Lake Ouchita

[KG's Supra24]

Sounds like Mcdye has some north side of the lake experience. I have none. The areas he pointed out is where I was saying I don't know about depths, shorelines, etc. I'm not even sure on the time it would take to get from Lena to Brady. Brady to Shangri La is probably 15-20 mins in the wakeboat. (discloure, im kinda bad at timing on the lake, it might futher)

Shane, if you are a big golfer you might appreciate "The Village" courses. The village is one of the largest gated communities in the US (i believe) and has 8 or 9 golf courses, most of which are the best in the area. I'm not sure what the policy is on non land owners being able to play but I can check on it if you are interested.

Magic Springs (waterpark and rollercoasters, maybe live music) is in Hot Springs. I personally wouldn't come off the lake for it.

Hot Springs was a big town of organized crime. There are some things downtown that are sort of neat related to the history. There are ALOT of spa's around downtown that the women like. There is also a spa on the lake at Mt Harbor. Kids usually enjoy the "duck" rides. http://www.rideaduck.com/ducks/index.php?p=home

If you are looking to get wild there is a strip club that is BYOB ... could be dangerous
