Nestled within the ten acres of LakeShore Properties, LakeShore Motel sprawls along the banks of beautiful Lake Chicot in the Arkansas Delta. From your door, a lush carpet of grass ushers you to water’s edge where relaxation includes fishing, picnicing and watching exquisite sunsets as night falls across the lake.
At 20 miles in length and a former main channel of the Mississippi River, Lake Chicot holds the distinction as the largest oxbow lake in North America and Arkansas’s largest natural lake. It’s now a protected sporting area for outdoor enthusiasts and is famous nationwide for fantastic catches of bream, crappie, bass and catfish. Fishermen from all over the country come to try their luck among the quiet coves of this bayou-like haven. Lurking along the high ground and hidden in the swamps of this region are raccoon, mink, bobcat, white-tailed deer, wild turkey and many species of waterfowl.
A 30-mile levee tour, acclaimed by National Geographic, features something for everyone with waterfowl, the remains of a Native American mound, a site where river pirates once roamed and a visit to the Lake Chicot Pumping Plant.
