Table Rock Lake is a U.S. Army Corps of Engineers lake that confines the White River and lies mostly in Missouri along the Arkansas border. The river was impounded in 1959 and offers many recreational opportunities as well as beautiful scenery.

The lake boasts over 43,000 surface acres and more than 800 miles of shoreline. Due to the rocky terrain along most of the watershed, the run-off is free of silt, giving us a clear-water lake. It is not uncommon to see depths of 15 ft. The absence of slow moving or standing water also explains the noticeable lack of mosquitoes in our area.

Big Creek Resort is located Approximately 30 miles from the dam, near the center portion of the lake. This allows for beautiful ski water and fantastic boating opportunities. Many times the water is like a mirror. We entertain many bare foot skiers due to the fine skiing conditions found in the Big Creek Arm of the lake.

The basin of the lake was not cleared before impoundment. Therefore there is still standing timber in the coves and along the shoreline. The depth of the lake however makes the middle of the lake perfect for skiing and boating. At normal lake levels the lake is 115 ft. deep in the middle of the Big Creek Arm.

As you travel our lake you will be treated to vistas of towering bluffs, gentle gravel bars, and area wild life. Many people enjoy a picnic on the gravel bars, collecting drift wood or rocks. Come and enjoy.
