MILLWOOD STATE PARK
A series of boat lanes meander through timber, marshes, and oxbow cutoffs making Millwood Lake a "tree-filled" fishing haven. Famous for bass tournaments, this 29,260-acre lake abounds in largemouth, catfish and crappie. Spring and fall offer anglers great crappie fishing here, and catfish and bream fishing in summer. Bird watching is another popular activity here because of the lake's variety of year-round inhabitants, and wintering eagles.
A marina offers souvenirs, gift items, groceries, bait, gas, fishing boats, canoes, pedal boats and hydro bikes. Slip rentals are available year round. [Marina: (870) 898-5334
