Paradise Lake

Paradise Lake is a 781-acre reservoir situated in the Ozarks of northwest Arkansas, USA. It was built in 1963 for the primary purpose of flood control, but its clear and clean waters provide a venue for various water sports, including boating, skiing, fishing, and swimming. The lake is surrounded by scenic mountain views and is home to various wildlife, including white-tailed deer, foxes, bobcats, and a variety of bird species. Several parks and campgrounds are available around the lake for recreational purposes, including Paradise Cove Marina and Resort, part of the Arkansas State Park system
