| A series of boat lanes meander through timber, marshes & oxbow cutoffs, making Millwood Lake a "tree-filled" fishing haven. Famous for bass tournaments, this 29,260-acre lake abounds in largemouth, catfish & crappie. Spring & fall offer anglers great crappie fishing here, & catfish & bream fishing in summer. Bird watching is another popular activity here because of the lake's variety of year-round inhabitants, & wintering eagles.
Facilities include 116 campsites (113 including Preferred B, Standard B & three tent sites), picnic sites, a standard pavilion, self-guided nature trail & bicycle trail.
A marina offers souvenirs, gift items, groceries, bait, gas, fishing boats, canoes, pedal boats & hydro bikes. Slip rentals are available year round. [Marina: (870) 898-5334]
