Arkabutla-Lake
is a reservoir located on the Coldwater River in northern Mississippi. It's just a 30-minute drive from both Memphis, Tennessee and Tunica, Mississippi.Arkabutla Lake is a popular recreational lake, attracting over two million visitors each year. The water and land that makes up the Arkabutla Lake project includes 57,250 acres. A total of 37,700 acres of land are open to the public for hunting. There are three Class A campgrounds at the lake. They accommodate tents or RV s, and primitive camping is also available. Other things to do at Arkabutla Lake include boating, fishing, canoeing, kayaking, water-skiing, and picnicking. However, Arkabutla is especially known for its sailing. The winds are so consistently favorable, that it's been named the "best sailing lake east of the Mississippi River" by the Delta Sailing Association. Wind warning lights are visible from most areas on the lake, and these are in place to warn visitors of any potentially hazardous conditions on the lake. There are eight boat launch ramps around Arkabutla Lake. Ten day-use areas are located around the lake, as well. These scenic areas provide picnic tables, grills, ADA accessible picnic areas, playgrounds, drinking water, restrooms, nature trails and swimming beaches. Some have picnic shelters that can accommodate large groups for church socials, family reunions or other gatherings. Arkabutla Lake is an "alcohol free" environment and provides a peaceful, natural area that is very family friendly.
