at the stars.
