Norfork Lake
Whether you put the Lake before Norfork or the Norfork before Lake, it's the same beautiful body of water!
Lake Norfork is a large man-made highland reservoir, distancing 42 miles in length and including 550 miles of shoreline, which is protected and owned by the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers. This natural Ozark forest shoreline keeps the land undeveloped, making for an immaculate view of the lake from the bluffs, as well as an equally breathtaking view of the forest from the water.
Lake Norfork is known by many for the clean, clear blue waters – so clear that scuba diving and spearfishing are some of it’s obscure water sports. Norfork is also well known for it’s plentiful supply of hybrid and striped bass, as well as large and small mouth bass, walleye, white bass, crappie, catfish, and bluegill. Beyond the fishing, Lake Norfork offers over 20,000 acres of public forested land, which is accessible during hunting season, offering locals and guests plentiful opportunities for hunting whitetail deer, wild turkeys, duck and more.
Come experience our “unspoiled, uncrowded, unforgettable” lake!
