About Panther Bay Park
Overview
Panther Bay is conveniently located between the Highway 62 and 101 bridges allowing quick and easy access to several hiking trails, marinas, and boat ramps.
Recreation
Hiking trails in the area lead nature observers and photographers to picturesque overlooks of the Ozarks. A wide array of fresh water game fish are found in the lake, which is fed by the North Fork River and its tributaries. Bass, walleye, crappie, bream and catfish all make their home here.
Facilities
The campground offers 15 campsites, all with electric hookups and water available for filling holding tanks.
Panther Bay Marina and several boat ramps are located nearby to provide easy access to the recreational activities that Norfork Lake has to offer.
Natural Features
Norfork Lake covers 22,000 acres with 550 miles of shoreline. Densely wooded hills and hollows surround the lake in the Ozark Mountains. The North Fork River feeds into the lake, and beyond the dam, extends on to connect with the White River.
Nearby Attractions
Hike the Robinson Point National Recreation Trail for wonderful views of the Ozarks.
Just south of the lake, The Ozark National Forest spans 1.2 million acres.
Getting there
From Mountain Home, AR, travel approximately 10 miles east on US 412/62. The entrance to the campground will be on the left just before you cross the 62 bridge. Follow signs into campground.
